Me And You Could Write A Bad Romance

How cool is it that someone took the best part of that song and put it on a shirt?! (the video for Bad Romance kicks ass by the way. if you haven't seen it you need to).

I love this photo of me. I found it again while I was going through my iPhone's pic library. I had forgotten about it. I think I like it because it makes me look mysterious.

If

No Use

Oh to be a useless celeb. I wonder what that would be like. It's probably something like a semi-charmed existence.

useless celebrity: (n) These are people who are only famous because either they were born super rich or for being related to or friends with someone who is famous. They have all the resources and connections to set the world on fire and do great things to help others and society. However, 99% they choose to party and pose for the paparazzi.

Examples: Perez Hilton, Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton, etc

Good Advice

SL: Not For The Faint Of Heart Or Occasional Gamer

I'm a true gamer. The SIMS, JoJo's Fashion Shows, Sorority Life, and anything on Game Cube are my drugs of choice. I can play non-stop for hours. I totally go into my zone and I'm untouchable. Lately, I have been spending every free second on Sorority Life. It's the ultimate fashion/bitch game. I'm addicted and I can't get enough of it. You get to attack other people's (mainly females) avatars, leave weird comments, and collect awesome glam (cars, cool outfits, boyfriends, accessories, etc) along the way. The point of the game is to be the top chick on campus by having a big sorority house, lots of limited edition glam, good stats, bounty hunting girls off the burnlist, and forming alliances. I bought like $35 worth of brownie points the other day just so I could buy some cool glam. I paid real money for fake clothes. How gnarly is that?! You can earn bp's too but it takes forever and a day lol. I need SL rehab right about now. Just thought I'd let you know that.

Oh yeah, as long as I can still wear my pearls and chic cocktail dresses I'm good. We all know it may be a man's world but it's run by women;)

And this one goes out to all my peeps feeling imperfect, unpretty, less than good enough, or just, lonely, or just plain unlovable.

Always remember that you ARE beautiful.

Trash The Media

I've often heard people describe the media as a "necessary evil." I definitely see where the evil part comes in, but not the former. Without the mass media to divide our nation and make us hate other members of the human race, people would be more likely to discard biases and take a chance at loving in a new way. I have begun a boycott of my own against television and radio newscasts and commentary talk shows. The reason is because they just bend the facts to make it whatever they need it to be to serve their purpose. In other words, the want people to see and believe half truths and whole lies. With the media leading our nation instead of love, we will never get past other evils such as racism, ageism, homophobia, etc. The answer is simple to me, throw out the media to break its hold on us and then we will be able to start a true healing process. So I hope others will follow my example and throw the media's garbage out like the trash it is. Give love a chance and trash them like they trash talk morals, values, honesty, and integrity. Trash the media.

And while I don't think that anyone ever truly figures out the real meaning of and the best way to live it, I think that this man was one of the few who are lucky enough to come really close.

Sweet Cat Looking For Forever Home

I am a volunteer at a cat protection society here in my hometown. An animal protection society is different from a regular shelter because no animal is ever put down because no one has adopted it, or because of overcrowding. In other words, protection means it's a no kill shelter. I love volunteering here and getting to give back to animals that I love. I'm a cat person. And yes, I probably will be that creepy cat lady when I'm old lol. Anyways, I just wanted to post a picture of a sweet female senior kitty (12-15 years old) that needs a home. She's gorgeous and very friendly. She is also spayed and up to date on all her vaccines. Her owner recently passed away so she is in need of a good home. If you have room in your heart and your home for this gal then please contact Melanie at 1-407-222-8133.

Dare To Believe

Watching the news and shows like Forensic Files, City Confidential, etc. really gets to me and makes me sad. The things that people can do to each other is heartbreaking. Sometimes I look around at all the horrors of humanity and think, "What's the point of civilization?" But then, I remember these words:

“In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. In a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort. In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. And in a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe.”-Michael Jackson

Just An Ordinary Girl

I'm just an ordinary girl. Sometimes I'm lazy. I get bored. I get scared. I feel ignored. I feel happy; I get silly. I choke on my own words. I make wishes. I have dreams, and I still want to believe anything can happen in this world, for an ordinary girl.

Myspace Is Dead

I always get a lot of questions about myself and my life from my little submit box on my blog, or from people on Twitter. They're always complaining that I don't bear enough of myself on here. Well, I got news for you, nothing's going to change. I write about anything and everything I want. A blog isn't for the whole world to know everything about your life. I share what I wanna share and keep private what I wanna keep private. It's just another fun way for me to connect with people from a distance-just how I like it:) But I will take one of these weird little Myspace surveys with useless crap on it so maybe you can maybe feel like you me just a tad bit more. Just because Myspace is dead and outdated, doesn't mean we still can't have a little fun with these old bulletin surveys (God knows there are thousands of them). Well, here goes nothing.

If I Ever Write A Rock Band Song These Would Totally Be Part Of The Lyrics

I saw you last night. You were dancing in my head. -Me

Paradise

I saw this picture and at 3:30 in the morning I instantly had the urge to go jump in my car and drive to the nearest beach (an hour and a half away). Being responsible does suck so much of the time. :(

Fad Monster

I'm a girl who like to march to the beat of my own drum in life. I make my own rules when it comes to fashion as well. And as you can imagine, I usually don't get involved in the latest trends or fads. But I must say, like the slap bracelets of the 90's, these little silly band bracelets are pretty cool, and I couldn't resist wanting some. I finally scored a few packs at the Kangaroo down from my house. I love how no matter how many times you wear them they always keep their cool shapes. It's brilliant! These have become pretty popular, and whoever came up with them is making a fortune. Lol, I wonder what they will come up with next.

I have fairytale, Christian, and rockstar silly bands all mixed in with each other in this pic. My faves would have to be the crosses, the dove, green music note, and pink fairy. Oh, I just mixed in the little cake, cupcake, and bunny erasers at the top because I thought they would look cute in the picture:)

I'm So Not A Techie

Today is the day...that I figure out how to use my scanner. I have to if I am ever going to be able to get my latest dance portraits on my computer. They're really rocking and I want one of them to be my Facebook and Twitter avi. It's way past time for a new updated one. Maybe I'll get one of those infamous For Dummies Books to help me...blah.

You are a sell out but you couldn't even do that right

Wow. Basketball isn't just a game to some people. But I guess any game where hundreds of millions of dollars are on the line can never really be called "just a game." However, to people like Mr. Gilbert and thousands of Lebron jersey-burning fans bball is a religion. I guess this is what happens when their god chooses another team over them.












Open Letter to Fans from Cavaliers Majority Owner Dan Gilbert

Dear Cleveland, All Of Northeast Ohio and Cleveland Cavaliers Supporters Wherever You May Be Tonight;

As you now know, our former hero, who grew up in the very region that he deserted this evening, is no longer a Cleveland Cavalier.

This was announced with a several day, narcissistic, self-promotional build-up culminating with a national TV special of his "decision" unlike anything ever "witnessed" in the history of sports and probably the history of entertainment.

Clearly, this is bitterly disappointing to all of us.

The good news is that the ownership team and the rest of the hard-working, loyal, and driven staff over here at your hometown Cavaliers have not betrayed you nor NEVER will betray you.

There is so much more to tell you about the events of the recent past and our more than exciting future. Over the next several days and weeks, we will be communicating much of that to you.

You simply don't deserve this kind of cowardly betrayal.

You have given so much and deserve so much more.

In the meantime, I want to make one statement to you tonight:

"I PERSONALLY GUARANTEE THAT THE CLEVELAND CAVALIERS WILL WIN AN NBA CHAMPIONSHIP BEFORE THE SELF-TITLED FORMER ‘KING’ WINS ONE"

You can take it to the bank.

If you thought we were motivated before tonight to bring the hardware to Cleveland, I can tell you that this shameful display of selfishness and betrayal by one of our very own has shifted our "motivation" to previously unknown and previously never experienced levels.

Some people think they should go to heaven but NOT have to die to get there.

Sorry, but that's simply not how it works.

This shocking act of disloyalty from our home grown "chosen one" sends the exact opposite lesson of what we would want our children to learn. And "who" we would want them to grow-up to become.

But the good news is that this heartless and callous action can only serve as the antidote to the so-called "curse" on Cleveland, Ohio.

The self-declared former "King" will be taking the "curse" with him down south. And until he does "right" by Cleveland and Ohio, James (and the town where he plays) will unfortunately own this dreaded spell and bad karma.

Just watch.

Sleep well, Cleveland.

Tomorrow is a new and much brighter day....

I PROMISE you that our energy, focus, capital, knowledge and experience will be directed at one thing and one thing only:

DELIVERING YOU the championship you have long deserved and is long overdue....


Dan Gilbert
Majority Owner
Cleveland Cavaliers

I Won't Grow Up

Isn't it strange how once you hit a certain age you begin to wish you were younger again, while people who are young seem to always wish to be older. When we're 10 we can't wait to be a teenager. When we finally hit 13 we are wishing to be 16 so we can drive.

When you're 16 you wish to be 18 so you can graduate school, smoke, vote, be legally considered "grown" and gain access to all the coolest clubs and what-not. Of course it's only natural for an 18 year old to already be planning their big 21st birthday bash.

Then there's the other side of this coin, people who are fast approaching 30, 40, 50, etc. are wishing that they were younger again. Many of these people spend big money and waste so much time trying to recapture the essence of their heydays.

I was just thinking how sad it is that people can wish their life away. My advice to both types of people: Simply enjoy living your life, and ignore father time and all the other bullshit.

I Can Relate

A Dancer's Post

And just so you know, I am going absolutely crazy without dance. Dancing is my outlet; it allows me to feel free. I can't wait until all my classes start up again in September. Because I need my outlet. I need my shot of happy-because I am really having the worst withdrawal. Damn you summer break.

Word To The Wise

Bitch, I wear the crown in this bitch. Take it or leave it.

And if you don't stop effing with me, I'll fuck you up and then put your skank-ass in the burn book.

disclaimer:I'm not talking to or about anybody here. I just found these old graphics on my computer and decided to use them one last time before I threw them into the recycling bin.

How Did This Happen

I'll admit that the whole Justin Bieber craze, as well as this Twilight Obsession is pretty damn mind-boggling to me. But being a former follower of the NSYNC and Backstreet Boy crazes of the late 90's and early 2000's, I do know that crazes/fads like these are either something you get (meaning you're a fan)or you're standing on the sidelines looking on going, "What the fuck?"

So with that being said, I'm not even going to ask "Why?" or even try to understand it anymore. I am just going to let all you fans enjoy these photos:

Let Freedom Ring

Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom, must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it. ~Thomas Paine

There is nothing wrong with America that cannot be cured by what is right with America. ~William J. Clinton

Learned It From The Radio Mom

I was traveling down CR 42 in my car and the song "Sweet Dreams" by Eurythmics came on. And as I was listening to the lyrics I started thinking how true these lyrics are:


Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused


People in the world are really divided into two groups. Either you're one of the ones who are getting your ass handed to you on a daily basis while you're chomping at the bit to try to make a dollar and move on up like the Jeffersons (The ones who are being abused and used. This is the majority of society). Or you're at the top of the societal food chain so to speak, and you're helping to oppress others. Wow, and who says you can't learn anything valuable from the radio. There's a Sociology lesson right there.

Dress Me Down

I know it's only July, but I am a firm believer that you can never start on a project too early or be too prepared. Being a firm believer of that doctrine, I have already started looking for my Halloween Costume. Growing up in a religious family that didn't celebrate Halloween has of course made me want to celebrate even more. Yay for heathenistic debauchery! Lol, just kidding. In all honesty, I am down for any holiday/reason that lets me act like an idiot, dress-up strangely and wear my weight in make-up. Here's the costume I'm thinking about so far. Let me know what you think.

Hella, Tickle My Funny Bone

Oh No!!!! Run Ms. Strawberry and Ms. Pear. The evil banana wants some of your fruit goodies.

And this cracks me. This is the real deal lol. He needs his own infomercial and diet named after him. http://www.itastesound.com/ has tons more funny comics like this. You gotta see 'em!

You Better Believe It

One day I am going to be so

Nice Packaging

Guess what this is.














Go on, guess. Just do it. Guess even though you'll probably never guess it in a million minutes. But guess anyways just for the heck of it. I'll give you some guessing time and you can hum the Jeopardy thinking music yourself....................................................................................................... You give up???


Why it's lip balm of course!
And for only $4.99 (I personally think that 5 bucks is too much to pay for lip balm, but hey, to each his/her own) you can have your very own little ball looking lip balm by Twist and Shout . You gotta admit the wrapping is pretty snazzy. They say presentation is everything, right? I found this little wonder at http://www.scentaddict.com/ And I found this site because I was playing Sorority Life on Facebook. It was in the little annoying sidebox on the right where businesses and websites pay to advertise on Facebook. I was bored and kinda curious from the name of the site so I clicked. And wallah!! (I guess those advertisements might work better than I thought)

















Something I thought was super awesome was these little scent lockets that they sell. It's jewelry and perfume all in one. Very functional. The little bottle of perfume is inside the locket, and you just pull the little silver loop where the black cord goes through up and dab some perfume on. Then just deposit the wand back in the top of the locket when you're done. They're $25.99. Not too bad for a locket and perfume. My birthday's coming up soon, so who knows, maybe a scent locket with a sexy green fairy on the front is in my near future.

The World Never Weighed More

And right now, at this point in my life, I can totally relate to how this guy must feel.
