Applause
I like listening to songs live.. It sounds more real and you can always tell who’s got real talent and who doesn’t.
Also, in the beginning when the music starts to play for two seconds, the crowd starts roaring.. I love that. They represent how I feel when a song I like comes on. Good deal. Goodnight.
If Only...
“Hold on to wat u got and cherish it cuz not everyone is that fortunate enough to show emotion to those who qualify..” A friend of mine had this on Facebook and minus the ebonics, it sounded pretty good to me. Lately, I’ve been thinking.. If that last part applies to me. If only people could tell the one they really care for how they feel. If only life wasn’t so...
The Future..
..Will Soon Be A Thing of the Past.
Tomorrow marks the start of a new journey. I will be in a different town, far away from everyone I know. I am not so nervous about not knowing anyone than I am about what I will do with my time there. I will only be there for 4 months but I feel a real sense of urgency to make the most of my experience. This internship will either cement my career in politics...
When Good Ideas Turn Bad...
Since I’ve been on vacation, I’ve been re-reading Ragtime because it is one of my favorite books. I love how everything is connected within the book. All of the characters are connected and their actions affect future events. Yet, when people act, they are not aware of how their actions can affect subsequent events. After reading the book, I started to see and realize this occurs often...
Reading & Writing
Lately, aside from building my amazing bicycle.. All I want to do is read and write. I like getting lost in the reading and being able to forget everything. It takes me back to my childhood years when I used to do this all the time. I wonder what happened between then and now. I wonder when I decided to give up the hobbies I loved to sit around and do nothing. (And not that I do nothing, but that...
Lullaby.. Goodnight
I was thinking… Of the moon and the stars / and wherever you are / If you were looking at the sky / with your head held high / thinking of me like I was thinking of you. / Wondering if it could be true.. / Holding out as we wait / Hoping it would be fate / That one day our hearts might skip a beat / When our eyes would meet. / Then late at night / We’d be gazing at the sight / Standing...
Circumstances in Life
I really should apologize for my last post.. I’m usually not like that. There was a lot that was bothering me at the time and rather than confronting the problem head on, I took it out on Tumblr. It’s like in 500 Days of Summer with the scene where Tom imagines how he wanted things to be and how it actually happened. That’s how my life is, always a split screen playing in my head...
Slow Dancing in a Burning Room
This summer has been so frustrating and today just topped it all off. I just wished everyone would leave me alone and stop repeating the same things over and over again to me. The truth of it is everything you’re saying is nothing new to me. If you don’t have anything new to point out to me, then just save your breath. I don’t need to hear the same things over and over again. If...
May the best of today be the worst of your...
You know how people say you should live in the moment and for that day, etc.. Sometimes I don’t see how that’s possible. You can only appreciate something once it’s all done and over with and you’re able to reflect on it. Now that I can see my journey in Philly this summer slowly coming to an end am I really able to appreciate the experience. There were countless days when...
