Dear Beth,

I was on facebook just a couple of minutes ago, and I read my brother's girlfreinds status. It said this:

yes we are fifteen.
yes we are too young to be in love.
however,
yes, we are madly in love,
no, we won't apologize for it,
yes, we know high school couples never last.
but, we have beaten all the odds before.
and 19 months later we are still together
so no, i'm never gonna give up.
love u ♥

 

And i'm so touched. She is brave enough to put this in her status, smart enough to think of this, and strong enough to put up with my brother! haha.

And although she is younger, I can't help but admire her. How she does it is unbelievable. She's right, she is beating the odds. She is so strong.
And although I never will tell her this, and I know that she won't see my Blog-ever. I can't help but share her with the world. She truly is precious.

So here's my unwritten response;

 

Yeah, you are young.

You proved that love has no age.

You are the person that every other girl dreams to be like.

No, high school couples usually don't last,

but some how you hung in there,

and showed everyone else that they were wrong.

And 19 months later, you are still proving how strong you are.

I hope you never do give up,

we love you ♥

Song of the Day

So for today's song of the day, I chose the song "My Heart Will Go On" by Celine Dion. I actually LOVE this song soo much! And there is a backstory to today's song. I was going to audition for the play the Wizard of Oz, and we had to choose a song to sing from a play. I chose this song because my voice is really high, and so I could actually sing this song. Anyway, I practiced and practiced and then came show time. They called my name and I was lead into a room with 3 Judges and a piano player. I looked at them, and the next thing I know, the piano player was already 30 seconds through the song and she was mouthing the words to me. I ALMOST PASSED OUT that's how scared I was. My knees were shakey, and I just stood there-frozen. Haha, needless to say that I did NOT make it into the production.
Anyway, Celine Dion sings this song BEAUTIFULLY and she does not freeze while singing it! :D
I first heard this song when I was watching Titanic, and this song just made my cry! It was incredible. And when I think of Titanic, I think of this song.



Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you
That is how I know you go on

Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never let go till we're gone

Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold to
In my life we'll always go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

You're here, there's nothing I fear
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

Yesterday

So yesterday, I was invited to my friend Nick's house and it was pretty much Amazing! We did a lot of things and one of them was a movie; we watched the Time Travellor's Wife-and OH MY GOSH! I had never seen the movie before and may I say that it was AMAZINGG!! Usually, I cry in movies. I cry pretty easily too-something super cute, or sad or funny-I'm crying. And I heard that the Time Travellor's Wife was really good and that it was a bit sad at the ending but this was SO sad! I was pretty much crying through the ENTIRE movie. And you know how it goes, once you start you can't stop it!
Anyways, so here I am meeting his family for the first time, and I'm sitting on the couch bawling my eyes out! Kay Sweet.
And his family is one of those families that are quiet and his dad and brother is kind-of weird, so that just made it even better?!
Lol, but it was so good! I DEFFINATELY reccomend this movie to Anyone!

And before the movie, we went and saw his horses (Which was incredible!) His horse was 17 hands tall!! THATS HUGE!
He also took me to see his Swans and Sheep. It was pretty cool. Except that I was TERRIFIED that the Swans would attack me! (My mom has had it happen before, and I've heard a BUNCH of stories that people have got attacked!) So needless to say, I was Extremely glad when it didn't attack me.
We also went for a walk in the bush, and that was pretty awesome. We threw snow at each other though. :)

All in all, it was a pretty great night! And I can't wait to go back again!

Song of the Day

For today's song, I figure that a song about Comedy would be awesome! I was listening to the radio yesterday, and I heard this song again, and I just laughed. I think that this is an extremely clever song and it just matches how I feel. I am also religious, but this song just gets me going. :)
I don't know any other songs, from this band, off hand. But I love it!
Today's song is: Pray For You by Jaron & the long road to love:

I haven't been to church since I don't remember when
Things were going great '˜til they fell apart again
So I listened to the preacher as he told me what to do
He said you cant go hating others who have done wrong to you.
Sometimes we get angry, but we must not condemn.
Let the good Lord do His job and you just pray for them.

I pray your brakes go out running down a hill
I pray a flowerpot falls from a window sill and knocks you in the head like I'd like to
I pray your birthday comes and nobody calls
I pray you're flying high when your engine stalls
I pray all your dreams never come true
Just know wherever you are honey, I pray for you

I'm really glad I found my way to church
'Cause I'm already feeling better and I thank God for the words.
[. From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/j/jaron-&-the-long-road-to-love-lyrics/pray-for-you-lyrics.html .]
Yeah I'm going take the high road,
And do what the preacher told me to do,
You keep messing up and I'll keep praying for you.

I pray your tire blows out at 110.
I pray you pass out drunk with your best friend and wake up with his and her tattoos.

I pray your brakes go out running down a hill.
I pray a flowerpot falls from a window sill and knocks you in the head like I'd like to.
I pray your birthday comes and nobody calls
I pray you're flying high when your engine stalls
I pray all your dreams never come true
Just know wherever you are, near or far, in your house or in your car,
wherever you are honey, I pray for you.
I pray for you

I am Cindy Loo Who

I am a deffinate Who.


I absolutely LOVE christmas. My mom and I decorate the tree every year and we bake christmas cookies. This year, Alex, Dylan and a bunch of other friends went to the tree lighting ceremony and I LOVED it.
Every year I am the First person up in my family. Haha, last year, I allowed myself out of bed at 4:30 am. (The rule is that we can open our stocking up before anyone else is awake) And I unwrapped my presents as loud as I could!! My stocking has a bell on it, and so I shook my stocking and tried to wake everyone up!
Eventually I ended up getting Sarah up, and anyone was awake before 5am. :)
Needless to say, I Absolutely LOVE christmas!

My Friend Dylan

He is a Jerk. he is ALWAYS grouchy and ALWAYS complaining! He can't speak properly and he always uses his hands when he talks. He always has his necklace on wrong, and he drives me Insane! He always makes me sit beside a creepy guy in Business leadership and he is always bugging me! And he's pretty funny looking!

But overall, I love to laugh at him. He's a pretty funny guy ( to laugh at). He knows how to take a joke, and he is there for his friends. He is a great dancer-no matter what Stupid costumes he wears! and he is pretty cool. Sometimes.
I enjoy having him as my friend. Thanks Dill!

My Friend Alex

So pretty much, I love my friend Alex. She is incredible :) She's always there for me when I need her and she brings coffee and cookies :). She always makes me laugh, and she's so gorgeous! We always tease Dylan, and so even on the worst of days it's Hillarious and she makes me smile!

I guess what I am trying to get at, is thank you Alex for always being there when I need you :) <3



And Dylan sucks.

As the new year comes again, I can't help but feel like I'm getting old. I actually remember having to erase my date of 1999 to the year 2000! And last week, I accidently wrote 2007 instead of 2010. I feel though time has gotten away from me, and left me in the dust.
I remember the days when my brother and I would run around catching frogs and snakes (Yes, I was a tomboy) or when my dad and I went three-wheeling! lol, I was probably 6 years old and he took me 3-wheeling the one day. He was being a show-off to his friend and (WHILE I WAS ON THE BACK) he did a pop-a-wheelie in the mud! He ended up flipping us off and we landed in the mud. I remember that I was SO mad at him that I walked all the way home! Haha.
Or when my mom and I would run outside when it was raining, and we would sing "Im a little tea pot" and dance in the rain :)
Those were some precious moments...
And now, I'm stuck in school-which could be my last year and I wonder what precious moments I have made this year? Did I do everything I wanted to do? Or is there anything that I regret? Did I just waste this year or did I give my all in everything?
I hope that I will remember these thoughts throughout 2011-but let's be serious here, I doubt I will. It will probably be another year with regrets and questions. But hey, it's a nice thought right?
:)

Song of the Day

So for today's song, I choose to do a song by Keith Urban. I actually LOVE this song and I think that it is sooo adorable!! I LOVE country music and this song just works for me. I love it when guys are sincere and can express their feelings, and that's exactly what Keith Urban did here. I HIGHLY reccommend this song.

And being completely honest, not only is this song amazing-but he's soo gorgeous!! Older or not, he truly is!
Anyways, this is called "Put You In a Song"



Well here you come again and you’re lookin’ so fine
You don’t notice me but it’s alright
I’m just a guy who wishes that I could be your man someday
Yeah a picture paints a thousand words it’s true
But it’s still not enough for how I feel about you
I wanna put you in a melody, I gotta set you to a groove
I wanna put you in my car and drive
And turn you up loud, roll down all the windows and shout it out
I love this girl oh
If I could press play, repeat how happy I’d be
Wherever I’d go I’d have you there with me
You’d be right where you belong
I wanna put you in a song, oh oh oh
Well I’d sing about your smile and your pretty blue eyes
The way your hair shimmers in the sunlight
It’d be so easy I’d just write it from my heart
‘Cause I gotta tell the world what you mean to me
Wrap you up in a melody so you’ll be
Stuck in my head all day
‘Cause you’re already there anyway, yes you are
http://www.hotnewsonglyrics.com/keith-urban-put-you-in-a-song-lyrics.html
I wanna put you in my car and drive
And turn you up loud, roll down all the windows and shout it out
I love this girl
If I could press play, repeat how happy I’d be
Wherever I’d go I’d have you there with me
You’d be right where you belong
I wanna put you in a song
And if I get it right everybody’d be singing along yeah
And when they see you on the street they’ll say
Hey ain’t you the girl in that song
I wanna put you in my car and drive
And turn you up loud, roll down all the windows and shout it out
I’m in love with this girl
Yeah if I could press play, rewind a couple million times
Imagine for a moment that you’re all mine
Every night I’d drive you home
If I could put you in a
Let me put you in a song
Let me put you in a song
Oh a pretty little song about you baby

Wonderful Friday Night

Friday after school, I had the privileged of having  Alex Urlando after school. We took my puppy for a walk down to the Waterlot and she chased the ducks. We went to Meme's and Alex bought me a large coffee (BLESS HER HEART) and a chocolate chip cookie. We walked back to my house and we made ourselves supper and tea and off we went to the Lighting of the Tree in New Hamburg. We had previous arrangements to meet up with Nyla, Julia, Dylan and Alex Dow. 

So we walked to the tree and waited around the fountain. We scanned the crowd for the rest of the gang but couldn't find them. In our search, a man, with a mental disability, came over and talked to us. He wished us a Merry Christmas and told us not to eat too much food. We laughed as he told us that he always ate too much donuts. And then we were off. Alex Thankfully found the rest of our friends and we all got together and talked.

The power was out in New Hamburg, so the people who were running the event just blasted some Christmas music. We were singing, when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I looked back and the man was back. He smiled and asked me if I wanted to dance. I thought "Might as well" and replied that I would love to. We danced and laughed and he ended up telling me that his mother just died. I felt so bad for the man...

The music ended, and he said thank-you to me, and then he asked Alex to dance! 

After she came back, we danced and sang and laughed in the snow while people around us enjoyed their time as well. 

The night carried on, and after the tree was lit, we all went back to Nyla's house for some hot chocolate. We shared stories, laughed and Dylan and I threw snow at each other. (Mind you, he had terrible aim and never managed to hit me.) 

I went home and I finally felt like it was Christmas. The singing, dancing, story-sharing, laughing, snow-throwing Christmas that you always watch in the movies. And the kind of Christmas that makes a joyful memory. 

Thanks guys for the Wonderful Friday Night!

 

Song of the Day

 For today's song, I've chose the song "I'm In a Hurry" by Alabama (Yes, it is a country song). The reason why I chose this song was because I find that everyone is always rushing around. Especially on Christmas. And I know that I am no exception to this rush, but I think that's part of the reason why people love camping, hiking, walking, canoeing/boating, going to the beach, fishing. It's because time doesn't seem like quite an issue. We CAN relax, take a few breaths and enjoy what is going on around us. We are too busy running out to the car in the morning to notice the freshly fallen snow. To notice the dog running around. To notice the hard work that people  put into shoveling the sidewalks. I am going to try and slow down this Christmas season and enjoy the beauty of life. I mean, there is only going to be a December 2010 once. And I challenge you to do the same.
Anyway, Alabama's I'm in a Hurry:

I'm in a hurry to get things done
Oh, I rush and rush until life's no fun
All I really gotta do is live and die
But, I'm in a hurry and don't know why

Don't know why
I have to drive so fast
My car has nothing to prove
It's not new, but it'll do 0-60 in 5.2, oh

I'm in a hurry to get things done
Oh, I rush and rush until life's no fun
All I really gotta do is live and die
But, I'm in a hurry and don't know why
Can't be late
I leave in plenty of time
Shakin, hands with the clock
I can't stop
I'm on a roll and I'm ready to rock, Oh

I'm in a hurry to get things done
Oh, I rush and rush until life's no fun
All I really gotta do is live and die
But, I'm in a hurry and don't know why

I hear a voice
It says I'm running behind
I better pick up my pace
I'ts a race and there ain't no room for someone in second place

I'm in a hurry to get things done
Oh, I rush and rush until life's no fun
All I really gotta do is live and die
But, I'm in a hurry and don't know why

I'm in a hurry to get things done
Oh, I rush and rush until life's no fun
All I really gotta do is live and die
But I'm in a hurry and don't know why

I'm in a hurry to get things done
Oh, I rush and rush until life's no fun
All I really gotta do is live and die
But I'm in a hurry and don't know why

I'm in a hurry to get things done
Oh, I rush and rush until life's no fun
All I really gotta do is live and dime
But I'm in a hurry and don't know why

Lyrics of the Day

So for today's Song, I am going to post Katy Perry's song Teenage Dream. I love this song, I love Katy Perry and I find that I can relate to this song. I love just rocking out to music, and this is one that my sister and I just rock out to. Bet you can imagine it-2 sisters dancing around, singing their hearts out! Yep, we're cool..
Anyways, without embarassing myself further, Katy Perry's Tennage Dream:

You think I'm pretty
Without any makeup on
You think I'm funny
When I tell the punchline wrong
I know you get me
So I let my walls come down, down

Before you met me
I was alright but things
Were kinda heavy
You brought me to life
Now every February
You'll be my Valentine, Valentine

Let's go all the way tonight
No regrets, just love
We can dance, until we die
You and I, will be young forever

[Chorus]
You make me feel
Like I'm livin' a
Teenage dream
The way you turn me on
I can't sleep
Let's run away and
Don't ever look back,
Don't ever look back

My heart stops
When you look at me
Just one touch
Now baby I believe
This is real
So take a chance and
Don't ever look back,
Don't ever look back

We drove to Cali
And got drunk on the beach
Got a motel and
Built a fort out of sheets
I finally found you
My missing puzzle piece
I'm complete

Let's go all the way tonight
No regrets, just love
We can dance, until we die
You and I, will be young forever

[Chorus]
You make me feel
Like I'm livin' a
Teenage dream
The way you turn me on
I can't sleep
Let's run away and
Don't ever look back,
Don't ever look back

My heart stops
When you look at me
Just one touch
Now baby I believe
This is real
So take a chance and
Don't ever look back,
Don't ever look back

I'mma get your heart racing
In my skin tights jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
Let you put your hands on me
In my skin tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight

[Chorus]
Yoooouuu
You make me feel
Like I'm livin' a
Teenage dream
The way you turn me on
I can't sleep
Let's run away and
Don't ever look back,
Don't ever look back
No

My heart stops
When you look at me
Just one touch
Now baby I believe
This is real
So take a chance and
Don't ever look back,
Don't ever look back

I'mma get your heart racing
In my skin tights jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
Let you put your hands on me
In my skin tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
(Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight)

The Undeniable Crush

So I missed a couple days of blogging, so I'm just catching up ;) One of the days assignments was to blog about a crush and so, here I am. Some people blogged about crushes they had when they were a little kid, but I'm about to show you the Sexiest Man Alive! ..Well you probably have all seen him or heard about him. His name, you ask? Ladies and Gentleman, May I present to you the drop-dead gorgeous Taylor Lautner!



As you may have guessed, I am a Taylor Launter fan! Team Jacob-all the way!

       

HE IS HOT. He would be the person I would meet if I could meet anyone.

Screw Edward, Team Jacob All The Way!

A Blog that I enjoy...

A blog that I enjoy would be pretty much anything about horses. Haha, could you guess? But one in particular would have to be "Fugly Horse of the Day". I find that it is familarly amusing material and, to be honest, I just Love the name of it.
It has some funny material, some serious and some informational. And let's be serious-you can follow it on Facebook!?!
Here's the link if you were thinking about checking it out:
http://www.networkedblogs.com/blog/fugly_horse_of_the_day_241118/
Well, that's about all I can say for this assignment.. So I'll just post some pictures of horses that I have found.
        

If I Could Transfer Myself Anywhere...

If I could transfer myself anywhere, I would say that I would tranfer myself to a church in the South. I just saw the movie "Last Holliday" starring Queen Latifa and in this movie there is a scene where she goes to an all-black-persons church where they sing anything and dance around and shout! It just seems so different from all the churches I've been to and I have always desired to just sing and dance and shout! I don't really know why, but they always seem to have a certain carisma to them, and I'd love to be apart of it!
And even though I can't transport there right this second, I hope that I can eventually go there some day.

Song Of The Day

For today's song, it's a song that has a very...lifting vibe to it. It's the type of song that you just crank the volume and dance around singing as loud as you can. It's a band that you AND your parents would know. So without rambling on, Whitesnakes "Here I Go Again":

No, I don't know where I'm going
But, I sure know where I've been
Hanging on the promises
In songs of yesterday
An' I've made up my mind,
I ain't wasting no more time

Here I go again, here I go again

Tho' I keep searching for an answer,
I never seem to find what I'm looking for
Oh Lord, I pray
You give me strength to carry on,
'Cos I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams

An' here I go again on my own
Goin' down the only road I've ever known,
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone
An' I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time

I'm just another heart in need of rescue,
Waiting on love's sweet charity
An' I'm gonna hold on
For the rest of my days,
'Cos I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams

An' here I go again on my own
Goin' down the only road I've ever known,
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone
An' I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time

But, here I go again,
Here I go again,
Here I go again,
Here I go

'Cos I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams

An' here I go again on my own
Goin' down the only road I've ever known,
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone
An' I've made up my mind,
I ain't wasting no more time

An' here I go again on my own
Goin' down the only road I've ever known,
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone
'Cos I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams

An' here I go again on my own
Goin' down the only road I've ever known,
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone
Goin' down the only road I've ever known

Song of the Day

For today's song, I chose a song that you will all probably know. It was sung in Titanic by Celine Dion and it is one of the prettiest songs I've ever heard. This song has a long range of notes and it is gorgeous. There is also a story to this song. When I was in grade..7? 8 Maybe? My sister and I tried out for a play (put on by TCP) I had never tried out for a play before, and my music teacher encouraged me to try out for it. So I found out that you had to pick a song from a play, and I chose this one. I got some help with it, and I practiced every day (well Almost!). Anyways, try out day came and I got in there and could not remember the words to the song. I was so nervous that I almost fainted. I'm pretty sure I froze for a good 30 seconds because I did not hear the music start or anything, and the next thing I know the pianist was about 30 seconds into the song. Haha, needless to say I walked out of there and didn't get the part ;) 

So I hope you enjoyed the story, and here's the song! It's called "My Heart Will Go On".

Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you
That is how I know you go on

Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never let go till we're gone

Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold to
In my life we'll always go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

You're here, there's nothing I fear
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

Song of the day/weekend. (Forgive me?)

I hope you can all forgive me for not posting a "song of the day". I found out Friday morning that Ben broke up with me, and it's been a rough weekend. Mind you, I played football on Saturday and that helped. Anyway, I thought that Taylor Swift's song "Forever and Always" seemed appropriate for today's song for today and the weekend. So without further a due, "Forever and always"

Once upon a time, I believe it was a Tuesday when I caught your eye
And we caught onto something
I hold onto the night, you looked me in the eye and told me you loved me

Were you just kidding?
'cause it seems to me, this thing is breaking down
We almost never speak
I don't feel welcome anymore
Baby what happened, please tell me?

'cause one second it was perfect, now you're halfway out the door

And I stare at the phone, he still hasn't called
And then you feel so low you cant feel nothing at all
And you flashback to when he said forever and always
Oh, and it rains in your bedroom
Everything is wrong
It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone
Cause I was there when you said forever and always

Was I out of line?
Did I say something way too honest, made you run and hide
Like a scared little boy
I looked into your eyes
Thought I knew you for a minute, now I'm not so sure

So here's everything coming down to nothing
Here's to silence that cuts me to the core
Where is this going? Thought I knew for a minute, but I don't anymore

And I stare at the phone, he still hasn't called
And then you feel so low you cant feel nothing at all
And you flashback to when he said forever and always
Oh, and it rains in your bedroom
Everything is wrong
It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone
'cause I was there when you said forever and always
You didn't mean it baby, I don't think so

Back up, baby, back up
Did you forget everything
Back up, baby, back up
Did you forget everything

'cause it rains in your bedroom
Everything is wrong
It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone
'cause I was there when you said forever and always

Oh, I stare at the phone, he still hasn't called
And then you feel so low you cant feel nothing at all
And you flashback to when we said forever and always

And it rains in your bedroom
Everything is wrong
It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone
'cause I was there when you said forever and always
You didn't mean it baby, you said forever and always... yeah

Song of the Day

So for today's song, I choose to do the song "Free like the Wild Horses" by Natasha Bedingfield. I find that when I am down, this is a good inspirational song and I find that the lyrics are so moving. I love horses and I think this song is sung beautifully.


Hmmm woah yea...

I feel these 4 walls closing in
My face up against the glass
I'm looking out... hmm
Is this my life I'm wondering
It happened so fast
How do I turn this thing around
Is this the bed I chose to make
Its greener pastures I'm thinking about hmm
Wide open spaces far away

All I want is the wind in my hair
To face the fear but, not feel scared

[Chorus:]
Wild horses I wanna be like you
Throwing caution to the wind
I'll run free too
Wish I could recklessly love, like I'm longing to
Run with the wild horses, run with the wild horses!
Oh yeah yea

I see the girl I wanna be
Riding bare back, care free along the shore
If only that someone was me
Jumping head first headlong without a thought
To act and damn the consequence
How I wish it could be that easy
But fear surrounds me like a fence
I wanna break free

All I want is the wind in my hair
To face the fear but, not feel scared
Hoohhh woah woah

[Chorus:]
Wild horses I wanna be like you
Throwing caution to the wind
I'll run free too
Wish I could recklessly love, like I'm longing to
I wanna run with the wild horses, run with the wild horses!
Oh yeah yea

I wanna run too.
Hohhh woah oh woah oh

Breaklessly abandoning my self before you

I wanna open up my heart tell him how I feel

[Chorus:]
Wild horses I wanna be like you
Throwing caution to the wind
I'll run free too
Wish I could recklessly love, like I'm longing to
I wanna run with the wild horses, run with the wild horses! [X2]
Hooaah woah oh woah
Yeah

I wanna run with the wild horses

What are Good Friends for?

So I have a GREAT friend. He and I have been friends since high school. And today it occured to me how GREAT of friends we are. Today, we were in writers craft. We had a presentation to do, and he was Supposed to read a line but he didn't! And so I was waiting patiently for him to read the line, and I realized that he wasn't going to, so I read mine. At the end of the presentation, HE blamed ME!
"WHAT?!" You may be thinking, yeah, I WAS TOO! But whatever, life goes on.
Then We were in business class and there was a REALLY long note/mind map that we had to write. I was doing my work, and all he did was distract me. He just kept showing me IRREVELANT things-like a photo of his cousin. COOL?!
Anyways, I kept working away and he didn't and then he asked for my paper. "Well, okay..." I thought, I can forgive him.
Then like 15 minutes ago, I asked him to play on my FAVOURITE game that he has on his ipod thingy, and guess what. He said No.
Kay, sweet! LOVE having great friends like him.

Top 10 ways to get Rid of Your Date

We all make mistakes, but you don't have to suffer the indignity, boredom and embarrassment of suffering through a bad night out with someone who looked and sounded pretty good after seven beers, but in fact is a bore, aesthetically challenged or a straight up nut job.
Here's 10 sure-fire ways to short circuit a dodgy date:

1. After your first drink, suggest to your date that since the night is going so well you two should go immediately to the nearest tattoo parlour and get each other's names inked on your bums.

2. Start complaining about the restraining order your ex has out on you and explain that the stalking charges will be easy to beat in court.

3. Nonchalantly start eating food from your date's plate. Eat more from their plate than they do.

4. Ask your date how much money they have with them. Get them to pay for everything. "I'm a little broke at the moment."

5. Fart repeatedly. Add commentary if necessary.

6. Tell your date you're really into The Forum, Scientology, Anthony Robbins, Deepak Chopra, Women Who Run With the Wolves, channelling, extraterrestrial possession and/or re-birthing, and there's a seminar on this weekend and you really should go. "It's only $1,200 and I think you could really benefit from it."

7. Give some backhanded compliments: "You know, you've got great tits. Are they yours?" or "Nice suit. Is it from WalMart?"

8. Call your mother on your mobile in the middle of the movie.

9. Talk incessantly about your obsession with Pee Wee Herman.

10. Never look your date in the eye, and always mumble when you are talking to him/her. Pause at least 20 seconds before answering their questions.




This is taken Directly from http://ezinearticles.com/?Top-10-Ways-To-Get-Rid-Of-A-Bad-Date&id=343055. I just thought that it was hillarious, and thought you'd enjoy it too.

My Pet Peeve

I have SOOO many pet peeves, it's unbelievable. So I guess to narrow it down to one, I'll just write about the one that has affected me recently.
So on friday, I had a HUGE challenge and change test to write. (But no worries, I studied Really hard for it!) I started to read over my test. YES! Matching, multiple choice, a few short answers and BAM! 100% On the test!
I started to match all of the matching questions. Uh oh, one I wasn't Positive on, so I had to guess. But no worries, I was still going to pass this thing. Then I got to the multiple choice, BAM BAM BAM! Done and Done! This test was going great! Then I get to the short answer questions. Ohh, the first one was a long one, but I knew this stuff. So as I am thinking about the answer and how to correctly format my answer to recieve the best possible marks, i hear "CRUNCH, CRUNCH, CRUNCH!" What the...?
"CRUNCH, CRUNCH"   UGHH, WHO was trying to wreck my concentration?! Thaht stupid crunching was all I could hear!
CRUNCH, CRUNCH, CRUNCH.
The whole room was completely quiet, except for that STUPID crunching! I swear, the people at the other end of the school could've heard that Massive Crunch! I looked back to see what the Hell was going on, and sure enough, someone was eating a bloody carrot. Not something that slightly crunches, NO, that wouldn't be distrubing enough. It HAD to be a carrot! Like, you might as well pull out the new sun chips bag!
I looked back to my sheet of paper, and I noticed that the teacher was watching me. GREEEEATTT, so now he probably thinks that I was talking or cheating with Carrot-Muncher.
I zoomed through the rest of my test, praying that I got all the answers right and then I Left to go down to the library. I ended up recieving an 84%. But I tell you, if that Stupid Crunching sound never occured, I would have got the full out 100%.
Thanks Carrot-Muncher.

Lyrics of the Day

For today's lyrics, I am going to put up the song "Can You Feel the Love Tonight?" from the Lion King. I choose this song because when I was little, the only movies that I would watch were Barney and The Lion King. I am a romancy-type person, so in the movie this song represents when the two lions fall inlove. Also, my mom and I were singing this song this morning, so without further adue, Can You Feel the Love Tonight:


[Timon:]
I can see what's happening
(What?)
And they don't have a clue
(Who?)
They'll fall in love and here's the bottom line
Our trio's down to two.
(Oh.)
[In a sarcastic mock-French accent]
Ze sweet caress of twilight
[Back to normal, but still sarcastic]
There's magic everywhere
And with all this romantic atmosphere
Disaster's in the air
[FS:]
Can you feel the love tonight?
The peace the evening brings
The world, for once, in perfect harmony
With all its living things
[Simba:]
So many things to tell her
But how to make her see
The truth about my past? Impossible!
She'd turn away from me
[Nala:]
He's holding back, he's hiding
But what, I can't decide
Why won't he be the king I know he is
The king I see inside?
[Chorus:]
Can you feel the love tonight?
The peace the evening brings
The world, for once, in perfect harmony
With all its living things
Can you feel the love tonight?
You needn't look too far
Stealing through the night's uncertainties
Love is where they are
[Timon:]
And if he falls in love tonight
It can be assumed
[Pumbaa:]
His carefree days with us are history
[Timon and Pumbaa:]
In short, our pal is doomed

Song of the Day

From now on, I'm going to try and put a song up a day that means something to me. I'll post the lyrics and the story and you guys can let me know what you think!
For today's song, I am putting up the song "Mine" by Taylor Swift. My boyfriend and I have been going out now for over 3 months. (He asked me out Aug. 5, 2010). This will be my kick-off song:

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

You were in college, working part-time, waiting tables
Left a small town and never looked back
I was a flight risk, afraid of fallin'
Wondering why we bother with love, if it never lasts

I say, "Can you believe it?"
As we're lyin' on the couch
The moment, I can see it
Yes, yes, I can see it now

Do you remember, we were sittin' there, by the water?
You put your arm around me for the fist time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine

Flash forward, and we're takin' on the world together
And there's a drawer of my things at your place
You learn my secrets and figure out why I'm guarded
You say we'll never make my parents' mistakes

But we got bills to pay
We got nothin' figured out
When it was hard to take
Yes, yes

This is what I thought about:

Do you remember, we were sittin' there, by the water?
You put your arm around me for the fist time
Taylor Swift Mine lyrics found on http://www.directlyrics.com/taylor-swift-mine-lyrics.html

You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine

Do you remember all the city lights on the water?
You saw me start to believe for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine

Oh, oh, oh, oh

And I remember that fight, two-thirty AM
You said everything was slipping right out of our hands
I ran out, crying, and you followed me out into the street

Braced myself for the goodbye, cause that's all I've ever known
Then, you took me by surprise
You said, "I'll never leave you alone."

You said, "I remember how we felt, sitting by the water.
And every time I look at you, it's like the first time.
I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter.
She is the best thing that's ever been mine."

You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine

Do you believe it?
We're gonna make it now
And I can see it

I can see it now

She is...

She is beautiful.

She is confident.

She is powerful.

She is athletic.

She is energetic.

She is majestic.

She is sensitive.

She is caring.

She is loving.

She is stubborn.

She is spirited.

She is fast.

She is patient.

She is free.

She is Mine, and I am hers.

My beautiful horse <3

I was thinking about getting a haircut. I always like it when the hairdresser plays with my hair. I enjoy getting it cut and knowing that it is healthy :). But then I was searching around Google, trying to figure out if I wanted to just get it trimmed, or if I wanted a new look. And as I was searching I came across these pictures...

This poor boy. I bet you that he was getting into mischief and his mom decided to just punish him!

The boy must have gotten really upset, and cut his mom's hair like this.

This is a teenager who decided that he wanted to make a statement...Right before picture day.

Clearly, this guy wanted to relive the past...

This is an animal activist who was protraying his commitment by cutting his hair to represent a SKUNK.

No comment...

She was wishing that she was half guy.

And after seeing all of these LOVELY pictures, I have decided that my haircut will be prolonged...

i ' m n o t a f r a i d .

I absolutely LOVE this song, and I suddenly had the urge to post it awhile ago. I ran outta time, and saved it as a draft. So here it finally is, Posted.

I'm not afraid to take a stand
Everybody come take my hand
We'll walk this road together, through the storm
Whatever weather, cold or warm
Just let you know that, you're not alone
Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road

And I just can't keep living this way
So starting today, I'm breaking out of this cage
I'm standing up, Imma face my demons
I'm manning up, Imma hold my ground
I've had enough, now I'm so fed up
Time to put my life back together right now

Brad Paisley's "She's Everything"

I was listening to 106.7 the other day, and this song came on. It's brad paisley's "She's Everything". And I couldn't help but notice how much it relates to me. Like, nevermind all the romantic stuff, but the holey pair of jeans.. I admit it. I'm wearing some right now. And I ALWAYS have cheap sunglasses on. I love chocolate, I can be very moody..lol. I LOVE going to the movies, I have brown hair, I am stubborn and "a fighter" when I am mad. I go to church on Sunday's, and wear a cross around my neck. LOVE wine, Love candles. Like, this song just describes me. :) Anyways, I thought it was cool. Here's the song:

She's a yellow pair of running shoes
A holey pair of jeans
She looks great in cheap sunglasses
She looks great in anything
She's I want a piece of chocolate
Take me to a movie
She's I can't find a thing to wear
Now and then she's moody

She's a Saturn with a sunroof
With her brown hair a-blowin
She's a soft place to land
And a good feeling knowing
She's a warm conversation
That I wouldn't miss for nothing
She's a fighter when she's mad
And she's a lover when she's loving

[Chorus]
And she's everything I ever wanted
And everything I need
I talk about her, I go on and on and on
because she's everything to me

She's a Saturday out on the town
And a church girl on Sunday
She's a cross around her neck
And a cuss word 'cause its Monday
She's a bubble bath and candles
Baby come and kiss me
She's a one glass of wine
And she's feeling kinda tipsy

She's the giver I wish I could be
And the stealer of the covers
She's a picture in my wallet
Of my unborn children's mother
She's the hand that I'm holding
When I'm on my knees and praying
She's the answer to my prayer
And she's the song that I'm playing

[Repeat chorus]

She's the voice I love to hear
Someday when I'm ninety
She's that wooden rocking chair
I want rocking right beside me
Everyday that passes
I only love her more
Yeah, she's the one
That I'd lay down my own life for

And she's everything I ever wanted
And everything I need
She's everything to me
Yeah she's everything to me

Everything I ever wanted
And everything I need
She's everything to me
Yeah shes everything to me
everything to me

Where did all the gentleman go?

Today, I was walking into the library at school. The bell had just rang and so everyone was still piling out of the library. There is only enough room for one person at a time to go through the detector (right before the door). And as I patiently waited my turn, one young man stopped and waited for me to go through. I got thinking about it, and I realized that while I was standing there for a while, most of the people who went through the detector were male. This got me thinking, because back in the day, the men would always let the ladies go first. They would hold the doors, and would show their consideration, and just be a gentleman. But I waited for a while and none of those guys even waited for a second! And I can't help but think about how many doors I walk through, how many times the guys shove to the front of the line-to get to the back of the bus, to get out of class first, to get into the cafe line to make sure they get the good food.
Do guys not realize that it's the little gestures that catch our (us ladies) attention? That flowers brighten our week, that holding a door makes us feel special, that kissing our forehead makes us feel like a princess. It's these littles things that stand out.
Even though it was a little gesture, waiting for me to go through the door, I will always have some respect for him.
But my question is, why did no one before him stop? Why do I have to get shoved back in line for the bus? Where did all of the gentleman go?

This morning, I heard an announcement that we (the students) are not allowed to support our football team and watch the game, unless our parent is there.
What?! Did I just hear that correctly?! We are honestly Not Allowed to watch the game unless our Parents are there? That's pathetic. Apparently, we have travelled back in time to when we were 6 years old, where we have to have our parents watch us to make sure we behave. I guess that, IF we missed behaved, detention and/or suspention just isn't good enough anymore. Instead, we have to go back to the day where our parents slapped our wrist and said "Bad girl!" with a disappointed look on their face. And if we are being really bad, there is no bed time story for us tonight!
...Is it not supposed to be encouraged that the students support their football team and cheer loud? Does it not psych the team up and give them that last burst of energy that they need to win the game?! Does the school not realize that trying to enforce the rule of the parent being there will not drive ALL the fans away? I tell you, I thought teachers were supposed to be smart...
And so, our football team will play tonights game, Fanless, and our parents will be relieved that they will not have to slap our wrists and send us to bed without a goodnight story.

Reliving my Childhood

  

For my blog, I'm going to travel back in time... Back to a time when scraped knees were the end of the world! Back to a time where boys had Cooties, and my daddy was my favourtie guy in the world. Looking back now, those days were incredible, and I would love to get to relive them!

For my first memory, I will tell you about the time when I was 6. I was living down in Mallory Town, Ontario and my cousins came down! My cousin Amanda and I did NOT get along and we Always fought. (We've outgrown that though!) When they came down that day, I was so excited to see everyone-with the exception of Amanda. They came down, and we hugged and kissed and Amanda and I were sent off to play. We fought over toys and my mom told me I had to share. So I put up with her for a while. But then my mom told me that we were going to get our picture taken. So I ran and put on the dress above (my best dress) and came out. My mom took a picture of me, (this photo), and I did a little curtsey-pretending that I was a princess! In this dress, I felt like a princess. I loved to wear it and I didn't get to wear it often. My cousin then needed a dress and wanted the one I was wearing- and I was having NONE of That!! So I picked out the ugliest dress I had! It was an aweful faded red dress. It had some black design on it and it honestly looked BRUTAL! (My mom even laughs about it today!) And my cousin was soo mad! I took my good dress, and she got the crappy one! hahaha, it was some good times. Her and I still laugh about that today!

This is another photo that I laugh about. It was Easter time, and I LOVE the hollidays. I ran downstairs as fast as my 8 year old legs could carry me! I worked so hard on making all the decorated easter eggs the week before, and I was extremely excited! On the table, there was 4 bags, and the purple on had my name on it! I dug into it and saw all the chocolate! WOOHOO!! WHAT A DAY!! I ran around and collected all the chocolate Easter eggs before my siblings and I felt victorious! AFTER I had selffishly collected all the chocolate eggs, and ate a few, I ran upstairs to wake everyone up! "MATTHEW, SARAH, CHARLENE, MOMMY!!! WAKE UPPP! IT'S EASTER!! THE EASTER BUNNY CAME!" And as if a bomb went off, all of my siblings run downstairs, with my mom following in our trail. We ate chocolate (and I was forced to share my Chocolate eggs), and we had a good time. My mom told us that we were to have no more chocolate and to get dressed. As everyone else marched upstairs, my siblings heads hung low and protests coming from their mouths, I hid downstairs. I had saved my big easter egg for when no one was around, and I planned on eating it! Little did I know that in my thoughts and planning, my mom had noticed that I did not follow everyone upstairs. She grabbed the camera and waited.

As I opened the package as carefully as I could, trying not to make a sound, I beamed! I was actually getting away with this! As soon as I bit into that beautiful Chocolate Easter Egg, my mom snapped a photo and started laughing! I was caught. But my mom, being in a good mood, just took my chocolate and told me that since I had a bite when I wasn't suppose to, she was going to have a bite. Well, I wasn't too happy about that, but I survived that dreadful form of torture! That was a day I would relive.
