American girls and American guys, will always stand up and salute.
We'll always recognize, when we see ol' glory flying,
There's a lot of men dead,
So we can sleep in peace at night when we lay down our heads.
My daddy served in the army where he lost his right eye,
But he flew a flag out in our yard 'til the day that he died.
He wanted my mother, my brother, my sister and me.
To grow up and live happy in the land of the free.

Now this nation that I love is fallin' under attack.
A mighty sucker-punch came flying in from somewhere in the back.
Soon as we could see clearly through our big black eye,
Man, we lit up your world like the fourth of July.

Hey, Uncle Sam put your name at the top of his list,
And the Statue of Liberty started shaking her fist.
And the eagle will fly and it's gonna be hell,
When you hear Mother Freedom start ringing her bell.
And it'll feel like the whole wide world is raining down on you.
Ah, brought to you, courtesy of the red, white and blue.

Instrumental break.

Oh, justice will be served and the battle will rage:
This big dog will fight when you rattle his cage.
An' you'll be sorry that you messed with the U.S. of A.
'Cos we'll put a boot in your ass, it's the American way.

Hey, Uncle Sam put your name at the top of his list,
And the Statue of Liberty started shaking her fist.
And the eagle will fly and it's gonna be hell,
When you hear Mother Freedom start ringing her bell.
And it'll feel like the whole wide world is raining down on you.
Ah, brought to you, courtesy of the red, white and blue.

Oh, oh.
Of the red, white and blue.
Oh, hey, oh.
Of my Red, White and Blue.

History of Me

I'm called a Hopeless Romantic
I'm sorry, it's in my blood
My great-great-grandparents were sweethearts in Hungary
Followed each other over
And married in the states
So yes, I do believe in Love.

I've heard that I Eat Too Much
I'm sorry, it's in my blood
My great-grandparents immigrated from Italy
Came over to the states
To find a better life
So yes, I like Italian Food.

I've heard the rumor that I like to Build
I'm sorry, it's in my blood
My grandparents built their own house
Raised a family
And now are happily retired
So yes, I like to Build.

I've heard that I'm Patient, Loving, and Kind
I'm sorry, it's in my blood
My parents raised me properly
With Please, Thank yous and nice things
And are proud of the daughter they raised
So yes, I am Taught Well.

So forgive me, If I seem rough around the edges
I'm working my way around the world
But with my family behind me
And the Future ahead of me
I believe I can make my own life worthwhile.

'TO MY DAUGHTER'

*Just for this morning, I am going to step over the laundry, and pick you up and take you to the park to play..
*Just for this morning, I will leave the dishes in the sink, and let you teach me how to put that puzzle of yours together.
*Just for this afternoon, I will unplug the telephone and keep the computer off, and sit with you in the backyard and blow bubbles.
*Just for this afternoon, I will not yell once, not even a tiny grumble when you scream and whine for the icecream truck and I will buy you one if he comes by.
*Just for this afternoon, I won't worry about what you are going to be when you grow up, or second guess every decision I have made where you are concerned.
*Just for this afternoon, I will let you help me bake cookies, and I won't stand over you trying to fix them.
*Just for this afternoon, I will take us to McDonald's and buy us both a Happy Meal so you can have both toys.
*Just for this evening, I will hold you in my arms and tell you a story about how you were born and how much I love you.
*Just for this evening, I will let you splash in the tub and not get angry.
*Just for this evening, I will let you stay up late while we sit on the porch and count all the stars.
*Just for this evening, I will snuggle beside you for hours, and miss my favorite TV shows.
*Just for this evening when I run my finger through your hair as you pray, I will simply be grateful that God has given me the greatest gift ever given.
*I will think about the mothers And fathers who are searching for their missing children, the mothers and fathers who are visiting their children's graves instead of their bedrooms , and mothers and fathers who are in hospital rooms watching their children suffer senselessly, and screaming inside that they can't handle it anymore.
*And when I kiss you good night I will hold you a little tighter, a little longer.. It is then, that I will thank God for you, and ask Him for nothing, except one moreday.............

The Red Devil and His Good Idea

You may have heard in the news that a couple of Post Offices in Texas have been forced to take down small posters that say 'IN GOD WE TRUST ,' The law,they say, is being violated.
Anyway, we heard proposed on a radio station show, that we should all write ' IN GOD WE TRUST'
On the back of all our mail.
After all, that's our National Motto, and ----- All the money we use to buy stamps.
We think it's a wonderful idea.
We must take back our nation from all the people who think that anything that offends them should be removed. If you like this idea, please pass it on and DO IT. The idea of writing or stamping..........
'IN GOD WE TRUST '
On our envelopes sounds good to us ..
SOME PEOPLE ARE HAVING A STAMP MADE TOO........ Lets use it as our signature on e-mails, too!
It's been reported that 86% of Americans believe in God. Therefore, we have a very hard time understanding why there's such a mess about having ' In God We Trust!' On our money and having God in the pledge of Allegiance. Could it be that WE just need to take action and tell the 14% to 'sit down and shut up'?
If you agree, pass this on, if not, ignore it!!!
BUT REMEMBER IF YOU IGNORE THIS, That's one reason why this world is in the mess we're in now.WE SIT BACK & LET IT HAPPEN!!
IN GOD WE TRUST

Teaching [3]

Okay so ignore the prominant front but that is what I wore to my debate a few weeks ago! And all day I got really good compliments on it so I thought I would share the idea. Quite a few people commented on the 'dress' but it really wasn't, which is the funny part! On the first layer (way down deep) I have on a pair of black tights and a black tank, which was perfect because it was a bit of a chilly day. Then over the tank was a long yellow orange... dress! Yes it was a dress and it is a dress that ties in the back which make it that much more fun to wear! I've worn it before but it was a bit too chilly to wear alone so I paired it with the long black skirt that I own and typically sits right on my hips and hangs a little below my knees. I thought today was the day to show off my *ahem* knobbly knees, and so I did. I raised up the black skirt to right underneat my bust line, held it there with my new favorite elastically belt that I bought from "Forever 21." I had to adjust the line a few times during the day, but it was worth it! I'm definetly going to try this again, perhaps with the brown dress that has been kicking around in my closet for a few years? Time to give that a new life too!

Best part is, nothing was needed to be bought, or borrowed, to pull this outfit together, just a few items that I had worn before and gave a new life to!

The P&P Lovers

ONCE there was a prude who fell in love with a player
She waited for text messages from him by the hour
And swoon when he took off her coat..s layer by layer
And yet he knew that she was locked away in a tower

HE was decent however, when he said he wanted it all to end
She thought she was being too prude and naive
And thought a long while before she hit send
When all along she knew in her heart it was time for him to leave

SHE would not do what he wanted, from the dance to getting laid
She tried to be cute and tried to be pretty, all just for him
But all he was interested was how for the night he was going to get paid
The star that she had become had started to grow rust and begin to dim

HIS kisses made her stop breathing and fly off the ground
But to him she was too innocent and didn't see the sparkle in her eye
What will be lost, will some day again be found
Such as the truth behind every lie

THERE are a few facts that you don't know about this beautiful woman
She is fun, energetic and always has some sense of style
Full of ideas that are romantic, educational, or competitive all of which she is a fan
The best thing about her is every day you can find her with a playful smile

TODAY there is that girl now with sparkling brown eyes and a straighter gait
Who knows that there are people out there who care for her every day
She doesn't let a boy's good looks and silky voice choose her fate
And that is the tale of the day when the world was going to end in May

Gals Night Out (3)

I have had these pants for a while and I've been wearing them EVERYWHERE. So it was time for them to retire, to the WEAR OUT section of the closet. And so, with the new no button sweater I have recently picked up, I had another meshed together outfit! All I needed was the blue pants, blue underneath shirt, no sleeves, very similar to a tank top and those often worn $30 heels. I didn't want to attrack too much attention to my rather large bust so I used an off-white cami that matches the color of the no button sweater and I had my outfit! The blue ontop of blue looks like a very long jumper, which seems to be the fashion these days.
And so my obsession with free fashion has struck again!

Ten Things to Learn From Japan

TEN THINGS TO LEARN FROM JAPAN


1. THE CALM

Not a single visual of chest-beating or wild grief. Sorrow itself has been elevated.

2. THE DIGNITY

Disciplined queues for water and groceries. Not a rough word or a crude gesture.

3. THE ABILITY

The incredible architects, for instance. Buildings swayed but didn't fall.

4. THE GRACE

People bought only what they needed for the present, so everybody could get something.

5. THE ORDER

No looting in shops. No honking and no overtaking on the roads. Just understanding.

6. THE SACRIFICE

Fifty workers stayed back to pump sea water in the N-reactors. How will they ever be repaid?

7. THE TENDERNESS

Restaurants cut prices. An unguarded ATM is left alone. The strong cared for the weak.

8. THE TRAINING

The old and the children, everyone knew exactly what to do. And they did just that.

9. THE MEDIA

They showed magnificent restraint in the bulletins. No silly reporters. Only calm reportage.

10. THE CONSCIENCE

When the power went off in a store, people put things back on the shelves and left quietly*

 ** **

And # 11. I saw a report where a shoe store owner had shoes that got dirty and was giving them away. People stood quietly waiting their turn to see if their size was available. Could you imagine what it would have been like here?

Traveling Angels

Two traveling angels stopped to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family.
The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the mansion's guest room.
Instead the angels were given a small space in the cold basement.
As they made their bed on the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it.
When the younger angel asked why, the older angel replied,
'Things aren't always what they seem.'

The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor, but very hospitable farmer and his wife.
After sharing what little food they had the couple let the angels sleep in their bed where they could have a good night's rest.
When the sun came up the next morning the angels found the farmer and his wife in tears.
Their only cow, whose milk had been their sole income, lay dead in the field.
The younger angel was infuriated and asked the older angel how could you have let this happen?
The first man had everything, yet you helped him, he accused.
The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and you let the cow die.
'Things aren't always what they seem,' the older angel replied.

'When we stayed in the basement of the mansion, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the wall.
Since the owner was so obsessed with greed and unwilling to share his good fortune, I sealed the wall so he wouldn't find it.'
'Then last night as we slept in the farmers bed, the angel of death came for his wife. I gave him the cow instead.
Things aren't always what they seem.'

Sometimes that is exactly what happens when things don't turn out the way they should. If you have faith, you just need to trust that every out come is always to your advantage. You just might not know it until some time later...

Late last night, I finished reading and I realized that the last fun act I had preformed in my room was decorating the fall wall with funny quotes my roommate and I had heard through movies, books or just were positive phrases. We all need something quirky to start off the day!
I knew we were taking down the phrases anyways so I didn't think attacking the wall again, especially now since she was out cold, was the best idea. So instead, I attacked the room with Tootsies!
My roommate was giving away a giant bag of candy so before its demise (really by me) so I attacked that with great gusto, and to my surprise I found Tootsies! With great voracity I dove into the remaining 11 tootsies and devised a plan.
I used the tootsies, and some tape, markers and notecard and set to work. I taped up the tootsies around the room, on the door, near the light switch, on her closet, on the desks, dresser drawers and one on the remote (I don't think she found that one yet!). On the note card (since she would find it before I would) I wrote:
"Good morning!
I hope you don't MIND but we were ATTACKED by TOOTSIES!
(I caught them all last night but they're sneaky little buggers)"
And placed it next to her alarm clock so she couldn't miss it the next morning. When I woke up I looked over and saw that a few were missing, so I knew that she had discovered the buggers. She's working on 'recapturing' them all, I take it.
Sneaky litte buggers, I just hope that they don't multiply!

Marley & Me

Just like the book cover said, you will laugh, cry and pretty much pee in your pants when you read this story. It was really tempting not to laugh at every singe funny story! There were hundreds of little anecdotals that I througly enjoyed due to the fact that I don't own a dog! Marley was rambunctous, troublesome and really did win my heart as a lot of fellow readers had warned.
The anecdotals start even before Marley came into the picture, the focus was on a young newlywed couple who were having trouble keeping even a plant alive. Then they decide to pick up a little Labrador without even reasearching the crazy animal first.  Marley comes into thier lives, named after the great singer, and turns the house upside down! Baby after Baby arrives and the house becomes a home, complete with dog drool and fuzz. 
As every dog owner knows, I didn't, there are hardships to be had and occasions when all you can do is throw your hands up and laugh. And Laugh! What else can you do when ... well I shouldn't say anything, I'll spoil everything!
However, if you do get a dog like Marley, make sure that you do a little research first!
Happy Reading!

Long, Long Way From Home

Foreigner


It was a Monday, a day like any other day
I left the small town for the apple in decay
It was my destiny, it's what's we needed to do
They were telling me, I'm telling you

I was inside looking outside
The millions of faces, but still I'm alone
Waiting, I was ever waiting
Paying a pennance, I was longing for home

I'm looking out for the two of us
I hope we'll be here when they're through with us

I was inside looking outside
Oh, the millions of faces, but still I'm alone
Waiting, I was ever waiting
I could feel the tension, I was longing for home

I'm looking out for the two of us
And I hope we'll be here when they're through with us
I'm a long way from home

Monday, sad, sad monday
She's waiting for me
But I'm a long, long way from home

Monday, sad, sad monday

She's waiting for me
But I'm a long, long way from home

Monday, sad, sad monday

She's waiting for me
But I'm a long, long way from home

Gals Night Out (2)

It was a beautiful night for a GHOST HUNT. And a perfect night to pull out my new clothes! I went out with my girl H and we had a blast. She wore her skinny jeans and little black heels and (my) favorite sweatshirt, and she must have been so much warmer than me!
As for me, I LOVE Old Navy! (I go there at least once a month!) And so I took it all out yesterday. Starting from the bottom I had my little black shoes, the ones that I wear e.v.e.r.y.w.h.e.r.e. Literally. I love them so much. I had on brown Old Navy long shorts, then a pink tank, an unbuttoned 3/4 off-white sweater and topped it all off with a black belt. I was meeting up with a few friends and I didn't want to be show offy so I didn't wear makeup or jewelry.
Turns out, the night had turned out better than I had hoped! Good luck on your end! ♥

Stuck In the Moment

I'm not afraid

Of anything in this world
There's nothing you can throw at me
That I haven't already heard
I'm just trying to find
A decent melody
A song that I can sing
In my own company

I never thought you were a fool
But darling, look at you. Ooh.
You gotta stand up straight, carry your own weight
'Cause tears are going nowhere baby

You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment
And now you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better
Now you're stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it

I will not forsake
The colors that you bring
The nights you filled with fireworks
They left you with nothing
I am still enchanted
By the light you brought to me
I listen through your ears
Through your eyes I can see

You are such a fool
To worry like you do.. Oh
I know it's tough
And you can never get enough
Of what you don't really need now
My, oh my

You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it
Oh love, look at you now
You've got yourself stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it
Oh lord look at you now
You've got yourself stuck in a moment
And you cant get out of it

I was unconscious, half asleep
The water is warm 'til you discover how deep
I wasn't jumping, for me it was a fall
It's a long way down to nothing at all

You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better
Now you're stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it

And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if your way should falter
Along this stony pass

It's just a moment
This time will pass

Haunting

He asked me where I would go
Quite simply after I died
"Where would you go? What would you see?"
I told him I wouldn't stay in one place,
I wouldn't stare into just one face.
I would travel the world, meet the people
Splash in every ocean,
Scream from every mountain,
Listen to the songs of the birds,
Dance on the wings of the wind.
He liked my style!
"Do it big"
And as a last compliment he "smiled".
I smiled back on the other side of my computer.
I have many years before I reach that stage
Of the old game that my cousins used to play.
"Miss Susie" was the name of the game,
Miss Susie had a very silly name.
She went from being a baby to a small child,
growing from toddler to teenager in such a short while.
Then from adult momma to grandmama then dead to ghost,
That was not a stage that I understood the most.
As a ghost you see you can't spread the good news,
You can't teach, you can't have friends, you can't be yourself.
I'd rather be alive and writing this to you,
Then floating around, every day closer to an eternal                                death.

Tube of Glue

I'll design a collage for you
 Although it may not be very good
It'll be full of quotes and sayings from movies and books
I'll find stickers - real tacky ones too!
 Hahaha! This will be just for you!
This letter goes with your first name
 Here spell it out, I don't want to miss one!
There's space here, it'll be filled with ribbon
 If there's some leftover it can hang from your window
I see you laughing at that, I'll put it in too
With markers I'll write random numbers and symbols
 Then cover it over again with glitter and glue
Here's a candy wrapper and an old receipt
 From your favorite store
I don't think I've used this much material before
A little bit of cloth, a snippet of string
That's a famous actress, what a silly dog!
That's a tube of glue, I'm glad that it's done
 Oh no! Another picture of the sunset!
Hmm, theres enough material for another collage,
 Want to make one for me?

Sound Off [1]

"Perfection can't be rushed, though it can't be imitated, either."

Everyone has heard this phrase at least once in their life. How many perfect people are there out in the world and how long has it taken them to be this way? In true honesty, there are no actual perfect people out there, everyone is imperfect in their own special way. A boy friend may say to his girl that she is perfect in every way, but this is not true. There are imperfections to every relationship, every person and in every thing.
If you want perfection, look to the world of nature. It takes a while for a flower to grow and sustain itself. But after it is bloomed only then you can see its perfection. There is a perfection it the leaves, in the stem, in the petals, in its shape and in its shape.
I believe the only thing that is perfect is nature. Humans aren't perfect because humans don't have the patience to make things perfect. Nature has patience, and so nature is perfect.
Often people see works of art and try to imitate it. But perfection can't be imitated. Much like the perfection in the natural world. When people try to imitate the perfected world, the imitation can turn out to be flawed.
I'm human, my patience is limited. I'm not perfect, and I don't want to be. The flaws in the imitated perfection can be seen immediately. 
I wish others can see the flaws in perfection, and try to be as original as they can be.

Culture

She made a comment the other night that made me think
She said it as the Cat was calling the sky pink
If the world was to continue to going around
And around
We go in and find a way to learn their ways
And they look at us as if we are going through a phase
Each one of us is a part of something more
Listening to different fables and legends of lore
Some great authors go to great lengths to find another way
To create another story every day
In each different story there is another town or city
Holding different characters from the large to the itty bitty
Everyone plays by a different set of rules
Anyone different is looked at as a fool
The authors create a world where the animals talk
And the worms instead of slithering they do walk
The trees move and worlds connect with space ships
Robots without heads and creatures without lips
Why are they creating different worlds with out
Learning why in cultures it's not okay to shout?
Why don't they learn how to appreciate
Instead of writing about hate?
How can they be accepting when they create new worlds
With kings that are kids and giraffes that are lords?
We should revolt and rebel
And watch as we force the made up worlds that once fell
To forces of evil or those that are for a greater good
Sometimes only raiding because of thier lack of food
Pick up a history book
And have a good look
I'd rather know about the history that is real
Than about a story with a plot that the author did steal

Blue Eyes

There's something about that man
Something memorizing, breathtaking, beautiful
Its magical, and not found in another place
Pray, let it stay, leave it for just another day
I want it, let me have it, I can't bear another day without
In my mind it stays, its loveliness
With a picture it loses its value, it's priceless-ness
It's charm, it's glamour
It dies a little with an everlasting picture
But it's easier to view this than to be rude and stare
Let me look and observe, let it be mine
Even it is just for a moment.
It's his blue eyes you see
Whenever he looks right at me
I'll smile and wink but it won't do the trick
I can never look away
There's so much emotion so much care
That he is not even aware
It's not the word that he says,
Or the poetry that he reads
Or the way that he touches my arm
Or holds my hand.
It's the color of his eyes
That's what makes me emotionally sigh.

Laughter will make you live longer

I'll laugh and laugh as if I've never heard the punchline before
Six glasses of water is what you should drink With each meal;
I'll take two for each meal as doctors orders, and one for the road.
Sleep naked they said, it was an old wives tale;
And so I will underneath my clothes.
Practice, Practice, Pracitice is what the instructors say -
And I do, once with the instrument,
Once without and fingering the notes and a third time while just in my head.
Write and you will be heard, That what my pen said.
And I do whether someone reads this to keep the magic alive or not. 

I Ain't!

I went back, after I put on another shirt to Jack's work. I don't know why, but I did. I had his shirt in my hand too, with full intention of giving it back. As I was putting my hand on the door I realized that I should have washed it, but it was a little late for that.  He had already seen me.
He leaned over the counter and gave me a flirty grin, his teeth were white, and absolutely perfect. They weren't straight, his front teeth were slightly crooked, tilted inward. It made him that more handsome. Ugh, why was I thinking these treacherous thoughts? What about Rascal? I ... loved? ...Him?
"Hiya Sunshine!" It was too late to turn back now, I was already in the coffee house.
"Hey Jack, whats brewing?" Smooth you cheater, how smooth. - Beat - "I brought back your shirt, but I didn't wash it..."
"That's fine sugar, I'll do it myself." Then he winked at me! Alright buddy, That's it.
"Alright, later Jack! See you next week!" And on my heel I turned and walked away! I walked away from him! I walked away from a cheating situation! How honest I am! How wonderful a feeling how... happy I felt!
Walking back to my, our, apartment, I thought of something. Why hadn't Rascal and I ever have sex? Why hadn't we ever gone past that particular kind of situation? It's been two years! Is something wrong with me? Are we in that much of a set routine?
I decided to shake up things a bit, and I called him, at work. My heart throbbing and my mouth growing dry I dialed his number, expecting the worst and expecting the best. Rascal picked up:
"Hello?"
"Hey babe! I just wanted to call and say hi!" I said it a little too cheerily, it sounded like I was up to no good.
"Okay? Hi?" Okay now it was awkward. Awkward pause. Awkward pause.....
"Also could you pick up a pizza or something? I'm feeling like a dinner out." Smile into the phone, everything is good....
"Okay? Sure...? I'll do that. But um, did you get my note? I won't be in till tomorrow afternoon."
"Oh right, well, maybe tomorrow then." I know I sounded desperate.
"Sounds good. Alright, I gotta get back to work. Have a good one."
"Yea, you *click* too. " Well that's food for thought.
He didn't say he loved me, he didn't say he missed me, he didn't say... anything.
Maybe I will go out with Jack, just this once.... What trouble could it cause? Seriously?
