the more you know...womp WOMP haha

random fact to start off this blog...but, i was watching NBC tonite...and i saw one of "the more you know" commercials...those commercials, are a little redundant, in my opinion...a little on the conservative side.

in other news, i saw the new dixie chicks video today. and let me just say, i loved it. those girls really put it to the American public...i mean, just because they are famous doesnt mean they aren't allowed to voice their opinions. America has this thing about, if someone is famous, they should do their job and keep their mouths shut about anything else...like famous people aren't allowed to form opinions...one of the country stations here in town even "banned" the dixie chicks music from being played on their station...oh That will get them...thats like when the US got mad at the french, and we came up with "freedom fries" and "freedom toast"...anyway...i think what the dixie chicks did was pretty great, it took a lot of guts for them to do that...read the lyrics...

"Not Ready To Make Nice" Dixie Chicks
Forgive, sounds good
Forget, I’m not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I’m still waiting

I’m through with doubt
There’s nothing left for me to figure out
I’ve paid a price
And I’ll keep paying

I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

I know you said
Can’t you just get over it
It turned my whole world around
And I kind of like it

I made my bed and I sleep like a baby
With no regrets and I don’t mind sayin’
It’s a sad sad story when a mother will teach her
Daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger
And how in the world can the words that I said
Send somebody so over the edge
That they’d write me a letter
Sayin’ that I better shut up and sing
Or my life will be over

I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

Forgive, sounds good
Forget, I’m not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I’m still waiting

a change of pace and place

well i've decided that i'm going to stop making this some kind of over melo dramatic blog...its time for a change...

i got home from school about a week ago...and I have to say it is pretty strange. I am slowly readjusting to everything and getting used to not being on my own. I keep praying for patience and to keep in mind that my parents are overjoyed for me to be home. I have to stop acting like a brat, the summer will be over before I know it. I should enjoy this time of not having classes...but I honestly can hardly function without my friends. I depend on them a lot more than I thought I did. I know that once we get back, it will be even better than it was this past semester. My friends at school now that I hang out with I just met basically two months ago and we became closer than anything. I hang out with carl and cameron like everyday and we always get lunch and dinner together...and sarah and I hang out like 24/7 basically, like attatched at the hip. She popped up in my life right when I was beginning to think that most of the girls at school were self absorbed. I thank God everyday for my friends now. I never have any drama to deal with, and if there is any sortof situation that needs to be worked out, we do it face to face without a go between. We aren't worried about stuff like that, it saves a lot of grief in the end. Anyway...I am going to go and finish my frappe' and go back to my house. I'll be updating soon with some pictures hopefully!!! :) a new entry to come soon, i promise!

God Bless!
