...3, as in 3 times better than the 4 times better than good that I thought it was gonna be.

That would add up to a whole lot of times better than I expected, which, in short, just means WOW. Last night I went to The Derby with T to see the 2am Club kill another show. Manohman. They are a force, really. It's almost ridiculous how good they are.... ughhhhhhhhh.

*Watch them on youtube NOW. Search 2am Club*

I have a goal to get 4 songs DONE done by October 26th. I don't know if I told you that yet.. My parents want me to try out for Idol at the end of July and I'm not too sure about the whole tv show againnn haha. Hm. It's weird how many different routes there are that could possibly lead me to where I wanna be and how few I would actually be satisfied with taking. Very stubborn, very picky. I think I am one of those people with too much pride and not enough greed for fame. I wanna come out and write all my own words and talk about what I wanna talk about and I don't wanna have to wait 2 years into a commercialized & fabricated career before I'm ALLOWED to do so. Things would be so much easier if it weren't for my hard headedness, haha. Ah.

Anyway, I'm working on one of the songs right now and I basically sound like I swallowed Fantasia Barino. Don't know how I feel about this yet, but we'll see.

Love you,
Love, me.

...my awareness.

Manohman. I had one of the best days I have had in a long time... I can pretty confidently chalk it under one of the best days ever. It's kind of sad because I'm too off of a person to actually let it show that that was fact. I hung out with M and have basically come to the conclusion that I am just not as dope as I need to be, haha. There are people in my world that are just on a completely different level and unless I find a way to reach that within myself, it's never gonna make it out to the world. Crazyyyy, those guys... M especially. Not just because I have a ridiculous fan-to-rockstar slash just-plain-ridiculously-school-girl-like crush on him. But because he is one of the two (MB being the other) most talented people I know. Which then cradles said crush. How can so much genius be contained in one person? And how can one person be contained in Millvalley? Depressing.

I was priveliged enough to be able to sit in on their rehearsal, and of course I was way too cool to show that I was geeking out inside and pretty much needed to pee my pants on the rough little chair situation I was in.

That whole thing was one sentence just now, haha.

Anyway, I'm dumb for not being as excited outside as I was inside, but it's whatever... Maybe I'm that weirdo girl whose emotions only show when they fall apart onstage in front of a mic stand and a bleeding spotlight. Amaright? We'll see... I hope.

Oh, wow I completely forgot why I titled this blog what I titled this blog. I need to study up on my craft. And my world... happenings.. current events! There we go. And I need a 4 song EP by Oct. 26. And a band. And probably somewhere in between I should get... yea, I should get a life.

Love you,
Love, me.

...ex marks the spot.

there's a place there
just beyond the side
where i think about things
where i think about you

there's a space where
most of all the time
i'm reminded of days
i'm reminded of new

i've seen joy in there
i've seen acts unjust
so many memories
with too much to find

there's a place where
just within my trust
ex marks the spot
that your mistake left behind

Love you,
Love, me.

...am/a.m.

too early in the day
and already it runs
the unspoken pains
of what the world's become
much to think about
so much to dread
not enough answers
and hardly any light shed
her eyes are teased,
taunted by the stars
a child's game of hide/seek,
fading away into the dark
with so many rays
and warmth to come
i am her again
she is/a.m. the sun
but then it pours and it pouts
and the sanity gnaws
i am/a.m. darkness
she, we are/our dawn.

Love you,
Love, me.

...Pray

For hope.
For clarity,
for change.
For an end.
For new beginnings,
for things to stay the same.

For rubble.
For obstacles,
for a challenge.
For drive.
For hunger
for the ability to manage.

For truth.
For love.
For lust.
For use
in losses
in matters of the heart, and such.

For fun.
For learning.
For time.
Let us pray
to be delivered
from scandal and lies.

From evil.
From darkness
from temptations in life.
Let us pray
to never be quitters.

For answers.
For friendship.
For passion.
For him to never hit her.

For her to remember
to feed him.
For their scars
their bruises
to heal.

For him to never quit.
For her to find herself.
For us to know that God is real.

Let us pray for eachother.
Let us pray for a second
and with all of our faith combined.
Let us pray for dreams
and pray for reailty
to playfully, to beautifully intertwine.

For food.
For water,
the neccessities.
Let us pray to pray to cry
for our pains to release
from our hopeless woes,
Let prayer uncover our corporate eyes.

Love you,
Love, me.
