'T' and a 'V'

So this is my second quote me (yea!!) and there's actually a background story to it.

My little sister and I were laying on my parents bed watching tv. I think she was (obviously) really tired or, now that I think about it, she was possibly being serious.. Anyway, she randomly goes:

"I hate it how they put a 't' and a 'v' for tv. I hate it but I love it!"

Yup that's right, we're all nuts at my house!!

Had a Kind of Poetry to It

For all of you looneys out there, the title of this post is a quote from one of the best shows ever, Firefly. And to anyone who knows of this beasty show, sorry my post isn't about it.

So why the heck did I name it this?

My sister also has a blog (link here!) and she is always putting her friends poems on it. (well, really she says always but since she only has 3 of them it doesn't exactly qualify as 'always' so in my opinion she's just a plain goof)

Anyway so here they are: (yes, all three.. have fun reading that!)


Falling in love is a dangerous thing.
there's no telling just where you might land,
and no telling if you'll just keep falling
or if someone will put out their hand.
Putting faith like that into a lover
doesn't make for a true love at all,
it just leads to dependence and heartbreak
and pain when you land from the fall.
Saying someone is the sun in your sky
and the reason the stars are so bright
can lead to infinite cloudy days
and a velvety blackness each night.
And saying that you live only for them
or they are the beats of your heart
puts you at risk for a premature death
if it happens to all fall apart.
Declaring that they are all you see
and that they are each breath that you take
will in time affect you with blindness
or cause you to suffocate.
These are mistakes that all lovers make
that they usually don't even see,
they don't realize the true definition of love,
the kind that lasts for eternity.

well...
My love for you isn't like that.

You aren't the reason my sun shines each day
Your are not the only one I can see.
You didn't put all of the stars in the sky
nor are you every breath come from me.
you're not the reason my heart keeps on beating,
my life does not center on you,
I am not hopeless if i cant be yours...
without you to myself I'm still true.

instead...

I want to share the sunlight with you,
the warmth on our faces as we walk,
I want to be with you under the stars...
just sitting close with no need to talk.
Instead of you being all that i see
I want to see everything with you.
Our dreams and fears and hopes and trials,
and everything we do.
And every breath I can share with you
is one that would be treasured...
and laying close, it'd be so amazing
to feel our hearts beating together.
who i am is not determined by "us",
I do not desperately need you,
But I'd enjoy your close company more than you know...
i guess that's what i mean when i say "i love you".

"As I glance down at the beautiful blade,
Remembering all of the horrible mistakes I made,
Tears cascading down my cheek,
Feeling dead and spiritually weak.

Pretty pills lay on the table beside me,
Resorting to this perverted remedy,
I plan to shear open wounds unto my skin,
Realizing the darkness shining within.

But here stands a picture of my savior, my soul mate,
The one who has morphed my awful fate.
What would they say of my cruel mind?
Would I be leaving something behind?

I lower the razor of fate to the floor,
I refuse to let myself cry anymore.
Too much keeps me by my beloved's side,
I slowly realize it's only part of me that died.

So I gaze towards the once empty Heaven's in prayer,
Knowing now that I can find Him anywhere.

When I feel lost or in eternal pain,
When I feel like life is in utter disdain,
I look to him and smile,
And know life isn't all that vile."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"What does the richest man want but can not buy?
What is the correct answer to every "why"?
What's superior to perfection, what's inferior to sin?
What's safer than protection, what's more interior than in?
What's luckier than seven, what's healthier than well?
What's better than heaven, what's worse than hell?
What's shorter than a moment, what's longer than forever?
What in the world has existed never?
What doesn't happen for a reason?
What's colder than freezin'?
What can a blind man see, what can a numb person feel?
What's more than everything, what's less than not anything?
What can make each moment reappear?
What can make everything disappear?
What's darker than black, what can a deaf man hear?
What rhymes with silver, purple, orange, or month?
What's hotter than the Z Machine, what's faster than light?
What's more unlucky than thirteen, what's lighter than white?
What's bigger than the universe, whats smaller than an atom?
The answer is something we simply can not fathom."



Oh, and I almost forgot, because of recent events, I decided that I would write my own short, really bad poem. Here goes:

"When I look at you, I cringe.." (Nobody ever said poems have to rhyme and besides, for some people this probably did have a kind of poetry to it! jk)

Spontaneous

What does spontaneous mean? To me it means "me" but then a lot of words could be used to describe me..

Whenever I hear it though, it reminds me of happy feet.. (yea if you clicked the link you understood why)

But anyway, the dictionary doesn't agree with me. It's definition of spontaneous is "given to acting upon sudden impulses."

That's too complicated for a lot of people in this world so i'll just say it's "random."

Yea so that was it..

Quote Me

I love quotes, especially good ones. They're so fun! :) But anyway.. here's my quote of the day. (i'll try to keep you guys updated with my quotes but you know me, i don't exactly get on every day.. still, i'll try)

So yup, my 'Quote Me' (that's what i'm calling it) quote is "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, and i probably deserved it!"

Hope you enjoyed and got the true meaning of the quote. (Which wasn't wow jessica you deserve a lot, it was me begging you not to fool/confuse me!)

Love Story

Yea so this is pretty much my favorite country song ever (and possibly my song of the month) which isn't that big since basically the only country I listen to is Taylor Swift (and yup this is her newest) plus a couple other people. Anyway:

"We were both young when I first saw you.
I close my eyes and the flashback starts:
I'm standing there on a balcony in summer air.

See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns.
See you make your way through the crowd
and say hello;

Little did I know
That you were Romeo; you were throwing pebbles,
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet."
And I was crying on the staircase,
begging you, 'Please, don't go.'"

And I said,
"Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone.
I'll be waiting; all there's left to do is run.
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story - baby just say 'Yes.'"

So I sneak out to the garden to see you.
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew.
So close your eyes; escape this town for a little while.
'Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter,
And my daddy said "Stay away from Juliet,"
But you were everything to me; I was begging you, 'Please, don't go,'"

And I said,
"Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone.
I'll be waiting; all there's left to do is run.
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story - baby just say 'Yes.'

Romeo save me - they're tryin' to tell me how to feel;
This love is difficult, but it's real.
Don't be afraid; we'll make it out of this mess.
It's a life story - baby just say "Yes.'"

Oh.

I got tired of waiting,
Wondering if you were ever comin' around.
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town,

And I said,
"Romeo save me - I've been feeling so alone.
I keep waiting for you but you never come.
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think-"

He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said,
"Marry me, Juliet - you'll never have to be alone.
I love you and that's all I really know.
I talked to your dad - go pick out a white dress;
It's a love story - baby just say 'Yes.'"

Oh, oh.

We were both young when I first saw you..."

Nothing Gold Can Stay

nature's first green is gold
her hardest hue to hold
her early leaf's a flower
but only so an hour
then leaf subsides to leaf
so eden sank to grief
so dawn goes down today
nothing gold can stay

That was a poem i had to learn for my english class this year. It's in the book we were reading, The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton. The book was ok and i have no clue why i'm posting about it. It was actually pretty good (but kind of random and they say dig a lot because it's a 60's book)so yea.. The movie was really dumb. If you want to know how old the book is, here's a hint: Tom Cruise played Steve, one of the main character's seventeen year old friend.

OCD

OK has anyone else read twilight? I haven't been on in forever so I figured why not do a post on the best books ever!! :) Oh and the title is OCD because I have been recently diagnosed with Obsessive Cullen Disorder. (Yes, I'm serious.)

I started reading them over the summer and immediately fell in love. (particularly with Edward :]) I usually wouldn't go search out a vampire story if I wanted to find a good book, but I absolutely loved those books!! :D

Guess what?! I just deleted a lot of my post because it was seriously longer than even my dad or mom's posts and I wasn't anywhere near done. So I decided instead of making you read the longest thing in your life, you can comment your thoughts on twilight and i can comment mine. Sounds like fun, yea I think i'll do that..

:)
