Butterfly

Apparently there was a miscommunication, people thought that the song Butterfly was on my blog lol. Well due to popular demand here it is =) I hope u enjoy it as much as I do lol.

I'm Baaaaaccck!!

First of all I want to apologize for keeping my public waiting. I realized this blog is very important to me no matter how many stupid comments I make or how infinitely lost it is in cyber space. It's an outlet and a damn good one at that =) lol. Now that I'm finished with the introduction i wanted to talk today about the power of music.

I LOVE music, every since i was a screaming toddler I thought that the wretched noises coming out of me were harmonies lol. Anyways in my new job at ADI I spend the whole day listening to Pandora.com just listening. sometimes the right song hits the spot, it can be an old familiar one or one that I've never heard but their lyrics choke me up. It;s pretty pathetic actually having a worker sobbing in the corner because the imagery of the song is too strong, or beautiful.. but I only do that when everyone has left the office =P.

I may be the only crazy person who actually wants to see herself on the beach alone, with a radio, hearing these "things" reaching my ears matching the rhythm of the waves painting a picture of serenity in my mind. We're in college, we'll all grow up soon. What do you want to be when you grow up? I don't care, as long as I never lose this feeling. It's a feeling of want, of incompleteness that makes you reach for what you do and in the process leads you to beautiful things, in this case sounds... its love =) these songs are producing love for me. its love and hope and happiness and makes me me X). I'm sorry I'm getting mushy but I'm listening to I'm yours by Jason Mraz right now and this is the product of such a wonderful melody. I wish i was at the beach right now lol

Lately I've been listening to a lot of Kid Rock, Fanny Lu, and Jason Mraz. I do not know if they are the original songwriters, but the combined efforts of everyone in their party always produce masterpieces.

anyways, enough of the mushy stuff.. remember to listen always, not just to the pleasantries of the melody but to the lyrics as well. People who take the time to write for you should be heard, especially if it is not commercialized.

Peace and Love,

always =)

Which do you prefer?

For about a year now a war has sprung between two online "friend" sites. Similar to the Cola Wars, most people are consumers of both and or have their favorite. So let's examine them for a bit

Myspace:
www.myspace.com

Myspace is the original addiction of many teeny boppers. It has followed us from high school to college and is still the dominating sight for "Friends".

Pros:
Music. you can decorate your own profile with videos, music from artists online, or add your own.
Backgrounds: in order to add to your individuality you can change your background with different layouts or your own pictures.
Privacy: Myspace is definitely more private than facebook. Basic myspace does not tell others what you are doing every minute of the day, therefore making you look less like you have no life and only spend time on that certain site.

Cons:
Loss of popularity: nowadays people can't wait for the next big thing. Unfortunately myspace is a passing fad and people are starting to notice the loss of its popularity. This in turn gives them incentive to delete their profiles and leaves you with less friends =(.
Less Use: Why would you want to use a site that only connects you to five friends?

Facebook:
www.facebook.com

Facebook started off as a get together site for college students. As its popularity grew, it expanded to being a networking system for anyone.

Pros:
Applications: The applications on facebook allow you to be more interactive with your friends online. Poking and handing out bumber stickers allow you to tell your friends you're thinking of them without leaving comments.
Wall to Wall: In the original stages of networking sites, facebook was the first to create the Wall to Wall application.
Pictures, facebook was the first to allow you to put up unlimited pictures and allowed you to tag buddies.

Cons:
NOoooooooooooooo Privacy: even though its an option this should be a hassle, facebook has no privacy when it comes to your actions and forwards what you're doing to the world.
Photos: Only 60 pictures fit in an album
Facebook is like the NSYNC of Boy bands. Biters...

Well can you guess which one i prefer? DING DING DING, myspace for me is the more wholesome and the most basic one with all your needs. Yes bumper stickers are nice, but I prefer a profile with music. Take the poll and tell me which one you prefer and Google Cola Wars on the tool bar below cuz they're cool =)

Happy Easter!!

I hope its filled with love and chocolate <3>

If you do any of these u suck at kissing...

Are you a good kisser?

By Nicole Kristal

Basically u suck if you perform any of these oral acts, I read this article on MSN.com and thought it was too good to pass up, so boys: learn and girls: avoid boys who don't learn.. k thanks muaz!

The Vampire Lip-Sucker

When my date Andrew first started biting and sucking on my lower lip, I tried to redirect the kiss by going for his upper lip. But when he kept doing it and my lip began to throb, I pulled away with a not-so subtle, “Ow.” He didn’t take the hint and with each tug, my lip grew rawer. The next day, at a family barbecue, everyone wondered why I had a purple lower lip. Sure, a soft bite on the lip can be a turn on, but 10 in a row can leave your date looking like she got punched in the mouth. The first sign of a bad kisser is the inability to respond to feedback (sorry, Andrew; it’s true). If you’re not getting a positive response, don’t be afraid to stray from a move that you thought worked on someone else. Bad kissers often make the mistake of hoping you’ll grow to like whatever weird thing they’re doing. This almost never works and almost always leaves your lover bemoaning your inexperience.

The Speed Racer

Another common attribute of a bad kisser is out-of-sync kisses that don’t match the other person’s rhythm. Just as relationships are about finding a happy medium, kissers should try to conform to a mutual speed. The one time I made out with Sean, he threw on a Prodigy album, and then proceeded to kiss me faster than the driving techno beat. When he wouldn’t slow down, I politely grooved my way right out his door.

I have a tongue, too, thank you

Tom was a good-looking, smart guy who played guitar and opened every door for me, but he also had a knack for filling my entire mouth with his imperialistic tongue, which completely crushed mine as it recklessly reached for my tonsils. No matter what I did, I couldn’t remove it, mostly because my own tongue seemed to have disappeared. Lots of oral offenders’ tongues make the mistake of setting up permanent residence in their dates’ mouths. The tongue should be about playful give and take: Tease, then pull back. If that gets a positive response, venture a little further, but never leave your date thinking, “What the heck happened to my tongue?” or “Red alert: Suffocation setting in!”

Mr. Hoover

Mr. Hoover is the opposite of the previous smoocher—he likes to suck your tongue right out of your mouth and hold onto it. If your date’s entire head is unwillingly following yours because you’re holding her tongue hostage, that’s probably not a good thing. Tongue suction is tricky. Unless you know exactly the amount of suction to exert and the duration to hold your partner’s tongue captive (Hint: it’s not five minutes), you’re treading into Bad Kisser Land.

The Cheek-Licker

Licking or lapping your date’s cheek will leave him or her either (a) grossed out or (b) laughing. Licking people’s faces isn’t hot. (I don’t care if your girlfriend freshman year loved it; she was one in a million, maybe 100 million.) When it comes to kissing, the tongue should make contact with two — and only two — places above the shoulders besides the mouth—the neck and the ear. But if you shoot for these erogenous zones, don’t overdo it. Wet willies and hickeys are for amateurs.
