Que Magnifico

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Black bird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
all your life
you were only waiting for this moment to be free

Blackbird fly, Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.

Blackbird fly, Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise,oh
You were only waiting for this moment to arise, oh
You were only waiting for this moment to arise



A wonderful cover of the Beatles song. Sung by Sarah McLauchlan.

We do it for love.

Why is it that we do some pretty crazy ass shit for love? Good crazy things or not so good crazy things. I love my boy. More than anyone else in the world. My bestfriend, my boyfriend, my Jeremy. I seriously don't know any other boy that would go to school with me and sit in the library for 2 and half hours while I'm in class because I hate riding lightrail alone. Only my Jeremy would do that. =) And no other boy would put up with my shit. But "we do it for love."

There’ll be girls across the nation that will eat this up.
Babe I know that it’s your soul but could you bottle it up.
Get down to the heart of it.
No, it’s my heart.
You’re shit out of your luck.
Don’t make me tell you again my love, love, love, love.
Love, love, love, love.

I am aiming to be somebody this somebody trusts with her delicate soul.
I don’t claim to know much,
Except soon as you start to make room for the parts that aren’t you,
It gets harder to bloom in a garden of love, love, love, love.
Love, love, love, love.

Only thing I ever could need,
Only one good thing worth trying to be and it’s love, love, love, love.
I do it for love, love, love, love.

We can understand the sentiment you’re saying to us.
Oh, but sensible sells so could you kindly shut up,
And get started at keeping your part of the bargain.
Aw please little darlin’,
You’re killing me sweetly with love, love, love, love.
Love, love, love, love.

Only thing I ever could need.
Only one good thing worth trying to be and it's love, love, love, love.
I do it for love, love, love, love.

Started as a flicker meant to be a flame.
Skin has gotten thicker but it burns the same.
Still a baby in a cradle got to take my first fall.
Baby’s getting next to nowhere with a back against the wall.
You meant to make me happy, make me sad.
Want to make it better better so bad.
But save your resolutions for your never new year.
There is only one solution I can see here.

Love you’re all I ever could need.
Only one good thing worth trying to be and it’s love, love, love, love.
I do it for love, love, love, love.
(Oh, only gonna get get what you give away, so give love, love.
Only gonna get get what you give away.
Love.)

Words on Paper

I like reading. I like reading when the story is good. If the story isn't good, it shouldn't even be considered a book. But then again, you might like a story that I don't like. So it's all opinion. I want to buy every book I want. I wanted so many books at Border's and I had to narrow it down to one. So, I bought "Vagina Monologues." It's just a bunch of random stories and poems about vaginas, literally. Some of them are gross. I don't think a male would enjoy this book. O: I want philosophy books, sociology books, romantic novels, and other useless shit books.

Why is it so hot? It's September. Dame un break! Geewhiz.

Only a month left until I turn eighteen. Hello porn, real-person jail, and cigarettes. Yeah right. More like "hello real world, time to grow up."

Men are creepy.

I hate public transit. Not because it's inconvenient, not because it takes too long, but because of the creepy men on it. Everytime I'm alone on it, some creepy man has to sit next to me and start asking me weird ass questions. NO buddy, I don't want your company. I am reading my book and listening to my iPod for a reason, go away. I told my dad he needs to buy me some pepper spray. He said he'll buy me a taser gun instead. But seriously, men talk about the most awkward things. When I talk to a woman stranger, the conversation is much less intimidating and weird. The conversation goes two ways and I don't feel like I'm being interviewed.

Other than public transit, I love college. It's fun, exciting, social, and something new.

Summer is over.

Yes, it is true. Summer is pretty much over for me. I start school on Monday. Bahumbug. Last time I checked, school was a month away. I didn't even go to the beach ONCE this whole entire summer. This week, I've been working on my new room. Monday I painted ALL day with Jill and Jeremy. I was getting so frustrated cause it wasn't coming out the way I thought it was going to. And also because Jill and Jeremy weren't doing things my way. I learned that I'm an extremely impatient person this week. And things have to be done my way or I'll be a bitch. I guess it's because I get so stressed out and overwhelmed with the amount of work I see around me and I realize how much needs to get done. I should work on that. Anyways, we spent day one painting everything and moving everything out of my room. My living room was pretty much suffocated in all my shit. My drawers, stuft animals, and other uselss shit. Seeing it made me realize what a hoarder I am. Day two consisted of touching up the paint spots we missed and going to Ikea to buy my new furniture. My rooms small so I wanted a loft to save room. So I bought myself a metal loft and a desk to put underneath it, it's pretty convenient and wonderful. I love it. Day three was consisted of building the furniture and then setting everything up in my room and moving everything back into my room. And now, it is done. Complete. Finito. I was so excited last night. I absolutely love it too. I couldn't have done it without the help of my wonderful friends though. And I apologize for being an obsessive bitch in the process, that's just how I get.

Although, I couldn't sleep last night. I was tossing and turning. I was constantly thinking "omg, what if there's an earthquake? Am I going to fall off and die?" So I ended up falling asleep at 4:40 AM. And I had to be up at 8:00 this morning to go to SJSU with Jeremy. It sucked, I didn't want to go anymore cause I was so tired, but I did. I picked up my books and we stayed for a while during this convocation thing that was going on. It was pretty boring so we left.

And tonight I might go on a hike with Jill and the family up to Alum Rock.
