Plugging away to the end of semester and stuff

Finals week for one college class I teach and last lecture and lab this week for the other with final next Tuesday. My students conned me into driving out to the college yesterday to hold a review for them. I am such a push over - hour drive out and back to help them review... but I was glad some showed up and if it helps them... then that is what matters.

That is the type of person I am - kinda pain in the ass for me - but it matters to me to help people out and do stuff. So many people today don't take the extra step or only sometimes do or even end up getting kicked or ignored

I figure enough shit comes from other sources why be a source of that myself... of course that leads to sucker being printed on forehead and ending up in situations that are really more pain than pleasure... but I keep sticking my hand out to help and sometimes yeah it gets chopped off... I suppose the practical side of me knows one day the hand does not grow back, one day I do not hold it out...

But until then working to remain optimistically, naive and blonde and moving forward with my half catching on to things and blushing when I finally figure it out attitude to life - lol

Well I now am going to become an expert in Welding - yup you read that right and I am LMAO - I am now co writing the Welding curriculum for the high school along with having the Allied Medical curriculum added to my ever growing list of summer projects to over see. Wheeeeeeee no two days are ever quite the same at work - fun and insanity wrapped into one - hey that describes me very well - :-D

Also working on writing other curriculum and lesson plans - working on one how to purchase Cell phones and such - man-o-man I stared at standards last night until I went nuts - hurray for posting and writing and RPGs saving my sanity - need more saving though - lol

Got tickets to go see Tori Amos in August managed to con someone from work to go with me - actually same person I am going with Sunday to see Lisa Marie Presley at the historic Stone Pony in Asbury Park - oh yeahhhhhhh and Good Charlotte and Reliant K next Friday

Music and writing the things that keep me sane through all the pressure and projects and crappolla - need someone around to share the insanity with - hehehe

Some songs to share

Garbage - Why Do I Love You

I'm no barbie doll
I'm not your baby girl
I've done ugly things and I have made mistakes
And I am not as pretty as those girls in magazines
I am rotten to my core if they're to be believed
So what if I'm no baby bird hanging upon your every word?
Nothing ever smells of roses that rises out of mud

Why do you love me (times 2)
Why do you love me, it's driving me crazy
Why do you love me (times 2)
Why do you love me, it's driving me crazy
Why do you love me (times 2)
Why do you love me, it's driving me crazy

You're not some baby boy
Why you acting so surprised
You're sick of all the rules
Well I'm sick of all your lies
Now I've held back a wealth of shit, I think I'm gonna choke
I'm standing in the shadows with the words stuck in my throat
Does it really come as a surprise when I tell you I don't feel good?
Nothing ever came from nothing man
Oh man, ain't that the truth

I get back up and I do it again (times 4)

Do it again (times 3)

Why do you love me (times 2)
Why do you love me, it's driving me crazy
Why do you love me (times 2)
Why do you love me, it's driving me crazy
Why do you love me (times 2)
Why do you love me, it's driving me crazy
Why do you love me (times 4)

I think you're sleeping with a friend of mine
I have no proof but I think that I'm right
And you've still got the most beautiful face
It just makes me sad most of the time

I get back up and I do it again (times 4)

Do it again (times 3)

Why do you love me (times 2)
Why do you love me, it's driving me crazy
Why do you love me (times 2)
Why do you love me, it's driving me crazy
Why do you love me (times 4)


Tori Amos - Crucify (excellent lyric writer - she is cool)

Every finger in the room
is pointing at me
I wanna spit in their faces
Then I get afraid of what that could bring
I got a bowling ball in my stomach
I got a desert in my mouth
Figures that my courage would choose to sell our now
I've been looking for a savior in these dirty streets
looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
I've been raising up my hands
Drive another nail in
Just what God needs
One more victim

[Chorus:]
Why do we
Crucify ourselves
Every day
I crucify myself
Nothing I do is good enough for you
Crucify myself
Every day
And my heart is sick of being in chains

Got a kick for a dog
Beggin' for Love
I gotta have my suffering
So that I can have my cross
I know a cat named Easter
He says will you ever learn
You're just an empty cage girl
If you kill the bird
I've been looking for a savior in these dirty streets
looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
I've been raising up my hands
Drive another nail in
Got enough guilt to start
my own religion
Please be
Save me
I cry

[Chorus:]
Why do we
Crucify ourselves
Every day
I crucify myself
Nothing I do is good enough for you
Crucify myself
Every day
And my heart is sick of being in chains


Relient K - "In Love With The 80's (Pink Tux To The Prom)

so it was Jeremy in 1983
in his ocean pacific t
who got a bloody knee
on his skateboard
in the half pipe
in the backyard
that Tuesday night

and i'm only gonna pierce my left ear
and i've been working on this mustache all summer long
and my favorite band will always be tears for fears
and i'm gonna wear a pink tux to the prom

cutting class through the first floor window
he's driving fast cause he never did a thing slow
and i look up to my big bro
cause in the 80's all the ladies grabbed his hand and couldn't let go

and i'm only gonna pierce my left ear
and i've been working on this mustache all summer long
and my favorite band will always be tears for fears
and i'm gonna wear a pink tux to the prom (a pink tux to the prom)

doo doo, a doo doo doo
pink tux to the prom
doo doo, a doo doo doo
pink tux to the prom

i am gonna wear a pink tux to the prom
live without a care...what could possibly go wrong?

when you're president of the breakfast club
and you're not hesitant to fall in love (to fall in love)
to throw it away to fall in love with the 80's

i am gonna wear a pink tux to the prom
live without a care...what could possibly go wrong?
i am gonna wear a pink tux to the prom
live without a care...
cause you threw it away to fall in love with the 80's

doo doo, a doo doo
doo doo, a doo doo
doo doo, a doo doo
