Comment to last blog post

yes there is a reason why I put that song up - I am liking the entire Linkin Park CD actually - it resonates so well of late

Music Rant

ok you know - this new practice of putting only 30 seconds or so of a song on to be played instead of the whole song is BOGUS -

like I want the whole song of what I just put up on my myspace profile - so, since i is only 30 seconds I must send you to a possible unauthorized place - and listen to the whole song here :P http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZIummTz9mM


In other music news, Little T and I were in the halloween store tonight (gawd it is fun watching the last minute costume people and all hehe) but a radio station was there and let little T spin the wheel and she won a CD hehe - so we listened to Duffy on the way home -

interesting sound - especially considering I a dressing as a hippie tomorrow

ok catch ya laters

"Leave Out All The Rest" -- Linkin Park

I dreamed I was missing
You were so scared
But no one would listen
Cause no one else cared

After my dreaming
I woke with this fear
What am I leaving
When I'm done here

So if you're asking me
I want you to know

[Chorus]
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed

And don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory

Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest
[End Chorus]

Don't be afraid
I've taken my beating
I've shared what I made

I'm strong on the surface
Not all the way through
I've never been perfect
But neither have you

So if you're asking me
I want you to know

[Chorus]
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed

Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory

Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest
[End Chorus]

Forgetting
All the hurt inside
You've learned to hide so well

Pretending
Someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are

[Chorus]
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed

Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory

Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting
All the hurt inside
You've learned to hide so well

Pretending
Someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are
I can't be who you are

Damn - what a week

Well – I was running crazy last week. I agreed to substitute for the ag sci teacher, which meant I did all six of her classes and then did ALL of my classes and work too…. I learned a lot about taking care of Poinsettias hehe and some other fun stuff in the greenhouses. In turn I taught the students about GIS and GPS – we started a project and I hope to finish it – the students were great – for the most part :P

Also finding I am in a very different mindset the last few weeks and well, it's very different from where I usually am this time of the year… it is, I am… different

In addition, I had the check engine light come on at the beginning of the week, had to finish grading a kickload of assignments and getting a couple of tests ready.

I also am finding this one class I took on extra – a high school Digital Literacy course taught online, is ending up being way loads more work – but on the plus side, again I am learning a lot and interacting with students from an urban New York City school and let me tell you – big difference from my other students… which is a good experience.

I also had a couple of tech projects come up during the week and then was preparing for my Environmental Science field trip – but I had to postpone that as a storm moved through yesterday – so I had to swap lecture and hope next weekend is nice….

I am creating a powerpoint jeopardy review for the environmental science course as they liked it last time and they said it helped… I hope so
Halloween coming up and I am planning on a major dork costume this year – the theme – what happens when a goth and a hippie end up in a transporter accident hehehe I am going to be a goppie or a hipoth hehe I will be taking votes as to which is the better name

Basically my shoes, t shirt and a few jewelry accessories are goth in origin and the leather frayed vest, tye dye rainbow headband, blue jeans, and some jewelry are hippie in nature – eh something kooky and fun

I have been playing a bit in a couple new RP's – one is based off of Sanctuary tv show – I am liking that a lot – I put it on a new page I made for my web site – a fav web tv shows hehe

But the show, Sanctuary, on Sci Fi is good… been also getting a lot of series and shows as I mentioned through Netflix – almost caught up with the new Doctor Who, working through Urban Gothic, the Muppets and a bunch more…

Well – hoping this week is a bit more routine : )

Happy Metric Day, New song, keeping hope

Ok - yesterday (10/10) was Metric day - so celebrate and go out and walk a km or drink a liter : )

Also was teacher in-service for the high school - taught a couple of workshops and then was off to teach Environmental (working through Earth materials and plate tectonics - wheeeee

Made it through lab this morning and now about to go for a walk - hit the comic book shop, then go pick up ingredients to make lots of fruity drinks for tonight as I watch the first disc of a British series called Urban Gothic, which looks to be very cool as the first episode has Jemma Roper in it who I like form another British series - Hex (although Hex was basically a teen soap opera with the theme of witchcraft lmao) - also been watching the retooled Sanctuary on Sci-Fi - will be starting up a writing group for that (I get to play Helen - boo-yaaa) and setting up another group for the tv shows Bloodties (I get to play Vicki - triple booooooo-yaaaaaaaa)

So yes, lots of fun tonight....

Also changed up song on My space - found this one (lyrics below) and decided to try and keep it in mind and hope... I tend to get very thinky this time of year, maybe this time will be different.... maybe not... ah well, I got my walk, show and fruity :P

Gotta Be Somebody- Nickelback

This time I wonder what it feels like
To find the one in this life
The one we all dream of
But dreams just aren't enough
So I´ll be waiting for the real thing.
I know it by the feeling.

The moment when we´re meeting
Will play out like a scene straight off the silver screen
So I`ll be holdin’ my breath
Right up to the end
Until that moment when
I find the one that I spend forever with

`Cause nobody wants to be the last one there.
'Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares.
Someone to love with my life in their hands.
There`s gotta be somebody for me like that.

`Cause nobody wants to go it on their own
And everyone wants to know they´re not alone.
Somebody else that feels the same somewhere.
There`s gotta be somebody for me out there.

Tonight out on the street out in the moonlight
And damn it this feels too right
It´s just like Déjà Vu
Me standin’ here with you
So I´ll be holdin`my breath
Could this be the end?
Is it that moment when
I find the one that I spend forever with?

‘Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
'Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares.
Someone to love with my life in their hands.
There´s gotta be somebody for me like that.

`Cause nobody wants to go it on their own
And everyone wants to know they´re not alone.
Is there somebody else that feels the same somewhere?
There`s gotta be somebody for me out there.

You can´t give up!
Lookin´ for that diamond in the rough
Because you never know when it shows up
Make sure you´re holdin` on
‘Cause it could be the one, the one you´re waiting on

‘Cause nobody wants to be the last one there.
'Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares.
Someone to love with my life in their hands.
There has gotta be somebody for me
Ohhhhhh.


Nobody wants to go it on their own
And everyone wants to know they´re not alone.
Is there somebody else that feels the same somewhere?
There `s gotta be somebody for me out there.

Nobody wants to be the last one there
And everyone wants to feel like someone cares.
Is there somebody else that feels the same somewhere?
There has gotta be somebody for me out there.

October already here

Wow October is here, ups and downs in this month

I like Halloween, Theresa and I already decorating a little and majorstuff this weekend.

But it is also Breast Cancer month, in fact Friday is Denim and pink day at the high school - Next Wednesday is my mom's birthday - she died from breast cancer.... strange irony, but then the world loves irony, sarcasm, sadism... well, ok, I am getting funky again, and please excuse me if I do for the next bit, this time period and the anniversary of when she died always give me the blues... but... halloween is around the corner and so is a very busy October....

I shall wear my pink ribbon with happy thoughts, but... sometimes I have to take the ribbon off... sometimes
