In Memory of Cassandra

Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man Don't sit around gossiping, explaining what your good man really can do Some women nowadays, Lord they ain't no good They will laugh in your face, Then try to steal your man from you Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man Don't be no fool

Pitseleh

I'll tell you why I don't want to know where you are
I got a joke I been dying to tell you
a silent kid is looking down the barrel
to make the noise that I kept so quiet
I kept it from you, pitseleh
I'm not what's missing from your life now
I could never be the puzzle pieces
they say that god makes problems
just to see what you can stand
before you do as the devil pleases
and give up the thing you love
but no one deserves it
the first time I saw you I knew it would never last
I'm not half what I wish I was
I'm so angry
I don't think it'll ever pass
and i was bad news for you just because
I never meant to hurt you


--elliot smith



elliot smith will be missed.
goodnight and godbless.

’and I am not frightened of dying, any time will do, i
Don’t mind. why should I be frightened of dying?
There’s no reason for it, you’ve gotta go sometime.’
’i never said I was frightened of dying.’


MUSIC!


and so another one act will happily consume me, only to blush in comparison to asylum. You all have to come out and support ally and me on nov 14, 15, 21, or 22. The 17th is my 19th birthday.... not the other way around!

Im managing to put all my friends through the true test. We'll see how many of them can take it. I've begun to come clean. I'm encouraging it. Don't you want to say whats weighing you down? You'll never be free. Don't run away, just let it fall.

Whats in in blogging? Being "uncomfortably deep" is the new sex. No, that wasn't some dumb innuendo. Yeah its true, I'm self-absorbed. I dont think i need the army tho. I appreciate ur listening. Just cuz we're irish women. . .

only barry understands me...

barry manilow, barry white... u know what i'm talking 'bout...

undying love always seems like such a good idea at the time.

let me take this opportunity to thank all of my friends who think joe and i are bad for each other. Thank you for caring.

its the 21st... u know what that means.........

everyone is dying just to get the disease...

Another day another way to make it through
If you could be there you'd know it too
I'll go away when it's all done
And you'll fight your nightmares in the sun

So much said in such a short time
And I'm feeling down with rhyme
Thinking about things that have no place
In my house of work or tender space

I'll want for you and cry those tears
You'll spin me fast and confuse my cares
And I'll lose the sun among the skies
And looks that float from ocean eyes



There is something about the word "romance" that makes some men shake in their boots. Is it the hard "rrrr" sound? Does it remind you of pirates and walking planks and therefore make your stomach queasy with sea-sickness?

Maybe romance is unappealing because it gets boxed in with black velvet, french cuisine and italian opera and that makes guys want to kick romeo in the balls and click on the man show.

I don't know. All I know is that you don't have to spend a lot of money to be romantic. And that having two guys fight over you is soo over-rated that relishing the thought of it... real shallow.

Real romance doesnt need a blue lagoon, or a star-lit sky, or a castle with a dragon and a moat. Real romance consists of a bit of love, a dash of planning, a pinch of magic and two arms full of the best intentions. Without this, that candlelit dinner is lamb (ugh) and ur just out of luck. But with it, a picnic and one on one frisbee football is a fairy tale.

What is romance?

"i define romance as unneccessarily showy, ornate, and publicly demonstrated
acts of kindness toward someone you would eventually like to 'bang'"
----------Anonymous Rutgers Student

"a passionate fondness"
----------Webster

"Looking to make someone you love happy, planning and "
----------Anonymous Rutgers Student #2
