A poem, perhaps?

Listen

We strive to let the world know
We belong,
As if our faults cannot be seen,
They point them out,
And tell us to change.
We try to walk down our path,
The one with open doors,
To achieve.
But they turn the light off,
And tell us we can't.
So we,
Listen


I know it's been a LONG time since I last posted, but I tried?! School and extra-cirriculars have been keeping me busy. Same old, same old.

I might turn this poem into a song. I have a feeling this is the chorus. What do you all think?

Random Snippets.

My songbook is filled with empty pages and pages that consist of either:
1. one verse.
2. a chorus
3. a line.
4. ect, ect.

Yeah, you get the point.

Oh, btw. Time for me to rant. I'm kind of annoyed by this new blogger layout. I'm sure you didn't notice it because you don't have to go on blogger and draft and stuff just to edit, post and manage the blog.
If you do have blogger, I hope you understand my pain... my confusion.

ANYWAY, here it goes!

"It starts to rain,
It washes away everything.
All the pain,
If only the rain washed it."

"I don't know what I'm supposed to say.
I'm trying to watch the rain wash away,
The pain and I'm sorry I had to replay,
But I'm hoping that it wont stay."  <-- ANOTHER SONG WITH A REFERENCE ABOUT RAIN. AHAHAH.

"Mark my words darling,
I should've listened to what they said.
Now I'm feeling confused and,
Paranoid inside my head."  (YAY! NOT A RAIN REFERENCE)

"Every night in the sky, you see a star.
I'll make a wish and say, I'll reach far."  (PRETTY STARS. -laugh out loud-)

"I'll be there 'till the end, no promises to bend." (WHOA. COOL. haha)



Um, yeah. That's about it.

I Did Not Give Up.

Remember a while ago when I said I was writing a novel.

I gave up on that.

But, a few days ago, I came up with an awesome idea for a story and I decided to write again. I started all over.

I. SHALL. NOT. GIVE. UP.

I made progress too. I started about 3 days ago, wrote 5 chapter and about 25-27 pages.

That's way better than what happened last time: 2 chapters and 8 pages. (I think less)

Over and out.

Mani's Challenge.

I. HAVE. A. BRILLIANT. IDEA.

I found a notebook and on the cover it's says "Inspire." So, I just came with an awesome idea that I should write quotes in it. Every day, for at least a year I will write a quote (whether it's my own, song lyrics or a famous quote) and jot it down in my notebook. If, for some change I don't get to write in my notebook that day, write it separately and then add the quote in along with the date. I am challenging myself.

I have to make some sort of commitment. I mean, seriously? Every time I commit myself to something (mostly in writing) I basically never finish. Remember my so called novel? Yeah. I haven't worked on that in a month or something.


Aren't I amazing? ;)

Sad Song. How Wonderful

I wrote another half song. It's quite sad.
I have no story to tell you today, other than that I'm excited that I have a 4-day weekend! Awesome sauce.

Here goes the song.

I'm trying to get out,
Of the mess I made.
I hope I can find out,
I can find out a way.

I'm lost in the dark,
Silence screams loud.
There's no one to save me,
Catch me from falling down.

I know I'm stuck, I've been left alone,
To solve my problems on my own.
I need to figure out how to fix this,
Without broken promises.

But I need someone to tell me,
Am I crazy?
Am I lost in my mind?
I need someone to believe me,
And even see,
That maybe I'm alright.
I've got to find a way,
To get out the mess,
And I hope that,
Maybe it'll get fixed.
So just tell me, tell me, just tell me.

No Hot Water In the House// MOMMY DAY

My friend's little sis was showing me some fairy wings. I think I've gone blind. They're so pink! Like hot pink!
Now, if that isn't bright, then I don't know what is.

I honestly have nothing to say here today, mainly because I'm really tired and bored. I also don't have my songbook with me at the moment.

Want to hear the story of my life? It implies to the title.

Yesterday, luckily I took a shower in the morning, but when my mom took a shower, cold water started coming out.

NO. HOT. WATER.

So we basically spent like 5 minutes trying to find the hot water in every sink and shower we had. Turns out we didn't have any hot water and no one was going to fix it.

Why? It's the weekend. No one fixes appliances on the weekend. That's just sad.

Basically, I was stuck at my friend's house and I took a shower there. At least I got hot water. Hopefully some guy will fix it for us soon.

ALSO, It's Mother's Day.

Guess what I did? I didn't do the cheesy make-breakfast-in-bed thing. I gave my mom a card, and we're going to go out to eat. That's how awesome we are.

Actually, I also wrote a whole page of cheesy "heartfelt" random scramble of words. Also known as sentences in the card. I dunno why, I just felt like it. :)

Well, I love my mom and that's all that matters... right?
Even though I do annoy her sometimes. :D

Notebook Paper.

I don't remember posting this song here but I have a pic of the chorus of it.

I found it in my old songbook.
Dunno what inspired me to write it. I forget easily.

I apologize for the short post. :(

Project Time... Once Again

I wrote about half of a song yesterday for my project.
Here it goes.

Think about the memories,
Save them like a keepsakes in your heart.

I know we're on different journeys,
But keep an image in your mind.

It doesn't have to be in a frame,
You don't have to look at it every day.
Just take a glance every once in a while,
I hope it makes you smile.

*chorus*
Everywhere I go, my mind wanders away,
A flashback pops in my head, driving me insane,
And you will come and go, like time ticking each day.
The memories are in my heart, like a picture,
In a picture frame.

That's all I've got!

Over-and-out.

holaholahola.

My Spanish is legit.
Anyway, it's pretty ironic how I end up adding posts for 4 days in a row or something, then I stop posting for 3 days, and start posting again. It seems to be a trend.

So, I'm working on a project. It's called ENEX. (Enrichment Exploration.)
Yes, it sounds cool. Very cool.
We have to choose a topic for either
1. a future career
OR
2. a passion

I chose something somewhat in the middle... more on the passion side.
Can you guess? It's quite obvious.
Music Recording/Production!!!!

It's a powerpoint presentaion and I'm also going to create background music. Along with the music, I'm going to play Tino and sing an original. Yes, I'm hoping to get high marks for the "wow factor."

It's due in 3 weeks. Thank goodness I'm ALMOST done. Kind of. At least I'm not procrastinating. 

I'm crossing my fingers!!!

Home "Sweet" Home.

I've been home all day long. Gee, how wonderful, isn't it? What a great way to spend my spring break. I think this day has been wasted. I mean, seriously, I could have written a song.

But I didn’t.

I could have gone out. But I didn’t. I could have played outside; mainly because for once it’s actually nice outside. But I didn’t. I could have-

Yeah, you get the point.

I just didn’t, okay? I stayed home, sat comfortably on my sofa wearing my sweatpants, watched TV and didn’t do anything productive. Well, actually there was something productive.

I ate.

Eating food is quite an important and productive thing to do. If you don’t agree, then prove me wrong. I mean, eating is one of the ways that you’re healthy and ALIVE. Am I correct? When am I NOT correct? Probably one in a million.

I think I stretched that out a bit too far. Okay, I’ll go with one in a thousand.

Fine, fine. Okay. One in a hundred. Don’t push it.

As of right now, I’m sitting here with a notebook and a pen trying to come up with a new song. Honestly, I think I’ll end up coming up with a song at 3:00 AM, when I’m in the middle of a wacky dream.

When that happens, I don’t want to get out of my cozy bed and to my bookshelf and go through my however many notebooks I have until I find my songbook and try to write in the dark. Once I’m done, I get thirsty and I think to myself “Dude, you just wrote an awesome song. Now you must reward yourself with a cold glass of H2O.” 

Yes, I used a scientific term. 

Back to the story of my life. Do I go get a glass of H2O?

The answer my friend, is no. Why? Due to the fact that when a person, or to be exact, a family is asleep, people generally turn their lights off. Especially when it’s nighttime. No lights equal darkness. I don’t  like to go down the stairs when it’s dark and I prefer not to even walk around the house when I can barely see what I’m doing or where I’m going. I don’t have night vision. I consider you awesome if you do have night vision.

In other words, I’m too lazy to go downstairs, (in the dark!) and get a glass of water, then actually drink the water and go back up. 

Story time is over. 

Bytheway, I’m in the mood for a soft, chewy, chocolaty cookie. Yum. :)
