Part 2

The Week Before Christmas

Ok, so I was opening one morning, and some verses just came to me throughout the day. So here it is: the finished poem.

It was Christmas week and all through the store,
all the animals were stirring, the mice and more.
The groomers woke up with a tear of sorrow
knowing that 40 dogs would be coming tomorrow

Dogs, dogs, and dogs galore!
A Great Pyranese added to the chore,
as the boarders settled in all nice and merry,
the workers themselves were tired but wary,
all the water, food, and shelter set,
with demands from Angella to be met

There was still shopping to do and family to please,
enough to make you fall on your knees.
However Christmas finally came about,
"Happy Birthday Jesus!" was said throughout
and all the workers texted without a call,
Merry Christmas and Good Tidings to all!

Let it snow!

So, as I approach the end of the semester, I am at the point where there are basically 3 days left. Finals sched: Wed- Physical Sci , Thurs - Public Speaking, Fri - Mass Media. That's how it is for school. I am also packing for my trip back home, and basically have 1/4 of it done. Then, it started snowing! :) all productivity, down. lol. so...i think i'll study a lil tonight for my exam tomorrow, pack a bit, face the elements, and hopefully squish my stuff into my car.
Let's see, what else.. can't wait to actually have some income again. My balance right now is basically 90 some-odd dollars, so basically just enough to make it down to Houston. One thing I'm looking forward to is seeing the Frisco square Christmas lights! I'm totally taking video. :D so, that's probably gonna be our only stop, but yeah.... I wonder how i'm going to get my closet packed up into my car... and my desk... i have a lot of books. I need a box.
Anyway, for now I'm enjoying the one-final-a-day thing, and am loving the snow. I even made my first (second, and third) snow angel! mmm....Snapple's pretty good right now.

Breaking up is hard to do...

Not that I was in a dating relationship or anything, but as you (who's you? who even reads this? comment if u do b/c I don't think I'm talking to anybody...) might know, I will soon be transferring from Sterling College.
Now, this was an uber-hard decision, but after lots of thought, prayer, and opinions, I have finally decided what the course will be for the rest of my undergrad college life. Reasons:
-Much, much, much, cheaper to go to Tomball college for the semester
-Will have a job, so will have steady income.
-Wanted to transfer to a linguistics school, but it was too late by the time I thought abt it, so it's easier to pay for that school if i just get gen eds out of the way at a cheaper college and have a better schedule that will help regiment me to find motivation for my grades.
-Just have a feeling that i've learned what i needed to at Sterling, and feel God is telling me to move on to the next step
-my gut is telling me

So, It was a really hard decision, but my head finally feels clear, and it hasn't felt that way in a long, long, time. I feel this is what I need to do and have accepted my own decision.
I will dearly miss the people at Sterling, but this is something that I have to do.

Reflection upon lyrics

I think the first time I heard this song was when I was 4. I distinctly have a memory of being in my dad's truck, him putting in the tape, and this being my favorite song on there. The song is "All I Really Want" by Alanis Moorisette. Throughout the years, I have yet to grow out of this song. It continues to be one of those songs I can play repeatedly for several years. So, here are the lyrics for those of you who haven't heard of it. [It's also on the playlist if you scroll down a bit (just keep clicking next)]

Do I stress you out?
My sweater is on backwards and inside out
And you say how appropriate
I don't want to dissect everything today
I don't mean to pick you apart you see
But I can't help it
There I go jumping before the gunshot has gone off
Slap me with a splintered ruler
And it would knock me to the floor if I wasn't there already
If only I could hunt the hunter

And all I really want is some patience
A way to calm the angry voice
And all I really want is deliverance
Do I wear you out?
You must wonder why I'm so relentless and all strung out
I'm consumed by the chill of solitary
I'm like Estella
I like to reel it in and then spit it out
I'm frustrated by your apathy
And I am frightened by the corrupted ways of this land
If only I could meet the Maker

And I am fascinated by the spiritual man
I am humbled by his humble nature
What I wouldn't give to find a soulmate
Someone else to catch this drift
And what I wouldn't give to meet a kindred
Enough about me, let's talk about you for a minute
Enough about you, let's talk about life for a while
The conflicts, the craziness and the sound of pretenses
Falling all around...all around
Why are you so petrified of silence?
Here can you handle this?


Did you think about your bills, your ex, your deadlines
Or when you think you're gonna die
Or did you long for the next distraction?
And all I need now is intellectual intercourse
A soul to dig the hole much deeper
And I have no concept of time other than it is flying
If only I could kill the killer

All I really want is some peace man
a place to find a common ground
And all I really want is a wavelength
All I really want is some comfort
A way to get my hands untied
And all I really want is some justice...

I don't know why this particular song has stuck out to me through all these years, but it has prevailed. Maybe because it's odd, or I really don't know...
If you're interested, other songs that can never get old to me are:
In the Beginning (as used in Anastasia)
Everything You Want - Vertical Horizon

Inspiration amongst the repetitive melancholy...

Well, b/c I made that anime list, I have decided to join myanimelist.net . If you want to look me up my alias is cybunny_lizzie . So....
If you are familiar w/any of my blogs from myspace (long, long, ago) you are familiar that besides the mundane trend of life that presents itself, I also scripted my poetry, prose, etc. I may feel the urge to do this randomly from this point on, so this is your warning. Anyway, also if you are familiar w/that particular piece of bandwidth, you will know that abt april or may of 2 yrs ago I was feeling very very very bored w/life, no matter how much exciting stuff was going on. Now that I have been absent from my job, besides my studies, there is nothing for me to focus my helpless mind on. Heck, even the school stuff is wierd. I feel like I'm in 4th grade again. Nobody that reads this blog (if anybody reads it) will know what that relates to, but none the less, I will blog because I feel like it and I feel I have a right to abuse free bandwidth. :)
So.... some random things....
new air freshner scent - hawaiian floral papaya stuff
halloween weekend - one of the most fun weekends in a long long long time
pink hair - plan to sport it some time
crosswords - bought a book and have been procrastinating with that b/c I am tired of fb and it's too cold to ride my bike and I don't really feel like watching another amv or anime right now...
D.I. - yeah, I need to work on that....
bye
