What is one food that you refuse to try? Why?

The one food I'd never try... shit I've already tried some pretty nasty shit lol. Octopus, squid, eel... what's worse that that. I probably never try cooked broccoli, as strange as that sounds. I cant stand the way that crap smells when it's cooking....

Decisions, Decisions

Now, I'm getting a new car in about a month. But I cant decide which one I like the best. A few weeks ago, I test drove the 2007 Honda Civic LX and the Scion tC. I still wannt check out the 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer and the Eclipse. Hmmm... which one should I pick???

The Scion tC??

Or the Honda Civic??

Pictures of the new apartment

2007-08-09T18:44:33Z

Haven't posted here in a minutes... so, I figured I'd posted a few pictures of my new apartment. They're from the website, so the quality is rather shitty. I'll post pictures of my room once it's completely decorated. :)

Dying of Boredom

2006-11-05T19:29:04Z

I never knew that statistics could be sooooo fucking boring. It's one of the most horrible subjects ever created. The only thing getting me through watching all of these damn lectures is The L Word. LOL. Thank God for season 1-3 dvds. Why I'm taking stats... I do not know.

I went and saw a friend's apartment over in University Heights yesterday, post PRIDE festival (which was... quite interesting, I must say). Her apartment was so cute. I loved it. I cant wait for my mom to come do and get me for Thanksgiving Break. We're gonna go apartment hunting and hang out before we go back to Atlanta. I'm supposed to do the whole drivier's license thingy and then I'll get my car around mid-December. I'm really excited around that... That's an extra $800-$3200 in my pocket every month. But we'll see how shit works out...

Glory Box/ Give Me A Reason

2006-07-11T03:29:48Z

"Glory Box"

I'm so tired, of playing
Playing with this bow and arrow
Gonna give my heart away
Leave it to the other girls to play
For I've been a temptress too long

Just. .

Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be... a woman
I just wanna be a woman

From this time, unchained
We're all looking at a different picture
Thru this new frame of mind
A thousand flowers could bloom
Move over, and give us some room

Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be... a woman
I just wanna be a woman

So don't you stop, being a man
Just take a little look from our side when you can
Sow a little tenderness
No matter if you cry

Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be... a woman
Its all I wanna be is all woman

For this is the beginning of forever and ever

Its time to move over... ...

Eventually

2006-07-11T03:00:14Z

Eventually

I am an opportunity and I knock so softly
Sometimes I get loud when I wish everybody'd just
get off me
So many playas you'd think I was a ball game
Its every man for themself, there are no
team mates
This life gets lonely when everybody wants
something
This might have been your fate
But they'll get their's eventually
And I hope I'm there

Surrounded by familiar faces without names
None of them know me or want to share my pain
And they only wish to bask in my light, then fade
away
To win my love, to them a game
To watch me live my life in pain
When all is done and the glitter fades, fades
away
They'll get their's eventually
And I hope I'm there

I drank your poison cuz you told me its wine
Shame on you if you fool once
Shame on me if you fool me twice
I didn't know the price
You'll get yours eventually

So what good am I to you if I can't be broken?
You'll get yours, yes you'll get yours
Eventually

Hell Wit Ya

2006-07-11T02:58:09Z

"Hell Wit Ya"

What is this
I heard you got a new miss
We just broke up so you know that I'm pissed
They say you're faithful I don't believe that shhhh...
Oh no, oh no

[Bridge:]
Oh I tried to act like I didn't care
But it doesn't seem fair you're so good to her
And I tried to pretend I didn't see all those things that you do, you couldn't do for me

[Chorus:]
I was in love wit ya
But the hell wit ya cuz you didn't wanna treat me right
I was in love wit ya
But the hell wit ya cuz you didn't wanna treat me right
Now ya got another girl in your life, givin her love all day and night
I was in love wit ya
But the hell wit ya cuz you didn't wanna treat me right

So I hear, I've met the wench before
(yeah I remember that time we went to Pizza Hut and you told me she was your cousin)
I hear you learned to open doors
(so when did you become such a damn gentleman)

[Repeat Bridge]

[Repeat Chorus]

What does she do to you
To make you give her everything like you never did for me
Call it jealousy, but it's killin me
Cuz all the time that you were mine, you didn't treat me right
No no, no you didn't treat me right, no no no

[Repeat Chorus]

Horoscopes for today and tomorrow

2006-07-10T23:25:53Z

Today:
You pursue this current goal full-throttle, determined to reach success. This tenacious attitude gets you what you want, and then some, whether it's a promotion at work or a new and vivacious social life.

Tomorrow:
Responding to all of life's demands can be a tricky act. The key is to do the best you can while you can and not beat yourself up about the impossible. Cut yourself some slack and have some fun.

Today:
Being all over the place and letting romance happen as it may is one way to play, but right now, the stars say getting a little organized about it helps a great deal. Make a game plan -- maybe with a friend.

Tomorrow:
If you've been feeling held back in the love department by forces beyond your control, you can change all that right now. The stars are sending can-do energy, excitement and a fresh perspective your way. Grab hold!

Ain't This A Bitch

2006-07-10T23:11:34Z

Ok... so I'm chillin' in the Reitz today, doing homework and slyly scoping out the hot Wendy's guy when this girl I met comes over to me. We start chit-chatting about boys and she happened to mention that a hot light skinned guy with dreds and gorgeous eyes broke her heart... I was like 'that's funny because I had some issues with an ex of mine who fits that description to a T.'

Well..... it turns out that she was talking about the EXACT SAME GUY that I was talking about, a Mr. Adam Swan Troy. According to her, while he was dating me, he cheating on me/flirted with a bunch of other girls on campus, even another girl named Danielle. I mean, come on. At least find a girl with a different name. (No offense to her, because I was told that she thought we were no longer together).

Honestly, I'm not as mad at him as I thought I would have been if something like this ever happened to me. I actually feel bad for him and then girl that he's currently dating. I think that he is a liar and a coward, but he's not even worth me getting upset over. People like him obviously has issues with themselves, so they seek out people and manipulate them just for the hell of it. They like to fuck with your emotions because they can, and they actually get off on that shit. It's kinda pathetic actually. And then to say ' oh... it's not like we were actually ever in a relationship in the first place.' Um... ok. Sure. You keep on believing that sweetheart. And to all of those girls out there that he fucked around with, forget about him. Trust me. Because if you let him, he'll break your fuckin' heart and life is hard enough already without adding even more bullshit into the mix. Dont sweat it. Move on. Put it this way... we all learned a life lesson.

So thank you Adam, for finally showing me what a real bastard you are and how much of a coward you are. I dont pray very often, but you are definitely in mine... Grow up and stop with the childish mind games. Remember, there's nothing like a woman scorned....

*besos*
La Dama

Ohhh... just in case you're wondering what he looks like:

I'm Not Dead...

2006-06-27T06:31:11Z

"I'm Not Dead"

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
There's all these cracks
Crack of sunlight
Crack in the mirror on your lips
It's the moment of a sunset Friday
When our conversations twist
It's the fifth day of ice on a new tattoo
But the ice should be on our heads
We only spun the wheel to catch ourselves
So we weren't left for death

And I was never looking for approval from anyone but you
And though this journey is over I'll go back if you ask me to

I'm not dead just floating
Right between the ink of your tattoo
In the belly of the beast we turned into
I'm not scared just changing
Right beyond the cigarette and the devilish smile
You're my crack of sunlight

You can do the math a thousand ways but you can't erase the facts
That others come and others go but you always come back
I'm a winter flower underground always thirsty for summer rain
And just like the change of seasons
I know you'll be back again

I'm not dead just floating
Underneath the ink of my tattoo
I've tried to hide my scars from you
I'm not scared just changing
Right beyond the cigarette and the devilish smile
You're my crack of sunlight oh

I'm not dead just yet
I'm not dead I'm just floating
Doesn't matter where I'm going
I'll find you
I'm not scared at all
Underneath the cuts and bruises
Finally gained what no one loses
I'll find you
I will find you

I'm not dead just floating
I'm not scared just changing
You're my crack of sunlight yeah

Love Song...

2006-06-27T06:29:59Z

I've never written a love song
That didn't end in tears
Maybe you'll rewrite my love song
If you can replace my fears
I need your patience and guidance
And all your lovin' and more
When thunder rolls through my life
Will you be able to weather the storm?
There's so much I would give ya, baby
If I'd only let myself
There's this well of emotions
I feel I must protect
But what's the point of this armor
If it keeps the love away, too?
I'd rather bleed with cuts of love
Than live without any scars
Baby, can I trust this?
Or do all things end?
I need to hear that you'd die for me
Again and again and again
So tell me when you look in my eyes
Can you share all the pain and happy times
'Cause I will love you for the rest of my life
This is my very first love song
That didn't end in tears
I think you re-wrote my love song
For the rest of my years
I wil love you for the rest of my Life

Poster Girl

2006-06-27T06:26:53Z

"Poster Girl"

Yeah yeah yeah

Julie was a long way from home
She could make alone look pretty
Her attitude made a part of the landscape
Riding her bike through Alphabet City
She likes to party in the backseat
Under the bridge on the Brooklyn side
Smoking cigarettes in the afterglow
Taking bets that the sun won't rise

She said, "what good is tomorrow without a guarantee?"
She can lick her lips and smile
And make you wannabelieve

That the consequences of your actions really are just a game
That your life is just a chain reaction taking you day by day
She says nothing's forever in this crazy world
Still I'm falling in love with the right now poster girl

Right now right now
Oooh
Oh ohh

Julie liked to shoplift in stores
Ride alongside the rich and famous
Get in elevators, press emergency stop
And make love on the floor 'til the camera made us
And no woman in the world ever made me feel like my heart's on fire
Where she'd walk I followed (followed)
When she left I cried

What good is tomorrow without a guarantee?
I was wrapped around her finger
And I began to believe

That the consequences of your actions really are just a game
That your life is just a chain reaction taking you day by day
She says nothing's forever in this crazy world
Still I'm falling in love with the right now poster girl

That the consequences of your actions really are just a game
That your life is just a chain reaction taking you day by day
She says nothing's forever in this crazy world (crazy world)
Still I'm falling in love with the right now poster girl

La la la la
La la la la
La la la la la (la la la la la)
La la la la
La la la la (la la la la)
La la la la la

Oh
Tell me what you want from me
I've got everything you need
It's getting hard for me to breathe
Let me be your guarantee

That the consequences of your actions really are just a game
That your life is just a chain reaction taking you day by day
She says nothing's forever in this crazy world
Still I'm falling in love with the right now poster girl

That the consequences (poster girl) of your actions really are just a game
That your life is just a chain reaction taking you day by day
She says nothing's forever in this crazy world (crazy world)
Still I'm falling in love with the right now poster girl

Right now right now
Right now ohhh ohh
Poster girl
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Poster girl yeah
Come on come on yeah

Song For the Unloved...

2006-06-27T06:24:32Z

"Song For The Unloved"

Hey..

This one is for the mothers…
Who've lost a child
This one is for the gypsies
Who left their hearts behind
This is for the strangers
Sleeping in my heart
Take what they want
And leave while it's still dark

[Bridge]
No one is glamourously
Lonely, all by themselves

[Chorus]
This is a song for the unloved
This is a music for one last cry
This is a prayer that tomorrow will help me leave the past behind
It's a song for the unloved (the unloved)

This one's for the bridesmaid
Never the bride
This one's for the dreamers
Who locked their faith inside
This is for the widows
Who think there's only one
The dying fathers that never told their sons

No one is glamourously, lonely
Follow your heart…

[Chorus repeat]

Ohh
Tomorrow the sun will shine
And dry the tears in your eyes
Suddenly love comes alive…

For one last cry
Just one last cry…
