evel knievel

Evel Knievel died today. He was 69. He died from complications with his lungs along with having diabetes. Not only did he suffer with his lungs but he also suffered from pulmonary fibrosis. In 1999 he underwent a surgery to cure his hepetitis c that he got from a stunt that caused him to have a bone shattered spill. In the past 2 years he also had suffered 2 strokes. He began his daredevil career in 1965. He steadily increased the length of the jumps until, on New Year's Day 1968, he was nearly killed when he jumped 151 feet across the fountains in front of Caesar's Palace.Robbie Knievel followed in his father's footsteps as a daredevil, jumping a moving locomotive in a 200-foot. He also jumped a 200-foot-wide chasm of the Grand Canyon. He will be missed for his crazyy stunts and good humor!!

"Guardian Angel"

this song has a very special meaning to me so i thought i would put the lyrics on so that people who havent heard the song could grasp the meaning i obtained from the song...

Red Jumpsuit Apparatus---Guardian Angel

When I see your smile
Tears run down my face I can't replace
And now that I'm stronger I've figured out
How this world turns cold and breaks through my soul
And I know I'll find deep inside me I can be the one

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

It's ok. It's ok. It's ok.
Seasons are changing
And waves are crashing
And stars are falling all for us
Days grow longer and nights grow shorter
I can show you I'll be the one

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

Cuz you're my, you're my, my true love, my whole heart
Please don't throw that away
Cuz I'm here for you
Please don't walk away,
Please tell me you'll stay, stay

Use me as you will
Pull my strings just for a thrill
And I know I'll be ok
Though my skies are turning gray

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

Black Friday

Black Friday is the busiest day in retail. Waking up at 4 o'clock in the morning, rushing to stores to get the best sales and reach the line as soon as possible. I didnt get the privilage of going out shopping this year because i myself had to be at work. Although i didnt go out on the biggest day of christmas shopping, i have already started buying my gifts. Out of the 10 people i have to buy for, i already bout 4 people gifts. How amazing is that, andddd its not even december yet!!!!! im trying to not leave everything for the last minute cuz we all know where that gets everybody.

Christmas is Coming!!!!

Christmas is only a month away. How insane is that. Just a few months ago we were out trick or treating. My favorite part about christmas is the decorating. The music is def not one of my favorite things about the holiday but it could be entertaining at times. This weekend at work, me and my co-worker went out decoration shopping for our job. Let me just say is was a very journeyful and interesting night. When decorating we had such a good time just goofing off and listening to christmas music. We are not quite done yet with the decorating, but its looking pretty goooooooddddd!!!!!!!

Thanksgiving Day

On Thanksgiving like most people i spent most of the day with my family. I went over my Godmothers house for dinner. My family usually splits holidays so everything is fair. For example, we celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas at my Godmothers house, New Years and Mothers Day at my house, and we celebrate Fourth of July and smaller occasions at my aunts. My godmother made us all a wonderful dinner, even though i dont really care much for turkey the food was still very good. The second half of the day i went out with my friends to one of their houses and we spent the night watching football and just having a good time.

Hero/Heroine

Everyone always thinks about who might there hero/heroine be. Everyone has a different opinion on what a hero is, but this song explains in full detail what a hero is and means to someone.



Album: Boys Like Girls (2006)


It's too late baby, there's no turning around
I've got my hands in my pocket and my head in a cloud
This is how I do
When I think about you
I never thought that you could break me apart
I keep a sinister smile in a hole in my heart
You want to get inside
Then you need to get in line
But not this time

Cause you caught me off guard
Now I'm running and screaming

I feel like a hero and you are my heroine

I won't try to philosophize
I'll just take a deep breath and I'll look in your eyes
This is how I feel
And its so so real
I got a closet filled up to the brim
With the ghosts of my past and the skeletons
And I don't know why
You'd even try
But I won't lie

You caught me off guard
Now I'm running and screaming

I feel like a hero and you are my heroine
Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?

And I feel a weakness coming on
Never felt so good to be so wrong
Had my heart all locked down
And then you turned me around
I'm feeling like a new born child
Every time I get a chance to see you smile
It's not complicated
I was so jaded

And you caught me off guard
Now I'm running and screaming

I feel like a hero and you are my heroine
Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?

And I feel a weakness coming on
Never felt so good to be so wrong
Had my heart all locked down
And then you turned me around
I'm feeling like a new born child
Every time I get a chance to see you smile
It's not complicated
I was so jaded

Thanksgiving weekend is coming

Thanksgiving is one of the busiest holidays in airports in the year. There will def be some delays in the coming week in airports. Airports are not the only place where there will be alot of people. Train stations and all highways will also be jampacked. These days are the days that you have to be very careful on the road because everyone is crazy and seems to forget how to drive. Thanksgiving is the holiday to appreciate everything that you have and to be thankful for what you have and also love and appreciate the people in your life. Although im not very fond of the whole turkey dinner, i still love being with my family and looking forward to the christmas time.

Snow

So i dont think i remeber snow being so thick in november. When i woke up in the morning i was extremely shocked at seeing how much it was snowing. We are lucky that the ground has been soo hot lately cuz if not that snow would of def stuck to the ground and accumulated. Although im not very fond of snow anymore, because it cant really get me out of school, it still is a nice scene to look out at. I could sit inside and look out the window while it snowing all day. Its not even that its entertaining, it just calms me down and makes me think and concentrate. I'm sure im not the only one who thinks of snow in that way. My favorite place to be while its snowing is in my room under my covers and being nice and snuggly.

O.J DENIED!!!!

O.J. Simpson was denied by the judge today and is now facing a trial. He will be facing a trial on charges of robbery and kidnapping, and other charges dealing with sports memorabielia. Defense attorneys had argued during a preliminary hearing that the case was based on the accounts of con artists and crooks, and they asked for the charges to be dropped. The defendants were ordered to an arraignment on Nov. 28. The case all began Sept. 13 with a confrontation in a casino hotel room where Simpson and a group of men were accused of stealing items from two sports memorabilia dealers. The Kidnapping charge disputed Simpson’s lawyer, Gabriel Grasso, and argued that it was unclear whether prosecutors considered as kidnapping the act of luring two sports memorabilia dealers to a hotel room or whether the charge was based on a confrontation that followed.

Simpson claims to be an innocent man. Myself along with many other know that he is a con-artist and deserves to be in jail not only for his recent charges of robbery and kidnapping but also for the murder of his wife.

Chile Earthquake

In Chile on Wednesday a earthquake hit Chile, killing 2 and injuring over 100 people. The earthquake was said to have hit 7.7 on the rictor scale, with not only chile being affected but also Sao Paulo, Brazil also feeling some aftermath. It was said that 1,800 homes were damaged along different parts of Chile. Many schools, hospitals and other buildings were evacuated, and although they were evacauted many people were still affected by it. Surprisingly many people are questioning why there wasn't more destruction then there was. They say for such a strong earthquake there should have been alot more damage, but luckily there wasn't.

A-ROD IS BACK!!!!

Alex Rodriguez is back in pinstripes!!!! A-Rod seems to have had a change of heart in what clubhouse he would like to himself in. After opting out of his contract with the Yankees he has decided to make a deal with the Yanks one more time. He has spoken with the Steinbrenner family about having a 10 yr, $275 contract. Along with his contract there would be incentives in the deal that would push the total value higher. Although there was some controversy with A-Rods image because of his opting out, i am sure that every single Yankee fan will be very happy to see him back for another 10 years.

No One

There are many songs out there right now that i love, but the one song that seem to never be able to get sick of is Alica Key's recent song " No One". The lyrics mean so much to me and touch me in a way that not many songs are able to do.

I just want you close
Where you can stay forever
You can be sure
That it will only get better
You and me together
Through the days and nights
I don't worry 'cuz
Everything's going to be alright
People keep talking they can say what they like
But all i know is everything's going to be alright

Chorus:
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel for you

When the rain is pouring down
And my heart is hurting
You will always be around
This I know for certain

You and me together
Through the days and nights
I don't worry 'cuz
Everything's going to be alright
People keep talking they can say what they like
But all i know is everything's going to be alright

Chorus:
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel

I know some people search the world
To find something like what we have
I know people will try try to divide something so real
So til the end of time I'm telling you there is no one

Chorus:
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel for you.

RIP Donda West

Mrs. West was only 58 leaving her son that she was extremely close to behind to continue his singing career. The mother and son were extremely close to one another ever since his father left them at the age of 3 and Mrs. West was left to raise Kanye on her own. Mrs. West would always be at his award shows and parties giving her little boy confidence and support. Not only was Donda West a mother but she was also a chief executive of West Brands LLC which was the parent company of her sons enterprise.

Strike

This strike that had been going on for almost one week is really ridiculous in my opinion. I really hope that everything gets cleared up with all the writers because many channels are going to lode viewers and money because of the shows that have to be cancelled because the writers wont write new episodes to their show. One show imparticular is Grey's Anatomy. That show is my favorite and without that show my week is def incomplete. I hope this feud is resolved soon because not only are tv shows being canceled but big screen plays are also being canceled such as beauty and the beast and many more.

Democrats/Republicans

As of today Clinton has a 20 point lead over her rival democrat, Giuliani. Not only is Clinton in the lead by the democrats are feeling good right about now. Democrats are in a double digit comfortable lead against the republicans in the generic public ballot for the White House. Although Clinton is in the lead for the Democratic presidential nomination, Guiliani is in the lead for the GOP presidential field in the poll.

In the Democratic race, Clinton, the senator from New York, leads Illinois Sen. Obama nationally, 47-25 % with former North Carolina Sen. Edwards coming in third at 11%. It claims to be that Clinton has a constant lead over Obama because of her past experiences.
