  • More Snow Pouring Down

    It's like walking on snow, without leaving a trace
    You know what you said never carried away
    I came out untouched and in another place
    When you going to get it
    I'm so unaffected.
    "Walking on Snow" ~ Jordin Sparks


    T



    Dreamed I was an eskimo
    Frozen wind began to blow
    Under my boots and around my toes
    The frost that bit the ground


    below


    It was a hundred degrees below zero
    "Don 't Eat the Yellow Snow" ~ Frank Zappa


    T




    All I said, I didn't mean
    The chill is strong and nothing seems
    To thaw the icy sentiment
    Of love that's gone once winter's spent
    "Fallen Snow" ~ Au Revoir Simone

    And winters come and my love, the winters go
    And time stacks up in
    p
    i
    l
    e
    s
    like winter snow
    And everything you love and hold so dear
    Won't really matter when we [d i s a p p e a r]

  • okay so now it's back to the daily grind and also time for another lyrics/pictures section. : )
    Pictures all taken by me so please don't steal.
    I think today I'll use lyrics from my obsession right now: 1997.
    ____________________________________________________________________

    { 1 }
    Without a single place to be
    I'm dyin' fast and feeling free
    I got my plans to live forever in a dream

    I need to know that I exist
    Left to satisfy an itch (I've had for years)
    I long to write a song the world cannot dismiss
    ~"One Track Mind, Four Track Heart" by 1997 



    { 2 }
    I know I feel I should explain
    A little better for your mind,
    to take the time and listen

    It's just that I have heard it all before.
    I'm not in this to clarify certain situations,
    Surrounding thoughts of me and you,
    I know you're scared but I am too.
    ~ "4 AM Conversations" by 1997



    { 3}
    I found another naked moment
    a new forever kind of  l o v e
    I traced the sunrise, rode upon it
    and wrote another song about it
    ~ "I Will Always Find You" by 1997



    { 4 }
    troubled boy,
    I'll kiss you one last time
    and then say goodnight
    forever

    but little girl,
    I'm not feeling well
    these nights are long and rough,
    without you
    ~ "Water's Edge" by 1997


    { 5 }
    String me along like a beautiful love song
    ~ "Water's Edge" by 1997



    { 6 }
    I ran through the garden of evil.
    Hasent steps I p u l l away, why am I running if you keep slowing?
    So I hesitate:
    ''Oh, Is this really what you want from me?''
    ''Is this really what you want from me?''
    ~"Garden of Evil" by 1997



    { 7 }
    Casting shadows on the pavement, dancing toe to toe
    ~ " Hey Darlin' " by 1997



    { 8 }
    little girl, listen well
    but you must promise that you'll never, ever tell
    i speak like fire
    it burns your ears
    but who will whipe away your tears?

    from secrets to lying to honesty
     through all this mess i held you close.
    ~" Hey Darlin' " by 1997

  • Okay a real quote post this time : )

    ◙◘◙ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫

    So I'm supposed to be doing some studying for my forensic science and law test, but this will be much more fun.
    I think I'm going to do the iTunes on random thing again because that was fun.
    Photos were photographed by me so if you take one please comment.

    [01]
    Locked inside
    The only place
    Where you feel sheltered,
    Where you feel safe.
    You lost yourself
    In your search to find
    Something else to hide behind.
    ~ Simon - Lifehouse

     

    [02]
    If you want to fly, well it's not that absurd.
    If you want to cry we won't breathe a word.
    If you want to lie down, well forget what you heard,
    Cause we've all got some tables to turn.
    ~ Like Satellites - Over It


    [03]
    Man    , I've been wasting so much time
    Walking the same street every night
    Don't you think maybe it's about time?

    You can light the fire that's in your head
    Put it off, tomorrow will come instead
    We don't watch the tower that tells us when
    Pull the wicked flower out from its bed
    ~ Walking - The Dodos

      

    [04]
    I want to [remember]
    how it used to be
    when I knew the sharks
    that were in my sea
    ~ Drive - Gavin Rossdale

      

    [05]
    Give me a second and I'll turn it into a year you won't forget
    We'll make them read our stories
    And we'll make them eat their words
    We'll make their lives seem boring for what it's worth

    Oh, all the m.e.m.o.r.i.e.s we had
    [Framed] in our minds like photographs
    Take a second, take a second 
    And make this last
    ~ All the Memories - The Classic Crime

      

    [06]
    I would rather keep my d i s t a n c e, 
    thank you very much.
       What do you want? 
    Do you want my apologies?
     Do you want me to tell you I'm wrong?
     Because I won't
     I won't feed your melodrama 
    and I won't be a part of your     game
     But thank you very much
    ~ Lie - Matt Nathanson


      

    [07]
    A part of you that'll never show
    You're the only one that'll ever know
    Take it back when it all began
    Take your time, would you understand
    What it's all about?
    ~ Little House - The Fray

  • Questions

    Currently listening to: My fingers clicking on the keyboard


    Okay so I've got to find some more internships for forensic science majors and I was wondering if anybody had any information on one. It would be greatly appreciated. I just want to have some back up options if my phone interview does not go so well just in case.
    ______________________________________________________________

    So I found a fun quiz and I figured I would like to share it.

    Type your name/username into Google images. What is the first picture that comes up?

    Name


    Username


    Type in "[your name] needs" into Google
    Erica needs to be in a much better place.

    Type in "[your name] looks" into Google
    Erica looks like a lion.

    Type in "[your name] says" into Google
    Erica says goodbye.

    Type in "[your name] wants" into Google
    Erica wants happy time.

    Type in "[your name] does" into Google
    Erica does makeup.

    Type in "[your name] hates" into Google
    Erica hates oil

    Type in "[your name] asks" into Google
    Erica asks for help.

    Type in "[your name] loves" into Google
    Erica loves music

    Type in "[your name] eats" into Google
    Erica eats 2.5 pickles in 45 seconds

    Type in "[your name] wears" into Google
    Erica wears the pants

    Type in "[your name] was arrested for" into Google

    Now I have a challenge for you. My stats teacher was talking about a game he likes to play with guests at parties and it is called Double Feature Marquee. This game is played by putting together two or more movie titles together that if they showed up on a marque it would make sense.
    Example: Threesome You, Me, and Dupree

    So now I want you to come up with one these are pretty fun.

    The Wanderer

    She  took a look at the trees so high
    They had their leaves, so thin
    She took a look up at the sky
    The sun glistened on her skin
    She took a step on the edge’s lip
    At that moment she looked down
    She wanted so dearly to smile at the scene
    But instead gave a horrible frown

    The winds were whipping at her clothes
    Blowing as the wind does blow
    The blue green waves crashed down below
    The sight was so breath taking
    But the only thought passing through her head
    Were all those ugly thoughts she dread
    If only she could send them away
    Over the cliff and down into the bay

    But there she was raised up so high
    Standing there staring as the world went by
    Thinking of things that shouldn’t be remembered
    Of past love and how life passed her by
    As she sat down she started to weep
    Oh how much she needed to cry
    The tears just kept rolling down across her cheeks
    She breathed out one lonely sigh

    She doesn’t know what to do with herself
    Can’t think of what to say to someone else
    Wants to know, really know in her heart, in her soul
    If she’ll ever be okay, if it’ll ever be the same
    She wants to know, wants to feel
    If anything can ever be so real
    She wants it to be crystal clear
    So that she could live again

    Randomness for Fridayy

    So I think today since it's friday I am going to put my iTunes on shuffle
     and take lyrics from each song that plays no matter how embarrassing.

    Little rant: Physics class was a waste of my life this morning we have a test in a week and
    instead of learning or going over hw problems we go on a stupid scavenger hunt
     about nothing we have ever learned in that class. Ugh...
    _____________________________________________________________________

    After this sweet day I'll be with you.
    Will it fill you up inside,
    My loving kindness,your open mind.
    You should have said hello .
    And when you see me there waiting,
    you'll wonder where you have been.
    I'll sit just right here sweetheart,
    and I'll be here to the end.
    ~ "Teenage Love Rock" The Rocket Summer



    Come now in the rain, I sing defenses down
    and every person in this room will hear me out.
    ~ "Blackjaw Suitcase" Permanent Me



    In slow motion, the blast is beautiful
    Doors slam shut; doors slam shut
    A clock is ticking, but it's hidden far away
    Safe and sound; safe and sound
    ~ "Somewhere a Clock is Ticking" Snow Patrol



    Dashing and daring,
    Courageous and caring,
    Faithful and friendly,
    With stories to share.
    All through the forest,
    They sing out in chorus,
    Marching along,
    As their song fills the air.
     
    Gummi Bears!!
    Bouncing here and there and everywhere.
    High adventure that's beyond compare.
    They are the Gummi Bears.
    ~ Gummi Bear Theme Song

     

    All this time I've been trying to find a way
    To close this chapter but nothing ever stays away
    It all keeps building, the things that I would say to you
    ~ "Give Up" Sherwood



    Change has been
    Change will be
    Time will tell
    Then time will ease

    Now my curtain has been drawn
    And my heart can go
    Where my heart does belong
    I'm going home
    ~ "Reunion" Collective Soul



    If there was something wrong would you be oh so strong?
    Would you do what it takes to move this hollow life along?
    I'd like to think I would, you know I'd like to think I would
    But I guarantee that what you see is not reality
    And every time she makes a point I make a counterpoint
    She said, "It's easy but in the end you'll have no choice,
    And you know that's only just the way it goes."
    ~ "Point/Counterpoint" Streetlight Manifesto

  • We Won't Stop 'Til Somebody Calls the Cops

    So it's been raining and dreary all day.
    So I think all of the lyrics today are going to have sunshine in the title.
    I can't wait til it starts to get warmer.

    Current Artist Obsession: Kimya Dawson <3
     ________________________________________________________

    You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
    You make me happy when skies are gray
    You'll never know dear, how much I love you
    Please don't take my sunshine away
    ~ You Are my Sunshine - Johnny Cash



    Mr. Sunshine in the morning
    In the morning light
    Won't you come down from the ceiling
    Won't you stay the night
    Baby won't you stay the night
    ~ Sunshine - Regina Spektor



    Now my eyes are open wide
    As I travel around
    Maybe some summer day I'll find
    Her face in the crowd singing...

    Sunshine and chocolate everyday
    ~ Sunshine and Chocolate - Semisonic



    On the lawn before the bouquet fell
    Long before we hear the ringing bell
    When all I want is a good look at your underside
    Reading Tress like it was judy blume
    Your paperbacks are strewn about the room
    Awaiting their instructions to be mobilized
    And everybody knows how it shakes and how it glows
    Everybody knows and so it goes
    That everybody wants their shoes in the sunshine, now
    ~ Sunshine - The Decemberists



     Twist and turn with your bright eye shining
    Twist and turn in the california sun
    Wait forever for the life you dream of
    You wait for something that will never come
    You twist and turn in the slow motion daydream
    You twist and turn in your own sweet hell
    I don't get too close to the fire anymore
    But when I think of you now, it makes me think of summertime
     ~ Sunshine (The Acid Summer) - Everclear
     
    I hold you in cupped hands
    And shield you from a storm
    Where only some dumb idiot
    Would let you go

    But if I'm one thing
    Then that's the one thing
    I should know
    Can anybody find their home
    Out of everyone
    Can anybody find their home
    ~ Sunshine - Keane



     I never saw it happening
    I'd given up and given in
    I just couldn't take the hurt again
    What a feeling

    I didn't have the strength to fight
    Suddenly you seemed so right
    Me and you
    What a feeling
    ~ Brighter than Sunshine - Aqualung


    And sing that old song how does it go?
     Look out Sunshine here's the punch line
     No one gets you any more
    ~ Look Out Sunshine! - The Fratellis

     




    I see your heart beat through the bedsheets
     I feel your pulse against the floor
     I sleep the sadness that no one else sleeps
     Feel me cunningly adore.
     ~ Blue Sunshine - Blue October
