A New Obsession

My latest musical obsession is the relatively new artist, Gotye. You're probably like, who the freak is that?!?!. Well, you actually probably do know him. You know that song " Somebody That I Used To Know"? Well, that's his song. His songs are amazing, and all his music videos are extremely unique, some using an actual video of him singing, some with clay-mation affects, some even traditional animation, a technique rarely used, which I find impressive. Also, I'm on Wattpad! (and Facebook, Deviantart, Gaia, IMVU, and a whole bunch of other websites).
If you want any of my usernames on those websites, just comment and I'll post a list later! (Except for Facebook. U no can has)
I shall return to post more later!

Starting Back Up?

I've been thinking about something. I don't know why I stopped updating you guys or anything like that, but I'm going to start it back up again, just out of boredom and such. So, I cannot promise anything, for school has kept me busy, but since this is my first post in who knows how long, I'll make it special and upload some of my recent art.

This was just a random, 30 minute doodle, so it's nothing special but I like it, so I'll share it with you guys.
But, anyways, I gotta go get some sleep and such, so I bid thee farewell.

New Blogs

So, sorry I haven't really posted much lately... kinda been working on a new blog type thingy and I've been busy with school projects because our science teacher is a turd and gives us way too much work. We only get like, 20,000 worksheets every time we go to her class. -_-'. But, yeah about the new blog. It's not really a blog, so much as a roleplaying thing me and my friend Jaycie are working on. Well, it was my idea, and then she read the first few posts and was like, "OMG this is awesome, I want a character!" And then, Izzy, the chimera was born. If you want to read the blogs then here are the links.

So Not Easy

Izzy's story

It's turning out to be... interesting to say the least. Don't really have much more to say.

SOTD: All About Us - Owl City

Sakura Trees

A little girl once lived a happy life.

 She was an only child, but was kind to all others.

  Then her dad got sick.

He lay in a hospital bed, talking to his daughter.

 "Here, take this, little one." he said, and handed her a cherry pit.

   "What will this do?" She asked, teary eyed.

      His heart rate was getting slower.

"It is to represent your dreams.

  Plant it and , if you take good care of it,

    It will one day grow to be a beautiful sakura tree."

With one last tear streaking his face, but with a smile.

  He silently slipped away.

A few weeks later, she planted the tree.
 "If this was your final wish,
   Then I will take care of it until I die."

6 years later,
  She went into her sophomore year of high school.
    She was very beautiful, and was invited to many parties.
      "I have plans already. Sorry."

Everyday she cared for her tree,
  Which now towered over her.
     But her dreams, they were still a small seed.

20 years later,
  She was happily married,
     And now had a daughter of her own.

But after all those years,
  She still cared for her precious tree

Watching her child grow made her realize,
  After all those years she finally had her dream.
      Who would eventually grow into a beautiful sakura tree.
   
     

Growing Up

I recently got a complaint from a family member of mine who thought that my views of previous occurrences were based off of lies, but who has yet to tell me why or how this could be true. They also thought that some of the songs I used for my SotD's were inappropriate for me to be listening to.

 

I may be young, but I have a right to speak my own opinion. That's why I thought this blog was a good idea. So that except to the people who know who I am, I can let out my thoughts anonymously. So that I can finally empty the large number of thoughts that race through my mind so I don't stay awake all night thinking about it. Simply, just to get things off my chest. I appreciate the views, but I never said you absolutely had to read my blog, so if you don't like what I have to say, then stop reading my blog!

I need a release. Everyone does. Music is my release, I'd be lost without it. Even if the music I listen to isn't exactly up to your standards, it is obviously up to mine. Weren't you the one who first taught me the phrase,

 " The ones who mind don't matter and the ones who matter don't mind."? Just ask yourself, do you want to matter to me? You don't have to. I mean, I love you, but if you can't accept who I am, I will, though reluctantly, leave you be. I don't want to keep you shut out over something so stupid, but I can't give up my music.

If my views from my parents divorce seem untrue to you, then feel free to explain why they aren't. If you aren't up for that because I'm too young to understand, then please don't say anything about it, because that just makes me think you are just trying to cover up your own lies. 

I'm growing up, and you have to understand that. You've had 2 children, so you should know how to cope with that already. You also told me that the only person in this world I can control is me. Doesn't the same go for you?

March 15th, 2011

Today, exactly a year ago, I lost someone in my family. I never got to know her that well, mainly because she lived in Georgia. Even so, I cried just as much when my mom called me. My little sister and I were staying with my dad for spring break and she had gone into a hospice the day before. My mom, uncle and both of my grandparents were driving as fast as the law would allow up I-75. They had gotten a call that she had become unresponsive. Half way there, my mom got a call saying to pull over. She was gone. I may have never known her that well, but I do remember her. One spring break, we went to visit other family members in Georgia and we got to go into her apartment. We stayed for dinner and me and my sister helped make spaghetti. It was fun, and I remember looking at her little paper Dixie cups and saying, "Mommy! That's what Grandma's puppy is named!" She may be gone but she helped shape the person I am today. Literally. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't exist. Nor would my mom or grandma.
 R.I.P. My Great Grandmother, or as we called her, Granny Esther.

SotD: Hold On - Wilson Phillips

This was the song that was playing on the radio when my mom got the news. I thought it would be appropriate as the SotD for today's post.
