Coin Laundry – Lisa Mitchell & Dream – Priscilla Ahn

Two favorite songs I thought I’d share . . . enjoy :]

 

Alice Took The Right Turn

Happy happy, sing sing.
It’s never as simple
as the simplicity of yesterday.
You see through your eyes
Those pretty, betraying lies.
But your heart and mind?
They see the murderous truths

Sing for me; sing a melody
Smile for me; if only to brighten my day
Hold me close and laugh with me
Only to break down the glacier of Not Now.

Depths and measures of words on your tongue;
You’re blind with what is made rather than how.

This is pointless, I’ll tell you right now.
I’ll tell you straight that you’re just a lie.
Your friends are a lie, your life is a lie.

Open your heart . . . open your mind.
Fall down the rabbit hole to see the truth.

Not everything is what is seems to be . . .

Tea Parties with Wine.

A simple little world
Lost in your eyes
A tea party with wine
Trapped in my imagination.

My story is simple and sweet.
I sit and sing my sweet lullaby.
I wait for him to smile.
I wait for him to speak.

I sing and I dance
A mournful tale.
It speaks of a love which,
To show, I fail.

I’m a simple little girl
Lost in my tale of disgrace.
Though, unlike other girls,
I have a fear of fate.

He’s a wistful young fellow.
Blind to what’s before him.
Caught up in the lies
So afraid to reveal his sin.

Maybe someday
He’ll see me again
But until then I wait
Long after the clouds turn grey,
Long before Cinderella finds her Prince,

Until then . . . I wait.

I found something even more interesting I found though. . .

LillyEllen custom designs. You pick which ring/necklace/bracelet/etc. you want from her shop, tell her what you want written on it, and tada! I found this neat, because I just LOVE things that are more personal and custom-made rather than a regular gift. They have more of a meaning – and are less likely to be thrown away when going scavenging your home for no-goods!

This, or a ring, is one I’d want . . . hint hint. ;]

 

She also has her own website at lillyellen.com if you’d like to see more :)

 

Enjoyyy.

Nights are the Worst

I don’t like nights currently (the sleeping, alone part of it.) My stomach feels sick because I’m very worried. I worry too much.

Luckily, during the day, I can distract myself with useless things such as restaurant names that are just wrong, making fun of lawyers, and cleaning my room when it will just be dirty again within a couple of days.

 

Last night, at 8:30, I went to see “Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince” with my good friend, Emma, and her mom. It was pretty amazing, I must say (although I don’t believe it would’ve been half as amazing if Emma and I hadn’t been hiked up on sugary goods :D). It was a much more humorous movie than the rest of the series. David Yates will not be chased down with pitchforks and fire. Good job, Mr. Yates.

I am looking forward to Wednesday. Do you have any idea as to why? Well, my friend, it is because I will be photographing my lovely best friend, Sarah, for her birthday :D it is a birthday gift from me to her. She has the loveliest blue eyes you’ve ever seen, and a gorgeous smile. I am very excited, and so is she :)

I’m also trying to finish “The Forgotten Garden” so then I can tell you all what I think of it. So far, I’m very impressed. It doesn’t have any nasty words or anything, and the story flows wonderfully. It’s different, too (compared to what I’ve read at least). It’s very innocent, with a hint of a dark, foreboding tale. My kind of book :)

 

Anyway, I’m off to attempt cleaning that dastardly treacherous room of mine. Wish me luck, fellows.

Expect More Posts…

For the next three weeks, Kevin will be gone. Two weeks he will be a counselor, and then the last week he will be just a regular camp-ee.

So, in other words, I will be EXTRAORDINARILY bored. There are positives and negatives about these trips though:

Positives:

I can get to a lot of things I’ve been wanting to do.
Girl time :]
Hanging out with my girlies.
Him having fun and having a break from all this insanity :]

Negatives:

Not hearing from him much (the last week not at all).
Not knowing how his throat is doing.

I’m sure there are a few more negatives, but those are the two that are the main ones.

I think him being gone for awhile will be good. It may seem like a long time, but in reality we’ll blink and it’ll be over with. I think we both need a break from the insanity of his mother and the whole drama scene created each day (although, I will admit, it’s been pretty low lately), that way we can regain our strength and sanity for when he gets back.

5 days after he returns, he’ll be having surgery for his throat. He could have had it this coming Wednesday, but apparently someone saw that it was smarter to wait . . . don’t get me started on that.
Anyway, so this is what’s going on. I’ll soon be posting a link to my new blog, “Evelyn Blythe Fotography”, that way you can view some of my loverly work while reading some of my nonsensical ramblings :]

Have a great weekend, dolls.

Thinking Too Deeply . . . or Maybe Too Shallow?

"We all need somebody that can mend these broken bones."

Who, in our lives, is this person? Do any of us even have someone like this? Is it God, our mother, a spouse, a stranger even . . . who? Does this person have to come in a certain form; can it come in multiple forms, or must it be a single person? What about an animal, or an item?
How many people like this come in our lives? How many people like this do we lose, mess up, hurt, destroy even?
Honestly, I have only ONE solid person who can mend me when I am broken: God.
In human form, I have a few . . . Sarah, my wonderful mother, Kevin, Cheyenne, Carmen, my family . . . I know they would all do their best to help me during rough patches and hardships; my family, Sarah, and Kevin especially.


What other forms could this person come in? Could it be someone from work that you normally despise? Could it be the vermin in your backyard? Who? What?


Another question . . . WHY do we need people like this? Or something like this? Is it even a need? Maybe it is more of a want, rather than need.


Who in your life is like this for you? Who - or what - in your life mends you when you've been broken, whether it be just a crack or completely torn apart?


I could say much more about this, but my mind needs a rest. Just needed to write down a few words.
