Steven Curtis Chapman - Cinderella

she spins and she sways to whatever song plays
without a care in the world
and i'm sitting here wearing the weight of the world on my shoulders
it's beem a long day and there's still work to do
she's pulling at me, saying, "dad, i need you
there's a ball at the castle and i've been invited
and i need to practice my dancing
oh please, daddy, please"
so i will dance with Cinderella
while she is here in my arms
'cause i know something the prince never knew
oh i will dance with Cinderella
i don't want to miss even one song
'cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
and she'll be gone
she says he's a nice guy and i'd be impressed
she wants to know if i approve of the dress
she says, "dad the prom is just one week away
and i need to practice my dancing
oh please, daddy, please"
so i will dance with Cinderella
while she is here in my arms
'cause i know something the prince never knew
oh i will dance with Cinderella
I don't want to miss even one song
'cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
and she'll be gone
but she came home today with a ring on her hand
just glowin' and tellin' us all they had planned
she says, "dad, the wedding's still six months away but i need to practice my dancing
oh please, daddy, please"
so i will dance with Cinderella
while she is here in my arms
'cause i know somethign the prince never knew
oh, i will dance with Cinderella
i don't want to miss even one song
'cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
and she'll be gone

okay, last song, i promise. but i feel like i'm not blogging like i should, so i need to make up for it.
anyways, i went to a party two nights ago (thanks to my homie) and had oodles of fun. haha... well, i dont think that would be the right terminology for it, but hey. i don't care much. i had fun and that's all that matters. and, anyhow, we're planning to hang out this week. oh what fun. :D
as you can tell from two of the three videos today, the topic is freedom.... wait... Bob Segar's song is the freedom to choose what music he wants to listen to. so, in a way, all three are about freedom. anyways, random tangent. freedom. right. america is the country for freedom. but sometimes... ok, usually... it seems there is a price for it. gays don't have the same rights as heterosexuals. correct me if i am wrong. but they have to fight for that. and it doesn't seem right for them to have to fight for freedoms that they should have to begin with. the Constitution clearly stats that all men are created equal. that has come to include blacks, asians, europeans, native americans, hispanics, latinos, women.... should also cover gays and lesbains. "men" is the umbrella term for it and it should always be used that way.
but even now... women don't get paid the same as men in most salaried jobs/careers. i think that is total bogus that women have to work just as hard, if not harder, for less money. i mean, don't get me wrong. we've come a long way for equal rights and freedom for all. but i mean, it's so totally bogus that even when we say we treat everyone equally, paychecks aren't the same. fuck that. let's make equality actually equal. equal rights for EVERYONE, not people we choose to give it to. freedom for EVERYONE, not those who deserve it. freedom and equality are equal opportunity givers.
honestly, freedom shouldn't be given to that 2 percent who make millions, or billions, a year, making most of the U.S. income. we all should have freedom, even those who are under the poverty line. don't they deserve something, too? how about the families who have one salaried worker that the family is dependant on, and have others working waged jobs to help? they deserve so much. single parent families? come now.
freedom and equality for all.

Bon Jovi - We Weren't Born To Follow

:D

Bob Segar - Old Time Rock N' Roll

i love love LOVE this song. :D

okay, i know i haven't written in awhile. i've been working nights and haven't been on a computer in awhile. i'll get this rant out of the way.
i cannot believe that grown men and women can't grow up and be mature enough to allow equal rights for those who aren't of the same sexual orientation as they are. these people are acting as though homosexuals are second class citizens. they aren't they are just like you and me. they work, they support themselves, they go to school, they are human beings. they have feelings. and yes, they should be able to love someone freely and justly just like you. i find it so very wrong that people are hateful or fearful of homosexuals. let me say this.... if you, as a heterosexual, walk up to a homosexual and say "i hate you because you are gay. you should die.", don't you think that is hurtful? have a homosexual come up to you and say "i hate you to your very core because you are straight. you should die." you would feel scared and hurt. exactly the same way a homosexual would feel. so, suck up your shit and move on. because everywhere you go, you just might meet someone who doesn't have the same orientation as you. and hey, guess what? you might not even know and like that person for a who they are. not who they like.
Equal Rights for All. have a nice day.

(last post cont'd)

Yep, hitting the gym today. It will feel amazing.
Anyways... I need to go back to part time at my job. I am writing a book, helping my grandma out and trying to have a life. It suxx when you gotta balance that around working nights. I am not liking items much. So once again I'll be screwing people over but once I am back on part time, it isn't my problem. If we are understaffed it isn't my job to fill in places my managers opened by firing people. Maybe I just need to quit. Hopefully they will realize by treating their crew like shit, they won't have a crew much longer.
Whatever.

I'm done for today. Until next time.

Be strong enough to be yourself. If you can't see the beauty in you, how can anyone else truly see how wonderful you are?

Ok, ok! I missed a day! Two songs today. The first is "Lune" by Bruno Pelletier. From my most favoritest musical of all time. The second is "Watch Me" by Zendaya and Bella Thorn.

So, I got sick on Monday and got a doctor's note through today. I don't go back to work until tomorrow night. Which suxx, in the end, because my day back, I get to close. I am not okay with that. Humbug. I am feeling better today, though, and it's great.
Anyways, I have some good news. My cousin went into labor this morning. Well, the pain, for her, will suck, but what comes from it is a beautiful baby. I can't wait to meet the baby. Of course, I have to feel better first. I think it is such a wonderful gift to have a baby... Ok aside from the fact it keeps you up all night the first few months. But just the miracle of life...
Ok, I'm done.
Monday, I didn't go to the gym. I was too sick.:~( Yesterday, I went but only to use the steam room. Today I am going to actually work out. YAY!! Finally. Phew. It's funny, though, that it took until ingot sick to want to go to the gym. I never really wanted to go, I just went because my parents always wanted me to do some sort of something. Now, when I am sick, I have been almost yearning to go. I told my mom on Monday that I had wanted to go but she said I couldn't. I am feeling better and I will gomto the gym.
