Oops... I forgot the words!

Last night on American Idol, finalist Brooke White begun her song, and forgot the words after the first ten seconds. As I watched the show my heart ached for her. That must feel like absolute pain. To know that your one shot each week on national television is over. She re-started the song but it was still on everyone's mind. I was most shocked by Paula's statement telling Brooke to never stop a song, but if you think about it, how could you go on. I know if i did not know the words to a song I would be completely done, I probably would not have been able to continue.

Procrastinating.... in the flesh

Ellen DeGeneres's HBO special, about procrastinating, it is like she was in my head. It is hilarious. This is just the first ten minutes.




This is the second part... there are like 6 parts, but I am just posting the first two!

The Perfect Song....

Sometimes things happen in life, and you feel like no one understands you, and then you turn on the radio and there it is. That song, and you feel like wow, the artist must be inside my head. Every note they sing gives you chills you feel overwhelmed and if you’re a girl you will probably cry. As the drama in my life continued I heard this song while driving to school in my mom’s truck. She has all these stations I never listen to and I turned on the radio and it was just there. It is called “I’m Not Missing You”. The chorus is :
I'm not missing you
I'm not going through the motions
Waiting and hoping you call me
I'm not missing you
You might have had me open
But I must be going because
I got life to do
I know I'm usually hanging on
I used to hate to see you gone
But this time it's different
I don't even feel the distance
I'm not missing
I'm not missing you

I have realized people will go to great lengths to put me in a bad mood, and this song just said it all for me. I will no longer fall apart and cry over people who really do not matter. This song made me realize that life goes on, and everyone finds that special someone, but this process is not to be rushed. So for now that is one piece of the puzzle that fits.

One Tree Hill Returns

The wait is over. April 14, 2008 ended the wait for new episodes on One Tree Hill. If anyone was shocked at Nathan and Lucas jumping their own father, I was not. Finally things are coming together for the group of friends.. Well some of them. Nathan and Haley are picking up their marriage and life is getting better for them. While Brooke is looking into adopting and becoming a mother, her own mother has been removed from her life, and I think it is for the best. Nanny Carrie was not mentioned in this episode and thank God for that, because I never want to see her on the show again. As for Lucas, he fiancé left him at the alter, leaving him broken inside. This of course was good for Peyton who wants Lucas back, but Lucas just wants Lindsay. I am sure I am not the only one who wants that to change. Dan has changed. For those of you just tuning in Dan killed his own brother, who was Lucas’s father figure, and ended up being released from jail, but the truth comes out now. The episodes will continue to be filled with more drama. Sadly these are the things that i look forward to. Until next time, wait for another piece of the puzzle.

When it Rains it Pours....

Due to one crisis after another I have not been posting. Partially to blame is my procrastinating, but on a serious note, I was in my first car accident on April 3rd and after that fiasco, they just kept coming. Here is some background. Manager cut my hours at work, so a second job was needed. Then on a more serious level, my grandma got very ill and was in the hospital for the past two weeks and I have been there every day with her. I have all four grandparents and on the other side my other grandma fell on her bad knee and had to be rushed to the emergency room, and the drama did not stop there. The statement “when it rains it pours” is an understatement for the month I have had. With things winding down, I figured I owed my readers an explanation. Sorry about that. Sometimes putting all the pieces together takes longer than expected. My advice, always leave room for problems, and if you’re a procrastinator this will be hard for you, but try.
