Music Monday/Ricky Martin =X

Music Monday . . On Tuesday [ for the second time lol ]


Ricky Martin - Livin La Vida Loca


Yeah, yeah I picked Ricky Martin for a reason. He came out of the closet after years of keeping quiet. He posted a message on his official message saying "I am a fortunate homosexual man, I am very blessed to be who I am." I didn't think he liked guys all these years but it seems like many suspected, just like with Clay Aiken. I don't really care either way, it doesn't effect my life so let him do him.

B's Prego?!

Rumor has it . .

That the beautiful Beyonce is pregnant with hubby Jay-Z! I didn't believe it at first because there's always rumors about someone being prego but I've heard it in 3 different places now so I'm starting to think it may be true. Either way though they'd make an adorable child. I love them as a couple, they don't put their relationship all in the media and that's definately respectable. Beyonce looks like she'd be a cute prego :) We'll have to wait and see if the rumor is actually true!

Biden Drops The F-Bomb

Vice President Joe Biden has been known to open his mouth without thinking and do you think this should have been any different at the Health Care Bill signing? Nope! After introducing the President he leans in and whispers to him "This is a big f*cking deal!" LOL Oh man so made my day yesterday. He's hilarious. Like hello all those news cameras and microphones there you thought no one would hear you?



I guess he got a little caught up in the moment which is understandable. And you KNOW Obama probably wanted to laugh but he couldn't.

Letting Go . .

"It's not a switch you can just flip off. If you didn't love him, this never would have happened. But you did. And accepting that love -- and everything that followed it -- is part of letting go." ♥



That's a quote from the book I just finished reading Dreamland by Sarah Dessen. It's such a good book and she's SUCH a good author. I definately recommend it to any young adult/teenage girl. Her books are always filled with good quotes too. So go pick it up!

Health Care Reform?

So if you follow the news even atleast a little bit, you know that President Obama's Health Care Reform bill passed yesterday. I'm not really sure why there's all this drama surrounding it though because it sounds like a good thing. Health care for everyone, right? Apparently many people don't feel that way and I kind of want to read the bill just to see what it's all about. And why there is so much controversy with it. One thing I REALLY do respect is that Obama is carrying out the late Ted Kennedy's wishes because he wanted health care reform. That's very noble of him to try to complete what Kennedy wanted and to keep trying until he got it passed.

I don't understand though why some people are saying "Oh, health care isn't a right." Really? Because it should be a right. How would you like it if you were so sick and couldn't be seen at a doctor because you had no health insurance? How would that make you feel? We already have health care for everybody in Massachusetts, which is Mass Health. But I don't know all the details of the bill so I'm not saying it's right or wrong because honestly I don't know the answer to that. I guess we'll see what happens in the coming days.

Everyone DOES deserve and need to have health care though. I'll leave it at that.

My Chick Bad - Ludacris Featuring Nicki Minaj



I usually don't like Ludacris' music a whole lot but I'm definately feeling this song! I don't like Nicki's pink wig though, I think she looks prettier with the other hairstyle/wig whatever you wanna call it. But that's Nicki for ya.

Annabel Lee - Edgar Allan Poe

Last night in my English class we read this poem called "Annabel Lee" by the famous poet Edgar Allan Poe. He lived from 1809-1849 and resided in Boston, MA.

Annabel Lee - Edgar Allan Poe

It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.

I was a child and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea;
But we loved with a love that was more than love-
I and my Annabel Lee;
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
Coveted her and me.

And this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lee;
So that her highborn kinsman came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre
In this kingdom by the sea.

The angels, not half so happy in heaven,
Went envying her and me-
Yes!- that was the reason (as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of the cloud by night,
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.

But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we-
Of many far wiser than we-
And neither the angels in heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.

For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And the stars never rise but I feel the bright eyes
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling- my darling- my life and my bride,
In the sepulchre there by the sea,
In her tomb by the sounding sea.


I really liked the poem because it has such good imagery that you can actually picture the scene as you're reading it. And you can feel that he loved this Annabel Lee unconditionally and is lost without her by his side. I enjoyed it, hopefully you will too.

5 Tips For Headache Sufferers

All my life I've suffered from headaches and migraine headaches. But this past year they were really bad and I finally found some things that actually DO HELP! So I thought I'd share because I know many people suffer with the same thing as me every single day.

One: Put an ice pack on the back of your neck. No matter where your headache is! There are a lot of "trigger points" in the back of your neck that can contribute to headaches. If your headache is in your temples, which is where I get mine, put an ice pack there as well.

Two: For really, really bad headaches try Excedrin: Migraine. It in most cases WILL WORK or atleast take the edge off.

Three: But since Excedrin has alot of caffeine as well as acetaminophen and aspirin, both of which are bad for your stomach if you take too much of it so only take the recommended dosage which is usually 2 pills per dose, go to the drug store and buy some magnesium pills. It was prescribed to me by my neurologist but you can also buy it over the counter! Magesium is all natural unlike excedrin, tylenol, or motrin. Magnesium actually did help my headaches let up so I highly recommend it to people with headaches.

Four: If that doesn't do it for your headaches try adding Vitamin B2 pills. This is another pill that my neurologist recommended to me! It also helped too. You should take them on a daily basis if you get chronic headaches so it'll help as a preventative.

Five: Sometimes caffeine will help your headache go away. I wish that was the case for me but it's not! This is why there's caffeine in Excedrin migraine. Coffee, ice tea, a soda may all help your headache pain subside. Drink in moderation though because too much caffeine isn't good for anybody.

I hope these tips help someone else with migraines and headaches! But I am not a doctor if you do get serious migraine headaches constantly you need to go see a doctor to make sure there's no serious problems because everybody's headaches can come from different sources. They can do an MRI of the brain as well as a CT scan to make sure there are no other problems. There are other medications they can try you on for your headaches but maybe try bringing up the magnesium and vitamin b2 pills to them! Something natural is always better than just un-needed chemicals!

Telephone Music Video

The "Telephone" by Lady GaGa && Beyonce music video premiered last night finally. I didn't really understand what the big deal was or why it was taking so long to be released, or made, whatever the case. But I watched it, all 9 minutes and 32 seconds of it LOL and I see why. GaGa is definately an artist because this video is crazy creative.



What I kind of don't understand is why she's in a prison in the beginning of the video but she's singing about being in a club. Random. But definately a dope video.

[ If for some reason the whole video isn't displayed on the screen click on the video and it should open into a new window so you can see the whole thing! ]

Follow Your Heart



"Do what you love and don't let anyone stop you."

That's one of my favorite quotes. So simple and to the point but it means so much. If you have something you love to do and something you're passionate about then pursue it. Don't listen to what anyone else has to say just do you and do what you're heart is telling you to do.

This Ain't A Dollhouse

A friend made me listen to this song "Dollhouse" by Priscilla Renea and ever since then it's kind of been stuck in my head. Good song. But decide for yourself:


There is an actual music video for this song BUT it wouldn't allow me to post it so if you wanna see the legit video youtube it! It should be the first video that comes up!


Lyrics:

I’m just a girl, you’re just a boy
This is my heart, it’s not a toy
So what’s with you playing with my mind
We used to be cool, this used to be love
Now it’s become, something like a job
Like it or not, maybe things were changing right before our eyes

I tried to be a picture perfect girl
But you were in your own fantasy world
Tryna control me like some kind of Barbie
but that just ain’t me

Cause I ain’t a doll, this aint a dollhouse
You’re way too old to be, puttin me down like this
and playing around like this
I ain’t a doll, this ain’t a dollhouse
No, I could never be, stuck living life like this
behind these four walls,cause I ain’t a doll

You call the shots, right down to my shoes
I liked what you liked cause you told me to
And i don’t think that you could even tell
I fell out of love, but it never showed
I gave up on us so long ago
But you’ll never know
baby don’t pretend like you know me so well

I tried to be a picture perfect girl
but you were in your own fantasy world
try to control me like some kind of Barbie
but that just ain’t me

I ain’t a doll, this ain't a dollhouse
You’re way too old to be, puttin me down like this
and playing around like this
I ain’t a doll, this ain’t a dollhouse
No, I could never be, stuck living life like this
behind these four walls,cause I ain’t a doll

I’ll never be made of plastic
So glad that my heart’s elastic
No matter what you do
I’ll bounce back offa you
Cut me but I’m not bleeding

I tried to be a picture perfect girl
but you were in your own fantasy world
tryna to control me like some kind of Barbie
but that just ain’t me

I ain’t a doll, this ain't a dollhouse
You’re way too old to be, puttin me down like this
and playing around like this
I ain’t a doll, this ain’t a dollhouse
No I could never be, stuck living life like this
Behind these four walls, I ain’t a doll

And I come with imperfections
Epitome of perfection
if you can’t understand, loving the way I am
then you’re no good for me, so glad i kept my receipt.

The Person I Long To Be - Victoria A. Mogyorosi


The Person I Long To Be - Victoria A. Mogyorosi

The day light breaks again
Another day has begun.
But still no sleep has come.
My body is weary

My mind overworked.
I lie awake thinking

But what I am unsure.
I need to break free from the cycle I endure.

Everyday is the same and the nights are undistinguished.
I feel as though I am being pushed along with the tide

Unable to break free from the everyday flow.
This is not me I need to change, before time takes over

And I am unable to change.
I need to be freed from the grasp of ordinary

And become that person I have always longed for.
Express myself in every way, and conquer the dreams as I lie awake.

Then I may fall asleep and put my mind to rest.
Make changes in my life and help those in need.

I would like to touch everyone's life in a positive way
And leave my mark on society before I fade away.



I found this poem while I was browsing a website and I really liked it. It's something I'm sure everyone can relate to. Everybody has had that boring phase in life where everyday is the same and if you haven't I'm jealous of you. The last two lines are so strong too because I feel like most people want to do something in their life that is positive and people will remember them for before they leave this world. Beautiful poem.

Art: What is it to you?

The dictionary definition of art is the quality, production, expression, or realm, according to aesthetic principles, of what is beautiful, appealing, or of more than ordinary significance. But what does art mean to you? Is it a beautiful drawing or painting? An interesting photograph? Poetry? Or is it a dance? What's your favorite form of art? I've heard music, photography, writing, drawing and dance. They're all very different ways to express yourself. I think music is the one most people would probably choose as their favorite simply because there is so much variety of music in the world there is legit something for EVERYONE! Whether you're 6 years old or 60 years old, there is a music genre/song/recording artist for you to listen to. Some people like capturing the moment of something that's beautiful with a camera. Others like to draw. And some even like to dance. Dance is a more physical form of art. You can express yourself physically. But I guess music and dance kind of go together because you have to dance to the music. Art is such a great thing because since there are so many forms of it you can express yourself with something you, yourself, and only you like to do. My favorite form of art is writing. More specifically poetry. I write when I'm sad. I write when I'm happy. I write when I'm mad. I write when I'm stressed. It makes me feel better and express whatever I happen to be feeling at that moment in time. When people think artist they usually think of a painter, or someone that draws amazing pictures. When in reality there are so many different types of artists. Art is everywhere. Art is for everybody.
