I Waited for You by Valora (Official Music Video)

Posted in Music, Video with tags , , on November 10, 2011 by razor

I heard this song for the first time tonight.  A lot of people were hating on it – but I REALLY LIKE IT!

I waited so long for you
You promised me the world when you’d return
Are you gonna come back empty handed?
You think I’ll be waiting for you?
You better think again…
and You’d better wake up
Cause You were wrong! ~Valora

 

Idiot by Lisa Marie Presley

Posted in Music, Video with tags , , , on November 1, 2011 by razor

I have had this song in my head for about three weeks or so now. Love the lyrics. I wanted to pick out my favorite to post – but all the lyrics are good!

“Idiot”

Please remember me forever
Believe in me as someone
Who’s never gonna wish you well

I’m gonna tell you what I think about you in that unforgivable way I do
You’re an idiot
And I hate your guts
I guess I’m about as happy for you as I would be a cockroach in my food
I know it’s terrible
I really hate you though

Do you have your fairytale life
Or are you dancing to the white trash twist
Oh please remember me
Believe in me as someone
Who’s never gonna wish you well

And I heard the opposite of love isn’t hate
It’s indifference
But I can’t relate
It’s not good enough
Cause I hate your guts

Did you settle your mediocre mind
You had the fine wine you’re better off with Bud Light

So here we are, I hope you can tell that I’m no referral
You can have ‘em, call hell
You’re gonna drive ‘em nuts
They’re gonna hate your guts

Obey Your Master Artist: Lauren Bergman

Posted in Art, Art Exhibits, Music, Video with tags , , , , , , , on October 31, 2011 by razor

I have to admit that as I was reading Lauren Bergman’s Bio and looking at her art – I thought that I am incredibly interested to see what she will produce for the Obey Your Master art show.  Lauren Bergman was raised in the D.C. area and was greatly influenced by her “mother’s revolutionary disposition, reacting against cultural expectations of the times, an environment that encouraged Bergman to become an accomplished artist.” (Lauren Bergman’s Official Website – Bio)  Her art explores “the complexities of female identity” and her recent exhibition, Calhalla, portrays “the ‘idealized female’ within the context of an idealized or ‘mythicized’ America.”  She uses California as the “archetype for the American idyll.” 

However, it is not the California that may be most familiar to Metallica’s fans or their genre.  As I viewed this art and Bergman’s commentary on it, I could not help but think of the contrast of the California I think of when I think of metal bands, especially hair metal band of the 80′s – LA strip, with all of it’s girly bars.  And the Metallica video that came to mind was “Turn the Page”.  In the video, a woman, a stripper, is protrayed as highly sexualized – as in Bergman’s paintings, with the contrast of the innocence of a child (the stripper’s daughter) – but the protrayal in Metallica’s video is far from idealized.  Like Bergman’s art, I believe that this video makes a highly politicized statement.

I can’t wait to see how Bergman will pose her tribute to Metallica!

We Found Love by Rihanna

Posted in Music, Video with tags , , , , , , on October 28, 2011 by razor

I am feeling so incredibly wonderful this morning.  I feel like I am on a high that I never want to come down from!  I feel like I am going 150 mph on the autobahn!

Last night was interesting.  Al had invited me to the Shamrock to see the Rapids’ playoff game.  When I walked onto the patio – I greeted everyone – and then noticed that Will was there.  I haven’t spoken to him in about a month.  I was uncomfortable at first – but the I soon realized that I am not owned by anybody.  I have never made any promises or commitments to anyone – not Al, not Will.  I sat next to Will because that is where there was an empty stool.  All I needed was Charles to be there – and all three of the soccer hooligans that have crushes on me would have been there.  Will bought me two beers before the night was over, but Al made sure that he was the one to walk me out.  Ha – indeed, I belong to noone but myself and the Universe!

On the way home – a poem just came to me.  I have tapped into my creativity lately!

This morning I finally got to see the new Rihanna video for We Found Love.  It’s amazing.  I love the cinematography… and I can relate to her opening line:

And when it’s over and it’s gone, you almost wish you can have all that bad stuff back so you can have the good… ~Rihanna

Mental Health Day

Posted in Journal, Music, Video with tags , , , , , , , , on October 12, 2011 by razor

I decided to take a mental health day to work on my case brief and regroup here in my house.  So I slept in, text my friends, checked my email and facebook and have had two cigarettes so far.

Not so happy about the two cigarettes.  During this process of breaking up with Mike – I have become addicted to cigarettes.  Not good – but I guess it is what I needed at the time.  I will have to work on weaning myself off real soon.

I didn’t text Mike this morning – as a matter of fact, I deleted him and Jen from my contacts.  I know his number by heart – so I can contact him in the future should I ever need to, and I have Jen’s number in my skype (but if she were smart – she would have changed her number…)  It actually felt good to delete the numbers, and the thought of not texting him anymore feels good.  But the song “Meet Me Halfway” came on, and I thought of him.  This is really a process for sure.

I had dreams last night – dreams that I believe are helping to dissolve my pain – my pain from this relationship, and pain from other relationships in the past.  All I remember is that I was driving from Colorado to Kansas in a trailer.  At one point we had stopped, and there was my boyfriend (faceless I think) holding hands with another woman.  I walked up to the other woman and told her “He’s mine – don’t you know that?’  It reminded me of when Keith and I were breaking up, and I spied on him, and saw him holding one of his friends hands.  I made a scene.  I was so young then.  When I was back on the trailer, I realized that he had went back to Colorado with the girl.  I was begging for the driver to take me back, but they wanted to make it to the border of Kansas.  At one point in the dream, I was with these really, really young girls that were having issues with masturbation.  That wasn’t the problem – the problem was that they would do it in public (like Tracy in 5th grade).  One of them started masturbating.  She grabbed a bristle brush and stuck it inside of her – bristle end first.  I was so concerned for her.  I went and told on her.  But the guy I told was worried about the brush and not the girl.  I said something to him like “she is going to tear herself up on the inside.”

I really do want to dissolve all of this pain.  It’s there – no doubt about it.  I can enjoy the present at times despite it, and but I know dissolving it will be a good thing.  I am glad that I have this opportunity to try and deal with those past pain build ups as well.

I can’t go any further than this
I want you so badly, it’s my biggest wish

I spent my time just thinkin thinkin thinkin bout you
Every single day yes, i’m really missin’ missin’ you
And all those things we use to use to use to do
Hey boy, wuz up, it use to be just me and you
I spent my time just thinkin thinkin thinkin bout you

Meet me halfway, right at the boarderline
That’s where i’m gonna wait, for you
I’ll be lookin out, night n’day
Took my heart to the limit, and this is where i’ll stay
I can’t go any further then this
I want you so bad it’s my only wish

Boy, I travel round the world and even sail the seven seas
Across the universe I go to other galaxies
Just tell me where you want, just tell me where you wanna to meet
I navigate myself myself to take me where you be
Cause boy I want, i, i, I want you right now
I travel uptown (town) I travel downtown
I wanna to have you around (round) like every single day
I love you alway..ways

Let’s walk the bridge, to the other side
Just you and I (just you and I)
I will fly, i’ll fly the skies, for you and I (for you and I)
I will try, until I die, for you and i, for you and i, for for you and i,
For for you and i, for for you and i, for you and i

So Over You

Posted in Journal, Music, Video with tags , , , , , , on August 29, 2011 by razor

This has to be a record time that I got over somebody.  I lost all respect for Mike, and my view of him has been changed tremendously.  Yesterday I was pining away for him, and perhaps it was because I spent a whole weekend, sick, cooped up and working on papers for graduate school.  Feeling like I missed him incredibly last night, I contacted him.  He did not feel like talking.  He injured his ankle at a soccer game.  He put his phone on silent – but I blew it up all night with text messages and phone calls begging him to have one last conversation with me. 

I woke up early and went straight to work (with the intention of being done with everything that needed to be done, and then get out of there by 7 am and take a sick day. Didn’t happen. ) Mike called on his way to work I suppose.  I could barely talk because my throat is still a mess – I don’t even really remember what we talked about.  At some point he started reading the texts that I sent to him last night.  When he saw the message that I had my first lesbian experience – he was all over that.  Once again, the subject of a threesome came up (see earlier post where he just gets so obssesive about the subject.)  Soon – he just went into this rant about how I never gave him anything that he wanted – that was the one thing that he wanted, etc.  I guess if his rant had just stayed at that – it would have been ok – or at least tolerable.  I have heard him say all of those things before.  But then he started begging, conjoling, and manipulating me to try to allow him to join me and Randy in a threesome.  This is when I noticed his absolute disregard for others when it comes to sex – and his weird mind set about it.  The other night when I asked him why he had lied about coming to Pueblo the day before my birthday, he answered, “Becasue I didn’t want you to be with anybody,”  regardless of the fact that he already has a new girlfriend.  He is the absolute eptiome of the saying my mom alsways told me, “Men are like dogs with bones – they don’t want them, but they don’t want anyone else to have them either.”  He offered to break up with his new girlfriend, and then ask her back out after the threesome – or just let her go completely “there are plenty of other women out there”.  And then he said something that I couldn’t believe – “It would be a good way to bring closure to our relationship.”  Anyway – I realize that he has no intention of leaving this new girl, and ending up with me (duh – big red truck) – but even more – I realized that he is shady to his very core.  He finally admitted to me that he broke up with me the first time in the hopes of being able to go out with Maddie.  He hasn’t admitted that he broke up with me this last time becasue he was interested in this new girl – but I know it’s true.  But he is being a shady dog with her as well.  What the hell?  He said that they weren’t in a “committed relationship” (thinking back to the time that he told Maddie that Kitsune was in the back yard because school was on vacation and I had a back yard) – but it makes him nervous to not be in a committed relationship with her.  He doesn’t want her “to sleep with anybody else.”  And yet he is on the phone begging me to let him join a threesome.

Anyway – I changed my number.  It felt so good, and I feel so free!  I can’t believe how doing that one thing has made me feel light and empowered.  I have no desire to talk to him ever again.  I saw a side of him that just disgusts me.

What goes around comes back around…
There was a time
I thought, that you did everything right
No lies, no wrong
Boy I, must’ve been outta my mind
So when I think of the time that I almost loved you
You showed your ass and I, I saw the real you

Thank God you blew it
I thank God I dodged the bullet
I’m so over you
So baby good lookin’ out

I wanted you bad
I’m so through with that
Cause honestly you turned out to be the best thing I never had
You turned out to be the best thing I never had ~Beyonce

Not Over You by Gavin DeGraw (Official Music Video)

Posted in Music, Video with tags , , , , , , on August 28, 2011 by razor
Dreams, that’s where I have to go
To see your beautiful – face anymore
I stare at a picture of you, and listen to the radio
Hope, hope there’s a conversation
Where we both admit we had it good
But until then it’s alienation, I know
That much is understood – and I realizeIf you ask me how I’m doing
I would say I’m doing just fine
I would lie and say that you’re not on my mind
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for two
And finally I’m forced to face the truth,
No matter what I say I’m – not over you (not over you)Damn, damn boy you do it well
And I thought you were innocent
Took this heart and put it through hell
But still you’re magnificent
I’m a boomerang, doesn’t matter how you throw me
I turn around and I’m back in the game
Even better than the old me
But I’m not even close without youAnd if I had the chance to renew
You know there isn’t a thing I wouldn’t do
I could get back on the right track
But only if you’d be convinced
So until then…

The Sound of Missing You by Wildboyz ft. Ameerah (Official Video)

Posted in Music, Video with tags , , , , , , , , on August 28, 2011 by razor


I miss hearing your voice,
All the words that you said to me
But now this empty space fills me up and takes over me
And I cant escape it

It always keeps coming back
The sound of missing you
I hear it all around
The sound of missing you
The silence is so loud
The sound of missing you

I cant break through these walls that are rising in front of me
And the deeper I fall, I realise I never gonna be free
Baby release me

It always keeps coming back
The sound of missing you
I hear it all around
The sound of missing you
The silence is so loud
The sound of missing you

Time goes by and it feels like Im just going out of my mind
What we had, bring it back now
Cause Im feeling empty inside
Oh, times goes by and it feels like Im just going out of my mind
What we had, bring it back now
Cause Im feeling empty inside

It always keeps coming back
The sound of missing you
I hear it all around
The sound of missing you
The silence is so loud

(Yeah) I miss hearing your voice,
All the words that you said to me (oh I need you)
But now this empty space fills me up and takes over me (heeeey)
(Baby release me)
I cant break through these walls, they are rising in front of me (it alway keeps coming back)
(The sound of missing you)
And the deeper I fall, I realise I never gonna be free (I hear it all around)
(The sound of missing you)
I cant break through these walls, they are rising in front of me (the silence is so loud)
The sound of missing you

The sound of missing you

The sound of missïng you

All the Lovers by Kylie Minogue (Official Music Video)

Posted in Journal, Music, Video with tags , , , , , , , on August 28, 2011 by razor

After one has had so many lovers, and you find one that is so compatible, and lose them – there is the fear that noone else will ever be as good. But in all probability, with 7 billion people in the World – there is still hope to perhaps find someone even more compatible.

It hurts
When you get too close
But baby it hurts
If love is really good
You just want more
Even if it throws you to the fire fire fire fire

All the lovers
That have gone before
They don’t compare to you
Don’t be running
Just give me a little bit more
They don’t compare
All the lovers ~Kylie Minogue
