Everyone else had Christian and Satine kissing, and I wanted it too, but I'll just pose as Satine... I love Moulin Rouge!


I hate valentine's day...

went to a movie with a friend and two guys, she ends up making out with hers, I sit next to mine thinking... geez I hate my life... still never been kissed...

did I mention I hate valentine's?

If it's not bad enough, I got a valentine's day card, the only one, from my grandma!

Nikita, I'm with ya. This hasn't been the best Valentine's Day either. We didn't have school today so that meant I couldn't see all of my friends and stuff. Then, my aunt is pregnant and we are throwing the babyshower at my house this weekend. 30 women... in my basement. Meaning I've cleaned all day.

And since I am currently single, that meant that the FedEx truck bypassed my house with those roses.

Sigh, just try to remember the better Valentines. It helps. Or try to think of the ones ahead. I am personally looking forward to college, and the prospects that lay there. tongue

So, here's some chocolate- to better V-days ahead. happy

Nikita...don't worry at all, I've never kissed a guy either...and while it isn't always fun, and it is hard to see sometimes...it's better. Because SO many people throw away a first kiss on someone not at ALL worthy of it. I have close friends who have described their first kisses as "disappointments" because they threw them away on drunken guys, or guys who they never talked to or saw again. Yea, it can be a REAL pain on days like Valentine's Day...but it's also good to know that your first kiss can be the way YOU want it to be. So don't be down on yourself happy
Happy early birthday, Sara!!! Hope you get all your wishes true!
34, I loved that song, thanks a million for sending it to me! And trust me, to any of us who are lucky enough to have heard you, the voice WAS enjoyed grin
Excal, oh man, good memories, and you SHOULD get compliments on your singing! grin
OK, well, as it's Valentine's Day (at least according to these boards for a few more hours), I'll do a love song first...but if we keep this going, I'll have others in mind too wink

We left behind

To have you in my life

You were right there for me

In my dreams
I'll always see you soar
Above the sky
In my heart
There always be a place
For you for all my life
I'll keep a part
Of you with me
And everywhere I am

Well you showed me
How it feels
To feel the sky
Within my reach
And I always

Your love made me

Oh, I owe so much to you
You were right there for me

You were right there for me
For always

In my dreams
I'll always see you soar
Above the sky
In my heart
There always be a place
For you for all my life
I'll keep a part
Of you with me
And everywhere I am
There you'll be

Hope that was okay. Happy Valentine's Day, everybody!!!! love

Ah Kimball, what a great song! Brings back memories to when I first saw Kate on the big screen. love Loved the song!

Well, I had a great Valentine's Day, even though I'm single. Spent the evening playing laser tag with some of my favorite people on campus! Then came back and watched PCU (early 90s college movie) and Signs!

And I'm in the mood to sing again...and yes, I'm kind of on a Jake Armerding fix right now (he's one of my friends who is a very talented musician. Plays the piano, violin, mandolin, guitar, etc. And he cut a CD a couple years ago. Just a really talented guy.) so, I'll be singing you another of his songs. wink

So here is:

"Rome" by Jake Armerding

I showed you how to fly but you couldn’t quite believe me
You said that you had other things to do
I asked you if you’d try cause I wanted you up there with me
But you said it didn’t matter much to you

So I flew off alone and scaled the highest mountain
And I swear I had you with me all the time
I knew the great unknown and I bathed in all the fountains
You don’t always have to stay between the lines
Just release your mind

When I asked you again, well you smiled at your friends
And you said you’d only known me but a day
And then when they had gone, well you said it was all over
I knew all I could do was fly away

So I flew off alone again and Rome wasn’t the same without you
And I strung my headache up between the stars
There was room for you but you had to do some shopping
And you never leave your practical ajar, that’s who you are
And I ducked behind a cloud as Lois Lane flew by me
Candidates for heaven, waiting in a line
We could’ve both flown off and found that world together
If you hadn’t said you didn’t have the time
Won’t you please release your mind
Oh no, just release your mind

Because I knew you
I have been changed
For Good!

All you need is love by the Beatles



Love, ah, love.


Love, ah, love.


There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung.
Nothing you can say, but you can learn how to play the game,
It's easy.


There's nothing you can make that can't be made.
No one you can save that can't be saved.
Nothing you can do, but you can learn how to be you in time,
It's easy.


All you need is love,
All you need is love,
All you need is love, love,
That is all you need.


All you need is love,
All you need is love,
Love is all you need...


There's nothing you can know that isn't known.
Nothing you can see that isn't shown.
Nowhere you can be, that isn't where you're meant to be,
It's easy.


All you need is love,
All you need is love,
All you need is love, love,
That is all you need.


All you need is love,
All you need is love,
All you need is love,
That is all you need.
That is all you need.

Nikita: Don't feel bad, I hate valintines day to! At least I do this year. I'm currently single and waiting for my first kiss.

Kimball: You are so right, I was almost kissed on new years, but I hardly knew the guy so I ended up with just a kiss on my cheek. The first kiss is special, I don't want to be dissapointed.


Ooo everyone is doing songs, so I'll do one to! This is one of my all time favorites. So beautiful...

Happy Birthday, Sara. happy

Nice songs, everyone.

I won't go near that discussion over there, because I know I'll get banned if I speak my mind. But if what may come to pass does, that will be the last you see of me. Mind you, it won't be just that that drives me off, it is all the changes, and my differences with a certian mod. sad

As a late V-day present to the ladies and gentlemen here, here is a few pics from me.

Well, I may be a bit late but here is my Valentine's musical offering. This one is for Jaded and all those other girls who guys were to dumb to go for this year. At least you have us. Right?

*Ahem*
Annie's Song
John Denver



You fill up my senses
Like a night in the forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again

Come let me love you
Let me give my life to you
Let me drown in your laughter
Let me die in your arms
Let me lay down beside you
Let me always be with you
Come let me love you
Come love me again

Let me give my life to you
Come let me love you
Come love me again

You fill up my senses
Like a night in the forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again

YODACLONE: What sappy nonsense!

YODA: Beg pardon?

YODACLONE: That's not romantic, that's your lonelieness singing.

YODA: I have a great record with that song! It worked with Natalie.

YODACLONE: One lucky break. Besides, I think you cheated on that date!

YODA: What?

YODACLONE: Don't think I didn't see you trying to use Force Powers when she came in. *Waves hands mimicking* "You find me sexually attractive."

YODA: That's a filthy lie! You go back and check the transcripts! I won Natalie over with my quirkish charm and a large dose of luck!

YODACLONE: Somehow I doubt it. Admit it man, you're lonely! You're able to litteraly swing off the walls in a room full of females but in the real world you won't get within ten feet of one you like! Get some guts! I've been around for a whole year now and you have asked ONE count 'em ONE girl out!

YODA: And she canceled.

YODACLONE: Because she had to work. That was a ligitament excuse. Besides, you still haven't followed up on it. Not to mention that it took you TWO YEARS to get the courage to ask!

YODA: And by that time she had a boyfriend.

YODACLONE: Which is the only reason you asked her. You knew there was no danger. We've gotta snap you outta this man. Listen...

We've Gotta Get You A Woman
Todd Rundgren [slightly altered]

Yoda, boy, is that you?
I thought your post-hangin' days were through,
Sunk-in eyes and full of sighs,
Tell no lies, you get wise,
I tell you now we're gonna pull you through,
There's only one thing left that we can do.

We gotta get you a woman,
It's like nothin' else to make you feel sure you're alive.
We gotta get you a woman,
We better get walkin', we're wastin' time talkin' now.

Yoda, boy, you're my friend
You say how and I'll say when
Come and meet me down the street
Take a seat, it's my treat
You may not ever get this chance again
That empty feeling's just about to end.

Talkin' 'bout life and what it means to you,
It don't mean nothin' if it don't run through
I got one thing to say, you know it's true
You got to find some time to get this thing together.

Talkin' 'bout things about that special one
They may be stupid but they sure are fun
I'll give it to you while we're on the run
Because we ain't got time to get this thing together, 'cause we
Got to get together with a woman who has been around,
One who knows better than to let you down,
Let's hope there's still one left in this whole town,
And that she'll take some time to get this thing together.

We gotta get you a woman
And when we're through with you,
We'll get me one too.

YODA: "We'll get me one too" huh?

YODACLONE: Without you I don't get any action either.

YODA: And good advice is easier to give then to act on huh?

YODACLONE: Guess so. But I'm just in here. You're actually out there. Besides, you said yourself that its good advice.

YODA: I know. Damn.


Wow. I try and write something funny and come out with something depressing/pathetic. Its dangerous to let your muse take over sometimes. I owe you guys one hillarious Yoda's Log.

Yoda, I know exactly what you mean.

And can you girls explain to a poor, confused single male something?

Why is it that the good girls claim there are no decent guys, fall for the jerks, complain about how chivalry has died (when you do good things for them RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM!) and then lock themselves in a room to watch Shane "Flannel-Wearing-Badass" starring movies and weep? Do girls think that the only decent guys are jerks-turned-heroes? Come ON! Jeez! Don't get me wrong, I love movies and hope that I'll get some drama in my life- but crikey! Sometimes I think that girls believe the stereotypes of males in the movies!

Rant over

Valentines Day has an ill effect on me. It's consumer-driven, money-mongering claws were sunk into 99 percent of my floor yesterday, so I spent most of my night reading Spider-man comics and designing my wall mural.

To quote Threepio, sometimes I just don't understand human behavior....

Thanks everyone!! Yay I'm 14 now!! Lmao sounds young, cause most everyone in here is older than me.

Anyway, I don't hate Valentine's Day, but I don't like it. Last year, the dance was on my birthday and it was the worst one I ever had. But this one wasn't so bad, even though Johnny still didn't talk to me, even though I asked him to dance.

I had my first kiss a long time ago, with a guy I'm still in love with. Yes, it's possible for a 14-year-old girl to be in love. Most people tell me I can't be, because I'm too young to understand it.

Ok I'm done my little story now....


happy ~*^SARA^*~ happy

Ohhhhhh... tgy! That was beautiful! You really made my night! *kisses tgy on the cheek*. love

excal: That whole "chivalry gone extint.... no decent males thing" is just a ploy. Trust me, I'd know. I've actually sunken so low to say that myself. Basically translated as said by a girl means "I am so self-concious right now because no one decent ever seems attracted to me." There are a lot of bad guys out there. Great ones too... but sometimes it takes actual work to go out and find them. Which is something most people don't want to do. The idea of a "a prince charming riding up to your house/dorm/sorority/apartment" is something all girls dream of. So easy, so perfect. It's made right out of fiction. And once girls realize that it isnt' going to happen, they take it out on the guys. What once was fictionalized days of "handsome men desiring to whisk you away to a tropical paradise" now becomes a realized reality. Sounds sad, but very true. Don't get yourself down. Seriously, you (and all the other guys here) are one in a million. Once those girls realize that the effort to become close to guys like you, you'll meet that one special girl (or maybe a few tongue ). Just wait it out, it will happen.

And therein ends the analysis of a female's mind. Pretty scary huh? tongue



Ah ha- Sara, you'd be proud! I had my cake all ready because I knew I was babysitting tonight.

*walks into kitchen and retrieves a three layered cake*

SNAP!

*a singing Ewan, lightsaber weilding Hayden, and piraty-Orlando jumps out of cake*

I'm sure they'll help you eat the rest of it... tongue

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARA! May your year ahead be full of new adventures. happy

Well, I just got back from our winter formal, Winter Fantasia, and I had such a great time! Spent it with 3 of my favorite people on campus and it was a blast! While I'm really tired, I'm also really hyper right now. Is that possible?

Has anyone seen any of the promo pics for Pirates of the Carribean yet? I did, theres one in Januarys Entertainment Weekly, Orlando makes a yummy pirate! love


excal: Well, I guess I can take a shot at explaining the "dissapearance of chivalry" thing to a poor confused guy. wink Actualy, I can't blame you for being confused, I'm a girl and it still confuses me!
I know that there are wonderful guys out there, their just so hard to find! And most of them are taken. I am just so sick and tired of guys wanting nothing from me but my body, and when they realize there not going to get that, leaving. So many times they care nothing for me, just my looks. Sometimes its a curse to be pretty I swear.... And believe me, its very discourageing to think a guy likes you, but then as soon as they realize I'm not going to sleep with them they take off. THATS were the whole thing about "no good guys" thing comes from. It makes it much easier just to retreat into fantasy and day dream about movie type heros when real life guys are this way. I know plenty of nice guys (including you guys here, you guys are one in a million) but they are my friends, not my boyfriends.

Lol, okay, theres the end of my rant. I think I went overboard there. But its the truth.

Excal, here is my little take on this, and its probably not going to be good because I'm depressed about something, but here goes. Jaded and Princess are right, and also, you have to understand, almost all girls have been hurt in some manner or other by guys. And once a girl has been hurt, its usually harder to bring down the shields she puts up for herself. Its a self defense, we're afaird to be hurt, and in some respects we take actions against guys to save ourselves from being hurt. You can't prove you're a good guy through actions, or words, she has to decide that for herself, and that takes a lot of time, because less meaningful guys have tried the same as a means of getting at the girl, and in the end, rip another hole into the heart. So, the best place to turn is to some fantasy boy who isn't full of shadows, who they know won't hurt them, and they wish they could have that in real life. You have to accept it, and work with it, give the girl time to realize that you don't mean harm, and have patience.





Now, I would rant right now, but I won't. A. It would probably get me banned because something in this rant involves a mod. B. I'd probably sound whiny and silly for feeling this way about this subject. C. I'm guessing two thirds of you would be rather upset with what I say, so, its not proper... Let's just say that again, I probably won't be back to the ff if things contiue, not that it would be such a big loss if I go.
