Twilight...soundtrack...truly....amazing!!
Ok the rundown on a few of my personal faves from the CD.

*Muse - Supermassive Black Hole ---> More like supermassive ear candy...simply awe-inspiring.

*Paramore - Decode & I Caught Myself ---> They couldn't be more spot on with their exquisite lyrics in union with the breathtaking vocals of Hayley Williams...for lack of better words --->orgasm of the ears.

*Perry Farrell - Go All The Way (Into The Twilight) ---> A little skeptical at first about this one but grew to love, love, love it no time at all. ::hits repeat button::

*Rob Pattinson - Never Think ---> ::Wipes drool from mouth:: Just the acoustic sound of the guitar in this one was enough to make me feel like a little giddy teenage girl again, and then he started singing which further decreased the chances of me acting my age again for the next few minutes. Listening to my girly ohh and ahhhs was probably the highlight of my boyfriend's day.

Anyways there ya have it, I can't really be anymore biased about this CD. Each one comes with a small movie poster inside which is cool, but will probably just stay folded up in the case...I'm not a huge poster person, regardless of whats on it. So, yeah...pretty much a must for any Twilight fan, and thats all I really have to say about that.

Features

-- You got it, you got it,
Some kind of magic.
Hypnotic, hypnotic,
You're leaving me breathless.
I hate this, I hate this,
You're not the one I believe in.
With God as my witness.

So, I just recently moved to Arizona from Texas about 3 months ago. I started working at this hospital here in town, everyone there is real nice, but there is hardly anyone there my age (23). Everyone is either waaaaaay older, or fairly young but married with kids. The only person there I have managed to make friends with is this guy that works down in ICU as a clerk he is 21 and single and without baggage, so he and I get along pretty well. One night at work I had a lot of down time so I played around on Photoshop and made him a fun little picture! He liked it so much he put it on his myspace page. Well I was leaving him a comment just awhile ago to ask him about work when I realized his gf or sex buddy or whatever she is left him a comment on how cool the picture I made him was...so she just took it upon herself to copy and paste it onto HER page like SHE made it!!!! Now am I out of line to get upset about this or not!?!?! I called him and told him it peeved me, he made it seem like he would do something about it, but I'm very non-confrontational so I told him to just forget it, I dont think he understood why it upset me so much. Its not just the fact she stole it and was parading it around like she did it, but its the fact that it was a personal gift from ME to HIM and she basically shit on it! Ya know???

--I think it's disgusting, believing and trusting
If I gave a f**k there would be nothing for me to prove
Although it's amusing, it's slightly confusing
I've done all I can but her ego is still hard to move.

I was just wondering how completely and totally necessary is it to leave tacky, crude comments on other people's deviations??

I mean I understand leaving constructive criticism or maybe some suggestions to improve the work...but how appropriate is it to leave a comment on someones work that says, "this is horrible" ?

My mother always told me...if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all!

I was just wondering if I was the only one that felt this way...eh oh well...on a lighter note here are a few fabulous features...

So, I finally got my Holga after a long tedious battle with Amazon.com, Adorama, and quite possibly the worst UPS delivery guy ever!! But that is a whole different story in itself! I haven't had too much time to shoot with it yet, I have managed to develop one roll so far and...well I need practice! But I guess that is the beauty of Holga...there aren't any rules to using it and the outcomes are always a surprise! In the meantime I will just browse DA and admire other people's Holga creations!! Here are tons of wonderful Holga shots I have found and come to admire greatly!! For anyone reading this that is familiar with using a Holga, please feel free to leave some helpful Holga tips...I would be much obliged as I am feeling my way around a Holga 120 CFN.

--NATHANIEL TO CORA IN THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS--

One of my favorite games growing up was "kidnapped and rescued." I know many little girls who played this--or wished they had. To be the beauty, abducted by the bad guys, fought for and rescued by a hero--some version of this had a place in all our dreams. Like Sleeping Beauty, like Cinderella, like Maid Marian, or like Cora in The Last of the Mohicans, I want to be the heroine and have my hero come for me. Why am I embarrassed to tell you this? I simply love feeling wanted and fought for. This desire is set deep in the heart of every little girl-- and every woman. Yet most of us are ashamed of it. We downplay it. We pretend that it is less than it is. We are women of the twenty-first century after all--strong, independent, and capable, thank you very much. Uh-huh...and who is buying all those romance novels?
Think about the movies you once loved, and the movies you love now. Is there a movie for little girls that doesn't have a handsome prince coming to rescue his beloved? Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, The Little Mermaid. A little girl longs for romance, to be seen and desired, to be sought after and fought for. So the Beast must win Beauty's heart in Beauty and the Beast. So in the gazebo scene in The Sound of Music, the Captain finally declares his love to Maria by moonlight and song and then, a kiss. And we sigh.
Isn't something stirred in you when Edward, finally, returns at the end of Sense and Sensibility to proclaim his love for Elinor? "Then...you're not...not married?" she asks, nearly holding her breath. "No," he says. "My heart is...and always will be...yours." Or how about when Friedrich returns for Jo at the end of Little Women? Or the sunset scene at the bow of the Titanic? And we can't forget Braveheart, how William Wallace pursued Murron with flowers and notes and invitations to ride. She is captured by his love, riding off bareback with him in the rain.
When we are young, we want to be precious to someone--especially Daddy. As we grow older, the desire matures into a longing to be pursued, desired, wanted as a woman. "Why am I so embarrassed by the depth of my desire for this?" asked a young friend just the other day. We were talking about her life as a single woman, and how she loves her work but would much rather be married. "I don't want to hang my life on it, but still, I yearn." Of course. You're a woman.
Now, being romanced isn't all that a woman wants, and I'm certainly not saying that a woman ought to derive the meaning of her existence from whether or not she is being or has been romanced by a man...but don't you see that you want this? To be desired, to be pursued by one who loves you, to be someone's priority? Most of our addictions as women flare up when we feel that we are not loved or sought after. At some core place, maybe deep within, perhaps hidden or buried in her heart, every woman wants to be seen, wanted, and pursued. We want to be romanced.

]]> *Schwester-von-2 These words are my diary, screaming out loud... http://Schwester-von-2.deviantart.com/journal/15555027/ http://Schwester-von-2.deviantart.com/journal/15555027/ Sat, 17 Nov 2007 22:16:41 PST

Everday I'm surrounded by people...whether I'm at work, school, the hospital, or even at home, someone is always around, yet I feel so completely lonely sometimes. Tonight as I watched the fireworks at a festival here in town, a million different thoughts bounced around in my head...mostly about being alone. Maybe alone isnt the correct word, but more like lonely...those are different right? Eh. Anyways I missed watching the fireworks with my boyfriend, I miss doing a lot of things with him.I hate that we are 2 states away from each ohter, and I hate not being able to share new experiences with him. He is quite possibly the most entertaining person to share new things with, whether it be watching a new movie together that neither of us have seen...or going new places together. I also sat there tonight listening to people around me, whether they were happy people excited about the fireworks, or angry people fighting because their girlfriend dropped their drink and had to go buy another one. Its times like that I want to turn around and tell them they are lucky to be around each other to fight and maybe give them 2 bucks for a new drink and tell them to shut up. I also heard someone talking about their relationship problems tonight. I didnt catch the whole story but what I did catch was so childish. It almost never ceases to amaze me what people will fight over. In an effort to look past the seemingly bad relationships I saw tonight I turned to look for some good, happy ones...which didnt take long to find. All around me were couples all balled up in each others arms watching the fireworks while occasionally sneaking in a few kisses here and there. I wanted to be balled up in somones arms!!! I wanted to sneak in a kiss here and there!!! We....there was that aching loneliness again. I also started to think about me moving away in May after I graduate. I started thinking about how am I going to search for jobs in Arizona?? how am I going to go to interviews?? what do I wear?? what do I say?? will I burst out in laughter in the middle of it b/c I'm trying so hard to be serious?? Then I wondered how I would do all this and still find a place to live. I also started wondering why in the world those fireworks that move once they are in the air scare the ever livins out of me!! I literally squirm a little each time they move around. Then I went back to the serious stuff...am I really going to be happy in Arizona?? Am I really happy here?? I'm happy here b/c all my friends and family are here anytime I need them. I will be happy in Arizona b/c the man I would spend the rest of my life with (yep...not afraid to say it) is there and I could see him everyday. But then I realized that no matter how far I went...whether it was 2 hours away to Dallas, 16 hours away to Arizona, or halfway across the world to Alaska, that my friends and family will still be here anytime I need them...it just might take me awhile to get to them. And then I remembered this cute card I saw in a store one time...bear with me as I try to explain this. It was a childish cartoon drawing of a map of the US and in one corner was a stick figure with long arms reaching all the way over to the opposite corner hugging another stick figure. And inside it said "In a perfect world I could stretch my arms across the world to hug you...but then again if it was a perfect world I wouldnt have to...because you would already be here." That made me smile. I was going to buy it for a friend at the time, but decided against it...we dont talk anymore. I would like to say this note had a point, but I would be lying. Its more or less just a small part of what I go through and what I think day after day after day. Eh...I guess I could throw in a moral or maybe something I learned today. GOT ONE!! It goes back to the couples that argue over dumb things and wont let it go. When it comes down to it when you finally find someone you care about its important to let go of the little things, even if you cant let go all the way...because nothing sucks more than feeling all alone...no matter how many people are around.

Which brings me to the last part of this note...why do I put myself through this?? Because I believe good things dont come easy. I have been through enough hard times in my life to know I have something AMAZING with my boyfriend. Like I was telling his sister tonight...I want nothing more than to be with him and just spoil him. Even if it means that I have to be away from him right now. Because one of these days these feelings of loneliness with fade away. Its times like this that make us the person we are today. I wouldnt be who I am now if I had nothing but good things happen to me all my life. I also feel its God's way of testing me and how I will be when things are rough. If I can praise Him in the good times, I should be able to praise H... ]]> *Schwester-von-2 Take me as I am, or leave me alone... http://Schwester-von-2.deviantart.com/journal/15525727/ http://Schwester-von-2.deviantart.com/journal/15525727/ Thu, 15 Nov 2007 23:42:50 PST -Because of that, I'm terrified to move.

-I have never done any drugs or even TRIED a cigarette, the thought of either just never appealed to me.
-I didnt have my first real alcoholic drink until I was 21.
-With that in mind, I can probably count on one hand how many times I have been legally intoxicated in my entire life...I just really dont like to drink much.
-I am generally happy with my appearance and myself.
-If I had to rate my happiness right now with the way things are in my life it would be about a 5.
-I suck at hiding my emotions...people can generally read me like a book.
-I can count on one hand the number of people outside of my family that I can actually fully trust.
-I'm still not completely over what my ex did to me, I'm completely over him...just not what he did.
-I still sometimes blame him cheating on me my fault.
-I have a tendency to hold a grudge.
-I have never cheated on a boyfriend, I hate people who do.
-Infidelity makes my stomach turn and upsets me more than anything.
-My memory is like a rol-a-dex...I can remember every slight detail of anything.
-I have absolutely NO sense of direction...I can make a twenty minute trip turn into a two hour trip from getting lost.
-I am constantly worried about money.
-I honestly have a real problem with shopping...I didnt want to admit it at first, but now I have come to the realization that I do.
-I was saved and baptized on my 20th birthday.
-I have slight roadrage.
-Sadly enough my boyfriend's sister is one of the few people that I can trust...its not sad that I can trust her, its sad that I trust her more than some people I have known my whole life. I cant explain why.
- People who cant use the words "your," "you're," "there," and "their" correctly bug the ever livins out of me!
-One of my fears of getting married is putting on weight afterwards.
-I secretly criticize everyone's relationship except my own.
-I used to go through all my boyfriend's phones, emails, computer files etc...to see if they were messing around on me...I have only been right once.

-I cant stand being mad at someone.
-Failure is my biggest fear in life.

-I LOVE black and white photos.
-I honestly think I would fall to complete pieces if one of my parents died.

-I never tried to kill myself but it USED to cross my mind all the time.
-My parents almost had to get me help when I was in high school b/c of my depression.
-Now I think suicide is one of the dumbest things, its a coward way out of life.
-I have kissed way too many guys that it physically makes me sick to my stomach when I think about it.
-I have had sex with only one guy, and that is the guy I'm with now. We did it once and then decided to wait until we got married, not b/c it was bad b/c it wasnt, but b/c it felt like the right thing to do.
-With that being said, I want to marry my boyfriend, not now or anytime soon, but later in the future.
-I am slowly becoming more indecisive about ever having kids.
-I can sometimes be a very jealous person, and its one of the things I really hate about myself.
-Actually the thing I hate the MOST about myself is how I have a horrible tendecy to not act like the Christian that I claim to be.
