Don’t You Forget About Me by Simple Minds
Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving me everything inside and out and
Love’s strange so real in the dark
Think of the tender things that we were working on
Slow change may pull us apart
When the light gets into your heart, baby
Don’t you forget about you
Don’t don’t don’t don’t
Don’t you forget about you
Will you stand above me?
Look my way, never love me
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down
Will you recognise me?
Call my name or walk on by
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down, down

Mae, the band i neglected. They were deff on my Ipod Azul the first time around. When i just put anything and everything on there. How did i find them? Pandora.com && thank you quil for reminding me about them.
I was in muchooo infatuation with Mae. These are one of their songs. My favorite song by them is “The Everglow”, off the album, “The Everglow”. but, this is a good one too.
“Suspension” by Mae.**
Lately I’m alright
and lately I’m not scared
I’ve figured out,
that what you do to me feels like
I’m floating on air.
I don’t need to know right now
all I know is I believe
in the very thing that got us here
and now I can’t leave.
Say anything, but say what you mean,
cause I’m caught in suspension.
Now,
I’m wanting this for sure
and I’ll beg for nothing more.
I’ll plan all day and drive all night
you’ll love what’s in store.
I cant seem to stop this now
even if its not so clear,
and I’ll take what I can get.
If you want me here (If you want me here)
Say anything, but say what you mean.
When you whisper you want this
your eyes tell the same.
We are gaining speed
I can barely breathe.
Cause I’m caught in suspension.
It’s enough for me to get excited,
it’s enough for me to feel…OH!
Say anything, but say what you mean.
When you whisper you want this.
Your eyes tell the same
We are gaining speed (suspension)
I can barely breathe (Oh please say what you mean)
I’m caught in suspension (suspension)
Say (say) anything (suspension)
but say what you mean. (Oh, I can barely breathe)
I’m caught in suspension.
I’m caught in suspension.
We are gaining speed, (suspension)
I can barely breathe. (Oh I can barely breathe)
Cause I’m caught in suspension.
I’m caught in suspension.
**Every Monday, lets shoot for a new song. Everyone loves good music and needs new music. I’m just doing some a favor.
“Yo yo yo! All…you…sucka MCees ain’t got nothin’ on me. From my grades to my rhymes, you can’t touch Kevin G. I’m a mathlete, So a nerd is inferred, but forget what you heard, I’m like James Bond the Third. Sh-sh-shaken not stirred, I’m Kevin Gnapoor. The G is silent when I sneak through your door and make love to your woman on the bathroom floor. I don’t play it like Shaggy, you’ll know it was me ‘cause the next time you see her she be like “Oh! Kevin G…”

Mean Girls (via quil)
Ahhhh, one of my favorite parts of Mean Girls…..hmmm…..i Know i have the DVD somewhere……
So, as it seems......
well. i’m a wreck in the morning && a wreck in the evening. im slightly afraid of the dark, yet i love laser tag and night-tag. im an idealist but i dont have the guts to do half of the ideas i think of. im extraordinary. i dont live up to people’s expectations. i’ve learned to work first, then play later. people always come before me, its a blessing and a curse. i write these fictional stories that have been sparked by my imagination-yet I have yet to finish any of them. I fail on the regular. i enjoy new music. i’m random&& weird. im addicted to twitter. i’ve been told that i look like my madre and i dont know how i feel about that. i live for compliments and now, im waiting for someone to tell me that im beautiful and mean it. my name is giselle. im a junior at saint saviour high school. im remodeling my life completely and making sure im true to myself. trust me, we can have sexy times together. i will deff make sure i “gis your pants”. lolsx. =)
This is what I’ve figured about my life so far. Lets see if we can get the rest. This is just the beginning. The basics. Time to get a little bit more complex.
“At the end of the day, when it comes down to it, all we really want is to be close to somebody. So this thing, where we all keep our distance and pretend not to care about each other, is usually a load of bull. So we pick and choose who we want to remain close to, and once we’ve chosen those people, we tend to stick close by. No matter how much we hurt them, the people that are still with you at the end of the day - those are the ones worth keeping. And sure, sometimes close can be too close. But sometimes, that invasion of personal space, it can be exactly what you need.”

There isn’t much to say. i just like the song. Alot. I like Owl City. Alot. my friend Sarah told me about them before Kandace, but they slip my mind. Until this.*smiles*
Fuzzy Blue Lights by Owl City.
If I could look across the country
From California to New Jersey
Then I would count the parks and lake resorts
And number all the jets and airports
All those rather dreary rain clouds still bother me
Cuz I look through the camera eyepiece and cannot see
If I could open up my window
And see from Tampa Bay to Juneau
Then I would survey all those open miles
And line them up in single file
Everywhere I look I see green scenic sublime
And all those oceanic vistas are so divine
If I was standing on the balcony
And you were walking down below
I’d feel rather depressed and out of place
And lonely just to watch you go
If you were swinging from the highway overpass
Within the western hemisphere
I’d feel rather afraid and insincere
If you began to disappear
If I was walking through a sad art gallery
And you were driving through the night
I’d feel rather alone and ill at ease
Beneath the brilliant showroom light
If I was flying on a plane above your town
And you were gazing at the sky
Somehow I’d feel intact and reassured
If you began to wave goodbye
Growing Up
I think it actually took the praises of my bestfriend to actually realize what i’m doing with my life. If i’m not mistaken, this is exactly what she said:
Best friend : “oh, hun, I am so proud of you.”
Me: “why?”
Best friend: “oh oh oh, i’m so overwhelmed with emotion and pride…..”
etc. etc. etc. Seriously. Best friend really said something like this and I just said thank you with a question mark. What exactly were we talking about? I had to go to Long Island University to try and sign up for college classes in the fall. (which didn’t happen because i’m going to be a junior, etc.). At the time of this late night conversation, I really didn’t pay much attention to it. Because, what was going through my mind was that:
Me in head: ” well duh, i have 9 college credits, 6 at my disposal and I can take 2 college classes at LIU. Why would I let these credits just sit there and not do anything with them? And then, the obvious answer is, woman, of course I’m growing up. I’m about to be 16 years old.”
But best friend doesn’t know this, until now. So. i migrated to LIU, 2 days ago, I believe and had high hopes to sign up for the English Lit class and the Psychology class. But, was shot down due to reason that was mentioned in the parentheses above. And on my train ride home, it was pouring outside. The rain hit the train with such an intensity, that it kept my interest for the whole ride. And then, I started to ponder on all of the things I’ve been doing for the past 2 weeks.
Prior to my trip to West Philly(born and raised…..Fresh Prince, never gets old), the idea of college wasn’t in the noggin and the whole “being a kid” idea was something that never got old. Then, the douches i call bestfriends decide, “oh, lets look at my college spam and figure out our lives-2 AM IN THE MORNING!” who does that?
Kandace Michelle and Alyssa Marie.
my 2 best friends, who are freakishly smart and can possibly get into any school they like. Me? ha! i was being Dark and Twisty and just ignored.
But then, i checked my college spam in my email and then, the 3 of us sat in front of a computer and just requested information for a bunch of schools. It was the best time of my life. I never felt so fucking excited in a while. I felt alive. Because, maybe, my life was changing for the better.
Ever since Philly, I’ve been doing this thing called Growing Up. Making plans, not breaking plans, and adding to my To-Do List. Its amazing. But I never really noticed. Until that statement made by Best Friend. For that, I am forever grateful.
When i said, there was something different in the air, I meant it.

Move Along
All the pain and disappointment you caused me.
All these years I spent hating you.
Missing you…
Loving you…
I had a wonderful life, filled with joy and success,
And yet, I failed. For so long, I could not give my heart entirely to anyone
Your betrayal made me loose a part of myself
A part I could never get back
But at the same time, gave me my most precious gifts
You saved my life from the nightmare of being with you But now, you’re gone
I hope you are not alone anymore
Your debt was paid long ago Go. find your peace…… as I found mine
