Learning to walk...

Well I've finally got the green light to get rid of all the "assistances" while walking and beginning minor activity..wohoo! Slowly but surely I'm getting there. Although the folks can't be bothered...they're staying cautious, and all I want to do is run around like no tomorrow. Oh, and drive. I miss driving.

So I ran a question on chat the other day asking if people thought I was a blog-writing type of person. I have to admit, I was totally surprised to learn *everyone* thought I was. I've never really been the writing type. Creative maybe. Editor, oh yeah. But writing a LOT was just never my thing. Apparently the world doesn't think so...sigh...

Well anyway, I'm starting to pen thoughts here, let's see how often I keep it up. Time for my exercises. Learning to walk was more fun when I was one. 

(3) musketeers

So three years and counting and here I am again...

Thanks GCJ for reminding me I had a blog out there somewhere, and starting the revolution. No promises on keeping this updated though.

Much like one of my favorite TV characters, my life currently revolves around my leg. And tons of sarcasm. You should always be careful what you wish for.

White flag

There are tons of songs you like and identify with. Words were put into my mouth the other day, and well, I did it. But this is what I kind of really feel and want to say.

Dido - White Flag. Yup. I never say die. In most cases, anyway.

"White Flag"

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you,
Or tell you that.
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
where's the sense in that?

I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I know I left too much mess and
destruction to come back again
And I caused nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of "it's over"
then I'm sure that that makes sense

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

And when we meet
Which I'm sure we will
All that was there
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on....

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

Goblet of Fire

Harry Potter and GoF: Overall 4.75 stars
Very well made, indeed, considering they had to squeeze twice the size compared to PoA in the same time frame.
I wasn't too crazy about the ending...they could've spent more time explaining and less time sending the Durmstrangs and Beauxbatons away. Ah well.
Lord Voldemort was pretty well done, as were the three tasks.
Avada Kedavra. Green light.

WHAT A BIRTHDAY!

I have some awwwweeesomely awesome residents!

First they come with cake and cards and balloons at midnight. Then they decorate my little passageway for me in the morning. And when the day was gloomy and the weather went bad...I read the card, and it was perfect! Literally, the best birthday card ever!!!

So then my staff wished me and made sure I remembered my birthday.

Then my cousin gave me her and my parents' presents.

I got wished by my cousins and family and friends. I got tons and tons of facebook messages. Thanks everyone for those, I will reply to each of you within the next couple of days!

And then, we went on a C&C generals rampage until 3 a.m! Totally this floor's computer game of all time.

-----------------------------------------------

If you ever had a birthday, and wanted it sooo badly again, for me it was when I turned 22.

THANK YOU SOOO MUCH EVERYONE! THAT WAS A TRULY AMAZING BIRTHDAY. EVERYONE WHO WISHED ME, AND EVERYONE WHO EVEN THOUGHT OF ME TODAY....MY HEARTFELT GRATITUDE.

----------------------------------------------

I don't normally give special shoutouts, because everyone just has an equal share. But from everyone I heard today, there was one name that really stood out.
I have to have a special secret shoutout to LND. LND is amazingly awesome, and put together a lot of the efforts. THANK YOU SOOO MUCH.

May be

May be this is what I wanted,
To stay in peace away from you,
It’s sad, it’s true, may be things are best now that we are through.

May be I am happy that it got no further,
I did not have to confront my feelings for you.
Every time my mind repeats the scene, I get firmer,
May be this time I will forget you.

May be I should have told you that I love you.
May be its best if I dont pretend,
Everything hurts so much right now,
I wish may be we’d never met.

Yet it isnt all your fault.
I set my self up for the fall.
And though thinking may be, may be makes it better,
There really was no may be there at all.

Warmth

I don't know...I'm a little confused...bewildered even.

Just when there are so many clouds, there is a small opening where the sun's light comes through with just enough warmth.
So I ran into a friend today. I had spoken to her after a year last weekend, and we decided to meet tomorrow. Then today she suddenly called me and asked if I wanted to grab a coffee...I said ok.

It was simply awesome! I haven't feel so much warmth come my way in a while. On our walk back to the dorm, she started making fun of me about something. I just looked at her, and she was like, ok fine, I've missed you too. *hug* it felt sooo good. I was shocked enough not to be able to respond for a few seconds. But I hugged her back, telling her I had missed her too.

Wow...I'm all warm inside now :) I can't wait for the dinner tomorrow.

...

It's one of those morning.
I miss you very much. Hope to see you really soon.

Who thought...it's not that complicated an emotion - it's actually downright simple. You feel it, or you don't. And when you do, you have to make sure you don't let it take over you. I did that for two years of my life, and ruined it all. I'm giving myself another shot, but this time I will do it right.

Look around - hey, yeah you. I miss you a lot. I have a lot to share, but I'll wait till you get a moment.

Just words

And you think, that I don't even mean a single word I say.
It's only words, and words are all I have, to take your heart away.

Urgh

It's just one of those days...shivering nervously as the minutes go by. Wondering what the outcome of everything is.

Sometimes when you least want it, you screw up in style. All I want is one more shot, and I know I can do it. I have spent two weeks waiting in silence and correcting everything that i know is wrong about me. Now I have to stand up and I want to be able to show something for it.

One shot.

It begins today...

A lot has happened in past week
Enough said, done to make me weep
I'm trying, and I've gotta be strong

What I'm fighting for can only be won this way
Every time I lapse, I remember the face
The one sure thing that is my strength
Every time I lapse, I remember the voice
The one sure thing that gets me up

My breathing is slowly, but surely becoming regular
And I wait until I again hit the crest
Sitting at the bottom of the trough
There's only one way to go from here
Up, up and up.

Looking life in the eye...

When the going gets tough, the tough get going. This was the thought that hit him as he walked by, with the winds against him, fighting him, trying to make him stop, to go back, to command their direction onto him. Yet he stood firm. At first he did not move, then slowly he continued his journey, opposite to the forces pushing him. With time, the winds gave up. He realized as he walked into the building...it's never about reaching your goal, it's about how you got there.

Quote Book

The interesting thing about quotes is that you hear them all the time. What's also notable about the quotable is that they're pretty much common sense, things we know to be true; yet someone has to quote them, in a nice poetic style and that's what sticks.

Not a blogger

I'm personally not really a blogger; I created this account so that I could post elsewhere.

However, you never know...Someday even I may start...
