i'm not really a ghost!

i really have not forgotten about this site!  i've not been writing poetry much - i have maybe one or two new ones.  i will post them, i promise!

so since i last written in here i have started college!  how exciting!  i'm a communications major (omg how surprised are you?!).  this is my first semester, and i'm taking speech communications (totally great for my panic attacks, lemme tell you internetz), intro to mass communications, college 101 (one of those mandatory classes), math 011 (apparently, i am really bad at math) and english composition 101.  i am loving english comp because it's really putting my writing skills to use.  seriously thinking of changing my major to english... but... i don't know.  maybe after i get the comm degree i'll just stay in school and get an english degree.  :)

remember the winter poem i posted?  i entered it and another poem into a contest.  didn't win, but at least i did it.  the other poem i entered is the following - it's a new one.

you

you have broken my heart
but i am glad
because it took you
hurting me one more time
for me to see
that you are not perfect
like i thought
i have finally
taken you off your pedestal
i am totally and finally
moving on with my life
growing up
and i won't cry
but i will miss you
and i love you
always have and always will
and when you grow up
i'll be here.

alright, i will hopefully not take another decade to update this again.  :)

no, this is what happens when you start a new diet. 
and when you need a new fridge.

life is music and music is life

it's amazing how a song can speak to you in a certain way.
it's amazing how many songs speak to me.
i made a mix for a friend - the theme is "songs that move me." 
i picked out 58 songs.  and that's not even half of what i wanted.
i started making a list the other day in my notebook... and i don't even think half those songs are the songs i picked out.  i know a couple are.  but still.
music is my life and life is music.
no wonder i surround myself with musicians.
-----

a little something that i can't seem to finish:

i wish you'd trust me
 like i trust you
i wish you'd give me that hope
 that i can't seem to live without
i want to be more
 than a shadow in your life
i want to be your sun
 your inspiration
 the one you run to
 the one you need

random life update

this has nothing to do with my writing.

my brother jason will be deployed on august 8 and will be overseas for 6 months.  he'll be outside baghdad.
i am experiencing many emotions about this.  i'm trying to deal with it, but let me tell you internets how lucky i am to have some amazing friends who actually make me feel better about this situation.

this has something to do with my writing:

i went to work on my novella (luck smiled on me: diary of a layne) and... word won't open it up!  it won't open any of my word files!!  zomgwtfbbq?!!?!  so i asked a computer guru here at work and i'm going to try what he said when i get home... and if that doesn't work... i'll have to figure something else out.
