your turn

so i think i've told you about how random thoughts occur to me and then i write them down and lose them haha.

well, two thoughts have occured to me recently. i was talking to people and then it just kind of popped into my head. they came in sentences.


buuuut im not gonna tell you
but i will give you the beginnings of the sentences and then i think you can fill them in as you see fit in your own scheme of things as they pertain to you. i'd really like to know how you would fill these sentences in


ok?

ok


I've never met someone who wasn't _____________ .

(boobs is my nickname for a bunch of people in general that i care about and am close enough with to call boobs. its not referring to "boobs". its just a noise. boobs. and yes its probably referring to you and i care what you have to say. sosayit!)

the view from my bed

im going to make this much more brief than i expected because it is 2 am in the morning. =)


on saturday morning i woke up, and, the way i sleep, my feet face my closet doors, which are mirrors, which reflect the back wall of my room which have a nice window on it/in it what have you. so i wake up and lift my head and i realize that my window is really pretty. and the whole ambience of being somewhere nice and comfortable and full of light, every day, when i wake up. (my room really is full of light every morning because its in the direction the sun comes up, which is really nice. especially on weekends when i actually get to be in bed when it starts flooding my room with warm yellow light! ugh its so nice. someone should come here and enjoy it with me. except i have a twin size bed. and a knack for the single life. hahaha. ok im ramblinggg). and then i thought about how, all that is going from me in two months or less. im not exactly sad, but, shrug. im going to miss my room. and my bed, and the nice reflection of the wall on my mirror doors. and a whole lot of other stuff but as i said, its 2 am. and plus ive talked about this stuff before in my other blogs that i wrote when iw as actually awake.

so in that mood, (we're back to saturday morning), i decided to just take a bunch of pictures so i can maybe blow them up into wallpaper size posters to cover my dorm walls with. hahaha. joke.

anyway

here are a bunch (like really, a bunch) of pretty random pictures i took of my room while i was lying down in my bed. yup. these are all the view through the lcd screen from my bed.

yeah. i used the lcd screen not the eyehole thing. sorry i cant think of what its called at the moment. and for that reason a lot of my pictures probably suffer from the dreaded parallax effect. but oh well.


ok

samiah's room in the morning.

One.

i dont understand. sometimes some lyrics are so beautiful.
maybe its because they rhyme, they sound good. maybe they dont. maybe because they speak a truth. maybe they don't, maybe they just make you feel good.

maybe they remind you of a time when you didn't feel good.

sometimes its because you see what you are thinking, spelled out for you, the way you want it, maybe you don't.


sometimes they're just beautiful and quite simply thats all there is to it







and sometimes its because they're exactly what you want to say but you can't say it.







anyway.



Is it getting better,
or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you,
now you got someone to blame?
You say
one love,
one life,
when it's
one need in the night.
One love,
we get to share it
Leaves you baby
if you don't care for it.

Did I disappoint you
or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
and you want me to go without.
Well, it's too late tonight
to drag the past out into the light.
We're one,
but we're not the same.
We get to carry each other,
carry each other...
one

Have you come here for forgiveness,
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
to the lepers in your head
Did I
ask too much,
more than a lot
You gave me nothing,
now it's all I got.
We're one,
but we're not the same.
Well,
we hurt each other,
then we do it again.

You say
love is a temple,
love a higher law
Love is a temple,
love the higher law.
You ask me to enter,
but then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on to what you got,
when all you got is hurt.

One love, one blood, one life,
you got to do what you should.
One life with each other:
sisters, brothers.
One life,
but we're not the same.
We get to carry each other,
carry each other.

One

One.

but you get away with it
