Cry because of a song every single time?

Friday February 12, 2010 at 3:47 PM

Did you ever cry because of a song.Of course you get touched and stuff but I have to cry really every single time when I hear Ruby's Arms from Tom Waits.I can remember exactly when I heard it the first time, I was in the car of my dad and driving god knows where and then I just started crying ,not the heavy sobs just you know tear by tear,the kind of crying you just recognize when someone tolds you or you touch your face,like it has touched your heart so fast that your mind couldn't follow...and he was just like: "Crap!Did I say something or what should I do...call your mum?!...Well he kind of freaked out. He really cannot handle situations like that..at that time I didn't know about Twilight but now I have to say that it reminds me of Charlie :)

and know you might be thinking she heard the song so many times and she has to be used to it but..noooo the same reaction every time...

am I crazy?Imean I know I am weird maybe :)

so tell me about your experiences with the songs which made you burst out into tears?a special story to them?

My Free-For-All Rant

Friday February 12, 2010 at 3:28 PM

My Free-For-All Friday is not a happy one.

I am all emotional and in pain from well, you know, and I am imming with my twife who thinks she's channeling me and wants to die to. (pun intended). Except I'm channeling her pain because she's on the East end of the country and I am in the West.

I love the Winter Olympics.  Always has been my favorite. I was looking forward to the Opening Ceremonies tonight, and just got this in my box.

I have seen the photos (which I will not post out of respect for the family, etc.)

So My thoughts are with the family and all of the athletes.

 Do any of you watch the Olympics? Do think  that the scientific and technological advances in equipment and track design have helped or hindered sports in general?

So Kake and I really want Joe and Jess to make us feel better.

A 9.875 on the Random-Meter...

Friday February 12, 2010 at 3:26 PM

Jamiaica or Costa Rica?

I'm spending part of my summer volunteering (and before you attempt to heap false praise on my head, I only volunteer in coastal regions with tropical temps. that allow scuba diving, beach time, and lots of rum on the weekends)  and I've narrowed it down to slightly outside of Kingston Jamaica, or Liberia, Costa Rica.

So what I wanna know is:  have you been to either?  What are the urban areas like?  How difficult is the language barrier if I speak neither Patois or Spanish well?  How hard is it to deal with the currency?  Are the people friendly?  How about the food?  The water?  Public transportation?  

What's there to do for fun?

I'm a frequent traveller, but up until now I haven't made it to Central America or The Carribean, so I'm why opened to suggestions!   And if you haven't been to either, tell my why you would pick one over the other in theory!

Calm me down...

Friday February 12, 2010 at 2:47 PM

 Okay, so I'm writing this one-shot.

It's for the ADF's Happy Valentine's Day Emmett Challenge. (Contest? idkidk) Anyhow, somehow through writing it, it became Bella/Emmett.

Now, I know Emibella might like it (I mean, come on. XP Most of us have read her story - or you should.), but I'm worried about other people liking it. Why? idk. I've gone pass non-canon before...

Wayy pass. Roseward, Alice/Heidi, Edward/Tanya (in a drabble), and I might be doing a Jessica/Edward fic. XP Haha, so I'm not worried too much about that. XP

I don't know. Have you ever got worried about sumbitting a fic thinking no one will like it because of the pairing? Calm me down or something, I need to write. XP

And............discuss.

:)

Edit : For real, I'm freaking out and idk why.

Coincidence

Friday February 12, 2010 at 1:34 PM

 I was looking up the Paris theatre in Manhattan where the Remember Me premiere will be and was looking at google maps, street view and was caught off guard by what movie was playing at the theatre in the photo... the one and only little ashes,  just thought I’d share (don't know if this pic or link will work), but it was a weird coincidence!

i don't know how to get the picture but the look up the paris theatre, new york, on google maps, if you look at the street view you'll see it

HSM GUISE!!

Friday February 12, 2010 at 12:17 PM

Nah just messing with ya guys

Anyway so yeah I love Skins. I love Skins sfm. Just the fact that they're all messed up and in college has me entertained all the way.

While I was watching it last night for some reason I came up with a crossover where Edward is all falling for the hoebag that is Effy. Yeah I get rid of it as soon as it came to my head. I always have shitty stories like that.

What's your favourite Twilight High school/College fics where everyone is messed up and just complete fail but done good.

I dibs Scotch, Gin and the New Girl. I love that story as much as I love JJ and that is major big love.

And ya know cause she's a hoebag and still kinda cool....

Your non-Twi obsessions

Friday February 12, 2010 at 12:14 PM

Yeah, yeah. We all love Twilight, or fanfic, or at least Rob, but what other obsessions might we share?

I LOVE me some David Tennant (and by association, Doctor Who), Matt Bellamy's vocal folds (yes, they are NOT cords- trust me, I'm a voice teacher), The Hunger Games, Graham Norton, and Glee.

What about you? (Picks are for my enjoyment, but feel free to enjoy as well.)

Valentine's Day!! (not the movie)

Friday February 12, 2010 at 11:56 AM

So me and my hubs have been together for 8 years!!! YES 8 years! And Valentine's day is our anniversary.  He asked me to be his girlfriend on Valentine's day up at Mt Washington overlooking Pittsburgh by giving me 13 roses with a card that said " I will stop loving you when the last petal of the last rose falls" (the 13th was silk) also he gave me NSYNC tickets with a note that said "Will you be my girlfriend I'll be your shining star" (the lyrics to Girlfriend) Obviously I said YES!!!!  Now 8 years, one dog, a house and a CUTE 6 year old son later and he still loves me!!!! 

So tell me who you love and what they did to melt your heart!! 

The reason for this post is cause I just got a dozen roses, teddy bear, bath salts and chocolates delivered to my work, and it has now made this a GREAT day!!

More on (moron?) "Breaking Dawn" in two parts

Friday February 12, 2010 at 11:34 AM

 

You got yer Breaking, and you got yer Dawn...

Nikki Finke is usually very reliable.

For a good laugh, read the comments.  My favorite:  "I'm embarrassed for humanity."

(P.S. - I liked the book, and I will see the movie(s) no matter how many there are, or how horrible.)

Sweet Valley Forever!

Friday February 12, 2010 at 11:11 AM

 So I found this article on EW.com yesterday. 

St. Martins to publish first adult 'Sweet Valley High' novel

Great news for grown-up fans of  Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield: Today, St. Martin’s Press officially confirmed that they will publish Sweet Valley Confidential, the first hardcover adultSweet Valley High novel. The novel — which “follows the cast of characters into adulthood,” according to St. Martin’s press release — will be written by the writer who created the franchise in the early 1980s, Francine Pascal.

“I’ve had thousands of queries from fans over the years wondering what Jessica and Elizabeth would be like as adults,” Pascal says in the release. “Well, Sweet Valley Confidential should give them all the answers. And I can guarantee they will be very surprised. Actually, more like shocked.”

I am really excited about this. I loved these books when I was younger. I read them all; the twins, high school and college ones. 

Did anyone else read these? Anyone but me excited??? I think they are supposed to be out sometime early next year.
