Love vs. Attention- a Remix

sorry i've been away...school is killing me .

but this has affected me so much that i had to share...
God sends His answer to your prayers and concerns in the funniest ways sometimes...He had to tell me about myself right here....

and He found the correct medium through which to do it.
funny how changing one word can change the song and it's affect.

Love vs. Attention
a remix of The Dream's Love vs. Money
by Rashad Campbell



he took my shawty
he took my girl
he took the any and everything out my world
he took my heart from me
he took my soul
i should've known money couldn't match [attention].
........
you cant say that i really just [ignored ya]
[over every break,you embraced me whenever i asked if i could touch ya]
quit acting like im the only one to blame
honey.
didnt hear you scream
"Love"
when you were trippin off my [company]
and now im left here, to clean up your dirty laundry.

so kiss that niqqa.
hug that niqqa.
[attention] that niqqa to death.

in time you'll see the problem's yourself.

cuz when [attention's] your problem.
nothing can solve it.

cuz when [attention's] your problem.
[Love] can't solve it

[to her attention's a must]
so
she stays on the run.
you give her Love
she want's Attention
you give her Attention
she's back at Love

Melanie Fiona

im feeling her!

Singer/songwriter Melanie Fiona’s debut album The Bridge reveals a sweet push-and-pull between countless elements of herself. At once Canadian and Caribbean, strong and sexy, contemplative and joyous, blending the sounds of pop and soul. Despite the many moods and musings of Melanie Fiona’s debut, there is one defining element. The girl’s got soul. "The album is called The Bridge," enthuses Fiona. "It crosses the barriers between ethnicities, genres, age groups, and genders. It can’t be defined as just one thing. It’s got a soul that’s something old, yet something new." The album reflects the duality that asserts itself in Melanie Fiona’s own exuberant personality.

TRANSFORMERMANIA!!!!!!!!!



OH. MY. GOD.

i know im late but AHHH!!
sooooo excited. this will help me get through the semester.
AHHHH!!!

Pride & Prejudice

one of the few LitHum books that i LOVE!!

Pride & Prejudice
by Jane Austen


so instead of reading 184 pages last night, i watched the movie and read (up to page 36) at the same time. i LOVE the movie, and love this book.

it's set in the British countryside in the 1800s, and is centered around the Bennet family, and the marital woes of their 5 daughters. Elizabeth (the 2nd to eldest daughter) is the protagonist, and she is an opinionated, confident and intelligent young woman. She refuses to not speak her mind out of respect for someone's feelings or class, so her interactions with the upperclassmen (who think she is plain and inferior) are incredibly funny and bold. When two immensely wealthy (and, single!) young gentleman, Mr. Bingly and Mr. Darcy, come to town, the Bennet family is intent on having their daughters marry one of these men. At a ball, a Mr. Bingly is smitten with the eldest Bennet daughter, Jane, who is the most beautiful girl in the town. Elizabeth tries to approach Mr. Darcy,but he is a cold, arrogant man, and due to his superiority complex, he is quite short with Elizabeth and other party goers. He even insults Elizabeth while speaking to Mr. Bingly.
This party is the start of their apparently hateful relationship, but something more develops as the story goes on. As Mr. Darcy spends more time with Elizabeth, due to Jane and Mr. Bingly's growing love, a new side of Mr. Darcy comes out. This strong, proud and beautiful side is revealed as he falls for the spirited Elizabeth, and she for him.

it's quite a love story!!!
you should definitely check it out, especially the movie, because the movie is beautifully done and well acted. It does not stray far from the book at all.

it's the risk that i'm taking
i ain't never gonna shut you out.
i swore i'd never fall again
but this don't even feel like falling.
gravity can't begin
to pull me back to the ground again.

baby i can feel your halo.
pray it won't fade away.


Halo - Beyonce

"Free yourself of the responsibility of trying to make other people happy. Respect and love them enough to allow them to take care of their own happiness."

word.


when you love someone...
you just don't treat them bad
oh how i feel so sad
now that i wanna leave
how could i let this be?
i just need time to see
where i wanna be

the love that we share is real...
but in time your heart will heal
i'm not saying i'm gone
but i....
have to find what life is like
without you

i don't mean to hurt you baby
-donnell jones


i hate that i hurt you.
please
tell me how to right this
please
let me comfort you
because i can't handle this stage.
i can't and i knew i never could.
please.


nEw mUsiC

so im feeling this track...it goes with my attitude right now of not giving a f@#!...summertime fly...

but one question about ciara- does anyone else feel like we've heard all of her stuff before? idk, i feel like there's no artist progression, no development, and it seems like she's incapable of having any other sound but that like airy, im-talking-no-im-not, lighter but still nice voice. i just want to see something different from her, because i feel like she could be bigger than she is...just waiting for it...


Kiss My Swag - Ciara


and just saw weezy's new mixtape, so i.ll listen to that and get back to you...but i loveee this beat, the lyrics are whatev but i would jam with the instrumental alone...


Does What She Does - Lil Wayne & Juelz Santana

My Next Buy...or one of them...

so I'm on this whole "The Secret" tip, even though I haven't even read the book...but I'm buying it tomorrow.

so anywho...they were talking about money, and said:

word.

so- next buy:

even though the summer's hot as f*@!
Ima find a way to rock these.

The Secret: Relationships

Relationships

Every single relationship you have is a reflection of how you feel inside about you. You are a magnet attracting to you all things, via the signal you are emitting through your thoughts and feelings. Every relationship you have and every interaction with every person, is a reflection of your own thoughts and feelings in that very moment.


To Transform Every Single Relationship in Your Life

Fall in love with YOU!

Make lists of hundreds and hundreds of wonderful things about you. Keep adding to it every day.

Know that you are perfect. Do not think any negative thoughts about you.

Know that you are worthy and deserving of anything and everything you could possibly want in your life.

Focus on the wonderful things in every person. Look for only those things.

Do not blame or criticize anybody, ever.

Set an intention that you are going to see the best in everything and everyone.

Make your happiness the number one thing in your life. Happiness is an inside job.

Free yourself of the responsibility of trying to make other people happy. Respect and love them enough to allow them to take care of their own happiness.

Get your attention off those things in others that don't make you feel good.

Appreciate and love yourself in every moment you can.

Do not expect others to behave in a way you want, so you will be happy. Release yourself forevermore and know that you alone control your happiness and it is a choice, no matter what anyone else is doing.

Love and respect yourself completely.

Know that you are perfect right now.

Being inebriated to the point of not remembering things that you said and did is all well-and-dandy...
when you're a quiet inebriated perso
n.
and when you like things like that.


but being that I am not quiet when I am drunk and I am rather reserved, the stories that I have been hearing have been extremelyy embarrassing. A few of them, so you may know what others had to deal with (since everyone here at school bore witness)

-falling 4- yes, FOUR- times. once was in the street.
-shouting my personal business around the entire party
-jetting across Broadway and thus almost being hit by three lanes of traffic that had just received the green light.

how i felt about my condition:
lol

and then, I got an attitude with the one person that, throughout the whole night, stayed with me to make sure I didn't kill myself, tried to reason with me when I was being unreasonable, and was incredibly patient with me. More patient that I could have been with myself.

Him.

That's all that will be revealed about him, for now. But a song, that makes me smile everytime I hear it, because I think of him. And our crazy night of him protecting me from the ground and holding me close that night.
