The Tragedy of Titus Andronicus

I think it's my favorite Shakespeare play, right next to Othello. It's a pretty good movie, too.

OMG

This baby has what I have!

It's kinda weird, but sometimes I forget about my birthmark, but then again, I don't really. Like, I know it's there, but I don't think about it too much. Only mostly when I'm in public and I catch someone looking at me or I'll be talking with someone and their eyes linger for a second or three. I have a brief moment of "What are they--OH, right." It doesn't really bother me because I know it's not everyday you see someone with a large, dark, mole on their face. I know because I haven't seen anybody in person, or in the media for that matter, with anything like what I have. That being said, I also know that there are ppl out there that do have what I have. However, a lot of ppl cover their birthmarks. I can understand why, but I don't see the point. I mean, eventually, hopefully, you're gonna meet somebody and have an intimate relationship and they're going to see you without the makeup, so why hide it? I don't think ppl should do that, it's a part of who you are and also, it adds to diversity. I'm just a big believer in not changing what doesn't need to be changed. If it isn't a health concern, leave it alone.

Sometimes I wonder how it would be if I didn't have it; it wouldn't be a big whoop, I'd look exactly like my sister. I always sorta thought maybe it is a good thing I have a birthmark, so ppl can tell us apart, but it turns out it's not much help.

It's not like life is bad with it, I just get looked at and occasionally asked about it. When I do get asked, I have the thought of acting like I don't know what they're talking about, but I always forget. When I was younger, little kids would ask me how the time, now it's gotten rare. Sometimes ppl would ask if it hurts and even rarer, if they could touch it.

I do feel a little reluctant to show ppl my pictures over the internet, though. Y'know any picture posted out there for anyone to see is subject to cruelty, but as ugly as I feel sometimes (strangely, that's unrelated to the birthmark), ppl think I'm good-looking. Or at least have the common decency not to tell me I'm a troll.

Anyway, he's an orphan and the foster home he's in has a lot of videos of the other orphans. They're cute, but it's kinda sad because some of them have defects. I know maybe their parents gave them away because they couldn't handle them financially, but it's really heartbreaking to think about. Here are some other videos:






Oh yeah, Ewan McGregor got his mole removed. I thought it was cute. :(

Tutti Frutti

Why come evry time I see a picture of black women, age is not really important, in a casual setting, they're always sticking their butts out? I don't get it. Who does this appeal to? Instead of your nice smile, would you rather be known for your big ass? Is that all you have to offer anybody? Why dehumanize yourself that way? WHAT IS REALLY GOOD?

The piano's been drinking

So, Craigalicious made a note on facebook where he wrote a poem using songs. Here are the rules: Put your MP3 player on shuffle, and write down the first line of the first 21, songs. The first line is the song title, the next 20 are the poem itself. Now, I ended up doing two because they're fun and I was thinking about posting them, then decided against it for some reason. But, Liz did it and then Synny, so I'mma break down and post mine:

A Thousand Thundering Thrills Await Me

But I’d like to get to know you
I turn my camera on
I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste

Times are hard

Some people call me the Space Cowboy
She turned away, what was she looking at?
I could have told you why

Oh, it’s been getting so hard

Metal Guru is it you, Metal Guru is it you
The 22nd of loneliness and we've
Well, she was an American girl

She grew up in an Indiana town

What you gonna do when you get out of jail?
Never was a cornflake girl
I got an ass so big like the sun

The sea it swells like a sore head

I know a thing or two about her
I am doll eyes
Who wants to buy this diamond ring?

I miss you

Now, I thought this was straight UNTIL that damn Trina fugged it up.

Here's another:

Last Year, Valentine’s Day

You let me violate you
Blank stare
I’m drunk
Why are you doing this to me?
I knew you was fuckin’ around

See me comin to town with my soul

Tell me what's wrong with you now, tell me why I
Well no one told me about her, the way she lied

I said I wanna come over
It gets so hard
Oh baby I want you, you're so fucking big
Sweet dreams are made of this
For your love

I got the rap patrol on the gat patrol
Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face?

Don’t tell me not to fly
Busty co-eds live live live

Do you remember all our love?
I walked along the avenue
Tombstone baby and I'm ready to roll

I think this one's the best. You get 20 points for identifying all of the songs. And you need those points, trust me.

The Humans Are Dead - The Flight of the Conchords

...and so is this blog. :( Hopefully that will change now that the new semester is starting. This will help in procrastination!

On Repeat #2

Tracks of my Tears - Smokey Robinson and the Miracles

Quizás, Quizás, Quizás - Sara Montiel


Bésame - Sara Montiel

Babes on YouTube

TELL 'EM WHY YOU REALLY MAD, GIRL. But really, this seems very troubling to me; I can't stand to hear little kids, or really anybody, scream like that. Maybe she just needed a nap.


SO CUTE!


I'm a twin too, and my mom said us that she would put us face to face and we would laugh too. I wonder what they're/we were laughing about. I also wonder how parents can tell their twins apart. With my sister and I, I think it was fairly obvious, but the parents just know, or at least act like they do.


There's something about that enthusiastic "Yeah!" that makes me smile.


"KICK HIS ASK!" I love how serious she is in her explanation.


"What does he have?" I like how he yells at his dad. Sometimes you have to yell at daddy so he can act right.


At least he's honest.


"You know what he did?" LOL


MY FAVORITE! too cute

On Repeat

In Dreams - Roy Orbison

Simultaneously makes me think of Robert Downey Jr. and want to watch Blue Velvet, even though I've never seen it. I'm so scared David Lynch is going to take me somewhere I can't ever escape. I guess that's what makes him so great to most people.

Amoreena - Elton John

Lately, I've been thinking how much I miss my lady #insert snide comment from Liz#

Standing in the Shadows of Love - The Four Tops

Heard in from the Love Songs mash-up. That's on repeat,too.

Leggy Blonde - Flight of the Conchords

Ridiculous and wonderful.

NOW FREAK IT OUT.

Out Damned Spot!

I took a a quiz on one of those facebook applications, What Shakespeare Character Are You?, and it said that I'm Lady Macbeth. I could see that. Her or Iago.

"you are cunning and devious, ambition rules your life and nothing will get in your way"

I wouldn't say "devious," but that's on target.

DON'T TOUCH ME

Why so mean, bb? :(
