Your Song Music by Elton John Lyrics by Bernie Taupin

It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live

If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you

And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on

So excuse me forgetting but these things I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

Well I've been thinking ... and that can be dangerous

I've been thinking a lot lately about people ... in general. I just wonder how some people can be so self-centered and so horrible that they lose sight of everything good. There are so many good things in this world. Even though we all like to mostly complain - really we have it pretty damn good. I mean yeah - maybe a lot of things suck for me but all I really want is just want one person in this world to look out for me - you know? I mean, I know all of you do, but I don't know. I guess I just want to feel safe. Like I don't have to take care of everything. But then again is there ever safety when you have horrible people in the world? And I guess I should be glad I can take care of "business" but at the same time ... sometimes I don't want to. I just want to forget and be left alone. I guess you should just not think about those things- but I can't help it today ... it's been a rough day.

The Master of Brownies

Ok ... do you know that I have a friend that is the master of brownies. I must give him props because the brownies were so "GOOD!" He told me how he makes them and it was long a complicated with many steps that I am too lazy to write out. But he adds his special sauce "and no, not that ... Ben..." he adds chocolate syrup --- he is a god - Seriously. Too bad Amber is not here to enjoy :(

Speaking of Capes ...

So a girl was wearing a really big "frodo" like cape at chemistry today. I swear she looked like a hobbit. So being the awesome people we are, Ben and I decided that we both need a cape. Now not a "frodo" cape but more of a superhero cape. Bens will be black and white zebra stripes with the logo "Boss" on it. Mine will be bedazled and perhaps tie-dyed and the logo is still undecided. You like? Anyway the next time anyone is like "hmmm what should I get Chelsea for her birthday/christmas/EASTER...?" just remeber - CAPE! Oh and by the way. Ben would totally "do" the girl because she has a cape - no matter how hard he protests, I know the truth, I know ...

Being a slacker always pays off ... ALWAYS

Well guess what? My math teacher was sick today so no math exam until Wednesday! SWEET! now I can watch more movies and eat more brownies ... uh I mean study. Chris (the 5th roommate) is letting my try out his laptop so I can decide if I want to buy it. I am super excited to finally have a laptop. And I know that if something goes wrong with it I can ask Benny wenny or the rus man or prob even Chris since they are all so super smart and I am just a lowly "regular" nerd not an "super" nerd. I know, no cape - but whatever. But anyway, I am excited. That is all the news here - 'cept my Ben is LEAVING me :( *tear* *snif* but hopefully if everything works out they way we want it to, I will be seeing him in July ... maybe.

Diligent is my middle name

So it is time for me to be studying for my math exam because it is tomorrow and I did dreadful on the last one. I vowed to work extra hard so I could pull off at least a B in this class. So What am I doing right now? Well ... I am posting a comment about how I SHOULD be studing math, and listening to Alanis AND eating brownies. (that I made myself ... and NO i didn't burn, singe or mutilate them in anyway)(they are actually very good) SIGH I DO NOT WANT TO STUDY MATH!!!!! I WANT TO WATCH A MOVIE WITH BEN!!!! Well I am going to go now because I really do have to study and my reward will be the movie. wish me luck guys!

Hey Strangers

Sorry its been so long folks - just been "preoccupied" and sadly there is no "wink, wink," or "nudge, nudge" anywhere in that preoccupation. DAMN! Just school and work, which I am sure no one cares to hear about. BTW "I Like Trains!" how many times can you hear this phrase in a four hour period without slapping someone?? Well apparently 57 times. I love children ... really I do, but come on! Learn some other English for crying out loud. How about "Miss Chusey is beautiful" I could hear that all day long and be JUST fine. Alright well that's all for now. I love you guys!
