Irene wrote: "@Kishore: Oh, I actually have heard it before but I didn't realize KISS did it nor that was the name of that song. I actually pefer some of KISS's other stuff."This was the first song of KISS that I heard so I have a bit of a sentimentality toward it :)
Irene wrote: "Oh, sorry I hope I didn't offend you."Don't worry :) We all have our own likes and dislikes no need to be sorry.
and I also have really thick skin ;)

He's a chihuahua :)
I listen to music - mostly European metal and folk, but there isn't a genre I entirely hate, always at least one artist who is the exception - and I cook - particularly if I can get a frying pan involved.

My cousin had a chihuahua when I was much younger and it scared me to death!

This is called Naive;
Verse:
Where were you when I needed you most?
Now I’m stuck here waiting just a guest in my own home
Yeah you dumped me in the cold now there’s nothing left to say
Guess I shouldn’t have placed my trust in you in the first place
Chorus:
Now you’re running back to me, trying to make me see that you had to leave
You should have thought of that before you did what you did to me
You know I never would’ve thought that you’d ever be so mean
I guess that’s what I get for being so damn naive.
Verse:
How can you just expect me to come back?
You should know I’d never even think twice
Cos you’ve changed me and now I am strong
I won’t be won by a “hey babe long time no see”
Chorus:
Now you’re running back to me, trying to make me see that you had to leave
You should have thought of that before you did what you did to me
You know I never would’ve thought that you’d ever be so mean
I guess that’s what I get for being so damn naive.
Bridge:
We could’ve been so great; at least that was the plan
I fell hard for you and introduced you to my friends
Oh no
Now you’re standing here what can I say?
To make you turn around and walk away
Oh
(I’m Naive) (So naive)
Verse:
Where were you when I needed you most?
Now I’m stuck here waiting just a guest in my own home
Yeah you dumped me in the cold now there’s nothing left to say
Guess I shouldn’t have placed my trust in you in the first place
Chorus:
Now you’re running back to me, trying to make me see that you had to leave
You should have thought of that before you did what you did to me
You know I never would’ve thought that you’d ever be so mean
I guess that’s what I get for being so damn naive
So damn naive
(I’m naive) (It’s my weakness) (Naive oh)
I’m damn naive
and this one is SilencedVerse:
I can’t be seen until I’ve seen the world
And I can’t be heard if I don’t say a word
And I know Silence is not always golden
But sometimes it’s just so hard to speak
I gotta keep on moving
Until I find that place
Where I’ll
Be set
For life
Chorus:
Where is my voice?
I can’t seem to find it
If I had the choice
I’d speak out against the world
If you could just see
How good I have to be
But no cos I have been
Silenced
Verse:
I used to have such faith
In those that I trusted
But now I see
I only saw... what I wanted to
And nothing else
I gotta keep on searching
Until I find that place
Where I
Can speak
My mind
Chorus:
Where is my voice?
I can’t seem to find it
If I had the choice
I’d speak out against the world
If you could just see
How good I have to be
But no cos I have been
Silenced
Bridge:
Is everybody deaf?
No one can hear me cry
I’m so misunderstood
And I will be
Until the end of time
Chorus:
I can’t be seen until I’ve seen the world
And I can’t be heard if I don’t say a word
And I know silence is not always golden
But sometimes it’s just so hard to speak
(Almost whisper)
Where is my voice?
I can’t seem to find it
If I had the choice
I’d speak out against the world
If you could just see
How good I have to be
But no cos I have been...
Where is my voice?
I can’t seem to find it
If I had the choice
I’d speak out against the world
If you could just see yeah
How good I have to be
But no cos I have been
Silenced
Silenced
(Sung softly)
I gotta keep on searching
Until I find that place
Where I
Can speak
My mind
Nice :) I like the second one.... I could relate more to it.

you might get along with my BFF then:) she is a choir fanatic ..."
Oh cool! Yeah I just realized I liked singing a couple of years ago too. Choir rocks. :)

H
Yeah I used to be scared of them too, until I had one. :) he's not very ferocious though. If someone broke into our house he would probably just lick them to death. :)
That is pretty cute and yes how old is he?

Being licked to death is one of the ancient Chinese tortures! XD
Haha, well good then. He is protecting us. :)
W~ell, there are a couple of things that soothe me when I'm not writing. The primary thing would be reading a book in the stillness and quietness of the house that I live in. The secondary thing would be laying down and taking a nap, mostly for some extra energy.Of course, there are those times when playing some video games will relax me, but I don't play as many games as I used to, so that method is slowly becoming obsolete for me.
Ingrid wrote: "i don't play video games. i have an xbox 360 i earned fo rchristmas but haven't touched in over 2 months:("Is that so? I haven't been playing mine very often. I've been so engrossed in writing and walking that I just don't have time to drag my laptop upstairs and play with my friends. :/
Ingrid wrote: "me too"I dunno. Maybe when it's snowing outside this winter and I feel too lethargic to do anything else, I'll play the 360 again. Otherwise, it's going to accumulate some dust specs during the snowstorms.
Are you sure it isn't? d:Yeah, it was turning into a sauna up in my room. It's so much cooler down here.. ~w~
You must be in one of the southern states. I just moved from there three months and two weeks ago. I'm glad that I'm not in the drought down there.
Oh. Seems like the heat is moving upward this summer.Yes, indeed. It gets upto a hundred and ten degrees as a maximum during the summers down there.
Ingrid wrote: "110!!!! i think if it was that hot for me, i would literally sleep in a freezer...whatever! or move to antarctica with the penguins. trust me, the onl seasons i look forward to when i am going to s..."I'm not even kidding. I practically lived in the shower during the summers.
Those are my favorite seasons. Fall's nice because all of the leaves disappear from the trees and the temperature takes a steady decline, while spring is great with seeing all of the leaves grow back and the flower buds blossom.
i like spring because it rains, its not so hot, and my brothday is in that season ^^
birthday* i suck at spelling XD
yep ^^ my b-day is in the spring ^^
Me too, I live in Northern Georgia and we just pulled out of a drought, not as bad as last years though, we nearly lost some of our lakes.
The good thing is though that we got enough rain to bring the lakes back, it got really bad there for a while.
Yeah, alot of our counties would be without water and that would be really bad.
Well you just try to conserve as much water as possible, most counties issue tempory laws about water.
Yes, and then the city buys water from neighboring cities.
I have no clue never seen it go beyond that and hope that it never will.
Ingrid wrote: "me either. i hope not:("We have water conserving measures in force here in France too! My daughter is sulking because we can't fill the pool this year. Though some people have already done so, all water is metered here and I hope they are penalised for doing so.
going outside and taking a deep breath really helps calm me down because it's never a busy street so there's no noise to distract me. and yeah, if i need music to pump me up then i always always listen to eminem =]
Video editing (when I'm editing with relaxing, ballad-like songs) to a game/show/movie that I love always helps cool me down. It's also the perfect way to vent when I'm feeling unhappy about something.Doing something in Photoshop; creating a wallpaper or graphic for a pairing I love is very serene. <3
Singing/learning music on the piano. Music in general makes me feel at ease, even if the song can turn my stomach to knots with its beauty.
This does the exact opposite from relax me, but I always love to play Ico. It tenses me up and I can't play it after sunset, but I love it nonetheless. <3
you don't like Kiss! I liked one song of theirs and it was called rock and roll"
how about detroit rock city? That song makes me want to go to detroit!!!!!
