Give Me Something to Believe In

The day someone fights for it, is the day I'll let my guard down and make sacrifices. Until then I'll polish my silver, dust off my record collection, and run the streets with my hair down and an open mind to the ones I've written off in the past.

Always Fighting

"..but Henry preferred somebody who screamed when they burned."

- Hot Water Music, by Charles Bukowski

I Cradle the Crow, Always Shoot Off the Dove

I've always envied birds. Always free, the ugly ones, that is. Rarely do you see a beautiful macaw flying free. I prefer to not have my wings clipped, ever. That's my next tattoo; blackbirds.

Only You

There's no one here that interests me like you do, and I can't help but wonder if it's because I'm taken, or if I just won't give anyone else a chance to.

Am I taken?

Back in Action

Hey kids! After 2 months of hell in boot camp and 1 month of getting situated at my first duty station at United States Coast Guard Sector Jacksonville, it's been a long haul. The few people that actually read this might not have even noticed I was gone haha, but I'm back, with a better understanding of everything good and bad in the world. But don't worry, contrary to popular belief of peoples' views in the military, I am still the naively rebellious girl I was raised- into punk rock, street fashion and fart jokes. I'm feelin' the poppier new vintage side of music today, plus the drummer's hot.

I'll be seein you

I won't have a voice for the next 8 weeks...untill then!

Never slow down, and no matter what, always FIGHT.

Every goodbye makes the next hello closer.

Slaughterhouse Five

"The most important thing I learned on Tralfamadore was that when a person dies he only appears to die. He is still very much alive in the past, so it is very silly for people to cry at his funeral. All moments, past, present, and future, always have existed, always will exist. The Tralfamadorians can look at all different moments just the way we can look at a stretch of the rocky mountains, for instance. They can see how permanent all the moments are, and they can look at any moment that interests them. It is just an illusion we have here on earth that one moment follows another one, like beads on a string, and that once a moment is gone it is gone forever. When the Tralfamadorian sees a corpse, all he thinks is that the dead person is in bad condition in that particular moment, but that same person is just fine in plenty of other moments. Now, when I myself hear that somebody is dead, I simply shrug and say what the Tralfamadorians say about dead people, which is "So it goes."

"That is a very Earthling question to ask...Why you? Why us for that matter? Why anything? Because this moment simply is. Have you ever seen bugs trapped in amber?.....Well, here we are...trapped in the amber of this moment. There is no why."
