WELL I HAVE BEEN ON MYSPACE SINCE 10/05....AND IT HAS BEEN QUITE AN INTERESTING RIDE. HOWEVER, WHEN I CAME HERE, IT WAS FOR THE MUSIC.....THEN IT CHANGED. IT BECAME A PLACE FOR SITES ABOUT MAKING YOUR PROFILE SOME SORT OF PIECE OF "ART,"WHORING,WEBCAM SPAM,INFINITE TWEAKS,AUTO COMMENTS,COMPETITIONS BETWEEN PERFECT STRANGERS...IT EVOLVED INTO TRUE VIRTUAL REALITY....IT HAD BE ADDICTED FOR AWHILE...I CAN'T DENY I BOUGHT INTO ALL OF IT...BUT THEN THE "UNEXPECTED ERRORS" TOOK OVER...AND THE SITE ACTUALLY BECAME A SOURCE OF FRUSTRATION AND ANXIETY...I HAD TO EMAIL EVERYONE BACK,SEND COMMENTS,READ BLOGS....BUT I COULDN'T KEEP UP WITH ALL THE NEW FEATURES...AND NEITHER COULD THE SERVER. WHAT I DID LATCH ONTO WAS BLOGGING,LEARNING ABOUT HTML,TAKING DORKY PICS AND THE OTHER SITES OUT THERE. MYSPACE'S REACTION TO OTHER SITES (LIKE YOUTUBE) HAS TRIGGERED THE MONOPOLIZATION OF THE NET....THE NEW VIDEO UPLOAD FEATURE RING A BELL? SO I AM GOING TO BE CONCENTRATING ON BLOGGING ON THE TOP 3 BLOG SITES, PLAYING WITH "YOUTUBE" AND FINDING A MORE USER FRIENDLY SITE FOR BANDS. WHERE THEY DON'T HAVE THEIR SONGS COPIED....PEOPLE PUTTING 20 COMMENTS IN A ROW ABOUT GOING TO THEIR PROFILES. IT'S 2 MUCH. SURE...VARIETY IS THE SPICE OF LIFE....BUT WHEN YOU HAVE SO MUCH TO CHOOSE FROM...THE DECISIONS BECOME DAUNTING...NOT FUN AND EXCITING. SO...I'LL CHECK BACK IN OF COURSE, BUT ME AND MYSPACE JUST AREN'T THE SAME ANYMORE....AND I NEED SOMETHING ELSE BECAUSE THIS ISN'T QUITE WORKING FOR ME ANYMORE....TO BE HONEST....I DON'T THINK IT EVER WAS. HERE'S A BIT OF INFO I'LL KEEP FOR NO REASON AT ALL: YES, I SING AND WRITE SONGS...BIG WHOOP.Please note that just because this is something that I am passionate about and love to do, it does not mean I am any good at it.....it's more of an outlet...a type of diary. Other things I love to do are "dumpster diving." Or GOODWILL HUNTING...whatever you prefer to call it. I sift through those dollar bins like a champ and always find at least one treasure. I haven't been recently as I am also INTERESTED in getting a job and it has taken up most of my freetime. Sadly, no job attained yet but it hasn't prevented me from trying. Whatever will be will be I guess. I wish I could control everything and know it all but these days...I have come to grips with the fact that I must do the footwork but that I've no decision or choice as to what happens as a result. If doing what you absolutely love and feel passionate about is deemed wrong in our world....I know one thing for sure....I DON'T WANT TO BE RighT!!! OK....one of my interests or a/effects of my selective perfectionism.....take a look at this picture . At first glance.....it brings a chuckle as we know how addictive the Internet can be but I would like to point out the errors....1. where are the seat covers. toilet paper and knozzle to flush that puppy? Umm...isn't this also extremely dangerous if you were 2 drop not a "pooop" into the "pool" but your "plugged in desktop."? At least keep up with the times....there should be a laptop here people and what about a cordless phone? And before I overanalyze this anymore ( thought it was a good opportunity to show my inability to not overthink EVERYTHING....with a toilet of all things :) but where is the handicap bar? Ok...I won't go on about it any further but I suggest if you really have to go to hold it or find a nice thick forest....watch out for the poison oak, sumac or ivey that grows in your hood. YO CHECK THIS FOOL....he has MOVES! I also love to sleep or stay up....it's a serious head trip.
A soul that is better when with me,yearns for me when I am away,yet is always connected to me via our hearts. Someone who makes me feel good about myself,that encourages me,gives me constructive criticism,that makes me laugh. And someone who can teach what "love" is. And...vice versa.....where I do them,the same. But without effort. It would be so natural from the start.....it would just feel and always be RIGHT. So, I don't expect to meet that person but at least I know what I am looking for....wonder if you are looking for me?If you’ve never visited my profile…..you will learn that I probably write too much about myself and leave myself a wee bit vulnerable, however, I also speak the truth as I know it. MUSIC IS MY LIFE. I dance (some old dance team stuff from college)... ) every night in my tiny confined space I shall call my “home†and write songs that I’ve yet to put to music because I lack the equipment and finances to be able to go into a studio. I had a cable modem and laptop but the laptop died w/ all of my music erased and I couldn't afford to replace it or pay for my connection bills. The songs I did sing are of super poor quality as I simply sang into my 'puter's internal mic which crackles like coals in a dying fire. Feel free to read my blogs to find out just about everything about me. They delve into my head…my world..my confusion. My true love always has and will be every single aspect of music( sorry..it's the Tourette's again...again..again...) and those who contribute to this art that has been my safe haven throughout my short existence on this earth. I have been through a lot in a short period of time but then again…who hasn’t? People fascinate the hell out of me and each one of us is so unique in our own right and yet I am always able to find a common thread among anyone I encounter. That’s a great starting point for building a relationship instead of letting judgement and assumptions take over. Of course it’s important to weed out the people that will make you a better person and continue to absorb their positive vibes. AND those who rub you the wrong way? What a great learning experience you just had. Like a second in time, we are forever changed by the smallest of incidents. So instead of being like me and seeing the cup half empty…..work on perspective with me and you can never fail in life. I must look at my gifts not my weaknesses and/or learn to make them just that…my strengths and the person I have always wanted to be when I grow up. P.S. My URL is not sweety....I hate being called that. That's what my renty roos call me. It stands for sweaty...like what you become when you run a marathon,wearing a dick-E, your favorite pumpkin orange polyster suit, in the humid rain forest. Yes, I sweat a lot...so that's why I put it there....I AM A SWEAT-ErRr...Gross right? I hear you....that's why my wardrobe consists 95% of black attire....of course i only have like 10 things anyways. Call me white trash...but I rarely answer the phone ;~) Speaking of clunkers.... Ewwies...dancer's feet Must be "praying" for a J O B
I guess you could say I am in a relationship....if music counts that is. We dance together, sing together, laugh and cry together....we are like peas and carrots...peas and carrots. I believe everyone who visits my profile will like at least one of the artist's I love so we then have a foundation to start chitty chatting :) BLONDIE, Thank Bob we have CD's now...I hated rewinding and fastforwarding because I could never get where I wanted. But at least we don't use 8 tracks anymore....unless your starring in the movie "Don't Be A Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood." Although, his platforms with the goldfish inside were P I M P! Oh yes...my art-teest's : I HAVE A HUGE CONNECTION TO SARAH MCLACHLIN. IT WAS HER CD " THE FREEDOM SESSIONS," THAT TOUCHED ME AT SUCH A HARD TIME IN MY LIFE. IT'S A LONG STORY BUT I OWE A GREAT DEAL TO THIS STRANGER WHO HAS NO IDEA WHAT SHE STARTED....THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHOWING ME THE POWER OF MUSIC...AND THAT IT DOESN'T MATTER WHO OR WHERE YOU ARE....IT WILL ALWAYS STAY WITH YOU IN YOUR HEART...AND CIRCULATE THROUGH YOUR HEAD.Alana Davis, Snoop, Alicia Keys,PINK, En Vogue,Steve Miller Band,Blind Melon, Da Brat,PRINCE, Missy Elliott,George Michael,Cypress Hill,Neneh Cherry, Huey Lewis,4 non-Blondes,NIN,Craig David,Lenny Kravitz,Mos Def, The Eagles,Aretha Franklin,SEAL,President's of the U.S.,Puddle of Mudd,Salt n Pepa,Roy Orbison,Counting Crows,Blaque That's not true...it's my safer alternative ;) I am such a music freak it's crazy. What do I sing besides my silly little songs?? Well, here are a FEW of the artist's that I love....there are so many but I will name a few....and I love most all genres...turntablism (only I don't have a house so I like "Room" Music...LMMFAO! is my new fave because it plays like the songs in my head...medley's of many blended into one 5 minute set.

YES....ALL THOSE VINYLS IN THE FILMLOOP W/ A TASTE OF ME, WERE ALL TAKEN BY ME. I NOT ONLY LISTEN TO THEM BUT SEE THE COVERS AT ART AS WELL AS THE SONGS THAT CAN BE SPUN ON THEM!!
A few movies....I SAT THROUGH AND ENJOYED ACE VENTURA,BROWN SUGAR,SISTER ACT 2,21 grams,FRIDAY, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, THE BIG LEBOWSKI, and the First Matrix. OK...listen up people if you see SUPERMAN wearing these kindly let him know these ARE MINE and that I said he was only allowed to borrow a TRIO of my clean THROX!
TV is not a luxury I have anymore anyways. I get a few basic channels and they are fuzzy so my boob tube is used for taking up what little space I have. I used to watch the shows that are in heavy syndication because I figured they must be decent to be on all the time. All I can think of is Sex and the City, Everybody Loves Raymond,Seinfeld,SNL re-runs,FRIENDS,Frasier,King of Queens.....but I was never glued to the TV...the appeal was that they were on daily and were only a 1/2 hour so my ADHD mind could power through them. One of the few luxuries I lost that I don't really miss much at all.
MANY...BUT WHO REALLY CARES ABOUT BOOKS THESE DAYS ANYMORE...ALTHOUGH I WOULD LIKE TO WRITE ONE. SURE IT WOULD ONLY BE READ BY ME ANYWAYS :) BUT... I LOVE BLOGS! Purrfect for someone like me who can't pay attention for a million bucks! ;)
Anyone who puts others before themselves without second guessing or asking for accolades in return. These are genuinely amazing souls that give so much....often their lives...simply because such values were engrained in them at conception....not through their upbringing and environment....they were pure before they set foot on this planet! I'm just poopy about this deletion thing....especially for this section...coulda spared this of all things....but I want to mention I SUPPORT OUR TROUPS...their family's,friend's,co-workers,anyone near and dear to them. But...the Bush Administration is a WHOLE different story that I may go into when I have time to rant about the precious lives of innocent people and sacrifices they have had to make because of those selfish and ignorant people "ruining" sorry...running our nation (into the ground)...although they dont talk about "those" fatalities much these days in the headlines...things like Paris Hilton's newest toenail polish or a piece of burnt toast that looks like "my mother in a headlock" and how much it sold for on Ebay....these seem to Top the News....where are our values? IDK!
