Fear

Fear
Fear can be the clenching in your chest.
Fear can be the sudden urge to flee.
Fear can be the want to cower in a corner and disappear.
Fear can be the cause of pain.
Fear can be the stalker watching you in the night.
Fear can be the Achilles heel for you.
Fear can be the emotion under your mask.
Fear can be the nightmare that wakes you up.

Dr Horrible On the Rise

My Happy Email:)

So on Friday night I received a very wonderful email! I knew that I should be hearing from BYU sometime soon so I have been checking my email every single day in hopes that I would receive some good news. I checked my email of Friday night and there weren't any new emails. I was kinda disappointed but I knew that it would come soon anyway. About an hour later I decided to get on and check one last time for the night. I got on and I had one new email from CES Admissions and I knew that that was it. I clicked on the link that would take me to their decision and discovered that I had to type in my ID and password (Which I didn't know). So I had to call my mom and get it. After I typed in all of the information all I saw was "Congratulations!" I was so happy! I was screaming so loud!

Poem that Matters

Still I Rise


You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may trod me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I'll rise.

Does my sassiness upset you?
Why are you beset with gloom?
'Cause I walk like I've got oil wells
Pumping in my living room.

Just like moons and like suns,
With the certainty of tides,
Just like hopes springing high,
Still I'll rise.

Did you want to see me broken?
Bowed head and lowered eyes?
Shoulders falling down like teardrops.
Weakened by my soulful cries.

Does my haughtiness offend you?
Don't you take it awful hard
'Cause I laugh like I've got gold mines
Diggin' in my own back yard.

You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I'll rise.

Does my sexiness upset you?
Does it come as a surprise
That I dance like I've got diamonds
At the meeting of my thighs?

Out of the huts of history's shame
I rise
Up from a past that's rooted in pain
I rise
I'm a black ocean, leaping and wide,
Welling and swelling I bear in the tide.
Leaving behind nights of terror and fear
I rise
Into a daybreak that's wondrously clear
I rise
Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave,
I am the dream and the hope of the slave.
I rise
I rise
I rise.

Italy Hand Gestures:)

Ok, I admit, I am really wierd. In english we are doing a research project, and we have to do it on a culture that is outside of the US and I decided to to do it Italian Hand Gestures. I AM LOVING IT! I love learning all of the different things that you can do to say things without having to actually say it! You would think that since it is a research project that I would think that it was stupid and boring but I am having so much fun with you don't even know!
