Memorabilia Phobia

What can I do when you're all that I need
But never what I want
Where can I go that your pictures won't haunt me
Am I all that you can handle?

It just isn't right
That I can't take your kindness
Your touch
Your love
Knowing I'm not what you need
You are my biggest fear

What can I do when you're all that I need
But never what I want
Where can I go that your pictures won't haunt me
Am I all that you can handle?

I can't control
All these things I feel
Load me up with the drugs
Baby give me a pill
I can't seem to find
That thing I want
That thing I need
You are my biggest fear

What can I do when you're all that I need
But never what I want
Where can I go that your pictures won't haunt me
Am I all that you can handle?
I can't handle...

SWINE!

Every step I take is one more toward you
And every breath I've held for you
How I wait to call you mine.
But, oh I've been infected
Yeah I've got the swine
And so here I'm left without you
Because as the rest
You're scared to be near me too.
Baby I really shouldn't blame you
And I don't feel to put out
But it's about making sacrifices
And showing what you're made of.
Being with the girl you love.
Even though you're a little scared
Of catching my disease.
They say it's not contagious
But if you had too
They'd showcase us
On the channel 3 news.

Also; I love Sierra Green :)

I Read About You On The Internet

Will you think of me
When the world steps back
And the big picture comes into your sights
Will you remember me
When you find another fight
And see the character you lack
I can feel you on my skin
I can smell you on my sheets
Do you hear me?
Do you hear me?

I will whisper your name
And follow you through the broken gates
Will you still know me then?
Remind me of all these things you hate

Can you hear me when
I whisper mysteries
And sing you sold out lyrics

Do you hear me?

GLEE!

I love absolutely everything about the show glee. It's just so... Agh, would it be cliche to say it's just so... Gleeful? ha. Watching it now with my best friend, the fourth episode ever, and the third one we've watched together. It's a great show, so many different conflicts going on at the same time! The fact that it all revolves around a Glee Club/team of inexplicably aloof high schoolers. Fortunately, the elite cast members gladly (pun?) donate their talents to the pricelessly choreographed scenes and plots.
So check out glee, channel 8, from 9 pm to 10.

Dream Followe.

Following my dreams, or even running to catch up to them, is probably thee hardest thing I've ever done; will ever have to do. It seems to be requiring far more stamina than I have, but I'm working on it, every day. I should already be at University somewhere, anywhere but here... Maybe that's what my parents were expecting though, for me to go to Delta or MJC like my brother. Not that either of those schools is a bad thing, I've heard amazing things about both. They just aren't for me.. The Valley just isn't for me. There aren't even any doubts to that anymore. I seem to love everywhere but here... I'm over this place. Been here too long, doing the same things, and I've come farther than this place will let me stay.

My biggest dream is Pratt Institute in New York City.
Tuition= $50,000
Breakdown:
Tuition: $33,500.00
Fees: $1,770.00
Room: $6,156.00
Board: $3,600.00
Books/Supplies: $3,000.00
Personal: $1,000.00

Me= not having a job yet.
what an adventure this will be.

I Saved Logan: ashleyoverride's newest favorite.

Oh the music scene. A constant up-and-coming trend. Every teenager wants to have their own band, be in a band, manage a band... So what's it all about? Where is the joy and absolute thrill in screaming your lungs out for a group of awkward teenagers in bright, gruesome local band t shirts and too tight jeans or basketball shorts? For the central valley's latest team players I Saved Logan, it's a Freddie Mercury feel: the love of the music, and seeing the kids jump. Influenced by bands as A Day To Remember and Underoath the four man group do what they love and live what they do. Just sitting here in the sweaty, raunchy 10x10 garage bedroom they lovingly call their practice space,I can feel the magic happening. Frontman Taylor Cantrell, 18, is anything but an amateur with six years experience. If Eric Clapton was in with the hardcore music scene of today, his "Slow Hand" prodigy spot would've been filled by the teen easily. His progressions are nearly unnoticeable, fingers moving rapidly and easily across the mehogany fret board. Guitarist Timmey Ellefson,16 and a two year player, glides in smoothly alongside Cantrell. The two feed off of each other even during rehearsal, throwing out ideas that roar from the half stack amps. Drummer Jon Treece, a three year percussionist at age 16, rhythmically leads the group with reinvented beats and his own flare of mix and match sound. Powerful bassist Jacob Denning, leader of the pack at 19, comes through strong keeping his sound up and assisting Treece in rhythm carry. They team up for a fantastically sturdy bottom of the sound pyramid. I Saved Logan is currently-and constantly-recording and looking for new material for their set list. The last half hour of their rehearsals are spent freestyling, each member bringing his own plate to the table.
It's incredible to watch the brotherhood create, phenomenal to hear the completed works. Their first show is November 22, a local Battle of the Bands at Slim's bar in San Francisco. Listening to them is sure to make your heart thump with melodical joy.
