How come I can't light up a cigarette in public, without having someone come up to me and say "got an extra smoke?" Do people buy their own cigarettes any more? It's pretty easy to do, you know. Just go into any convenience store, and ask for your brand, and give them money. That way you'll be showing responsibility for yourself, and you won't need to bother me any more.
Single guys out there? What happens when a pretty woman comes up to you and asks you for a smoke and bats her eyes at you? You lose all control of yourself, and dig into your packs to give her anything she wants. And when she gets your cigarette, she walks away with her boyfriend leaving you alone, and with 1 less cigarette in your pack, and you wonder what just happened to you. Want to have a good laugh? The next time a pretty lady asks you for a smoke, show some backbone, and say NO. It's well worth it to see her reaction.

When you are on an elevator, and another person gets on, why do they feel they have to say hello to you? Now if they say hello when they get on the elevator, you know they're gonna say goodbye when they get off at their floor. So you have to respond to them once again. That's 2 words you've wasted on someone who you're never going to see again in your life. So do me a favour. If you get on an elevator, and you see me standing there, just be quiet, and let me enjoy the ride.

I was reading something last evening in which someone had made the comment "Carpe Diem". Personally, I'm not a morning person. I don't wake up 'til sometime around noon, regardless of whether or not my body is up and and moving before then. It doesn't matter how early i go to bed the night before, or how many hours of sleep I get. I am a nocturnal being. Always have been, always will be. Sure, I go through the motions, because I don't have much of a choice. If I could have my way, however, mornings wouldn't start until 2pm, "noon" would be somewhere between 7-9 pm, and midnight would be around 5am. Most everything I enjoy doing, I prefer doing AFTER the sun has gone down.

When I was young, I made my parents crazy when my laughter over some 3am tv show woke them up, knowing I had to be at school a few hours later. Now that I'm older, I hate mornings even more, and wish I could have an caffeinated IV drip that would start working about an hour before time for me to get up. (Especially beneficial on those horrid days when I have early classes and they begin with algebra, calculus, etc....)

Oh wait!.... I had to drop college algebra... due to the fact that my brain simply can't wrap itself around quadratic expressions at 8 o'clock in the morning.

And as for the IV drip... I have to have a cup of coffee before I go to BED.... so how the hell would THAT make a difference?

I'm still a horrible insomniac. My brain never shuts off, no matter how physically tired I am. Maybe that's why I'm a CIT major.... always processing.... but who knows....

Any how....

For those of you who prefer Starlight to sunlight, who would rather look up at a Sea of Black Velvet covered in Diamonds instead of blue "nothing" and cotton balls.... I say too you:
CARPE NOCTEM!!

First let me say Hi to all and thanks for taking the time to read this.

Here is my problem I am going to become a Grandmother in July I myself am tickled to death about this but the biggest part of my family is having a hard time accepting the fact that my son's girlfriend is bi-racial. To me it isn't a problem but my family members are not willing to accept her and if they can't accept her can they really acept the baby? I know that there is always going to be people out there that are against this but let me ask this, when a child is born and is both black and white what race should they lean toward? Is it so awful that my family wont accept her? I know that times have changed but why is it that most people refuse to do the same? This really has me torn. This is the greatest time of my life and I can't really share it with my loved ones. If any of you guys have been thru it then please let me know how to deal with my family. Any and all advice will be greatly appericated!

I joined this site hoping to find someone. I know I'm only 18, but I've been single for basically my whole life. I've had one BF and I'd like that to change. I need someone to talk to, someone who'll talk to me, listen, be there for me. That's why I'm here. Yeah. I'm sure no one is reading this. If you are, I'd love to know.

I got to enjoy the sun a little today, which is not very common for me considering that I have been working the night shift for the last couple of weeks. Went to the movies to see Premonition with my mother. She wanted to do the girlie thing Movie and shopping, she knows I hate to shop but insisted I go. Ended up enjoying the time with her even though she made me try on a million different outfits. I am the only girl and she loves to dress me up still at 31 years of age. The good part of that is I never lack for a wide range variety of clothes and shoes. The bad part is she makes a habit of buying me things every weekend just about. So the movie was better then what I first thought. My son comes back this afternoon from staying with his dad for the weekend. Can't believe how fast it flew by. So til later. Ciao.

what's to really stopping all these science fiction films becoming reality ? did anybody ever see the matrix ? planets of the apes ? close encounters of the third kind ? total recall ? the terminater ? etc, if we've got the brains to think of all these films ...what's to stop them ever becoming reality ? ? ? ? ...i mean just say that they came up with a way to implant your soul into a microchip ..freeze your body for a while, whilst you go on a fantastic trip around the universe via satelite through your telephone line via your computer in your living room ???and then it all went wrong and you could'nt come back again???...now there's a movie!

Alithinos Agapo’s tragoudi

Do esy agapo mou mazi oloi sas kardia
I anagki na xero sas alithinos
Na xero I am ikanos na krato esy gia panta perissotero
Bousili esy afino charalos oloi sas amfiballo
Na afino mas agapo xekourdizo omoios a mpala ek spagkos

Lego mou dikos mou agapo
Arthra mythos ek pos emeis erchomai na eimai
It imoun etsi makrys prin, I mporo molis oti mera
Etsi megalos it’s axia
Bazo pano arthra idryma gia etsi polloi charitobrytos meras

I do anakola oti esy blepe be etsi oraios
Kai oti tropos esy blepo mesa dikos mou matis
Arthra tropos sas mallia pagida arthra pipto epochi anemos
Agkaliazo arthra kalokairi ilios sfichtos
I afxeno pelorios mazi chara


Krato mou kai lego mou peripou pos esy aisthanomai
Peripou ti it mesos na eimai mas
Arthra seiras oti ichnos emas istoria
Oti kamno pano arthra ousia ek esy kai mou
Arthra agapo emeis metochi


Psithyrizo mesa dikos mou afti
Arthra glasso I potho na akouo

Dikos mou agapo is makria episis dynotos
Trabo mou kato omoios a barys sidiros mpala
Etsi bazo apo dikos mou plevra
Kai psevdomia glykys legos analithis na mou gia panta parissotero

Spent the last 4 1/2 months being completely single. Now I am ready to try the dating thing again. It is a little scary considering that I was married at one time for 12years and got of a almost 2 year relationship with a guy 8 years younger. I am wondering if this is the way to go to try to meet people. I think I will do ok. I have no problem attracting guys but get kinda of tired of guys hitting on me just cause I am attractive and would like them to look past my looks and get to know me.

I have been single now for two months. Hooray! My last relationship didn't work out so well because we were too different, which is a shame because we have a child together. He was too abusive verbaly, emotionaly, and mentaly. After two years, I couldn't take it anymore. Thank God it is over with because it was really hurting me to be in that relationship.

Two months later I am ready to get back on my feet again. I'm ready to move on with my life. I've made so many mistakes in the past trying to find the right guy. Now I feel I know what signs to look for and what things I like in a partner. I have hopes that this time wont be a huge mistake.

In my life right now I am busy taking care of my son. His name is Joshua and he's seven months old. I love him so much. I am also busy with school and a little bit of work. I spend most of my time out doing things like running arrends, going by my friend's house, or shopping. When I'm at home I like to be on the computer talking with someone.

I'm 19 and will be turning 20 in September. I guess at this point in my life I am all about finding my place in things. Finding out who I am and really want to be in the next few years. What I want to do with the rest of my life. And finding that one person that I can spent it with. I'm a single mother with a baby boy and call me old fashioned, but I think that a woman in my position needs someone there to protect her and take care of her.

This world is so dangerous nowadays. A young woman my age with a son is an easy target I think. I also want someone there for my son. Someone who can be a good role model and someone who can teach him things. Not that Joshua's father wont be there or that I want to replace him, but I feel its important for a young boy to have an older male in the home.

Of course these are not the only reasons I am here. I am also seeking companionship. Someone who will listen and someone who will talk. Someone who will encourage me and support me. A man who cares and is loyal, loving, and romantic. Someone to spend my time with. That's really what its all about, I think.
