Hooplah and stuff

Wow a look over that old mini skirt rant and im like wth i didnt write that, however i know i did.  Wow how people change eh sad sometimes though when im starting to not recognize myself.  Alot of good changes as of late, First and the best being my new boyfriend William such a sexy boi lol and then of course other such changes like a new job, and all my moving and whatnot lol, and good attitude changes such as being less likely to rip someones head off, or be a total bitch, seems to be going well, and i have to thank Will for that. But of course sometimes there are negative changes such as the oh so confident i dont give a rats ass what you think cuz i think i look good chick is hiding somewhere, i found that in the time before meeting Will my self esteem took a wicked nose dive, until I thought very soon I was just gonna crash and burn however it seems I'm finally learning how to work the controls and have managed to pull out but the trip up is a lot more slow going then the one down, so still a long way to go but its going well and I have wonderful support. now lets just hope that i can get back on top. Oh by the way the skirt? I did it looks peachy yay! all from scratch .... new project? knitted socks for my bf and his mom! wooo ill let ya know how it goes.... ya i know i jumped aropund a bit there but unfortunately somwhere along the way my train ofthought derailed and killed millions of innocent thoughts....so enough for now

Mini Skirts and Sewing patterns

Arggh, I have been at this for hours.  I bought some nifty dark brown satiny material for a really nice price and wanted to make a cute skirt, but due to moving and what not i am not able to find any of my skirt patterns, granted making a skirt is much easier then putting together a top dfrom scratch I much prefer pattern use.  So I figured what the hey the internet should have something for me some kind soul has to have put up some direction that poor sewers like me can use.  But oh do yo think I can find it I have been looking easy for like 3 hours now and nope not a single satisfactory pattern.  I was hoping for that cute ruffled mini to try my sewing stylings on but nope I'm sure I could do it from scratch but well I dont wanna. So anyway think im about to give up and just do it my way and hope it works.... this should be interesting.  But on another note arggh I am not a fashion Diva I go with what I like, whats comfortable and things like that and I guess I never really follow trends and if you were to ask my mom or family I kinda make my own damn trends and style without even thinking about it.  So anyway was searching for the beloved ruffle skirt that i think would look sweet in this dark brown satin and go oh so nicely with my fitted army jacket and I come across a few articles, forums and what not.  One being a person totally bashing the ruffle skirt due to its popularity and not at all for any other reason and they only touch briefly on its versatility in a wardrobe.. so yeah arggh number 1, arggh number 2 Came across a forum posting I would guess where there was apparently a display of an outfit ( i couldnt get it to load) but from what I gathered it was a woman in a mini skirt.. While I have to agree that its obviously a good idea to have the legs for a skirt that is obviously limiting your wardrobe and cute/sexy ability.  Because come on if women who didnt have perfect legs never wore a skirt thats just showing how much society has groomed us and programmed us to believe thin is the only beautiful.  But let me tell you I know plenty of bigger women who are so beautiful they just dont think so because of the push on thin. And I have seen bigger girls wear that ruffled mini i am so in love with and make it work. Granted you cant just let it all hang out but any girl with a brain cell or 3 in her head can prob figure it out.   And then of course came the comments on the said photo most of which were only if she has the legs, or only if she is really hot etc etc. like come on it all depends on you definition of hot. Anyway ya, another thing that irks me, being the tomboy that i am I do occasionally like to confuse and startle my friends by wearing a skirt its great fun to see the looks on their faces, but of course i always just say its laundry day. and no I dont have perfect legs not nearly but I love my calves lol.  And you know what for all those people who say you shouldnt wear a pair of nice sneaks with a skirt screw you many a girl has pulled off the look, and being as I cant wear most dress shoes or high heels due to a broken toe I usually always wear sneaks or my beloved Docs lol. So ya I think if ya like it wear it and F*** anyone who says otherwise, just as long as your happy and comfortable thats all that matters.... Anyway I think that is all for my rant at the time being......oh I finished the back of a pair of pants I have been modding for my cuz they lace from waistband to ankles now gotta do the front I like the results so far...maybe I can find a pic somewhere.  Hmmm off to ponder this skirt problem...

Centre Street Crossing in the Town of Napanee

At the level crossing, the Mill lights did blind,
Took the lives of eight, leaving one of nine.
Each trip over the track, you couldn't see,
At the Centre Street crossing in the town of Napanee.

The Lewis family, Harry, Bessie and their son Joe,
The driver Bordon Cox didn't hear the whistle blow.
Clifford Thompson, Maxwell Fox, two more of eight,
Twins Sharon and Sandra McQuaig also lost to fate.

The only survivor, Joan McQuaig, lay by the track,
Because crossing gates and lights, it did lack.
Nothing left but bits of machine and body parts,
Soon to arrive was the coroner, Dr.Hart.

The "Montreal Flyer" it was eleven minutes late,
The engineer Cecil Burleigh would later state.
Jack Sutton, the driver of the cab behind,
Cox still holding the wheel he would find.

A case of beer sat on the track,
18 of 24 would remain intact.
A coat and a comic book on the back seat,
But severed in pieces were hands and feet.

At 6:45, after a movie on Saturday eve,
The town's people and relatives, they would grieve.
Lights and gates and automatic signals are just not free,
I'm glad to see the underpass on Centre Street in Napanee.

Deborah Lewis

This poem is obviously about Napanee, apparently an event that happened in like the 20's. Mom is looking to sell her poem book so I thought I should put up a sample.

FRIENDS??

Happy is all I want to be,
Depressed is what I feel
Can you tell? Do you see?
Whats wrong with me?
Do you know my problems? my life?

Those thoughts buried deep inside
Can you see through my mask of smiles laughter and hyperness?
Or am I that great of an actrice?
Boredom, anger, depressinon all are a part of me
Is there such a thing as true happiness?
Can you tell me? Show me?
Or are you acting too?
Is anyone truly happy?
We live in a world where
happiness is all we're supposed to know
A world with no problems
We're afraid of the things no one understands
the supernatural, life after death, disease, hunger
the things only some will bring to the public
The rich think their money will bring them happiness
but can happiness be bought
Can you say you have one true friend
because it always comes down to that
Someone who knows you, knows those deep down thoughts?
and the only one who can see through the facade
Or are they all false
only there to know the gossip?
Is there one person who can really say life is perfect?
Do you trust them enough to tell them a thought or dream?
Confident enough to cry yell or scream around them whenyou have a problem?
Life is the true test of friendship
Make it through the good ,the bad the harsh and the cruel
Those left standing with you through  all that are your friends
They'll stick with you through thick and thin
those who fall, leave or desert you are false
Look around can you call these people your friends

A horrible truth unearthed
Was he there? Was she there?
Or are you alone after it all
A true friend, will be your light in darkness
your shelter from a storm
a shoulder to cry on
be there when your ill
Maybe even convince you that life is worth living
But through life you may find there are no true friends
Or maybe your friends are a pen and paper

Life can be great if you can be yourself
Don't hide behind a mask
And if something goes wrong say "ta hell with it" and keep on livin'
Cuz thats life boys and girls
one big novel tragic, happy, and whatever emotions come into play
So live it, have fun, be depressed
do what ya gotta do
but always be true

Untitled for now

my hands are shaking
my feet are cold
my heart and mind are racing
I can't hide from you
I can't lie to you
But yet i barely know you
I almost cry because
I care for you
I don't wanna drag you down
Down here to my world
Where love is only a dream
food unwelcoming
and sleep unknown
You're so nice
I can't stand to see you upset
can't bare to share my life
and yet i do every last detail
from depression, to lack of sleep to lack of eating
I want you but can't have you
I respect you I wish i was nice..like you
I wish yo would hold me and say
everything is ok I'm here for you
I fall for personality all the time
and everytime i hurt that person
and all I feel is hurt
makes me wonder why should I love
or care for someone
When everyone I touch I hurt
I'd try for you
to make you happy
to make you see
I can be up
when things are down
that its not a mistake to like me
I wish you would share with
me what I do with you
and yet you don't trust me
I wouldn't tell
I have noone to tell
So I almost cry myself to sleep
I've gone too far I'm in too deep
you say its not possible i say its true
I care for you!
So listen to me
I'm shaking and scared
afraid you don't like me
that things will end in sorrow
like it always does
So goto sleep
and forget what i said
as I plan to do
get on with your life
and I'll try with mine
off to bed you go
and i play with the lighter
as I always do when im upset
now I lay me down to sleep
I give to you my heart to keep....

MY LIFE

II envy those who sleep
for me it always seems so far off
There's always something to keep..
me from precious sleep.
All summer rest seemed like a dream
fall came and once again sleep
Now they're at it again
and sleep once again lost
They fight and argue
yell at me as if its my fault
I help out as best I can
and yet it always seems to still be wrong
Precious sleep will come again
and I will be awake and alive
until then I'm forced to suffer
long sleepless days.

ALONE

ALONE, ALONE NEVER FELT SO ALONE
I'M SITTING HERE IN THE DARK
TUNES SOUND ODDLY FAMILIAR
IF ONLY I WEREN'T SO ALONE
I REACH BLINDLY INTO THE DARK
BUT NOONE IS THERE
DEAR FRIENDS WHO USED TO BE SO CLOSE
NOW GONE, GONE WITHOUT A TRACE
FLOATING CRAZILY THROUGH SPACE
IT STARTED OUT WITH THE ODD BREAKING OF PLANS
THEN MORE OFTEN
NOT BEING THERE WHEN I NEEDED THEM THE MOST
I WALK AROUND FEELING LIKE A GHOST
I SAY HEY AND ITS LIKE I'M NOT EVEN THERE
BUT FRIENDSHIP ENDS AND THATS JUST THE WAY IT IS
ITS JUST ONE OF THOSE DAYS.


A POEM BY FAYTH
This page is a dedication to Kit and Kat.  Although I sometimes I feel all alone I know I have 2 dear friends to listen to my problems and be there when I need a shoulder to cry on.

Mask of Smiles

Sad, pathetic creature
it posesses me
Lying curled, twitching,
Half-dead, oh somebody kill me.
Feelings scattered across this cold floor.
A fire shall warm,
the cold heart within.
Hands shake as the match I light.
Ahh the warm searing pain,
shall not hurt me but heal me.
I cry no more,
Strength has returned,
my cries have ceased,
life goes on so live it.
The sad, pathetic creature gone.
The strong, bold woman takes its place.
She holds her head high.
Love, a strange killer,
Takes a piece of life each time,
Making her cold, callous, uncaring
She walks head high and proud.
Daring, daring anyone to say something,
But they know, they know shes cruel.
If only they knew what she's been through.
The smart ones think they know her,
But they only know a sliver of the truth,
Her eyes are blank seeming to see nothing.
A flash of weakness,
But strength wins and its gone again.
This pen spills its words across this page.
Life, so monotinous,
She feels trapped as if in a cage.
Help, help she cries but no words are said,
Wishing only to be heard.
She wants to tell her story,
But she knows it will make them sick.
Instead she hides behind a mask of smiles.
Her tragic end seems so fitting,
Dying the way she came in,
On the 13th day,13th minute in the 13th hour,
But it was madness,
Madness that brought her death.
Her truth never told.
Still hidden behind the cold,cruel eyes,
And a Mask of Smiles.
