I Vow

"Miss Independent" - NeYo

Just a lil' somethin' I stand by that no one will ever change in me. I vow for this new year to allow myself the luxury to be spoiled rotten. I vow to set my own priorities and to do what makes me happy because it's rare. I vow to be loved more than I know how to love because I'm worth it. I vow to cry less unless it's because I laughed too hard. I vow to see more, do more, feel more, and crave more. I vow to take care of myself before taking care of someone else. I vow to be selfish. I vow to take more time off work. I vow to be around people who make me feel alive. I vow to appreciate all things, even the little things I tend to ignore. I vow to take breaks, make mistakes and actually learn from them, never say never, and always think there's something better out there to strive for. I vow to strive for it.

And I vow to get it.

Lyrics:

Oh it's somethin' about
Just somethin' about the way she moves
I can't figure it out
There's somethin' about her

Said oh it's somethin' about
Kinda woman that want you but don't need you
Hey, I can't figure it out
There's somethin' about her

'Cause she walk like a boss
Talk like a boss
Manicured nails to set the pedicure off
She's fly effortlessly

And she move like a boss
Do what a boss do
She got me thinkin' about gettin' involved
That's the kinda girl I need, oh

She got her own thing
That's why I love her
Miss Independent
Won't you come and spend a little time?

She got her own thing
That's why I love her
Miss Independent
Ooh the way we shine
Miss Independent yeah

Oh there's somethin' about
Kinda woman that can do for herself
I look at her and it makes me proud
There's somethin' about her

There's somethin' oh so sexy about
Kinda woman that don't even need my help
She said she got it, she got it, no doubt
There's something about her

'Cause she work like a boss, play like a boss
Car and a crib, she 'bout to pay 'em both off
And her bills are paid on time

She made for a boss, only a boss
Anythin' less she tellin' them to get lost
That's the girl that's on my mind

She got her own thing
That's why I love her
Miss Independent
Won't you come and spend a little time?

She got her own thing
That's why I love her
Miss Independent
Ooh the way we shine
Miss Independent

Mmm, her favorite thing to say
Don't worry I got it
Mmm, and everything she got
Best believe she bought it

Mmm, she gon' steal my heart
Ain't no doubt about it
Girl, you're everything I need
Said you're everything I need

She got her own thing
That's why I love her
Miss Independent
Won't you come and spend a little time?

She got her own thing
That's why I love her
Miss Independent
Oh, the way we shine
Miss Independent yeah

Miss Independent
That's why I love her

Soul Mates

"Once Upon A Dream" - Sleeping Beauty How funny it is that even after all these years and how far we've come with animation, this classic Disney cartoon still grabs me. Yes, I know it's silly, but it's a silly I grew up with and can't help but fall for... I know the story is so far fetched: a 16 year old girl (that looks more like a 21 year old) with gold of sunshine in her hair and lips that would shame the red, red rose sings high up in the mountain tops and suddenly attracts the man of her dreams; her soul mate! (who by golly is the prince that she has been betrothed to since she was a baby!). Unbelievable. So it's all fairytale crap, but so what? I'm not into it because of the romance! To tell you the truth, I don't even like Aurora all that much, the spoiled lil' brat. I mean, she's beautiful in EVERY way, finds out she's a princess and is going to marry into royalty on top of her royalty! I can't really sympathize... Seriousl...

Broken

"Paradise" - Coldplay It took a while for this song to affect me, but I guess a windy drive home through an obstacle course of devastating proportions and the sudden panic of having a "State of Emergency" warning flash within my quiet hometown can change things. A lot. I didn't sleep a single minute last night. Although this isn't anything new, it's new to me to want to sleep and not get it. It was unbelievably frightening to be alone in my room with the nite-lite busted and the wind at full speed...even worse when half the roof over my head flew to the ground with a thunderous thud bringing the rest of the sleepless city to its feet. We've seen the Santa Ana winds, but never at this magnitude. It moved cars and busted windows. It rattled fences and ripped gates apart. It knocked over trashcans and picked up patio furniture like it weighed nothing. In the morning when the dust settled just enough for the hazy sun to bring some light to the mayhem, w...

Welcome to People

Songs TBA Last night, I saw a special, private screening courtesy of the Screening Exchange called, "Welcome to People" directed by Alex Kurtzman. I loved it and it wasn't something that I thought I'd love. In fact, I almost changed my mind at the last minute when I saw that familiar long line down the steps at Arclight Paseo. I figured, "Hell it's just another movie." But I'm so glad I didn't turn around. I'm glad I stood in the back of the line, got my hand stamped and cell phone taken away for nearly 3-hours in order to be in a room filled with strangers. I just wish I had something with me to write down the great songs I heard that disappeared by the time I logged onto this blog. It makes me appreciate technology...so check it out when it comes out. I'll make sure I have my cell phone handy the next time I see it so I can grab some songs along the way. Oh, I'm Hannah, not Frankie and let me know what you think.
