I'm in love with this performance.

I kept hearing of Lady GaGa and thought "Oh, another popstar that will be gone in about year."

I hadn't even heard her song...but my friend Greg kept talking about how amazing her music was, so out of curiosity I YouTubed her and slowly but surely, I kinda got hooked.

 

Bit like with Mika to be honest

 

I don't own any of her music though...yet...

That's awesome!

I went through that same process, and now I'm hooked.

I fell in love with the same song, but this performance:

Personally I think she sounds better vocally in this one.

This is so cool!

Thank You!

A collage that I made!:

The picture quality sucks, sorry.

I have become a huge fan of her over the past few weeks. She's amazing

I watched the SyFy mini series of 'Alice' and I found out about Andrew Lee Potts

Edit: Aww you can't see them. Well I can't at least.

Here's a link: Picture

Great! Thank You

Thanks though!

This is kind of just a question for you to think. Its not an arguable answer, kind of just rhetorical questions:

Think about your life right now. Think about everything you have, all the people in your life. Think about other countries and places and what they might have. What's the difference between the two?

Next time you go out, watch the people on the street and wonder what their story is, what is going on in their life, the pain, the joy.

Go somewhere, maybe a mall or a bench on the street or an airport. Just sit and let everything be. Just listen, wonder, observe. Don't DO anything. Don't contribute to the chaos, to the schedules. Just be a part of nature and let everything fall in place. My favorite place to do this is in nature, at the beach during sunset or in the grass.

Also, I was sitting in the passenger seat while my mom was driving one day, and I just watched everything go by and realized how much we have to be doing. I was thinking about every person in the cars and wondering where they were going, where they had to be. Sometimes we let our schedules overtake us. We let our money making and obligations hold us down. One of my biggest fears is this. I don't ever want to be caught in that cycle, even though I realize that I'm heading there. I feel like a lot of the time we focus too much on that. I feel like we have to connect with nature. Just to realize where you are in nature. Look at a flower petal or a blade of grass. For that moment, it becomes your whole world. Think about how it works, how these beautiful things grow out of the earth. I feel like we have to take time to return to innocence. How to be a child again and wonder and be amazed by every little thing we see. Because everything is so amazing.

On the Travel Channel there was a commercial for a program about tribesmen from some exotic country who have never been to America, and who went to America for the first time. They showed clips of these tribesmen being so amazed with every little thing. They opened a bottle of wine and the cork came out, and they acted like it was the craziest thing. They were driving through the city and looking up at the skyscrapers and were counting how many windows there were, like little kids. It made me realize more just how amazing everything is. These tribal men coming from the simplest of lives to our complicated, brilliant existence in these privileged countries. When we go through our everyday lives, all these privileges and luxuries are so normal to us. We don't stop and realize how privileged we are to have clean running water and beds and computers, et cetera.

So, to sum it up, just stop and realize the world, just let everything be and realize how incredibly lucky we are.

Oh! And Happy Thanksgiving yesterday!

This song kind of grasps this idea: Return to Innocence

I'm not in the deepest of moods, but I will respond as best I can.

Yeah I don't feel like anybody KNOWS me either. Well I don't really have close friends, but still... Even my parents don't really know me (anymore).

What I've come to wonder is also if people are honest about their feelings towards others. Some guys behave as if they hate me, but do they? I mean, don't they Just pretend because I'm not popular? A lot of what we tell probably depends on wether we think it's good for our image. I think so because I know I myself try to hit the tone for the environment I'm in.

I agree. I don't feel like anybody truly knows me either. I don't think we can ever be truly understood, inside out, but another person. Everyone's so different, there's no way someone can completely understand or agree with another.

And it really is crazy how different we act around other people. I feel like out of anyone I know, its my dad and sister who don't know me very well. My mom knows me sort of well. But its crazy that my family have known eachother for seventeen years, but my 2 best friends whom I've known for 5 years are like my family. Its like we're another part of eachother. We know eachother inside out. And I wish it was different. I'd love for my family to be best friends, to know eachother so well. But its just so hard.

Perhaps its because of the age difference.

What is beauty?

 

I think that beauty is not only looks, although it is part of it, but also inside. Your personality, your ability to make people think about things they normally don't think about or to make people smile, to make people cry sometimes. Beauty is something so incredibly big.. So .. complete. Beauty is everywhere. Even in the saddest and ugliest things, you can find beauty.

 

Looks. That's a part of beauty that so overrated. When you first meet someone, don't you all look at him/her, look at his/her clothes, hairdo, face, hands and all the other things? I do. I think everyone does. People just have that instinct. People also want to look the same as other people, probably to feel safe, so that they won't gain too much attention. Attention can scare people. Try picking a random someone, and keep staring at him/her. Bet he/she will get nervous? From that desire not to stand out, fashion erupted. Fashion, one of many ways to earn money from human desires. I don't like the idea to be the same as everyone else, but I also don't think I would have to guts to be different. So I do as everyone tells me to do and I mostly buy the right clothes, I get the right hairdo, I wear the right make-up and I try to stay thin enough (another sideline on this could be eating disorders: people who want to stay thin so they fit in and they are so afraid to be fat that they see themselves as fat.) But when someone is different, when someone is wearing different clothes, has got a different hairdo, is a bit heavier, does it matter to the personality, the intelligence and the way they care about other people? No.

 

Now we get to the true beauty of people: What's hidden under these layers of clothes and skin, what's inside of them. Beauty is the ability to make people happy, to make them feel sad because of your words, art or anything. Beauty is there when you give someone a comforting hug, whenever you express your love for someone, whenever you realise that you care about someone. Beauty is in everything and I won't say to anyone that he/she is ugly. Because no-one is. Even when you're ugly in looks, you surely have something beautiful in you. Beauty is so much more than words can say, so much more than anyone will be able to tell.

I think beauty is life. Life is beauty. I think everything is beautiful, even if it takes ages to find the beauty within it.

Beauty is in the fact that we're flawed, in the fact that we try to look 'beautiful' or handsome, try to be a bit more perfect. Our imperfection are beautiful. Its beautiful because it what proves we're human. Beauty is the balance between love and hate, bad and good. Beauty is the fact that the shadow proves the sunshine. Beauty is our bodies, the fact that we have hearts and blood flowing through our veins, the fact that we feel and love and have eyeballs. I feel that beauty is EVERYTHING. There is something beautiful in all of us. I also agree that no one is ugly. Everyone has a beautiful trait that we don't have, and that we want.

I don't think beauty can be defined in words either. I don't know if beauty is our connection with the being that made everything. It seems very possible. Everything is possible...

This is an old bump!

I know hahah.

It randomly showed up in my subscribed threads

aha! someone else noticed I have this magazine, only because mika was in it:biggrin2: its the one with Taylor Lautner on the cover, I screamed in the middle of the store

Taylor Lautner....

... and Mika...

Bad Romance - Lady Gaga

Like a loner. Staying home with me myself and I on a Friday night when I feel like partying but I have no friends to party with.

That songs has been stuck in my damn head

ME TOO!

But I actually like it! Haha. Do you like Lady Gaga?

The music video is pretty good!

Rah rah ah ah ah

Ruh ma ruh ma ma

ga ga ooh la la

Want your bad romance

The Bad Romance video is awesome! Love it. I think I'm about to become a big fan. Maybe not big, but medium.

I dunno if it was posted yet or not but:

 

 

Wauw:wub2: really, I don't understand anyone that says she's not talented.

I was just about to post that video! Really! Hahah, mind reader

I was wondering if anyone had posted it, and was about to post it when I checked out the link you showed haha.

AMAZING! She has such immense talent.

That's so sad about Stephen I never knew who he was, I just looked up his story. Very sad.

The opposite of full

Well after thinking about it, black nothingness would be the worst because you wouldn't even be able to look down at yourself and see your limbs (assuming nothingness included your bodily form). At least if you were in white nothingness you could see your skin and your eyelashes, but with black it's just...black. Or maybe that would be better than whiteness because you wouldn't feel as if you were stuck in purgatory. I don't know.

GaahhH! White would seem better at first, but it would be blinding I think haha. They would both just be incredibly scary and strange. But also with white its just white. But when we think of white we associate light with it, so that makes us think that we would see our bodies. But what if its just the color white? Then we wouldn't see our bodies either.

Gaah! My brain! Hurts! No it doesn't haha.

Do you guys think its possible for your brain to hurt after too much thinking?

I'm Kathy

Hi Kathy! I'm Vanessa Nice to meet you! How are you doing?

I would define "nothing" as emptiness. I also think that there are good-nothings and bad-nothings. And depending on what the nothingness relates to, it has a color. I see good-nothings as white.

 

What about you?

But what is 'emptiness'? How do you define it?

That's cool about the good and bad nothings! I never thought of that. Good nothings do seem like they would be white. What about bad nothings?

Oh god, that's hard:boxed:

When I try to imagine really nothing, it's usually dark/black. But I actually doubt if there really is a nothing. If it's nothing, how can it exist?

That's paradoxical

My answer would relate to 'MissPie's answer. I think of nothing-ness as black. For some reason when I think of nothingness, I think of floating in space. But that is not accurate at all, because there's still sooo much in space. But there are random periods in space where there is not anything for light years and light years. So I guess I picture myself in the random periods of no stars, even though you can still see the farther away objects.

I know! So paradoxical, its crazy.

I don't think that nothing exists though. I think there always has to be something.

To everyone/anyone:

What do you think of when you picture 'nothing'? Do you just picture darkness? I was thinking about this, and realized we never really experience 'nothing'. There's always something. Do you think 'nothing' even exists? How would you define 'nothing'?

I love The Simsssss!!! Its addicting!

Unfortunately I don't have it on my PC I have it "The Sims 2 Pets" and "The Sims: Bustin Out" for my play station 2.

I just love the idea of building houses and have a little separate life in my sims haha.

Its awesome! I for sure want to get "The Sims 3" for the PC soon though.

Eating Mac N' Cheese while holding my abdomen because I have cramps!
