The Fray - Where The Story Ends
*great song…. fits me sooo good right now….*
Once on a yellow peice of paper with green lines
he wrote a poem
and he called it “chops”
because that was the name of his dog
and thats what it was all about
his teacher gave him an A
and a gold star
and his mother hung it on the kitchen door
and read it to his aunts.
that was the year Father Tracy
took all the kids to the zoo
and he let them sing on the bus
and his little sister was born
with tiny nails and no hair
and his mother and father kissed alot
and the girl around the corner sent him a
Valentine signed with a row of X’s
and he had to ask his father what the X’s meant
and his father always tucked him in bed at night
and was always there to do it
———————————————
once on a piece of white paper with blue lines
he wrote a poem
he called it “Autumn”
because that was the name of the season
and that’s what it was all about
and his teacher gave him an A
and asked him to write more clearly
and his mother never hung it on the kitchen door
beause of the new paint
and the kids told him
that Father Tracy smoked cigars
and left butts on the pews
and sometime they would burn holes
that was the year his sister got glasses
with thick lenses and black frames
and the girl around the corner laughed
when he asked her to go see santa claus
and the kids told him why
his mother and father kissed alot
and his father never tucked him in bed at night
and his father got mad
when he cried for him to do it
———————————————
once on a paper torn from his notebook
he wrote a poem
and he called it “Innocence: A Question”
because that was the question about his girl
and thats what it was all about
and his professor gave him an A
and a strange steady look
and his mother never hung it on the kitchen door
because he never showed her
that was the year Father Tracy died
and he forgot how the end
of the Apostles’s Creed went
and he caught his sister
making out on the back porch
and his mother and father never kissed
or even talked
and the girl around the corner
wore too much make up
that made him cough when he kissed her
but he kissed her anyway
becuase it was the thing to do
and at 3 am he tucked himself into bed
his father snoring soundly
———————————————
that’s why on the back of a brown paper bag
he tried another poem
and he called it “Absolutely Nothing”
because that’s what it was really all about
and he gave himself an A
and a slash on each damned wrist
and he hung it on the bathroom door
because this time he didnt think
he could reach the kitchen…

Dan: I fell in love with her, Alice.
Alice: Oh, as if you had no choice? There’s a moment, there’s always a moment, “I can do this, I can give into this, or I can resist it”, and I don’t know when your moment was, but I bet you there was one.
Dan: And you left him, just like that?
Alice: It’s the only way to leave. “I don’t love you anymore. Goodbye.”
Dan: Supposing you do still love them?
Alice: You don’t leave.
Dan: You’ve never left someone you still love?
Alice: Nope.
Dan: This will hurt.
Dan: When I get back, please tell me the truth.
Alice: Why?
Dan: Because I’m addicted to it. Because without it, we’re animals. Trust me.
Alice: I don’t want to lie. I can’t tell the truth. So it’s over.
Alice: Where is this love? I can’t see it, I can’t touch it. I can’t feel it. I can hear it. I can hear some words, but I can’t do anything with your easy words.
Dan: I’m your stranger. Jump!

I hafta say I absolutely LOVED this movie. I was told it was funny, and its very rare that a movie actually makes me laugh out loud, but this one definately did. The movie stars Gerard Butler (whom I adore) and Kathryn Heigel. I’m not gonna give a full synopsis of the movie cuz you can find it on IMDB.com, but basically its about an uptight, control freak woman (Heigel) who is lookin for the perfect man. She meets Butler’s character who is chauvanistic, rude, crass, and freakin hilarious who claims to tell ‘the ugly truth about men,’ even going as far as saying that if your a fat woman, you need to get on a treadmill. Haha.
You MUST see this movie. It gives an interesting take on a man’s perspective and what he ACTUALLY cares about when it comes to women. Its clever inthe way that ‘He’s Just Not That Into’ was, but much much funnier. Even thr guys I know that’ve watched it couldn’t stop laughing. Its a great movie. I give it 4.5 outta 5 stars. :]
(937): you got so mad from losing a game of beerpong that you went into another room by yourself and practiced for an hour and a half.

Quote of the day…
Theres some STRANGE ideas for costumes here but some are really funny!
(386): after he passed out we removed everything electronic from his room, stuck in some old books and an ancient typewriter from goodwill. for 20 min. we had him convinced he’d drunk himself backward in time.
