Lyrics:
Kanye West - I Wonder
Find your dreams come true
And I wonder if you know
What it means, what it means
[chorus]
And I wonder if you know
What it means, what it means
And I wonder if you know
What it means to find your dreams
I've been waiting on this my whole life
These dreams be waking me up at night
You say I think I'm never wrong
You know what, maybe you're right, aight
[chorus]
You say he get on your fucking nerves
You hope that he get what he deserves, word
Do you even remember what the issue is
You just trying to find where the tissue is
You can still be who you wish you is
It ain't happen yet
And that's what the intuition is
When you hop back in the car
Drive back to the crib
Run back to their arms
The smokescreens
The chokes and the screams
You ever wonder what it all really mean
[chorus]
And I'm back on my grind
A psychic read my lifeline
Told me in my lifetime
My name would help light up the Chicago skyline
And that's what I'm
Seven o'clock, that's primetime
Heaven'll watch, God calling from the hot lines
Why he keep giving me hot lines
I'm a star, how could I not shine
How many ladies in the house
How many ladies in the house without a spouse
Something in your blouse got me feeling so aroused
What you about
On that independent shit
Trade it all for a husband and some kids
You ever wonder what it all really mean
You ever wonder if you'll find your dreams

in my 'advanced accounting' course, my prof told us that the 'oh ya' method doesnt work. that we need to actually do problems and try to solve them to get good at it. rather than looking at examples, 'learning them', and conclude by saying 'oh ya, i know how to do this'
i've lived life 22 years using the 'oh ya' method
no wonder i havent been able to solve any problems. i just have the skimming knowledge but not any of the experience. im getting killed by those who have worked on their problems and have a good grasp of how to solve them.. im a big hit or miss.. relying on memory...
now that i have to actually apply my knowledge, im struggling. effin hell
maybe im not a nice guy after all. always was, always will be an asshole
2 exams tomorrow and im screwed for them.. they're quite difficult.. im here at the library studying. but i thought i'd take about 2mins of my time describing a pet peeve here
ppl like to use public comps to check facebook. whoopdee-do ,someone posted on your wall. get over it. check it at home. dont need to carry on your obsession over to here.. using computers that others need to use for their studies. i mean, the person right next to me came on just to check facebook for 5mins. how obsessed with stalking do you have to be? most ppl i see just look at pictures. STALK-ERS
pure OCD problems.. or stalking problems.. cant tell which one is worse
i would appreciate it if ppl would stop trying to hack into my gmail account... thanks..
i dont even like to use it. and i barely get anything there but spam. i'd reliquinish it to you, mr. desperate hacker, but now i hold on to it in spite... (and it logs me on to this)
You've been hiding in the shadows Have you forgotten how we used to dream Let me remind you The light doesn't blind you at all It just helps you see Can you see
the "contagiousness" of coughing... when one person in a room starts coughing, others take it as a cue to start coughing.. bloody hell. i think they cough on purpose.. to fill in the gap or something... i HATE it..

today was such nice weather.. why write exams in such weather.... the thing that boggles my mind is that all i could think about was taking my shirt off.... saved soul syndrome? (s^3?)
during the exam period, i love doing everything but study
things that have been on my mind:
-softball this summer -dragonboat this summer -what to do for my bday, if any -if i'll be bored by the rest of my life, aka my fulltime job -missing mac -missing house + housemates -missing the ability to just loaf around, chat, hangout without reprecussions
and more

i have a vicious post lined up.. but it needs some time and attention by me to write it up. it's entitled "how to be a decent human being" however, i lack the time, will (on and off), and effort needed whoever it's addressing will know if this person decides to read
"Men who are more attractive than their partners would theoretically have access to partners who are more attractive than their current spouses, McNulty said. The "grass could be greener" mentality could make these men less satisfied and less committed to maintain the marriage.
Physical attractiveness of husbands is not as important to women, the researchers suggest. Rather, wives are looking for supportive husbands, they say. "
1-3 in chess tonight.. ok though. played a strong player.. made foolish mistakes..
first game, i was white and too aggressive.. got the advantage in pieces but gave up horrible position
second game, i was black and was down in pieces but superior on position.. opponent made a mistake and it was over for him
third game, i was black again and sacrificed my queen.. but he caught on last minute and basically ended up trading pieces with me getting the bad end.. it was lost for me from then on
last game, i was white and went on the pure attack.. sacrificed a lot of pieces to try and get the win while making a blunder.. i was always one move away from putting him away.. but i couldnt think it out.. my brain stalled.. i lost
but it felt great to be so challenged again.. the thrill of needing to pull it out.. i love it
