The Death of a Pop Legend 1958-2009



Honestly who could hate his music? He was on the pop scene for so many years as one of the top people, he was who started an era of music and created a venue that hadnt been explored before. He brought amazing dance moves, some awesome songs that stay stuck in your head for weeks, and not only that he was the true King of Pop

No one can take the title away from Michal Jackson. If not for him we would have never had boy bands and while for some that isnt a bad thing, it made my childhood. I was raised by parents that loved his music, and while i love his music as well, I fell in love with Nsync. They were the people that truly were mini-michaels, they based their syncronized movements on videos like Thriller and Smooth Criminal.

MTV while crap now, they were all great when they were actually MUSIC TELE-VISION, When people gathered around the TV to watch the world premiere of Michael Jacksons newest video.

One thing that upsets me the most is that people will not separate the bad habits, with the true artistry that he possessed. I believe now that he is gone, he needs to go down in history as a person that started a generation, not only the generation, but he has left music that will stay in the hearts of everyone.

Talking to the people that grew up with him, they remember the roller skating and listening to him as well as moon walking in skates. He left fond memories in many hearts.

To me, I will always separate the music from the habits.

Champions in the Making


The Chicago Slaughter has been on the scene for the last 2 years, they have been slowly coming out to become an essential part of my life and an essential part of other peoples lives. This year with the absence of the Chicago Rush, it has allowed the Slaughter not only to become bigger but also to gain some interesting and amazing players. Russ Michna, DeJuan Alfonso, Dennison Robbinson, Donovan Morgan, Khreem Smith and who could forget the addition of Bobby Sippio, Those are just a few of the players that the CIFL recieved after the fall of the AFL,

Now that the Slaughter made it 12-0 in the regular season, there is no way that they are going to fall now. Almost every game has been a high scoring game just because these players are amazing and love what they do, as well as giving the fans a good show. Someone like Bobby Sippio makes his mark when he scores, even to the point that they have thrown a flag on him, like this past week after a touch down he took the ball, layed down on it in the center of the Slaughter symbol on the field and then another player laid a Slaughter blanket down on him. It was amazingly cool and creative.

Not only are the games fun, but the tail gating before the game is always something to be noticed, the smells fill the Sears Center and they also make such an impact that a lot of people show up late to the game itself, which doesnt bother me because im always helping set whatever they need up.

The fan friendly environment is amazing! The Slaughter players are extremley sweet guys and they are very willing to stand around after the game and sign autographs because that is just what they like to do, they like to be there for their fans because most of the fans that come and see them are there at EVERY game. Also one other thing to note about the player, they are always very willing to take pictures with you and they are genuinely great guys.

This team is more like a big family, there are always people that are around the slaughter because all of the players and the coaches are amazing, I would recomend the Chicago Slaughter to any and every football fan or even just a sports fan. These players play with more heart than any other professional team I have ever seen.

This team helps with my insanity, it is one of the biggest releases, watching them and screaming my lungs out at the games!!

In my Insanity


In my insanity, I am still trying to find the usefulness as well as the cleverness of being insane. There are somethings that i feel as though my insanity helps me with, and other times i feel as though it pulls me down.


Expressing my insanity is the easiest way for my to express my insanity but sometimes its not exactly the release that I need, sometimes i need the comfort in my life from my friends and my family.



I still wish at times that i could figure out why i feel this way, why anyone feels misplaced in this world and ofcourse I am still wondering how I am here to help



I thank god for my life, Thank my parents for the knowlege and strength that they give me and my friends, Virtual or otherwise for the friendship and the power that comes with having friends.

Although now, I wonder if I will be able to really help anyone in this big world, but if I can help, I will be ready with an open mind and an open heart.

Construction <3


Part of starting a new path is finding how to make it through the reconstruction, Trying to find the way through the new things in life.

When one door closes another door opens

When life gives you lemons...so forth

Finding the new opportunities isnt hard its taking your life and molding it so that the change is at a minimum.

Now there is one construction that drives me insane, please bear with my blog as I try to reconstuct it and make it better for readers as well as for myself with updating

Love & Peace
Alyssa


Change:
Blind Melon


I dont feel the suns comin out today
Its staying in, its gonna find another way.
As I sit here in this misery, I dont
Think Ill ever see the sun from here.
And oh as I fade away,
Theyll all look at me and say, and theyll say,
Hey look at him! Ill never live that way.
But thats okay
Theyre just afraid to change.
When you feel your life aint worth living
Youve got to stand up and
Take a look around you then a look way up to the sky.
And when your deepest thoughts are broken,
Keep on dreaming boy, cause when you stop dreamin its time to die.
And as we all play parts of tomorrow,
Some ways will work and other ways well play.
But I know we all cant stay here forever,
So I want to write my words on the face of today.
And then theyll paint it
And oh as I fade away,
Theyll all look at me and theyll say,
Hey look at him and where he is these days.
When life is hard, you have to change.

Looking for the new path



Looking around and trying to find my new perspective, I see what I have been wanting to see, my life starting right before my eyes. What makes these days different than the past, what makes this time looking around different than all those years in high school? I have been waiting for my life to kick in and with a job, with college starting soon, I believe that I am following the yellow brick road.

Although I am trying to find this way through, I keep coming back to the same guy. No matter what he says or what he does I love him unconditionally

All the Same
Sick Puppies

I dont mind where you come from
As long as you come to me
But I dont like illusions I cant see
Them clearly
I dont care, no I wouldn't dare
To fix the twist in you
You've shown me eventually what you'll do
I dont mind
I dont care
As long as you're here

Go ahead and tell me you'll leave again
You'll just come back running
Holding your scarred heart in hand
It's all the same
And I'll take you for who you are
If you take me for everything
And do it all over again
It's all the same

Hours slide and days go by
Till you decide to come
But in-between it always seems too long
Suddenly
But I have the skill, yeah
I have the will, to breath you in while I can
However long you stay is all that I am

I dont mind, I dont care
As long as you're here

Go ahead and tell me you'll leave again
You'll just come back running
Holding your scarred heart in hand
It's all the same
And I'll take you for who you are
If you take me for everything
And do it all over again
It's always the same

Wrong or Right
Black or White
If I close my eyes
Its all the same

In my life
The compromise
I'll close my eyes
Its all the same

Go ahead say it
You're leaving
You'll just come back running
Holding your scarred heart in hand
It's all the same
And I'll take you for who you are now
If you take me for everything
Do it all over again
It's all the same
