Love Song For No One

God this is like the best song ever, i love these lyrics because I can relate to them so so well. Although I can't write songs i'd totally like to claim this one as my own.

Love Song For No One
~John Mayer

Staying home alone on a Friday
Flat on the floor looking back
On old love
Or lack thereof
After all the crushes are faded
And all my wishful thinking was wrong
I'm jaded
I hate it


I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
So tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here


Searching all my days just to find you
I'm not sure who I'm looking for
I'll know it
When I see you
Until then, I'll hide in my bedroom
Staying up all night just to write
A love song for no one


I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
So tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here


I could have met you in a sandbox
I could have passed you on the sidewalk
Could I have missed my chance
And watched you walk away?


I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
So tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
You'll be so good
You'll be so good for me

huh this quiz is pretty true

:sigh: so i'm feeling a little better now. I kinda decided not to deal with the confusion I was feeling and just try to be hapy which seems to be a good thing for now but also a bad thing because I still feel somewhat confused. bah. anyways i'm bored cuz there's no one online so here's my "personality profile"
Personality Type Report for Madelyn

Your Personality Preferences

INTROVERT
While you may not be anti-social, you do need (and deserve) your private time and space to retreat from the world. Unlike extroverts, you need to develop a concept of the world or some aspect of it before experiencing it. Too much socializing may sap your energies. Your energies are derived from exploring the inner world of ideas, impressions and pure thought.

INTUITIVE
While you do process information through your senses you add a twist to your processing by relying on intuition and serendipity. You look for undercurrents of meaning and abstractions in what you experience physically. You do not just see things just as they are, but as what they could be. While you may rely on common sense at times, you trust inspiration far more.

PERCEIVING
You like to have as much information as possible before making a decision. Putting off a final decision until the last moment does not make you uncomfortable. Indeed once a decision is made, a course plotted, you may feel a bit uneasy, because you feel bound to a certain course of action. You would much prefer to wait and see what happens. You enjoy the opportunity to improvise. Commitments are not etched in stone to you, and are changeable.

FEELING
You make decisions subjectively based upon your values and what is important to you. How people will be affected by your decisions is important to you. You are likely to make decisions based upon what you feel is acceptable and agreeable rather than what is logical. Your truths are founded in your values and those of the society you live in. It is important to remember that we are discussing how you evaluate data and make decisions, and that you rely on your feelings to do so in no way implies you are overly emotional.

Your Personality Type

Introvert/Intuitive/Feeling/Perceiving

You are devoted and compassionate. You have a well-developed distaste for rules, orders and schedules. You are a natural born learner and can get so absorbed in your projects that you forget those around you. You are passionate about your beliefs and love ideals. You have very high standards for yourself. You are very creative, sensitive, reserved, and introspective. You respect the values of others and expect them to respect yours.

In relationships you are loyal and totally committed. You prefer a few deep relationships over a horde of acquaintances. Because you are somewhat reserved, you do best in one on one and small group situations. When you feel comfortable, you can be very entertaining and capricious. You are nurturing and supportive by nature. You greatest social challenge is to balance your need to withdraw into your inner-world with your need to keep a strong connection with those you care for. .

Famous People of Your Type:

Homer, Virgil, Mary, mother of Jesus, St. John, St. Luke, William Shakespeare, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, A. A. Milne, Laura Ingalls Wilder, Helen Keller, Carl Rogers, Fred Rogers, Dick Clark, Donna Reed, Jacqueline Kennedy Onasis, Neil Diamond, Tom Brokaw, James Herriot, Annie Dillard, James Taylor, Julia Roberts, Scott Bakula, John F. Kennedy, Jr.

Occupations Suited to Your Type Include:

Actor, architect, artist, composer, editor, translator, journalist, librarian, musician, occupational therapist, psychotherapist, educator, researcher, scientist, and writer

Shiver

Hey all. summer's been treating me pretty well so far. Katie came up to the lake with my family on saturday and nancy and sydney came on sunday after their soccer tournament. That was fun, first lake weekend of the summer which was hard for me to believe, not quite sure why. Katie and I spent some time behind the boat on the jetski thingy which was so much fun "AHH I CANT SEE!" Syd was scared of the fish so when we went out on the rafts she wouldn't stop kicking which got us al wet. nancy acquired two nicknames-weed checker and gimpy tehehe. And then I got pretty burnt yesterday or so it seemed but it pretty much all turned to tan today so thats kewl. other than that I haven't been up to too much lately. I hafta go get a bone scan tomara because they think i might've stress fractured my back. bah!! And camp's next week so i'm really hoping they won't say I hafta rest it for a long time or anything. that would totally suck. But maybe it's not fractured just like "overused" as the guy put it last week. But yeah, camp's next week. Like half excited for that. Really excited to room with danni and hang with everyone and have Krissy for dance, that's like the best part of my whole day. But i'm kinda freaking out wondering what I'll hafta work this year, it happens to me almost every year and usually it turns out fine cuz they never make you do anything you're really scared of or anything but this year my idea is to really push myself because I wanna have my level 6 routines as good as I can get them come september...the first meet. I really need to mke state in december this year because I need to be a 7, even if i can't compete 7 yet. I suck at pushing myself and meeting goals though. Guess I'll just hafta change my ways. I should write about that! Gosh i've just like run out of ideas lately cuz I usually write about love or lack thereof but it gets old after awhile, ya know? I've tried ot write about my faith but it always turns out so cheesy and superficial sounding. I'll hafta right about drive, perserverance and determination then maybe it'll cause me to push myself harder.
*sigh....* well ok i'm kinda drained now so i'm gonna end this. write more later.

Sending my love to YOU

Madelyn

*....You chew me up/And spit me out/Enjoy the taste I leave in your mouth/You look at me/I look at you/Neither of us know what to do/There may not Be another way to your heart/So I guess I'd better find a new way in/I shiver when I hear your name...*

Lyric stuff

You know you're from MN when...

hey thought some of this was amusing, deleted the ones I totally don't get/aren't funny.




You Know You're From Minnesota When...


The weather is usually 80% of your conversation.

When you say "down south" you're referring to Iowa.

You call highways "freeways."

You've never taken public transportation.

75% of your graduating high school class went to the University of Minnesota.

"Perkins" was the only hangout option in high school.

You assume when you say "The Cities" people know where you're talking about.

People from other states love to hear you say words with "o"s in them.

In a conversation you've heard someone say "yah sure, you betcha" and you didn't laugh.

You know what Mille Lacs is and how to spell it.

You know what "uff-da" means and how to use it properly.

The only reason you go to Wisconsin is to get fireworks.

You're a loyal Target shopper.

You've frozen your tongue on a metal handrail before.

You wear shorts when it's 50 degrees outside in March, but you bundle up and complain in August when it goes below 60.

You have gone trick-or-treating in 3 feet of snow.

You've not only walked across a lake, you've driven across one.

Everyone you know has a cabin or, at least, access to one.

You have worn shorts and a parka at the same time.

Your town isn't trying to be ironic when it plans a "winter carnival."

The temperature in March is above freezing for three days in a row, and you think it's summer.

You laugh out loud every time you see a news report about a blizzard shutting down the entire East Coast.

You never meet any celebrities except The "BODY"

You know what and where "Dinkytown" is.

You have refused to buy something because it's too "spendy."

Your town has an equal number of bars and churches.

You (or your parents) voted for Mondale.

You know that everyone has a city preference -- Minneapolis or St. Paul.

You can honestly claim Germanic / Scandinavian ancestors, and have been known to say "ya" instead of "yes"

You actually get these jokes and pass them on to other friends from Minnesota.

footprints

Hey! ok get ready for a long random entry. I haven't actually updated with like what's happening in SO long and I STILL haven't been able to get anything written like poetry wise. argh.
Well it's summer now....finally! It's been ok so far. Friday was way fun, sat and today were alright. It was kinda funny cuz I was listenin to usher's confessions album for some reason yesterday and it made me feel like it was last summer again. That was like the soundtrack of last summer along with switchfoot's the beautiful letdown. But I remebered cruising in the new boat, sittin up at like midnite memorizing the words to confessions part 2, trying to learn amanda's dance to "Yeah", Cory tellin me he listened to it during wt. training. Idk made me nastolgic (sp?!)
Last sumemr was a really good summer for me for the most part. tons of new experiences and tons of spending time with my bff's. Who knows maybe this one will be even better. i wonder what this summer's "soundtrack" will be though....hard to say at this point.
Anyways I've gotta start tring to write something cuz I haven't in so so so long and I feel like I really need it. not that i'm like depressed I still need that release tho. And the last time I was gonna write which was a few weeks ago at the lake I was just so confused and angry along with being depressed that I ended up ripping up stuff rather than writing. It's turned out good tho, we're on the same page and things are under control.
And then there's me trying to grasp hold of my faith again. After the mission trip last year and confirmation in the fall my faith was like more than it's ever been and it felt amazing. But now i've lost hold of it again, I get the feeling back every so often but it's kind of like holding onto a slipper bar of soap, u have it for a second and then it disappears and falls out of your hand and you hafta search for it all over again. idk i found it a few weeks ago when i pulled out my newsboys cd for the first time in a LONG time and by the last song i was in tears. Oh by the way i've decided not to read jeremiah or 1 chorinthians, rather genesis or if i get bored with that maybe some psalms.
So yeah that's about it for now. here's some lyrics.
*....And I know that it's coming but I can't see it now and I've touched it in moments but I can't hold it yet and it glows in the darkness and it calls us away to our true destination to that glorious day We'll be singing hallelujah we'll be singing hallelujah at the top of our lungs halle-le-lujah to Your glory, hallelujah, Hallelujah, hallelujah...*

Footprints
One night a man had a dream.
He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord.
Scenes from his life flashed across the sky
and he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
one belonging to him and the other to the Lord.
When the last scene of his life had flashed before him,
he recalled that at the lowest and saddest times of his life
there was only one set of footprints.
Dismayed, he asked, "Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you,
you'd walk with me all the way.
I don't understand why, when I needed you most,
you would leave me."
The Lord replied, "My precious child.
I love you and I would never leave you.
During your times of trial and suffering
when you saw only one set of footprints...

That was when I carried you."

p.s. i put more lyrics and stuff in here to make up for my lack of creativity lol

Madelyn Claire...loves u!
