Natalie Imbruglia "Torn"

This was the song that reminded me of the friend I lost last weekend...last night while I was away, he came back, and destroyed my friends...

I thought I saw a man brought to life
He was warm
He came around and he was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry
Well you couldn't be that man I adored
You don't seem to know
Or seem to care what your heart is for
Well I don't know him anymore
There's nothing where he used to lie
My conversation has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's fine I'm torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake
And I can see
The perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn

So I guess the fortune teller's right
I should have seen just what was there
And not some holy light
But you crawled beneath my veins
And now I don't care
I have no luck
I don't miss it all that much
There's just so many things
That I can't touch I'm torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake
And I can see
The perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn

There's nothing where he used to lie
My inspiration has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's right I'm torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake
And I can see
The perfect sky is torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I'm ashamed
Bound and broken on the floor
You're a little late
I'm already torn

Bring Smooth Jazz Back To TWC!!


Hello friends,

Today, it has brought to my attention to share an important petition.

The Weather Channel has been playing smooth jazz music on their Local Forecasts on the 8s, and it has been a wonderful tradition to every viewer. New management kicked in, and switched the genre of music to "rock" music. Most fans do not like it, thus decided to turn off the TV. Many longtime fans of TWC are not happy with this change. It isnt fair for them to change the music without listening to their fans.

My friends and I are working hard to have them bring back smooth jazz. Some of us are huge fans since we were born. They need to listen to us fans because in the future, they will lose viewers by the end of this year.

I ask you to sign this petition my friend has made on here. It is greatly appreciated and that our voices will be heard.

Thank you

--Ana (Anistorm)

Sooo whatcha been up to, Anistorm?

I havent written a blog like this ever since Michael Jackson died. (seriously.) All the other blogs I said I was gonna write on here are written in a 70-page 1-subject notebook labeled "JULY".

Sooo, first of all, I am now in a softball league. I tried out, I waited for my call-back and made it in the 18-and-under league. The teammates, and the coach are awesome. I even earned a nickname, I am known as the "Newbie" of the newbie team. The teammates and I had some bad scrimmages and some practices were pretty tough. The first two games were horrific. We lost two pitchers that week and I was one of the replacement pitchers. I play outfield BTW, I am mostly center field. Today, we had a double header, and we beat both the Brawley Unknowns, and the Imperial Wildcats. My softball skills are getting there, but even though...this is the only year I am playing the league.

Also, well besides that, I have been dealing with some heroine stuff all month long, supporting and getting involved in the TWC Today Forums, and at a chatroom I'd like to call it the "Channel". :P I am one of the moderators, and I do strive to keep it safe from bastards, bitches, and other "" :P

My sophomore year in IVC begins in less than 30 days and I am having problems registering with classes (and I have to wait for some classes to open so I can get the spot). Also, I am worried about financial aid. Tuition fees have raised.

So, that's all I be blogging now...expect me to blog by the end of August. :P j/k

Death Week---6/22/09 to 6/28/09

This past week, it was a week of despair, a week of sadness, and a week of loss. No one thought not one, two, three, but 4 celebrities would die in the same week. No one saw this coming. Especially celebrities in Hollywood, they were in complete shock.

Ed McMahon (died June 23, 2009)-He was that one famous person who is the "sidekick" of Legendary Talk Show Host Johnny Carson (RIP). He always says his drawn-out line "Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeres JOHNNY!" whenever The Tonight Show start in the past decades. He also participated in various charities, and hosted the Jerry Lewis Telethon (which airs every Labor Day). Ed was 86 years old.

Farrah Fawcett (died June 25, 2009)-She was the "international sex symbol" in the 70's and 80's. She was the "original" Charlie's Angel. She was very beautiful. Everyone admired her hair, the "Farrah-do". She was diagnosed with anal cancer and she became very brave. She did a documentary about her battle against her cancer. Unforunately, she lost her battle. Farrah was 62 years old.

Michael Jackson (died June 25, 2009, hours after Fawcett)- He was the King Of Pop. Known for selling billions and billions of albums. And was also known for being a little controversial. Michael Jackson was world-famous. His death has shocked the universe. Michael Jackson died of cardiac arrest suddenly, two weeks before starting his tour in England. He left a hole in every fan's soul. Michael was 50 years old.

Billy Mays (died Today, June 28, 2009) He was famously known as "that one OxiClean guy on TV". He was the "Informercial King". Billy Mays did various infomercials such as FixIt, Kaboom, OrangeGlo, Zorbeez, MightyMendit, and others more. Billy Mays died of an unknown cause (as of yet), he was found unresponsive by his wife earlier that morning. No one will see the future of informercials again. Billy was 50 years old.

As we all take a moment of silence, these celebrities have the right to be honored, for all the work they have done to influence our lives and the past forever.

Why I Hate DirecTV

I've had DirecTV since I was in the 7th grade...in which it's where I first tuned in and started watching TWC. THAT was TV then. Today...DirecTV has new recievers, new remotes...the old recievers are pointless now. Here are some reasons why I despise direcTV.

1. On TWC they have your own ZIP Code LF that appears on every LOT8's. But on certain commercial-free events and stuff...you can't seem to exit out of the stupid LF, even if you press "exit" on your remote". You have to wait two minutes for that LF to do it's "bizness".

2. Channels 100-199 are mostly DirecTV channels. They don't have that much Pay-per-view channels than before.

3. I tried the Game Corner. It SUCKS. At first I thought it was free..I ain't paying $5.99 a month for a game.

4. The Music Choices (aka Sirius XM Radio) are confusing...Every single Genre has it's own channel...and most of them are music that I really really really hate.

5. I live near Arizona, and Arizona gets no local channels. I have to hook up a good SD Antenna to watch the local channels here (some local channels are from Los Angeles and San Diego). WTF, no local channels on satellite=no satellite for meh. (as of now I have to buy a converter box to be able to watch my local channels again <_<)

6. The DirecTV guide can't travel past three days...after 5:00 PM the third day it starts saying "TO BE ANNOUNCED".

7. The remote control has pointless buttons. Even if you have an SD reciever, there is no stupid reason to use the PLAY, STOP, REWIND, FAST FORWARD, RECORD, SKIP 30 SECONDS, and GO BACK 30 SECONDS buttons. Why can't they provide an SD remote? Since all you use is the bottom half of the remote. >_>

So...I am definelty considering switching to another provider. It's CrapTV.

Linkin Park-"New Divide"

These are song lyrics to my (and Jesse's) favorite song. :P

I remember black skies
The lightning all around me
I remembered each flash
As time began to blur
Like a startling sign
That fate had finally found me
And your voice was all I heard
Did I get what I deserve?


So give me reason
To prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the thoughts cross
The distance in your eyes
Give me reason
To fill this hole
Connect the space between
Let it fill up to reach the truth and lies
Across this new divide


There was nothing inside
The memories left abandoned
There was nowhere to hide
The ashes fell like snow
And the ground caved in
Between where we were standing
And your voice was all I heard
Did I get what I deserve?


So give me reason
To prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the thoughts cross
The distance in your eyes
Across this new divide


In every loss, in every lie
In every truth that you deny
And each regret, and each goodbye
Was a mistake too great to hide
And your voice was all I heard
Did I get what I deserve?


So give me reason
To prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the thoughts cross
The distance in your eyes


Give me reason
To fill this hole
Connect the space between
Let it fill up to reach the truth and lies
Across this new divide
Across this new divide
Across this new divide…
That I get what I deserve


So give me reason to prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes
Give me reason to fill this hole
Connect the space between
Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies
Across this new divide

Your (Rock) Music On The 8s.

*And now….your Local On The 8s.*

The music on TWC. Back in the old days it has never changed. Many people enjoyed the smooth jazz music during two minutes before a show segment came on. Back in my old days, when I was a teenager, I never really enjoyed the music...but until March 2003, I heard an awesome song. It was smooth, peaceful, that took me years to look for who it was played by. “Rushing” by Moby was the song.

I have to admit I really do enjoy the smooth sounds of the LF music. I met a friend who is an expert of that kind of music.

BUT…this year, the whole music changed. When NBC purchased TWC, they decided to play music that wasn’t made to be played in the LOT8s. This happened in Mid-April when the decided to extend the March 2009 playlist…just to put “freak music” (in the words of Springy). Some songs in the April-May 2009 playlist were Rock music. For as I’ve heard, there were many disappointing LF music fans.

This month has gotten even worse. They decided to “get rid of the jazz music and add more rock music”. What kind of rock music? That’s how I wondered. If they put like old old old old rock music it’s gonna aggravate me. They might not play “For Real” by Jim Lum or “Rushing” by Moby. Those 2 songs are my favorite so far (oh, and not to mention anything Ryan Farish). I still wonder the rock music part. One time (I hope you guys remember this) they played several LOT8s with vocal music. Nickelback “Far Away”, and Death Cab For Cutie “Soul Meets Body”. I really enjoyed it but it felt weird of them playing vocal music on the LOT8s. (This was in 2007).

Heres my IMO. I have decided to stay neutral on this. I can’t decide and may never be able to decide which side to take. I can’t also have two friends having a different opinion. I mean, I do enjoy rock music, alternative, or indie, but this music that I am hearing is not the rock music I expect to hear on the LOT8s. You are welcome to comment about this but your comments cannot turn me around from being neutral.

Today...they stopped playing the music and turned into "Trammel Starks-a-thon" What is the sign of that?
