My family is a crazy circus:
Dad is the stage, always there to support us with our own performances.
Mom is the ring leader, who helps us make our decisions in life.
Aubree is the audience, always ready to listen and have a good laugh.
Miranda is the tight-rope walker, always daring and there to surprise everyone.
And I am the spot lights, making it possible for everyone to be seen.

Lyric Pick
"Waiting For The End" - Linkin Park
General idea/story inference:
I think this is a song about just life and going through hard times. He sounds like he might of been in a relationship with a girl and then she left. And that he's not at the beginning or end of life he is in the middle and he wishes he had a better life like he used to.
Quote inferences:
1.] "This is not the end this is not the beginning"-- I think this line means that he's at a point in his life where he feels like he's not achieving anything and not getting anywhere. His life is hard and he feels like it's not going to end.
2.] "Cause we living at the mercy of the pain and the fear"-- I think this line means that he's having a hard life. He fears that if he messes up again it could bring pain to him and people he loves.
3.] "This was never meant to last, I wish it wasn't so"-- I think this line shows that he regrets something in the past that he had done. No good came from it and now he realizes that what he did was a bad choice.
4.] "The words sound steady somethins empty within em"-- I think this line shows that from experience he knows some choices sound like they will become something good. In the end they just decieve you and it can turn into a bad situation.
5.] "All caught up in the eye of the storm"-- This line means that he got himself in a lot of trouble. Whether it was a personal situation or included some of his loved ones. Once he got himself into it, it was hard to get back out and try to fix what he had messed up.
Lyrics:
This is not the end
This is not the beginning,
Just a voice like a riot
Rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone
And the violent rhythm
Though the words sound steady
Something empty's within 'em
We say Yeah!
With fists flying up in the air
Like we're holding onto something
That's invisible there,
'Cause we're living at the mercy of
The pain and the fear
Until we dead it, Forget it,
Let it all disappear.
Waiting for the end to come
Wishing I had strength to stand
This is not what I had planned
It's out of my control....
Flying at the speed of light
Thoughts were spinning in my head
So many things were left unsaid
It's hard to let you go...
(Oh!) I know what it takes to move on,
(Oh!)I know how it feels to lie,
All I wanna do
Is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I haven't got
Sitting in an empty room
Trying to forget the past
This was never meant to last,
I wish it wasn't so...
(Oh!) I know what it takes to move on,
(Oh!)I know how it feels to lie,
All I wanna do
Is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I haven't got
What was left when that fire was gone?
I thought it felt right but that right was wrong
All caught up in the eye of the storm
And trying to figure out what it's like moving on
And i don't even know what kind of things I've said
My mouth kept moving and my mind went dead
So, picking up the pieces, now where to begin?
The hardest part of ending Is starting again!!
All I wanna do
Is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what i haven't got...
This is not the end
This is not the beginning,
Just a voice like a riot
Rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone
And the violet rhythm
Though the words sound steady
Something empty's within 'em
(Holding on to what i haven't got)
We say Yeah!
With fists flying up in the air
Like we're holding onto something
That's invisible there,
'Cause we're living at the mercy of
The pain and the fear
Until we dead it, Forget it,
Let it all disappear
(Holding on to what i haven't got!)
This is not the beginning,
Just a voice like a riot
Rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone
And the violent rhythm
Though the words sound steady
Something empty's within 'em
We say Yeah!
With fists flying up in the air
Like we're holding onto something
That's invisible there,
'Cause we're living at the mercy of
The pain and the fear
Until we dead it, Forget it,
Let it all disappear.
Waiting for the end to come
Wishing I had strength to stand
This is not what I had planned
It's out of my control....
Flying at the speed of light
Thoughts were spinning in my head
So many things were left unsaid
It's hard to let you go...
(Oh!) I know what it takes to move on,
(Oh!)I know how it feels to lie,
All I wanna do

Holding on to what I haven't got

My Name
To me my name means someone who cares about others and wants to help. I try to be respectful to others all the time. I try to not be judgemental of anyone and accept them for who they are. I am very hard headed though, and havee a very strong personality. Once I have a plan or if I have decided to do or to not do something I stick ith it. And I know my mom and dad can get frustrated with me sometimes and I even get frustrated with myself sometimes too but I have to have a routine so I can fit everything into my day and have it work out the way I want it to. I love to be organized and keep a planner of my schedule and what is going on during the week. My family also knows that I like to offer to help people.
There are a few things that make me mad. Like when my sisters tell on me for dumb stuff, or when people yell instead of just talking, or any of those little things. But there is one thing that bothers me the most and that's when people gossip. All it does is cause problems and starts up roomers that usually aren't even true. Nothing good comes from it and it always ends up hurting someone and can ruin relationships.
On the other hand, there are plenty of things that make me happy! My favorite is when my dad comes home from work because I only see him every five days. Also when i'm sick and a friend comes to see me, or when I go shopping, when I have no homework to do over the weekends, when i'm spending time with friends or family, and it can even be as simple and someone just smiling at me in the halls or saying hi. That's what my name is to me.
