Remember these books when we were little??
If there's one thing I cannot stand, it's rudeness. And I am slowly getting tired of NY's rudeness. Everywhere I go - from the subway to Starbucks to my OWN LAUNDRY ROOM, where someone dumped my wet laundry because *I* was waiting for the person using the dryer to get HER stuff out - but did I take HER stuff out? No. Couldn't this person have waited like, 10 minutes? Geez. I'm so, so, so, SO irritated right now. And it's just kind of grating after a while, the lack of manners and civility. It sucks the energy from you. I just downloaded a bunch of Jem songs....here are the lyrics to "It's Amazing"...
Do it now
You know who you are
You feel it in your heart
And you're burning and wishing
At first wait, won't get it on a plate
You're gonna have to work for it harder and harder
And I know 'cause I've been there before
Knockin' on the doors with rejection (rejection)
And you'll see cause if it's meant to be
Nothing can compare to deserving your dream
It's amazing, it's amazing all that you can do
It's amazing, makes my heart sing
Now it's up to you
Patience now, frustration in the air
And people who don't care
Well it's gonna get you down
And you'll fall
Yes you will hit a wall
But get back on your feet
And you'll be stronger and smarter
And I know cause I've been there before
Knockin' down the doors won't take no for an answer
And you'll see cause if it's meant to be
Nothing can compare to deserving your dream
It's amazing it's amazing all that you can do
It's amazing makes my heart sing
Now it's up to you

I do remember those books-how fun!

Thanks,

Found your blog through the Chicks on Lit book club I'm in. I totally understand about the rude people. I don't know if it's the heat here or what but I've been dealing with the same thing for the past couple of weeks and it does suck the energy from you and it makes me just want to give up and stay in my house for days. I don't understand some people. We're all going through something, we shouldn't take it out on others. I also love Jem, just bought their album Finally Woken this weekend. Hope your week gets better.
