I don't do Numerology.. or anything like that. Thank god. But, surprisingly, what it said about my fashion was actually quite true. Accordingly, I guess my life number is 7. And it said this about 7s: If ever there was a number cut out for sweats and a t-shirt, it's Life Path Number 7. That's not to say you lack class or taste, simply that your attention is turned inward and upward. You are a deep person with spiritual passions, and you prefer not to spend most of your time primping. Since so much of your life is devoted to study and seeking higher wisdom, fashion is not at a premium for you. Strike a balance between comfort and being presentable by filling your closets with loose-fitting pants, breathable knits and fabrics that make you feel at home all the time. It's entirely possible you work from home, or that you spend much of your free "downtime" at home. It is therefore advisable to have plenty of clean sweatshirts, sweatpants and T's at your disposable.
But remember the adage "no man is an island?" That's true for women as well, and whatever passionate path you're on mentally and spiritually, you will find the need to connect with other like-minded individuals. You have the mind of a detective, always searching out new information and seeking to have your questions answered. Take special care that you are well turned-out when you leave the house -- this will gain you credibility and the trust of others, helping you satisfy your innate curiosity.
Also, your solitary pursuits make you very interesting company. Do make sure to go out every once in a while, and on those occasions, let your natural charm and attractiveness shine through. It doesn't take much effort -- a simple dress with a feminine touch, for example, will do the trick.
That is true. I don't really care what kind of clothes I wear. I like to wear comfy things. Like tshirts, pj pants, that type things. Things that aren't clingy to me. I HATE dresses. Though I do have 3 pretty dresses in my closet, I haven't actually worn them. Well, one I did; I wore it when my grandpa came to visit in January.
But seriously. This was surprisingly accurate. Though I won't ever believe in something like this. Unless there was a religion for Google or something. Then we'd see. =] Cuz, let's face it, we know more stuff because of Google, NOT school. ♥

Friday's Song
OMG! I am SOOOOOOOO excited!!!!!! Today's song is The Unforgiven III by Metallica FINALLY. PLAYED. LIVE!! ♥♥
The Unforgiven III is my most absolute FAVORITE song from their new album, Death Magnetic. It's so heartfelt. It almost surpasses the first Unforgiven!! Unforgiven II was a good song, but not a great one. It wasn't up to par with Unforgiven. But, Un3, as it's known to fans, IS up to par and almost better than the original one!
In the 1st and 2nd Unforgiven, the concept was that YOU were the Unforgiven. in Un3, he finally asks if HE'S the unforgiven.
Instead of Un3 starting with the inverted horn, like Un1 & 2, it starts with a piano piece played by James Hetfield! Woo. He got to show off his piano skills. (he took piano for 3 years. Starting when he was about 10.) ;)
Until recently, Un3 has been the ONLY song that hasn't been played live. BUT, on April 14 in Oslo, Norway, it was played live for the FIRST time! ♥ And they did a FANTASTIC job of it! Of course, the Piano part and the orchestra parts WERE tracks, but everything else was real and wonderfully played. Though, it'd be really, really cool to one day watch James play piano.
SO! Without further adieu, The Unforgiven III LIVE! Enjoy!

College
I am contemplating going to College. Where? San Francisco. I was looking at the University of San Francisco last night, but I don't believe I'll be going to that one. Even if I do pick a college, I don't know when I'll join.
You see, my mother, as I have said in earlier posts, is having a baby in early August. After she has the baby and goes back to work, I'm going to be the one who babysits him while she's at work. I don't know how long I'll be babysitting. I will love it though because I love children. I would like to go to college though. But, of course, I would need to get my GED.
I don't have my high school diploma because of personal reasons. Mostly because, when senior year started, I had a job that I didn't want to sacrifice for school. When I quit the job, school was already halfway over. My mother re-enrolled me into high school, but she moved out a few days later. After she moved out, I stopped going because I have insomnia. Most nights I wouldn't have even went to bed by the time I had to get up. So I would always sleep in class and get yelled at for it. I thought it bullshit and stopped going. I didn't graduate and I don't have my GED yet. I don't really care for my GED. Mostly because I don't believe that a little piece of paper signed by a bunch of assholes should determine whether or not I'm smart. I know I'm smart. I may not be smart with the choices I have made in life, but intellectually and factually, I am smart.
But I digress. The first college in SF I looked at was the University of San Francisco. But because I believe that you need a high school diploma to enter that university, I don't believe that I'll be going to that school. The college that I am now looking into is Chabot College.
For college, I would like to be a major in Music Theory with minors in both Art and History. Though, to be honest, these would not help me with the life career I have chosen. I want to be a Hair Stylist. =] Stupid and somewhat dumb, perhaps. But I like working with peoples hair. I am no good with my own hair, but with other peoples, yes. Because I can see clearly what I'm doing. I can't see what I'm doing with my own hair.
Enough of hair talk. I would like to go to college in San Francisco, with a major in Music Theory and minors in Art and History.
I chose Music Theory because I love music. I would like to know how Harmonies and Rhythms work. How different parts of the song come together to create a beautiful sound. How to read sheet music. I would very much love to learn how to read sheet music. I think sheet music can be very pretty at times. All the different notes. And in truth, one of my many tattoo ideas has music notes incorporated into it.
I chose Art because I love to draw. Though I am NOT very good at it. I would like to learn. To be able to paint beautiful landscapes, or figures of people. Or maybe even just a beautiful mess. Though, mind you, not like that Jackson Pollock, I believe, who used paint splatters as art. No, no. I don't like his paintings at all. My favorite painter of all time is Johannes Vermeer. I LOVE him because of the how he painted. He didn't paint with just one color. No. He used many colors to create something beautiful.
In one of his paintings, The Girl with a Wineglass, the woman is wearing a red skirt. Though in the shadows of the skirt, it looks a little purple. The shadows of the red satin dress are under painted in natural ultramarine, and, owing to this underlying blue paint layer, the red lake and vermilion mixture applied over it acquires a slightly purple, cool and crisp appearance that is most powerful.
I also loved how his paintings could draw so much emotion. There is one, Woman Holding A Balance, She is dressed in the traditional blue outfit of Mary, and she is pregnant, which suggests there is a connection with the choice and the Last Judgement depicted in the background. The woman stands between a depiction of the Last Judgment hung in a heavy black frame, and a table covered with jewelry representing material possessions. The empty scale stresses that she is balancing spiritual rather than material considerations. Vermeer's portrayal does not impart a sense of tension or conflict; the woman exudes serenity. Her self-knowledge is suggested by the mirror on the wall. The painting suggests the importance of moderation, self-awareness, and a full understanding of the implications of a final judgment, and what it would be to be the woman who gave birth to it.
But I have again digressed too much. The last is History. I chose History simply because I love History. I love to learn about different counties and what happened in their growth throughout the centuries. My favorite civilization is, of course, Ancient Egypt. But my second most favorite time period would be that of King Henry VIII and a little after him; between 1600-1800. Nothing more later in the 1800s because everything seemed to start getting modernized? I guess you could say. I love the old times. The times of big dresses with tight corsets. How everything was so simple in those days. It would've been nice to live in those times I think. Well, if you were high class. If you were low class, things wouldn't have been so nice.
I come to the end and to the point. I would love to go to college in San Francisco to have a, oh I don't know, Masters? in Music Theory with minors in Art and History. But because of present timings, I cannot. Hopefully in the not too distant future, I am able to. When things are more settled and I have become more settled in life. When I am at a happier place in my life, perhaps.

Today's Song! =]
Today's song is The Howling by Within Temptation.
Within Temptation is a Symphonic Metal band from Holland. They sing their songs in English. The band was formed in 1996 by the vocalist Sharon den Adel and rhythm guitarist Robert Westerholt.
I LOVE them!♥♥ The first song I heard was What Have You Done with Keith Caputo. (It's a downloadable track on Guitar Hero: World Tour) I have since listened to a lot of their songs and The Howling is one of my most favorite songs.
There are two versions of the music video; the original with the full length song, and a remake with the radio edit song version. My favorite video wise is the second version. But because it cuts out a small section of vocals, I prefer the original video. The video was released to help promote the video game The Chronicles of Spellborn.
(This is the link to the original Spellborn music video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcwO0VS9FVo)
ENJOY!
(This is the second version. I can't embed the original one because WTofficial has disabled the embedding and I can't find it anywhere else. But enjoy this one!)[To see the video in it's actual glory, make if fullscreen.]
(This is the long version of the song. This is my favorite version of it. ♥)

Friday's Song
Today's song is Whataya Want From Me? by Adam Lambert. I LOVE this song. It's a song about a relationship gone wrong somewhere. One half did something wrong and wants to know how to fix it while the other half doesn't want anything to do with that person. (It reminds me of Jesse James and Sandra Bullock right now. Jesse doing everything he can to try and fix the relationship with Sandra; while Sandra's basically like "fuck off!")
But not only that, but I'm sure just about everyone has been in this kind of trouble. You've done something to hurt a friend, you want to fix the relationship but don't know how cause the person won't talk to you. I was in something like that about 4 years ago. I went out with my best friend's ex-boyfriend. When I told her she was really mad. But after a couple minutes she calmed down. We're still best friends. (We call each other sisters. <3)
But anyways! Here's the song; Whataya Want From Me? by Adam Lambert.

Today's Song
It's not quite Friday, but there IS a song today! Cuz it's been awhile since I've last done one. =]
Today's song is Ryoujoku no Ame by Dir En Grey.
I first heard Dir En Grey while at a Korn concert in '06. They were one of the 2 bands to open for Korn. (The other being Deadsy) I was turned off at first because 1. I had just heard them for the first time and didn't know who they were & 2. Kyo(lead singer) hit himself in the face and made himself bleed. I'm not into shit like that. I thought it EXTREMELY stupid.
However, since becoming friends with a very good friend of mine who's obsessed with DEG, I have come to love them. I will give you basic DEG info.
DEG is a metal band from Japan. They have been around since around '97. When they first started, they were into the Visual Kei looks; i.e. they dressed and looked like girls. They have since grown out of that stage and look very grown up and less like girls. =] In '05 they performed in Europe for the first time & in '06, the US for the first time. AND! yes, their songs ARE in Japanese. But no matter what the language, the music can still be amazing.
I now give you Ryoujoku no Ame!!
