07:02 pm - hey there
So Myspace is being a brat and something is wrong with the sight so I thought I come back to good ol' livejournal and update a bit since it's been so long (...Happy now Adam? haha)

Umm yea so lotta things have been upsetting lately...thank you to those who have noticed and genuinely care. It means the world to me. You all keep me a float. (Micah~ were gonna pull out of this together...no more no more no more! right?! RIGHT!) umm yea and no thanks to the people who are falsely there or come back around when they finally notice somethings wrong. Sometimes you need people when things aren't wrong at all....that's called being a friend....


Friends is a word we use every day but most of the time we use it in the wrong way
Some people say that they got your back but you can tell a true friend by the way they act
And if you ask me know I can't be much help 'cause a friend's somebody you judge for yourself
Doesn't matter what I think I see because a friend to you might not be a friend to me
Some are mellow and they act cool others treat you like you're a fool
Some are always on your side and others just want to take you for a ride
And this list goes on again and again but these are the people that we call friends

Friends-how many of us have them
Friends-ones we can depend on
Friends-how many of us have them
Friends-before we go any further let's be friends


yea anyway .... hw is beckoning ...loudly...along with apps ...so...bye


If you want to know what's wrong, I'll tell you what I can, just ask.......but if I don't tell you what the problem is...maybe you're part of it.

11:04 pm - Thoughts and Prayers that are badly needed
Please, even if you aren't religious, keep in your thoughts and prayers these people:

Micah ~ I know you're in the hospital again. You'll pull through. I need you to pull through.

George's friend Phil's grandma ~ Bad heart situation. We've all known someone who's gone through something like this. It can get better and I hope she does.

Family friend's of ours ~ Been trying to have a baby. Invitro ~ got pregnant and were gonna have twins. Something's gone terribly wrong. Mother was in jepordy for awhile. Babies are most likely if not already lost.

My dad ~ I just don't know ... No one can make me cry as hard and as much...

And anyone who needs a prayer...




Why is it when things just start to go right, my world gets knocked over?



I feel like I'm losing it all.

My friends

My family

My talents

My security

There are a lot of people I care about in this world I'm realizing. And though I've whittled down who I spend my quality time with...I still don't seem to have enough. But to all those I do love and care about, I hope you know who you are, thank you for everything. You guys are amazing and make me who I am. I'm sorry to those who have to put up with my fits and inconsistencies. You are truly champions of patience.


Love to all

<3 always and forever xoxo~ Francesca

06:21 pm - Extremes
Alright well I've got some good new and bad news....I'll start with the bad so whoever reads this (aka no one but me haha) will hopefully have lost whatever distressed feeling they had from the bad news (at least I hope they'd feel because I feel it) when they read the good news. Anyway here it is:

Two more have passed and I'm starting to get scared cause this seems to be a reoccurring thing now. First of all, I want to send my sincere condolences to Micah who's dog T-Bone had to be put down. I know he's running around in the green fields of heaven with all the fire hidrens and bones that he could want, but losing a pet I know is one of the hardest things in the world. I can't bare to face the reality that one day that might be my puppy Rosie (fyi: Rosie is 12...but I still call her my puppy) Second was my great aunt's sister. She was 54 or something and died suddenly from a hemorrhage or something just like Marissa. It's not fair when someone is taken away from you like that ~ I can't understand God's reasoning behind it. We lost a really good family friend quickly from a sudden heart thing a couple years back and it still doesn't always seem real...sometimes I still think he's gonna come over again for dinner and entertain us with his crazy theatre stories that he'd launch into with insane enthusiasm. But I guess you're never ready to lose someone, like tony or my good friend's grandparents who had become like my 3rd set of grandparents. I cry for them and miss them deeply some days...but on others, I can't even fathom that they're gone. And then of course I'm always left with the question WHY?! but aren't we always...~ I guess a buddhist might say, that just the way things are. That's life. And it's true. And the truth hurts. And then I sound cliche, but whatever...I guess somethings can never be fully reconciled until youre at the pearly white gates or where ever people go...gosh I kinda hope we do go somewhere...ok that's a tirade for another time

ANYWAY! GOOD NEWS....yes that would be a good thing about now. Ok Though all these sad things have been happening, I still have managed to be pretty happy! It's kinda weird..can't really explain it. Just some really fun things have been happening in the mixed up jumble of the rest of my busy life like.......HOMECOMING! Such a fun night! There was a whole group of us there and it was just....a blast! what more can I say ~ thanks to all those who were there. Goodtimes goodtimes and it's little things like that, just spending quality time with friends, GOOD friends, ones that make me happy, that are always there for me and just make me smile when I just think of them....you know who you are, even if I'm not always with them, that has been making me so happy lately ~ just kept me a float and given me hope (it's rhymes! how lame! o well)

So in conclusion...yes youre almost done, I'm surprised if you;ve stayed with me this long... thank you for those who give me hope. And please, share it with those who might be on empty right now ~ we've only got each other in this life...It's why I believe we are all here...to be with each other and to learn and grow from the experiences we share...and then as the buddhist say... we die. But while we live...and let it be for a long time...lets try to enjoy those awesome moments shall we?

Because one can never say this phrase enough: I love you. I love you. I love you.

10:59 pm - why can't I stop smiling?
I couldn't help it ~ she's so amazing and these songs just seem to fit my life perfectly right now ~ enjoy

Pale September:

Pale September, I wore the time like a dress that year
The autumn days swung soft around me, like cotton on my skin
But as the embers of the summer lost their breath and disappeared
My heart went cold and only hollow rhythms resounded from within
But then he rose, brilliant as the moon in full
And sank in the burrows of my keep
And all my armour falling down, in a pile at my feet
And my winter giving way to warm, as I'm singing him to sleep
He goes along just as a water lily
Gentle on the surface of his thoughts his body floats
Unweighted down by passion or intensity
Yet unaware of the depth upon which he coasts
And he finds a home in me
For what misfortune sows, he knows my touch will reap
And all my armour failing down, in a pile at my feet
And my winter giving way to warm, as I'm singing him to sleep
All my armour falling down, in a pile at my feet
And my winter giving way to warm, as I'm singing him to sleep

First Taste:

I lied in an early bed, thinking late thoughts
Waiting for the black to replace my blue
I do not striggle in your web because it was my aim to get caught
But daddy longlegs, I feel that I'm finally growning weary
Of waiting to be consumed by you

Give me the first taste,let it begin heaven cannot wait
Forever
Darling, just start the chase -- I'll let you win but you must
Make the endeavor

Oh, your love give me a heart contusion
Adagio breezes fill my skin with sudden red
Your hungry flirt borders intrusion
I'm building memories on things we have not said
Full is not heavy as empty, not nearly my love, not nearly my love, not nearly

Give me the first taste,let it begin heaven cannot wait
Forever
Darling, just start the chase -- I'll let you win but you must
Make the endeavor


o and I got my homecoming dress I think ~ and then another that I think I'll wear to my winter formal ~ and then two others for whatever else pops up during the holiday season ~ hey, things were on sale...why not right? hehe


btw ~ all my friends are amazing ~ u know who you are ~ I love you all more than life


And on a sadder note ~ to all those who knew marissa, my heart goes out to you all ~ I did not know her personally but I know many people close to her and any passing of a young soul will always be especially tragic ~ RIP Marissa ~ May angels lead you in


Micah: Can't wait till your back at home again ~ I know why there's one set of footprints ~ God's carrying you in these rough times ~ and I got you hand and I won't ever let go

08:18 pm - Download this song ~ I have to get the CD ~ I'm in love!
ok kids this is a great song and it fits very nicely with my life right now and I'm hooked. Check this kid out. I think he's awesome. Many people don't my have my taste in music but just try it. You can always delete if he's not for you ...or go buy the CD like I'm gonna do. His name is John Rouse. I think his story is something like he was a parking attendent or vallet guy who finally got his break. So help him along if you like him and get his CD. Anyway, here's the song...it's called Feeling No Pain...Enjoy!


Drive
In a slow right lane
Cause we got some time to kill
You know I love this time of year
And you’re a strange
Strage find
I want to take all I can from you
Just give me a sign
And I’ll be right at your side
Cause lately I’ve been feeling no pain
My heart is wide open
And somehow everything falls into place
And it’s love
Words
Words that don’t come out
If I’m confusing you
I m just hear to clear/ clean your doubts
And I’m inclined
To tell you I don’t need any room to breathe
I want to see you let out
See you let out
Sleeping on the couches baby
Lately I’ve been feeling no pain
My heart is wide open
And somehow everything falls into place
And it’s love
And lately I’ve been feeling no pain
My heart is wide open
And somehow everything falls into place
And it’s love
And it’s...love
And I will find a way
To bring the light back to your day
And I will show you
And I will show you that I can change
Cause lately I’ve been feeling no pain
My heart is wide open
And somehow everything falls into place
And it’s love
And lately I’ve been feeling no pain
My heart is wide open
And somehow everything falls into place
And it’s love
And it’s…LOVE

10:26 pm - No pics ~ I lied ~ but please read
My tears cannot do my feelings justice, but there is nothing else that comes as close, so I am left to weep.

I met some amazing people this summer at both brown and oxford, and I thought I made some really good friends. Apparently along the way I've managed to push away, annoy, or do something to cause them to feel nothing but apathy or contempt for me. At least at brown I was able to be myself, where at oxford, even after 4 weeks, I wasn't comfortable enough to act normal in my skin. Thought I would come around when I got home~didn't matter though by then. Even the one person I felt at least tried to give me a chance has given up on me.

It's funny because I love you all so much and you'll never really know it. I think everyone of you is so extraordinary. I had a really awesome time with you all. I'm sorry if I ever seemed too busy to want to talk ~ that will never be the case! Yes I am often busy but I will always find time for those of you who want it because you're all totally worth it. I don't want to be a bother either so that's why I often don't IM. I donno, i know I seem like a bubbling, blubbering idiot at the moment but if I never said anything, maybe none of you would ever know that I will care if we lose touch and it will always be a dishearting thing for me.

And again, as for my friends at brown: I want to say sorry to those I've let down, one esspecially in particular, you know who you are. This is all i have to say to that person at the moment:

...then I see you sanding there
wanting more from me
And all I can do is try
Then I see you standing there
I'm all I'll ever be
But all I can do is try
Try
All of the moments have already passed
We'll try to go back and make them last
All of the things we want each other to be
We never will be, we never will be
And that's wonderful, and that's life
And that's you, baby
This is me, baby
And we are, we are, we are, we are
Free

You are free to make a choice now. I've said my peace. If you want to keep in touch/ reconnect/ etc I'd be extactic ~ if not, I'm sorry for whatever I have done (if I have done something) and just know that I think you're awesome and I wish you the best of luck on all your future endevours (and no, I don't mean that as in fuck you, lol, I honestly mean it)
