"Chócomataco" by Riley Nix

From high school spanish my sophomore year, I think.


Chócomataco vive en la ciudad en un arbol
Ella come frutas y vegetales y algunos carne,
pero...
Chócomataco favorita comida es tacos!
Ella raja diccionarios en dos.

"For you, I care" by Riley Nix

Thursday, 22 March 2007
When I look at you across the room
At church it doesn't seem so bad.
And then I think of your smile,
The rest just fades away.
It's like the rest doesn't matter anymore.
I can't help but to smile back
Even though it was the whole reason I looked.
Your look calms me down
Slows me to a stop
For a second all is still.
You matter most
And I get the joy to see it.
Goodbye I'm forced to say each time
When my heart screams not to do so.
You're the world to a lot of people
Dont' let the facade fool you.
I always hope for our next moment to share
Yes you are the one of whom I care.

"I'm giving in. You win." by Riley Nix

My heart is racing.
My head is spinning.
I am about to burst out in tears.
I want to get up and run till I collapse.
I'm tired of caring so much always to get nothing in return.
To feel washed up, used up.
And no one cares.
Seriously I just dont know what to do
I hate to be sad or feel mad over this
But I am through pretending it's not bothering me.
I'm giving in. You win.

"Miss the taste of wanting you?" by Riley Nix

"...They'll miss the taste of wanting you, Call out your name like I still do..."
-Matt Nathanson


My eyes are clouded with pain.
My heart hurts it's so low in my chest.
Why do I let everything cut me so deep?
My head throbs from holding back tears.
I'm that sad lonely shade of blue even when I'm happy.
I don't know why you got to me
Or why I shiver with the fear of losing you.
I know you'll be alright
But that's not what the world shows my eyes.

Ten Rules for Being Human by Cherie Carter-ScottShare

Found this and thought it was worth a little chuckle..


1. You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it's yours to keep for the entire period.


2. You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called, "life."


3. There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial, error, and experimentation. The "failed" experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiments that ultimately "work."

4. Lessons are repeated until they are learned. A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it, you can go on to the next lesson.

5. Learning lessons does not end. There's no part of life that doesn't contain its lessons. If you're alive, that means there are still lessons to be learned.

6. "There" is no better a place than "here." When your "there" has become a "here", you will simply obtain another "there" that will again look better than "here."


7. Other people are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or hate about yourself.


8. What you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need. What you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.

9. Your answers lie within you. The answers to life's questions lie within you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust.

10. You will forget all this.
