There’s an NFL game on tonight at 9pm. It’s the playoffs, from Denver to Paris via VPN The Patriots and the Broncos will galdiate to win a chance to be in the Super Bowl again. I used to be a big ‘pats’ fan back when Tom Brady was ‘the man.’ I’ve read it will be super cold - but these are two cold weather teams. Go Patriots, Go Seahawks! (the Seahawk game is on too late for me). “You’re SO excitable” Peter (my bf) teased. As I set out the popcorn bowls, hours early. He’s a basketball guy - but no one’s perfect. Personally speaking, basketball’s hard to watch with all of those sneakers squeaking. Speaking of games, Here are some of the best pickup lines I’ve heard lately - in a cafe across from campus, no less. (Euro-guys are such schmoozers). Here we go: You’re in med-school, Ya? Well, I hurt myself falling for you. Your pants are mirror-like, I can see myself in ‘em. If I rub you, I bet ALL of my dreams will come true You’re like Google, you’re everything I’ve been searching for. Are we in the same lab? Cause you and I’ve got chemistry. If YOU were my homework, I'd do you EVERY night “I’m pursuing a close relationship,” I say, not making direct eye contact. “Sorry,” I shrug, “it’s a closed world.” . . A song for this: Walk On By by Jonathan Butler Walk On By by Lola Young 🅴 Walk On By by Asleep at the wheel

game on
with light there is darkness, but in those rainy days, the moments that are pitch black no escape from the mind, alone. I find my voice in the static, pickup the pen, and I write.

Pickup the Pen
I want to kiss your lips someday To feel your taste in a French way Your satisfaction brings me joy My tongue is better than your toy

French kiss
There are 4 billion men And all they think that you're a 10 And all they want so many things Such as to offer you a ring Or maybe take you on vacation Where you'll receive all the temptation Or treat you well like their baby And buy you clothes or diamonds daily Your red flag is to be amazing Coz all the guys are getting crazy And all the guys are feeling blue Coz only one will stay with you I want to be the only one Who does those things all of them want I want to see you gorgeous smile My heart is broken if you cry Your heart and body are so great To meet you that day was my fate I want to have you by my side To have you one day as my bride

Your red flag
Your heart is bigger than the ocean I like to watch your gait motion The most important what you've got Is your cute face and your big ****

What you've got
Buong umaga nakapikit, Maghapong walang dilat, Magdamag na natutulog, Araw-araw 'di nagigising, Ganyan ako, Patay na... Patay na patay sa'yo~<3

His hands on my hips as he says he can pick me up and I look at him in disbelief but my eyes are daring him to try. His arms wrapped around me in a playful choke hold as I, a giggling mess, try to get away. His lips soft but fierce, are smiling  against my neck as I squeal and roll away from him and manage not to fall off the bed. His voice as he speaks and laughs and sometimes giggles is what makes me smile on the inside. His heart is trying to trust me but is unsure. His actions are very clear but he is guarded. If I didn't know him I'd think he was playing me but he is trying. Therefore, I am not giving up.

This Might hurt
Walk up to a girl Wherever you're at Whether it's a club or a flat Approach her convivially Don't state any word trivially Ask if she's the middle of the month Because she's a ten out of ten Tell her you dislike the rating system Later on. Smoothness is key

-Thinkin' 'bout Leavin'
We are a version that is dictated by ourselves, not others dictations. We write the verses of our own lives, scripting every contemplation of decisions. Never rely on the words of others to push you where you want, need to be. No one is throwing pennies into the bowl of pity, only you can rise above your failings. But you reach with each moment, sweat and reflections of when you fell down picking yourself up. Higher than when you collected back to reality, and believe when you rise above. *"We may get knocked down, but only we can raise above where we fell,* "Be brighter than the shadows others put upon you,

Shadows Others Put Upon Us
Just feel like the way you're approaching me right now doesn't reflect the way I'm trying to be perceived you know? telling me how **** I am doesn't make me feel like you see the God in me or like that's something you wish to see. Now I don't think there's a problem with being **** I embrace my femininity wholeheartedly and **** is just a pretty cool aspect that I reckon shines a light on what you think are my assets but please... See, it's hard for me to take that as a compliment. Why don't you lead me to believe there's more to YOU than what meets the eye? and although I know that you're just reflecting the view that has just met your eye oblige me by taking a moment to think before you speak. Even still nonetheless I have a solid idea as to why... Cause you see these girls on instagram and facebookin their thighs and ******* and booties for 300 likes **** girl you **** "he he thanks, boo! " don't let that crap lead you to believe I like it too I feel sorry for that girl the one who has to use her body to feel accepted in this world the girl who needs some real love but outside acts sadiddy not until she sees those likes to finally feel pretty exposing her surfaces 'cause her insides are... I digress, when you approach me that way it's not cool just as you judge me by the things I say, I judge you. and I feel you, you probably aren't even looking for all that you don't care about my God or my mind or my passions but the least you can do, stranger, is respect my personhood and get to know me just enough to gauge what might've been my reaction cause that, "hey **** is not how I want to be addressed. there's so much more to this body than what's under my dress So, blatantly, I'm unimpressed by your ability to state the obvious I'm tired of dudes looking at me like I'm crazy when I politely say, "I'd rather not be called that." Like I just dissed a blessin' Like the woman that always complains that, "men ain't nothin'.'' "I was just trying to pay you a compliment." Huh? Oh yeah, THAT'S really something. if you have any interest in me is that the best you can do? So, yeah, I know right off the bat I'm not the one for you. It's not my fault your perception has been skewed that you still haven't been schooled that this message is just now getting to you you're part of that world that's still chasing the cool using the tools that were forged for some girl whose cup isn't full And again there's nothing wrong with being told that I'm **** but I'd rather hear it from a man that already gets me and knows that not just my high heels and my dress me but the heart in my chest me and the sound of my voice my word choice, my corny jokes, my thirst for spiritual growth, my softened heart toward the weak, my intellect, my integrity--that's what makes me-me. that's what makes me **** They're one in the same, And you can't possibly know all that before you know my first name.

"Hey, sexy."--Don't call ME ****

I never mastered the grind. That won every girls affection. I guess it's really quite difficult. When you become your own deflection. Once I was that nineteen year old. Drunk and disorderly. Grinding on your back. You got bored of me. Sure its fun - for both it seems. Sometimes it's a horrid match. A silly game with an undefined winner. Sometimes it's all you need to land your catch. But as you grow you see things clearly. The smoke machined air thins and the lights begin to brighten. You see the complexity of your dilemma. You've assumed you'd get it all - what a great big error. You want the beauty you've desired night long. But you've gone about it all wrong. You want the companion most never find. But will she see it or remain blind. It seems one is possible. Where do I go to be one whole person?
