The Sown Shadow - Bringing you yesterday's news today!

Through the good times and the bad ones . . . every single song connects to me in some way. Say Goodbye? I pick this because it’s playing currently, but it relates to my relationships in Shadow’s Universe.

Comatose, which we all know is my favorite song, connects to just about everything. It was my crush on Jamie, represents my religious life, talks about my obsessions . . . everything. Just everything.

Forsaken . . . you have to twist it a little, but it matches my relationship with Edward. Monster is a little harder . . . because I don’t feel like a monster . . . but Lyssa does, and she’s my character. Lucy . . . oh boy. Shadow, let’s say. The dog.

Not to mention they’re so amazing . . . all the music I’d ever need. Not really diverse, cus it’s all the same band, but they’re just awesome. The Collide album is really hard rock, Comatose is beautifully rock and instrumental, and Awake follows in its footsteps. The album artwork is cryptic and cool, and they’re Christian.

Most other bands aren’t like that all.

Evanescence isn’t Christian.

Casting Crowns doensn’t have as awesome music.

Hannah Montana is too kiddy.

Carrie Underwood isn’t as much my favorite.

The Jonas Brothers just aren’t the same.

Skillet is amazing. No denying it, at least if you’re me . . . ever. I can listen to them without feeling bad because I know their music is the good kind, and they’ll always be my favorite, even when I can’t resist listening to Thnks Fr Th Mmrs or Stella over and over. They have music to match my mood - beautiful pieces in my fuzzy moods, screamoish when I’m upset like now, and just plain awesome stuff for any time like Comatose.

You can’t go wrong with Skillet.

I’m going to be very clear. I love David, and I’m going to date him. When I said that it was over because you had no soul, I meant it. While you may do your best to be a good vampire, you will never have what you once had. It’s never going to happen.

Sincerely, and no love now or ever,
Shadow.

I’m so mean . . . xP And I’ve watched The Dark Knight quite recently. The Joker kept popping into my mind today.

“You wanna know how I got these scars?”

“You got a little fight in you. I like that!”

“What happened? Did your-”

Okay, no need to bring that one up.

It’s epic. Bruce . . . poor Bruce . . . the song Lucy (by Skillet) would be perfect for him. He wants to be with Rachel (in RL, rather than in whatever Komoda calls her universe) but can’t because of Batman, he wanted to save her but ended up saving Harvey, everyone hates him, and they’ll never know how much he’s really done for them and all their hearts by letting them think he killed those innocent people.

Heyheyhey, let’s post the lyrics to Lucy. :3

Hey Lucy, I remember your name.
I left a dozen roses on your grave today.
I’m in the grass on my knees, wipe the leaves away.
I just came to talk for a while, got some things I need to say.

Now that it’s over, I just wanna hold her.
I’d give up all the world to see
That little piece of heaven looking back at me.

Now that it’s over, I just wanna hold her.
I’ve gotta live with the choices I made,
And I can’t live with myself today.

Hey Lucy, I remembered your birthday.
They said it’d bring some closure to say your name.
I know I’d do it all different if I had the chance.
But all I got are these roses to give, and they can’t help me make amends.

Now that it’s over, I just wanna hold her.
I’d give up all the world to see
That little piece of heaven looking back at me.

Now that it’s over, I just wanna hold her.
I’ve gotta live with the choices I made,
And I can’t live with myself today.

Here we are, now you’re in my arms.
I never wanted anything so bad.
Here we are, for a brand new start,
Given the life that we could’ve had.

Me and Lucy walking hand in hand,
Me and Lucy never wanna end!
Just another moment in your eyes.
I’ll see you in another life, in heaven!
Where we never say goodbye!

Now that it’s over, I just wanna hold her.
I’d give up all the world to see
That little piece of heaven looking back at me.

Now that it’s over, I just wanna hold her.
I’ve gotta live with the choices I made,
And I can’t live with myself today.

Here we are, now you’re in my arms.
Here we are, for a brand new start.
I gotta live with the choices I made,
And I can’t live with myself today.

Me and Lucy walking hand in hand, (today!)
Me and Lucy never wanna end!
I gotta live with the choices I made,
And I can’t live with myself . . . today.

Hey Lucy, I remember your name.

*sniffle* Aww. Poor MC. That song is amazing. The “now that it’s over” lines have a lame tune, but everything else about the song . . . it’s totally wow. So sad and sweet, and the music is great. Skillet ftw.

Seriously! That’d be his song!

The one thing I was hoping for was that the joy of Christmas would last longer. But it didn’t . . . everything utterly ended today.

It went about 36% my way. *sigh*

Firstly, mom decided to rant idiotically at everyone when we got out the door because she’d wanted us to leave thirty-five minutes earlier. We had to go out forty-five minutes away for Church because of my cousin’s baptism afterwards. So she spent a ton of time yelling first at dad for not doing more to get everyone out and for not making the car start faster, then the rest of us for not getting out sooner, and declaring that the computers were off for the rest of the day.

She just proved herself, once again, to be a female dog. I refuse to call her what Jacob is, because she does not deserve that. Because not only did we get to Church on time, but everyone ended up using the computers anyway.

Then there was the baptism and party afterwards afterwards. They weren’t so bad . . . but I didn’t really like having to take the time to go to it.

Then later . . . everything crashed. We got back and the other kids got mad at each other because they all wanted to be using the Wii. So I got on the computer and took care of my Twig stuff, but got kicked off because Zach’s insisting that he be allowed on reminded the dog that we weren’t supposed to be on. So she ordered me off, and guess what? Zach gets on. xP Oh well, I didn’t care. I was doing my best to remain in a good, calm mood.

Then, when I was using the Wii, I first of all had to spend all the time with someone. First Bella and Zach played Rock Band 2 and then Wii Fit with me, with constant arguing and fighting between Bella and Zach because they were annoying each other and finally idioticness by Zach in bugging and disrespecting the both of us that got him grounded from the Wii for the week, and then I had to play Rock Band 2 with Gri though I didn’t want to because I was trying to make a sacrifice for him for his birthday.

So, it’s epic. Way better than the first. But the problem is that you leave a song after it’s started, you lose fans. So the dog was telling us to get off, and I asked her - the plural is very certain and important - if we could finish the songs. She said, “Go ahead and finish the song,” without a plural, but I’m just like whatever and we go to finish up the remaining songs in the setlist.

Well, after one had finished, she got mad at us and grounded us from the Wii for tomorrow because she kept playing. The dog insisted that I had said song without a plural, being all hypcritical about once saying how people would know what they said themselves, not other people (funny how she happens to support everyone but me in these issues), so concluded by deciding that I’d lied to her, ‘peeved’ her off, and had taken advantage of her not paying attention.

She wouldn’t even hear reason. I tried explaining to her, but she kept insisting I’d said it without a plural, that I was wrong, being a jerk . . . I’m sick of this. I’d love to become Lyssa right about now, because she gets David. I won’t have him after a while, and I have nobody real even though sometimes things are just as bad for me as they are for Lyssa.

The dog hates me.

Then we got sent to put our pajamas on and brush our teeth, and she tried to guilt-trip me for not having brushed my teeth when called up for prayertime, insisting that I would’ve had time for it if I hadn’t kept playing Rock Band 2, though I yet again tried to explain.

Both explanations were very calm, just for the record. Calm voice, calm expression, that’s it.

Stupid PMSing pregnant freak.

I know what I’ll do to her in Sims . . . move Gri and Shadow out of the house, and make her fail. >.> Kill her if I can, but otherwise just make her quit her job, eat food all day, and become a hobo on the streets by the time she’s an elder. A fat hobo.

Or I’ll at least make Shadow hate her. She can come when Shadow marries Ethan, but Shadow’s going to hate the living daylights out of that dog.

Just as I enjoy doing in real life.

And I shall be on the Wii tomorow. After all, it’s mandatory for me to get forty-five minutes of aerobic exercise every day.

Though, the time is screwed up. If I really take as long as I’m supposed to for everything, there’s no possible way I’ll end up finishing everything every day. It’s only fair that I should take more time on the things I enjoy to start with, though.

There’s so much I’m still learning about! Like, whether other families will show up in the game if I just make them without doing anything else, and so much I haven’t done, and so much I’m in the middle of accomplishing!

The dog has a job as a cook, and she’s doing awesomely. She’s still a chubby freak who gets mad at everything, but absolutely everything else about her is unrealistic. She’d never throw us a party of her own accord, or spend her free time making sure the house is clean.

Gri grew up before I did for some reason . . . he’s friends with this River McIrish person, who his mom hates, and I’m trying to get them to be romantically interested with each other. They hang out a lot at the least. His lifetime goal is to have twenty total friends.

Shadow’s ‘romantic interest’ is Ethan Bunch. They started cuddling on the couch at Gri’s birthday party, and then kissed. Not sure if that would translate as being bf and gf, cus it just says romantic interest in their relationship status, but they like each other that much at least! My goal is to get them married. x3 Shadow grew up two days after Gri . . . she met with Ethan at the beach one day, only to find that he refused to be with her anymore because he was now an adult and she wasn’t. So she was quick to have her own birthday party and grow up. Happy ending!

(Seriously, you can’t do anything romantic to people who aren’t in your same age group. xP)

And her lifetime goal is Golden Tongue, Golden Fingers. Like, she has to learn to play a guitar and then do it to get friends or something like that.

I also wanna get somebody to the point where they can grow cheese and eggs in the garden, and make a klepto go to the graveyard and steal the remains of a male sim and as a result have a ghost show up at her house every other night and become best friends with the ghost at which point she will express affection for it and they’ll go into a certain room and later the girl will have a ghost baby. :oooo It sounds so cool, doesn’t it?

And I wanna start collecting stuff. Like bugs and rocks. Cus my sims haven’t had the time for that. xP Stupid baths that take an hour and toilet breaks of half an hour and walking across the room in a timespan of five minutes.

But the game is amazing, and definitely meets up to my hopes so far. x3 Especially the romancey stuff so far, because the dog can’t make me stop kissing Ethan.
