My Lesson plan on life

I have a wide range of courses this semester... HAHA! NOT!
I am in four, count em' FOUR, education courses plus one field education course and two normal courses. My life revolves around Massie 208! This is funny actually. The greatest thing is that I basically get to hang out with the same people all the time, and have become friends with many people.
The only thing is now that I have spent time in many well thought out and organized classes, not being in one makes me want to pull my hair out, or something like that.
I also come across people who complain about everything because they feel that they should be given special treatment "because I am in 17 credit hours...blah blah... 5 courses.... blah blah...whine whine whine..." and they show up late and make a ruckus. This is completely unacceptable, if they showed up late as a teacher what would people say. Being tardy to class and then further drawing attention to oneself shows a lack of responsibility.
Why am I ranting about this? Because I feel like it is perhaps necessary to mention the barriers in my education, the road bumps in my way to serenity. Or for no other reason, this helps me to vent, as anyone needs to do once in a while...

Lyrics... a little song and dance!

So I don't know if anyone else is really as in to this as I am but I really love to dissect and analyze music lyrics! Some people just go through the day hearing the music and never really listen to it. So I am gonna add a few songs here, and you should add the lyrics to your favorite songs, as well as maybe a reflection.
Have you ever thought of the lyrics before?
What do you think they mean?

So What lyrics

Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na Na Na

I guess i just lost my husband
I don't know where he went
So i'm gonna drink my money
I'm not gonna pay his rent (Nope)
I got a brand new attitude
And i'm gonna wear it tonight
I wanna get in trouble
I wanna start a fight

Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
I wanna start a fight
Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
I wanna start a fight

So so what?
I'm still a rock star
I got my rock moves
And i don't need you
And guess what
I'm having more fun
And now that we're done
I'm gonna show you tonight
I'm alright, I'm just fine
And you're a tool
So so what?
I am a rockstar
I got my rock moves
And i don't want you tonight

Uh, check my flow, uh

The waiter just checked my table
And gave to Jessica Simp- Shit!
I guess i'll go sit with Tom boy
At least he'll know how to hit
What if this song's on the radio
Then somebody's gonna die
I'm gonna get in trouble
My ex will start a fight

Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
He's gonna start a fight
Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
We're all gonna get in a fight!

So so what?
I'm still a rock star
I got my rock moves
And i don't need you
And guess what
I'm having more fun
And now that we're done
I'm gonna show you tonight
I'm alright, I'm just fine
And you're a tool
So so what?
I am a rock star
I got my rock moves
And i don't want you tonight

You weren't fair
You never were
You weren't all
But thats not fair
I gave you life
I gave my all
You weren't there
You let me fall

So so what?
I'm still a rock star
I got my rock moves
And i don't need you
And guess what
I'm having more fun
And now that we're done (we're done)
I'm gonna show you tonight
I'm alright(I'm alright),I'm just fine (I'm just fine)
And you're a tool
So so what?
I am a rock star
I got my rock moves
And i don't want you tonight

No No, No No
I Don't want you tonight
You weren't fair
I'm gonna show you tonight
I'm alright, I'm just fine
And you're a tool
So so what?
I am a rock star
I got my rock moves
And i don't want you tonight

Ba da da da da da

Yeah, I know it is just Pink. But that is the beauty of it! You would never guess that Pink could be this insightful, but she really is. She has the most amazing songs, if you would just listen to some of them (googe "Dear Mr. President" sometime!). It seems like maybe she is just bitching about her ex husband, but it is more than that. It can apply to everyone. So what? You don't have a man right now, but that is freaking okay because you are super F*ing awesome just the way you are. Embrace it and realize he is a loser and pond scum! I love it.
What do you think?

Welcome to In Plain English!

Writing a blog to detail some of my ventures through the exciting world of education is not something I would do out of ambition. Do not mistake me, I am passionate about the written word and about how the way something is written can actually make a reader surrender to the words. I write for two reasons:
1. I want to bring to life the piece of paper I am writing on. I want the words to breathe life into every thought that I could possibly have so that the person reading is tumbling through the same emotions I am experiencing at the time of the conception of my oh so beautiful work of art.

or
2. I am being forced to.

Guess why I am creating this blog that you are looking at today?
I have a blog, a blog which contains my personal thoughts and feelings about everything. The only people that know it exist are me, my fiance (though he knows he is better off not to read it...) and my friend Fluffy. I have not wrote in it nor checked it in over a year though...so I guess this is it.
So this is where we are, my dear reader. Somewhere between actually caring about this blog that I am being strong armed into creating, and writing things because I want to. You, my dear reader, will be getting a little of both.
I will contribute what I must in order to get the grades I desire, mindless fluff about my degree which nobody who will be reading this will probably care to read, because you are most likely in the same field as me. Along with it you will get some delicious insight into what I feel passionate about. About the stories I read, and the feelings I have about them...
Thats enough for me, I don't feel like typing anymore.
