Many, many years ago...when music was somewhat good..I liked a group called Destiny's Child..you may have heard about the fact that they switched their members more times than the amount of albums they released...Id give you a run-down..but I dont have that much patience.... Anywho, in the beginning of their career, Destiny's Child were normal girls and they (as in ''they'' in their music -songs-) had boyfriends and were cool girls...a few years later..they were (again in their songs) ''Fiercely Independant''...they didnt need a  man, they were strong, intelligent and hard working. (Which is fine by me)..In fact one of their songs, during this period, was ''Independant woman part 1'' (off the Charlie's Angels Full Throttle soundtrack) and a the first verse said ''Question, tell  me what you think about me, about my own diamonds and about my own rings, only ring your celly when Im feeling lonely, when its all over, please get up and leave''. (I like Independant Women).

And now that they have broken up, Im happy that there wont be anymore songs...because one of their last singles together was a song called ''Soldier'' and if you have read my past entries..you know how much I loathe ghetto people. (Loathe may be a strong word...but its true) Anywho, This song, ''Soldier'' is completely stupid!!!! and the complete opposite to what they were about only a short while before. In short, those chicks are flippin' confused!! And the worst part is...this song was played so much in 2004 and 2005 that I know all the lyrics...I HATE THIS SONG!!

Here are the lyrics:

Destiny's Child : Soldier Lyrics
(feat. T.I. && Lil Wayne)

1st Rap: T.I
Hey
(I want a Soldier!)
The way you got it, I'm the hottest around
They'll know it when they see you rollin' impala's around
(I got a Soldier!)
Wit the top down feeling the sounds
Quakin' and vibratin' your thighs ridin' harder than guys
Wit the chrome wheels at the bottom, white leather inside
When them lames be spittin' at you tell ‘em don't even try it
To shot it wit Chelle and kick it wit Kelly or holla at B
Ya, gotta be g's you way outta your league
Please!

First Verse: Kelly (DC)

We like dem boys that be in them lac's leanin'{Leanin'}
Open their mouth their grill gleamin'{Gleamin'}
Candy paint, keep that whip clean and {Clean and}
(They always be talkin that country slang, we like)
They keep that beat that be in the back beatin'{Beatin'}
Eyes be so low from there chief {chief and}
I love how he keep my body screamin' {Screamin'}
A rude boy that's good to me, wit street credibility

Hook: DC
If his status ain't hood
I ain't checkin' for him
Betta be street if he lookin' at me
I need a soldier
That ain't scared to stand up for me
Known to carry big things
If you know what I mean
If his status ain't hood
I ain't checkin' for him
Betta be street if he looking at me
I need a soldier
That ain't scared to stand up for me
Gotta know to get dough
And he betta be street

Second Verse: Beyonce (DC)
We like dem boys up top from the BK {BK}
Know how to flip that money three ways {Three ways}
Always ridin' big on the freeway {Freeway}
(Wit that east coast slang that us country girls be like)
Low cut -- wit the deep waves {deep waves}
So quick to snatch up your Beyonce {Beyonce}
Always comin down poppin our way {Our way}
(Tellin us that country girls the kinda girl they like)

Hook: DC
If his status ain't hood
I ain't checkin' for him
Betta be street if he lookin' at me

That ain't scared to stand up for me
Known to carry big things
If you know what I mean
If his status ain't hood
I ain't checkin' for him
Betta be street if he looking at me
I need a soldier
That ain't scared to stand up for me
Gotta know to get dough
And he betta be street

Bridge: Beyonce (DC):
I know some soldiers in here (Where they at, where they at)
They wanna take care of me (Where they at)
I know some soldiers in here (Where they at, where they at)
Don't mind takin one for me (Where they at)
I know some soldiers in here (Where they at, where they at)
They wanna spend that on me (Where they at)
I know some soldiers in here (Where they at, where they at)
Wouldn't mind puttin that on me (Where they at)

2nd Rap: Lil Wayne
Hey, see cash money is a army
I'm walkin' wit purple hearts on me
You talkin' to the sargeant
Body marked up like the subway in harlem
Call him, weezy f baby, please say the baby
If you don't see me on the block I ain't tryna hide
I blend in wit the hood, i'm camouflage
Bandana tied, so mommy join my troop
Now every time she hear my name she so ..umf…

Verse 3: Michelle (DC)
I like dem boys over there they lookin' strong tonight {Strong tonight}
Just might give one the phone tonight {Phone tonight}
Homey in the dickies in my zone tonight {Zone tonight}
He don't know it might be on tonight {On tonight}
Ooh he lookin' good and he talkin' right {Talkin' right}
He the type that might change my life {Change my life}
Everytime he look at me my girls be like {Girls be like}
(That one may be the one tonight)

Hook: DC

I woke up at around 11:50 am today and I was fine. At around 5 pm or so I was neutral until just now. Now I just feel like crap. Like a minuscule thing not worthyof acknowledgement....probably not even from who you may consider the most worthless person on Earth. I honestly do believe I'm bi-polar, But I doubt doctors here can correctly diagnose it as ''Bi-polar''. I dont like doctors, especially NOT New York doctors.
 

On another somewhat better note, I have now become ''obsessed'' with France, mostly Paris (typical, I know)..and Audrey Hepburn...Couture and Fashion...oh and on the 29th..I purchased what I believe to be my first ever issue of Vogue (AHHH!!)...Charlize Theron was on the cover and a nice interview with her inside..she's my favourite actress..so I ACTUALLY had a reason to purchase it!! that is my defense!! ...I saw a documentary about Marie Antionette in Mid-August..but continually watching The Devil Wears Prada just added to the ''obsession''...I am now hoping to find a tote bag with a picture of Audrey Hepburn, I believe I saw at K-Mart (Yes..I said..K-Mart) last year..I doubt Ill find it now...If I go...I'll try Amazon.com...even though I probably wont buy it. I have also realised that I have developed what I call ''A taste for higher class things or existence''....*sigh*

“Most of the luxuries and many of the so-called comforts of life are not only not indispensable, but positive hindrances to the elevation of mankind.”
— Thoreau

There is now a folder on my page aptly titled: ''Things Im currently Obsessing about''
Here is a pic of the folders..in the folder:




In the 1930s album..its things from my favourite decade.. pics of my favourite film stars,Audrey is Audrey Hepburn,Chic are just fashion from the 1930s or so that I like,Paris is France (mostly Paris),the last 3 are pretty much obvious from their titles..Vogue are just Vogue covers from the 1930s that I like!!!!

(btw..If you cant see all the folders Im sorry)

Here is my fave cover this one is from 1937:




On yet another note..I seriously need to get my ears checked..especially my right ear..IM MORTIFIED IM GOING TO LOSE MY HEARING...Im not Beethoven....I cannot do and create great and Beautiful things while being un able to hear...:

Tot Straks,
K.S.
 
And for dramatic effect, here's one of my fave pics of Audrey:

(She was married to him in real life)
