on music

okay so on my way to drop my little brother of to school we had the radio on and we were both quietly humming to the songs we knew so well. what i didn't realize is the words i was actually singing. At the time we were humming to maroon 5 and this left me speechless. i just listened for a moment to what i was actually saying. its the cute  song that goes "i will stand in the corner in the poring rain ...and she will be loved" so i thought to myself (because i am single) what i would give for a guy like that. And I'm sure all the young girls out there have thought, "why cant i have( insert here the name of your favorite singer)?".Recently i became a fan of a very popular boy band. i actually never even winked an eye on them until i herd a song in their album that left me gasping for air, you may have herd of it Little Things by One Direction. i know i know some of you may hate their music and the mere mention of their names has you gagging . And that's okay i respect that. the thing is that all the boys in all the bands i have ever listened to, and even the lone wolfs, like the Joe Jonas, have these really sappy love songs. some that go over and beyond what you expect in reality. And this is were i see the problem.
At first i thought this is them touching their inner most girly sides, appealing to the audiences. then it hit me, and i mean hard, hard enough to sit here and write about it. Why aren't men like this any more. I want to believe that at some point in history men or women actually acted like this. the courting process might have been more romantic once. I did have a boyfriend once, when i was in 7th grade that wrote all types of poems and praised me and gave me the most insane gifts , just to see me smile. i keep those looked away in a box nowadays. But i thought all my future relationships were going to be like that. unfortunately and due to my father i broke the poor boys heart. i regret it often when i end up with a guy who cant treat me right.
Any way going back to the point, could artist who have sappy love songs really be letting out their inner charmer or is it just to attract the population? and could they really be dream guys? i mean do they live by what they sing or do they treat their girlfriends indifferent from what they use to woo all the teens out there?

There is more that meets the eye

Okay so, in the amazing world i live in there has been a change of pace. Now that i am in college i started so see what suites me best. There have been moments where i really can't decide what the heck i want to to with myself. Today and for the past few days i have the strange urge to continue writing the novel i finished on paper, on to the computer. its sort of like a self edit process. the thing is my major is not English and journalism , like i wanted it to be 3 years ago. now its as i had previously said , media editing. This is causing my brain to turn in circles and my heart to ache over the absence of one or the other in my life.
I know that even to me this sounds dramatic but in truth , i think this might be how many people feel when they make them choose an actual career. as children we all wanted maybe to be an ice skating ballerina princess doctor. i know this was my dream. And as the years passed nobody crushed my dream. so then i came to realization (around 6th grade) i couldn't be half of what i wanted to be.
Now as a young adult i realize I'm still fighting with the star that grants wishes. still wishing to be two things that are not only completely unrelated , they are sort of opposites. Also due to this hard hitting reality i remember changing my career path various time up until 11Th grade when i truly found what i was looking for (or so i thought). i am not saying I'm going to drop out or quit, never. I'm just sticking my neck out there and asking if any one of my readers has ever felt the same regardless of age or grade, although you know you can only sorta feel the same if you've felt it in the past.
 so in conclusion i want o say that does it seem reasonable that we don't know what we want to do before a certain age, i don't know ,maybe we can blame society for raising us that way . the household where we live contributes to, or dose not knowing to know just make sense if you don't think about it?

hello world

hello there, my name is Virginia the 3rd and well basically I'm hear to rant about my every day life. I don't know how many people will actually see this but in any case i guess i have to introduce my self. you already know my name, I'm quite young and barely starting to venture out into the world. i go to an art school were i plan to graduate with a bachelors degree in science. but that's just the degree, I'm actually studying to be a video editor. hoping this will open up doors to bigger and greater thing i strive to practice the many skills with which i have been blessed. With out bragging i can say that my writing skills are a stable anchor in my life. i don't know where i would be if i couldn't express my self in beautiful colorful words. They may all be black and white to some but to me they are an array of colors being transmitted threw time and space just for the person reading. i like to paint and draw and do allot of movie shooting and editing. I am proud to be the oldest daughter of eight siblings. they ,even in the tough times, have stuck by me in this adventure into something new. i am the first to be doing any of what i do. this includes college and working and everything else that is to come. To some degree i can feel the pressure of being the one to carve a path in stone but i know that my way isn't the right way all the time and that my brothers and sisters will be , someday, carving their own path.
