Nothing Suits Me Like A Suit

I know what you’re thinking
What’s Barney been drinking?
That girl was smoking hot

Yes I coulda nailed her
But no it’s not a failure
‘Cuz there’s one thing she is not

Independence?

As I type this, our nation is celebrating its 62nd Independence Day, Congrats to u all!

But, take a moment to think. While you are all caught up in this patriotic fervor, and uploading "milli naghmay", texting "azadi mubarak", and hoisting the Pakistani flag from your rooftops,,, think, and question yourself, are you truly free? Are you really independent? Are you allowed to speak your mind freely, without fear of repercussions? Or are you gagged by your own "democratically elected" government? To never criticise? To tow the line, and never speak what is really in your heart? And only speak the truth in hushed voices in the privacy of your homes? Because if you do speak the truth in public, then that will be the last time you will ever speak it?

10 Things I Hate About You

Recited by Kat (Julia Styles) in 10 Things I Hate About You:

"I hate the way you talk to me, and the way you cut your hair.
I hate the way you drive my car, I hate it when you stare.
I hate your big, dumb combat boots and the way you read my mind.
I hate you so much it makes me sick — It even makes me rhyme.
I hate the way you're always right. I hate it when you lie.
I hate it when you make me laugh — Even worse when you make me cry.
I hate it that you're not around. And the fact that you don't call.
But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you — Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all."

I love this movie, and this scene is awesome! Here's the video link: Kat's Poem

Hoist the Colors

The King and his men,
stole the Queen from her bed,
and bound her in her bones.
The Seas be ours,
and by the powers,
where we will we'll roam.

Yo, ho, all hands,
Hoist the colors high.
Heave ho, thieves and beggars,
never shall we die.

What is Love?

Love is always patient and kind,
It is never jealous;
Love is never boastful nor conceited, 
It is never rude or selfish;
It does not take offense, and is not resentful;
Love takes no pleasure in other people's sins but delights in the truth;
It is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure, whatever comes...
