wide awake again

couldn't sleep i've been up since 3am. i have to be up at 4am anyway so i guess it's no big deal. guess i started thinking and couldn't stop. there are a lot of things that i am excited about so likely that has much to do with it.

had to go and find originals of the songs that we are going to use to make the posing routine. i'm not sure when we are doing it but next we will be going to a studio to put it all together. we are opening with the intro to the song hope by twista that is used on the coach carter soundtrack, from there the tempo changes. originally it went straight into guess who's back by rakim but my coach fell in love with this other song that he really wants to use. the beat is cool and all but i'm not really feeling the lyrics.

the song please by toni braxton he wants to use after the twista piece. toni's song lyrics include:

I know you watch all over here,
Tryna finda way to come into my situation,
But you should know this. Its all good so be cool.
Tell your girl i dont care to fight I got him locked,
and he's all mine so you should know better than
To think that you could ever put it down like i can.


now those of you who know me well, know that i always lose the man, wether someone is trying to take him from me or not. after 6 weeks the guy in question always becomes a track star and takes off faster than an olympic athlete coming out of the blocks.

why do the lyrics matter? well i know from training and from skating that i preform best to songs i like, that i identify with, i basically feed off of the songs energy.

my coach likes the song because it opens up a lot of opportunities with regards to the routine itself. we have discussed my concerns and he hopes that i can focus on the beat and not what she is saying.

oh well its only going to be about 15-20 secs of that song and then its rakim all up in yo face!!!!!!
