You told me I wouldn\'t......
« on: January 31, 2005, 03:51:00 PM »
You told me I wouldn't survive, I am alive, breathing, and happy.
You told me I would never have anything, I make lots more money than you assholes that "helped" me.
You told me I was nothing but a slut, I have respect from EVERY man who comes in contact with me.
You told me I wouldn't have love, I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy who holds me #1 in his life.
You told me I wouldn't have anything to give, I am involved with many NON-PROFIT organizations to take kids off the streets.
You told me I would fuck up, and I did, but got back up and used my PAST for KNOWLEDGE not GUILT!
You told me that no one in the world would care if I died, I think you were referring to yourself.
You told me I wouldn't have my dreams, as a singer I continue to work in studios and as a business-woman I am on the top.
You told me that I wouldn't use what I learned from BCA ('97-'99), I think that was the ONLY thing that your damn staff had to say about me that was true!  
 :wave: Hey everyone!  Just ask me and I will let you know who this is.  For the people out of the program, STOP LETTING THEM RUN YOU.  If you are still affected by what happened I don't blame you, but it is time to get on your feet and do something for your life, for your own sake.  They don't care how and who they hurt, but you are STILL hurting. The only person who can help at this point is you. If you need someone to talk to, please feel free to post on here and I will check this. But there is life after CEDU!  I promise!  For the people in the program, just be strong with who YOU know YOURSELF TO BE.  No one can take that away, regardless of what they do!

I could be mean
I could be angry
You know I could be just like you

I could be fake
I could be stupid
You know I could be just like you

You thought you were standing beside me
You were only in my way
You?re wrong if you think that I?ll be just like you

You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You?re wrong if you think that I?ll be just like you
You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You?re wrong if you think that I?ll be just like you

I could be cold
I could be ruthless
You know I could be just like you

I could be weak
I could be senseless
You know I could be just like you

You thought you were standing beside me
You were only in my way
You?re wrong if you think that I?ll be just like you

You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You?re wrong if you think that I?ll be just like you
You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You?re wrong if you think that I?ll be just like you

On my own, cause I can?t take liven with you
I?m alone, so I won?t turn out like you
Want me to

hmm.. im trying to think of who you are, but i cant come up with anything.

anyhow, my opinion about cedu changes over time, and there isnt a day that goes by that I dont think about my time in N. Idaho at least once. Its like, there were alot of cool people there (and alot of dumbasses) that I would have never met otherwise, and thats all well and good, but at the same time I cant help but think about how different my life would have been if I had never been there. I know everyone who went to and especially those who graduated from a CEDU program knows exactly what im talking about.

Its good to hear you got into singing. I got into playing drums after I got out, and I think thats because making music can be an emotional release which is what I did day in and day out from Dec 96 to June 99.

I could go on and on... anyhow, who are you? :grin:

Oh my, no! That's a pop song by Three Days Grace. Every time I hear it I think it was written just for Program kids.

What an incredibly rude, hostile, mean spirited and ill manored thing to say to a lady! Is that how your mother raised you to behave?

No it's ok Antigen...Not all people can have class enough to  not put things together in their head how THEY want them to be.  Let people say whatever they want to say...just one question for you though...Do YOU feel better about yourself?!

OIC,
  Ya' know, I still enjoy this. That little exchange was just so much like so many hundreds of group confrontations and come-down raps that I sat through at Straight. Not only could you not voice any dissent or try to defent the person being verbally torn up, but you had to pretend you agreed. And you'd better damned well be convincing or else!

So I still enjoy taking the opportunity to talk back when it arises. I sure do feel better! LOL

Oh no, I would've gone crazy sitting in those boring ass raps if I couldn't bring a little controversy to it by defending whoever was being lit into. Even if I didn't agree, it was almost a code we had among friends that if one of us was getting torn a new one, the rest would step in and deflect the flak - most of the time, it would end up shifting the staff (or the occasional look good student)'s attention from person to person until 2 hours had gone by and no one knew what the hell had just happened.
