chrome for mac
By marissa | December 14, 2009
I just quickly wanted to jot down my thoughts about Google Chrome for Mac. So far, it is pretty good. I have found it to be just a tad bit quicker then Safari and Firefox. But I think what I like most, when it comes down to it, is the fact that it is so simple. I really want to try the incognito browsing feature; it might come in handy at work. Not that anyone would browse personal sites at work or anything . . . I don’t know if I will use it for everything yet, but I do know I kinda like it.
Anyway, I say, if you have a mac, give Chrome a shot. Even if you have a PC (which we can discuss later) give it a whirl.

What you accept, is what you are.
I found this online. I don’t know who said it, but I believe it to be true.

Countdown to U2: All I Want is You
By marissa | September 12, 2009
Simple love song for today. It is one of my favorites.
You say you want
Diamonds on a ring of gold
You say you want
Your story to remain untold
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is youYou say you’ll give me
A highway with no one on it
Treasure just to look upon it
All the riches in the nightYou say you’ll give me
Eyes in a moon of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbour in the tempest
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is youYou say you want
Your love to work out right
To last with me through the nightYou say you want
Diamonds on a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow coldAll the promises we break
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is youYou
All I want is…
You
All I want is…
You
All I want is…

Countdown to U2: Stuck in a Moment You Can’t Get Out of
By marissa | September 11, 2009
This song has a lot of meaning for me. In college, I was going through a lot and this became my theme song. It is the pep talk I need every once in a while.
I’m not afraid
Of anything in this world
There’s nothing you can throw at me
That I haven’t already heard
I’m just trying to find
A decent melody
A song that I can sing
In my own companyI never thought you were a fool
But darling, look at you. Ooh.
You gotta stand up straight, carry your own weight
‘Cause tears are going nowhere babyYou’ve got to get yourself together
You’ve got stuck in a moment
And now you can’t get out of it
Don’t say that later will be better
Now you’re stuck in a moment
And you can’t get out of itI will not forsake
The colors that you bring
The nights you filled with fireworks
They left you with nothing
I am still enchanted
By the light you brought to me
I listen through your ears
Through your eyes I can seeYou are such a fool
To worry like you do.. Oh
I know it’s tough
And you can never get enough
Of what you don’t really need now
My, oh myYou’ve got to get yourself together
You’ve got stuck in a moment
And you can’t get out of it
Oh love, look at you now
You’ve got yourself stuck in a moment
And you can’t get out of it
Oh lord look at you now
You’ve got yourself stuck in a moment
And you cant gt out of itI was unconscious, half asleep
The water is warm ’til you discover how deep
I wasn’t jumping, for me it was a fall
It’s a long way down to nothing at allYou’ve got to get yourself together
You’ve got stuck in a moment
And you can’t get out of it
Don’t say that later will be better
Now you’re stuck in a moment
And you can’t get out of itAnd if the night runs over
And if the day won’t last
And if your way should falter
Along this stony passIt’s just a moment
This time will pass

Countdown to U2: Mysterous Ways
By marissa | September 10, 2009
This was the first U2 song I have a memory from. I was at the Adler Planetarium and there was a laser show to U2 music. This song was the first song played. It was awesome.
Johnny take a walk
With your sister in the moon
Let her pale light in
To fill up your room
You’ve been living underground
Eating from a can
You’ve been running away
From what you don’t understand…
LookShe’s slipping
You’re sliding down
She’ll be there
When you
hit the groundIt’s all right, it’s all right, all right
She moves in mysterious ways
It’s all right, it’s all right, all right
She moves in mysterious ways
O-o-ohJohnny take a dive
With your sister in the rain
Let her talk about the things
You can’t explain
To touch is to heal
To hurt is to steal
If you want to kiss the sky
Better learn how to kneel
On your knees boyShe’s the way – She turns the tide
She sees a man, inside the child
YeahIt’s all right, it’s all right, all right
She moves in mysterious ways
It’s all right, it’s all right, all right
She moves in mysterious ways
Love
It’s all right, it’s all right, all right
lift my days, light up my nights
LoveOne day you will look… back
And you’ll see… where
You were held… how
By this love… while
You could stand there
You could move on this moment
Follow this feelingIt’s all right, it’s all right, all right
She moves in mysterious ways
It’s all right, it’s all right, all right
She moves in mysterious ways
O-o-ohOh love
Oh love, lover
Move you
Spirit move
Baby love me
Move
Baby love me
Move you
Baby love me
Move with it
She moves with itif my days, light up my nights
