			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For the past 3 years I&#8217;ve been pushing people away, alienating myself, when I&#8217;m really not that type of person. I&#8217;ve been awake for too long now &#8211; atleast I think and hope so &#8211; and I&#8217;m beggining to think that I want to dream again, but more in a hypnotic state than to actually fall asleep.</p>
<p>Since my computer&#8217;s been bitching and I haven&#8217;t been posting, I thought it would be great to share with you my recent &amp; only downoads to start the new year. Since everythings just a phase, try to guess where I&#8217;m going here. Some of the old, some of the new. I had to keep some of the shallow subliminal stuff on there.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is it, today will be the first most refreshing day of the year. I am cleaning out my room.</p>
<p><span style="color:#333333;">I&#8217;ve always been the hoarder-type. I understand being stubborn and saying that I can&#8217;t let go of my clothes, but, not letting go of past-memory filled paper that I don&#8217;t even pay attention to &#8211; that&#8217;s when you know it&#8217;s a problem. This might be just another lousy loser-girl story, however this is a real situation. Which is why I&#8217;m taking the time to tell whoever you are about it.</span></p>
<p>Since I spend most of my time in my bedroom, I really should take care of it best. I have so much clothes &#8216;I promise to rock or fit in one day&#8217; and junk that I want to keep &#8216;for rememberance&#8217;. More of weight from the past if you really think about it&#8230; I&#8217;ve realized how much all this junk is slowing me down and affecting my present life. I would tell myself &#8220;I only keep this to remind me how happy I once was&#8221;. Being the only happiness I know, I won&#8217;t really ever know what kind of happiness it is I want today, right? Sometimes I give up looking for something to wear. Material girl problems.</p>
<p>I cleaned all day, and I feel pretty damn good about it. Sure you can keep things to remember some people and the relationship you&#8217;ve had with them, but that won&#8217;t make them like you any more.</p>
<p>You&#8217;d be surprised how small my room is for a girl looking like me.</p>

<p>It&#8217;s been a long while since I&#8217;ve posted anything here. To sum it all up, (I don&#8217;t know what&#8217;s the last thing you&#8217;ve heard of me) I&#8217;m woking @ a spa/salon, looking for a second job. I&#8217;m half way through my esthetics program, taking massotherapy in september. This semester I&#8217;m doing make-up and mani/pedi <img src='http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  So exciting. MMMMM, I still smoke herb. Cutting down on my cigarettes.. My resolution this year is to simply stay positive, get out of the water.</p>
<p>2011 is the first year I gave my family gifts and I&#8217;m sure damn proud of myself, I hoped that time ould come.<br />
Anyways, I added dye to my hair. And I currently cut it, and I regret it with a passion -_- but it&#8217;ll grow out&#8230; &lt;/3 by the summer I hope :s</p>

<blockquote><p>&#8220;My music mainly speaks of the frustration of a capitalist system that preys on a youth’s naïve innocence.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Rainy day, smoking a cigarette &amp; a guy comes up to me to promote his album. The first thing he asked was if I listened to Hip-Hop. Local artist, got a little free skit, already I knew I couldn&#8217;t turn this guy down. </p>
<p>Raised in our very own &#8220;Real City&#8221;, Sham Art&#8217;s old-school flow includes a raw underground lyric. Also known as photographer and verbal strategist, Shams first album Street-Tape is being released in the streets &amp; online. The album was produced and recorded by Beat Licka D.G.E. (Don’t Give Entertainment). Currently he&#8217;s working on his next EP which will hopefully be out before 2012.</p>

<p>“It’s me against hell yet I don’t believe in heaven, Only time will tell but I’m no better than the rest of them, I keep questioning? Where do I belong? As I roam beyond the hard and the strong!”<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>by Desiree Villegas<br />
<img src="http://aphrodesire.files.wordpress.com/2011/10/k5lad-a1.jpg?w=623&#038;h=440" alt="come on mayn" width="623" height="440"></p>
<p>See it&#8217;s true when people say that it&#8217;s hard to quit, it&#8217;s hard to Quit with old habits.<br />
old BAD habits to be exact, so hard infact,  that sometimes I&#8217;d decide to quit &#8211; living.<br />
Taking chances at life, it&#8217;s an unfortunate fear, but I remind myself that fear is a lie.<br />
Now listen up &amp; pay attention, might even wanna take notes<br />
Procrastonators and hypocrits you’re either one of them or both.<br />
To be or not to be,<br />
in this roller coaster love with weak individuals like me,<br />
My heart longs for inner peace but the hate longs for my heart,<br />
It&#8217;s sad that the beauty of differences is what tears us apart.<br />
I got the devil on my shoulder, the lord is my witness.<br />
wish my moment in Purgatory (purgatry) would now come in a second.<br />
Cause just like Dante in this hell my hope relies with the demons.<br />
I&#8217;m Devi Shakti, believer in the force who destroys all fear.<br />
The life energy that allows you to see, that lets you feel, that lets you think &#8211; living in all beings in a form of power.<br />
The wife of the destroyer, ashamed about the darkness that my nature reflects.<br />
hex after hex when I heal I pray &#8220;Dear Lord What&#8217;s next&#8221;.<br />
See can rock with my scars &gt;  i mean the words that liars use to conclude.<br />
Ruled by the blindfolds of their fake-ass ego, man it&#8217;s a shame, oh, that you can suck as good as a lame-hoe.<br />
Theres so much pain in my heart and so much heart in my pain.<br />
Why does the world stress out so much about making it rain.<br />
Truth be told though, they dont<br />
Like they enjoy talking shit and being hated on, but they don&#8217;t -<br />
know that they are slaves to a poor demons rage<br />
just like my state right now and man I won&#8217;t lie, J&#8217;AI PAS HONTE.<br />
Yea I know, I know.. but shit i know I&#8217;ll release it.<br />
It&#8217;s just another chain to a smaller chain, the only key to them is patience.<br />
We all live in different times, in different circles of hell<br />
Some need pain to beat pain, the beauty of it all makes me dwell<br />
Life is the best teacher, my only will is to learn to clear the path that I know is there.<br />
False ideas lead to visions like how love can lead to treason<br />
you might not know that yet, but we can laugh about it when I see you past the neverworld with satan.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>&#8220;It is a great day for America and the world&#8221; &#8220;The biggest piece of news since 9/11&#8243;</em></p>
<p><strong>The media spin following the &#8220;event&#8221; was artificially inflated, exaggerated and glorified. Should the death of a man cause happiness and celebrations? Since when have we devolved into such a barbaric state?</strong></p>
<p>We&#8217;re living in an era of artificial, fully staged, media-generated events. We&#8217;ve all been played. &#8220;The most magical time of the year&#8221; was launched by the Royal Wedding.</p>
<p>May 1st, or May Day, is considered by several cultures to be an important holiday, especially in occult circles due to celestial alignments. In fact, the Order of the Bavarian Illuminati was founded on May 1st, 1776. In Europe, it is called the Beltane Fire festival, an ancient Gaelic celebration of sexuality, fertility and blood sacrifices. The origines of this festival is traced back to the celebration of the Sumerian God Enlil (a.k.a Baal). Supposedly, animal sacrifices would be made to ensure the fertility of crops, however, every five years the Highland Celts would sacrifice humans.<br />

<blockquote><p>&#8220;In Middle-Eastern lore, Baal was killed and descended into the underworld, whereupon he was returned to life by the powers of his sister-lover, Anat. Baal is thus associated with the seasonal cycles and the coming on spring crops.<br />
This is reflected in Beltane festivals, which culminated with the symbolic marriage of the Winter God and Spring Goddess (King Winter &amp; Queen May). Queen May is a mother earth figure. The word Baal means lord or husband. In the mating of this King and Queen, earth and sky were joined, and fertility and life were symbolically rekindled in animals, people, and nature.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>- Jane Adams, The Selected Papers of Jane Adams</p>
<p>Through analogy and belief, one can control or aid the powers of nature by the practice of magic, particularly sympathetic magic. Sexuality might characterize part of the cult. Pst-Exilic allusions to the cult of Baal Pe&#8217;or suggest that orgies prevailed.<br />

<p>Ancient beliefs and rituals are an intricate part of today&#8217;s Illuminati occult practices. As their symbolism and modus-operandi are slowly infused into society, their previously secret rituals are now conducted on a mass scale.</p>

<p>Montreal-based art initiative EN MASSE is best described as an ongoing exercise. They&#8217;re recognised for their improvised collaborative drawing in high and lowbrow culture, pop imagery fragmented in a spontaneous, multi-genre, black-on-white collision.</p>
<p>Since 2009, under the direction of <strong>Jason Botkin </strong>and <strong>Rupert Bottenberg</strong>, the project (mistaken as a “collective” of artists) has worked with nearly 80 artists to date. The lifeblood of this initiative is these individuals, whose diverse voices — grounded in the realms of commercial graphics, underground comics, graffiti, and fine art — weave together to build a collective vision, greater than any could create on their own.</p>
<p>Unfortunately their work is often excluded from mainstream galleries, museums, and funding agencies. Likewise, It offers an unthreatening approach to contemporary art that is refreshing, engaging and even exciting to the general public. EN MASSE has created signature works in association with the <em>Osheaga Festival of Arts and Music</em>, <em>Piknic Électronik</em>, <em>Festival International Montréal en Art</em>, <em>Under Pressure, Manifesto (Toronto), Cirque du Soleil, and Sid Lee.</em> <strong>Early November 2011 will see an unprecedented installation at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts.</strong> WOOH!</p>
<p>So, check them out, meet them, maybe watch live drawings, it&#8217;s amazing.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Look at it this way&#8230;</p>
<p>It is a <strong>FACT</strong> that, most often, <strong>people judge by what they see</strong>. Therefore, this aspect of human personality is of outmost importance. The first impression is the most significant one, and is generally quite accurate.</p>
<p><strong>The average person has neither he time nor the inclination to probe for hidden qualities under a slovenly exterior</strong>. Physical traits are far more readily appreciated than intellectual and moral ones. There can be no doubt that the right hairdo, make-up and elegant clothing give a better impression. Beauty and its visible manifestations, even if artificial, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">facilitate communication with people</span>.</p>
<p><strong>Emotional well-being</strong> &amp; the <strong>material aspects</strong> of life are closely interrelated. When we look beautiful, we feel beautiful. A woman who finds her appearance pleasing is uplifted, feels happy and optimistic. Her outer glow reflects her inner warmth. At the opposite end of the spectrum, an unsightly face can cause as much damage as a genuine sickness.</p>
<p>A few corrections on one&#8217;s appearance automatically improve morale. Hidden qualities can come to surface. Today, we meet many more people than before. The moderne woman, as opposed to previous generations who rarely ventured unescorted, also participates in a great number of outside activities.</p>
<p>We are constantly exposed to the influence of the media [...] This constant exposure to beauty acts as a tremendous motivation for women to strive to be as beautiful. They try to discard their inferiority complexes, and emphasize the good aspects of their appearance.</p>
<p>This striving for beauty, although deserving of every encouragement, must remain within reason. After all, our aim is not to be a pale imitation of a film star. We want to be ourselves. What the woman wants is inspiration.</p>
