Scars

Scars (06/14/11)
Jenny Chan

I know I'm not perfect
I'm not some model in some magazine
I know it's not worth it
To try to become someone else and not be me
We all have some things
We don't love about ourselves
But then we look into ourselves and realize
We wouldn't wanna be anybody eles

ChorusWe all have our scars
We've all been burnt
We all have our ways
We've all been hurt
Things are said that aren't meant
We've all been misled
That leaves us with
Our scars

With your friends around
Teasing you all day
Saying you aren't good enough for them
And that you should change your ways
Step back, relax, and enjoy yourself in your beautiful ways
If they are your friends, they wouldn't be so mean, you see?
Cause you're special in a different way

Repeat Chorus

When you look into a mirror
Finding someone really strange
Is it that you see
Strange has become the new perfect
You know you're perfect in many ways

Chorus 
We all have had our scars
We've all been hurt in some way
Our friends say things
That they don't want
We've all been hurt
We're left with our scars

We've all been broken until it hurts
That leaves us with our scars

Live My Dream

Live My Dream
By Jenny Chan
03.22.09

Why am I just an ordinary girl?
Living in a crazy world
Don’t wanna be the one
Who always is shy?
I don’t wanna be the one who’s not recognized
This ain't my day
I wanna go my own way

Chorus

I just wanna live my dream
Like it always seemed to be
Wanna rock out and stay, and party out
And never have a bedtime
Just wanna go my own way
And have my dream-day
Wanna be cool
Don't have to worry 'bout school
Don’t hafta be cool
Don’t wanna always stay in school
But it just so hard
To be a part of something I’ve always dreamt of
I’ve had enough!
I wanna be like Hannah
And live a double life
As a schoolgirl, but also in a differtnt world

Repeat Chorus

Don’t wanna be the girl always laughed at
Or the girl always being teased
Just wanna be a girl
Just an ordinary little girl
Wanna be everything that I can be
Don’t hafta be fabulous, don’t need much bling
Don’t really need everything
Don’t need to be cool to stay in school
Wanna be a girl...
Just an ordinary little girl
Wanna be everything I can be
Don’t hafta be fabulous
Don’t really need everything
But I can start
My own life
But don’t have to
Don’t need to be cool
To stay in school
Just like an ordinary person
Just a buncha friends
Is all you need
To keep you company

Chorus #2
Just wanna live dream
Cuz it’s always seemed to be
Just rock on and party on!
Just going my own ways

I've always wanted to be in theatre arts
And take a part
I’m always so shy
At home, I sing my heart out
But out there I don’t spout
I can't, but I wanna
I just big wannabe
A big wanna-be...

Chorus #2

I've always wanted to do this
Don’t wanna miss this I'm just letting my heart out
And SHOUT!
This is real ME.

I wrote this a long time ago (12?), so it's not that great. 

Free


Free
By Jenny Chan
01.25.09

I’m not made out of rubber
I'm not that flexible
Sometimes I suffer
From all the difficult times that I had
It drives me all mad
To think that I live in a cage
I just wanna be set free

Chorus
I wanna live by myself, on my own
Livin’ on my own
And wanna be free (be free)
Free (be free)
I want everything please
Just joking
Haha...

I wanna be free, and live on my won

Why is it always me?
Who doesn't get what they want
I wanna be famous
Live my dream, live by myself

Repeat Chorus

Why do I always hafta be followed?
Why do I hafta have someone to make sure I do work?
I'm under a lotta stress
My whole world's a mess

Chorus
And I just wanna be free, do anything I want
Wherever I want
Just being free
Makes me so much happier now
Now that I'm free

I had a chance
And so I took the chance
To start all over again
I may not be cool
Just gotta stay in school

To be free
I can express who I really am now!

Just For You


Just For You
Pretty in pink, she’s not who you think
You don’t like her, you like me
She’s just a puppet, you’re the puppeteer
Controlling her strings, trying even harder
She’s not your girl; I am your girl.
Look at me, wait can you even see?
Me with my glasses, or are you too blind to ask me?
Don’t know if you really like her
Or is she just a fake?
To make me break
Is that your aim?
Not sure if I’ll like you then
When you’re just playing pretend
When you’re done with her
Will you run back to me?
Is this reality?
Do I still want you?
Or are you just being cool?
I don’t know anymore
You’re just some stranger

A Moment Like This?

Well, I've been wanting to talk to him for FOREVER, and I finally did. Well, sorta. It was about homework though. It was about our Physics Lab that none of us understood how to do. So here's how it started:
I started by asking him if he had finished the lab yet. He said no, he was still in need of data from his friend. Then wait a couple minutes, he asks me if he could borrow my data. So then I gave it to him and that was it. Well, maybe I asked him a couple questions here and there and that was it. But you know the feeling when you talk to the guy you like for like five minutes? It just seems like the longest five minutes ever?
here's the convo anyways. if you thought i'd give out his name, you're wrong. i won't reveal his name. :D

The stuff in the parentheses are random thoughts I had.

me: hey sorry to bother u 
do you get how to do the physics lab?
    him: im still waiting for my friends data
    me:=.=
      him: or an i just ur data for speed of sound lab (okay this line makes no sense. but since i'm asian, i understand.)
        me: haha ok
      but it might be werong
      me and my firned still tryna figure out
      anytways...
      523.2 Hz --- 2.48 or 2.98 cm (cant read my writing)
      392 Hz ---- 2.45 cm
        him: ok
      ty
        me: mhm
      perchance did u get the tube length?
      lol bad english.. did u find the tube length (like did u record it)
      him: nop
      lol
        me: fuuu
      ok me assume its 20 again
      can u tell me the percent error u got for the velocity when u et a chance? thkx
      sorry again
      for the refraction lab was ur index greater than 1?
      him: ye (uhhh...)
      both
      greater than 1
        me: ok just making sure
        him: something like 1.4 ~~~
          me: i dont need the number cuz i got confused...
            him: ok

I Don't Really Understand It

I never really understand why guys give girls chocolate or flowers and wear suits. Is that supposed to make them look better? Honestly, I don't really like guys in suits. I think it makes them look weird, in some exceptions. But, generally, yes. I like guys who wear plaid better. I think that they look so adorable in them! Why is it that guys look so cute when they wear plaid, when girls look weird? I like wearing plaid, just that it makes me look tacky. And they also look cute when they're carrying something, like a jacket? I saw him do it once, so I know. But when girls do it, they look kinda clumsy. And guys with accents! Oh my gosh! Dreamy! But girls with accents, mehh. Cody Simpson!! <3

So yeah...

But when girls, especially Asian girls do something cute like the typical Asian peace sign, they look cute. But when guys do it, mehh. Even Asian guys, mehh.

I Don't Get It

facts within a message are back!

i Just hate it when guys play games with yoU.
he Still likes me. i know iT. i can see iT when he looks at mE. he's stiLl in my chinese class. and she's in there too. and he still sneaks gLances at Me. so why doesn't he just brEak up with her? probably cause he likes her. but The way that i see it, He doesn't rEally like her That much. i can sense it. i dunno. i just can.
i puRposely sit where i tUrn my back to him cause i can't bear To see his lovey-dovey-ness with Her. i still like him too? i was kinda pulled into his trap of love and i can't get out. i wish i could.
