Sorry I've Been MIA...

Sorry for the big gap between posts, but some stuff came up, and yeah...this was put on the back burner. But just temporarily, because here I am, back safe and sound!


I have to go study Italian. Yaaaay. I hate Italian. It's complicated, confusing, old, not remotely similar to English, and a heck of a lot of work. I like to think that I do pretty well in school, usually without trying too much. But this class? It's kicking my ass!

Incidentally, Italian did give me one good thing at least...my name! Razza Ragazza means "Stingray Girl" in Italian. Yeah, I know it doesn't really mean much of anything...I just liked how it sounded. Get over it. While we're on the topic though, let's talk about my actual blog title/name/whatever.

I liked it at first. I got it from a Rise Against song (Ready to Fall)--what's not to like about that? I'm a very devoted Rise Against fan, so it seemed like a good fit. But now I'm thinking about it...and out of context, doesn't it kind of sound like a wedding blog title rather than whatever-I-feel-like blog title? I thought about editing it so that it has the full line (will you be my compass until forever ends?) but that didn't really sound/look much better.  Then I thought about changing it to another Rise Against song, just to be similar to how it started out, but I can't remember now what song or line it was. Maybe from the song Lanterns I could do "Hell is Not Where We're Going, Hell's Where We've Been!" but that's a little long. And mildly depressing. Not that much though, cause we're out of hell now...but anyway.

I have to go...Italian seems to be calling my name. Just about as reluctantly as I go, actually. It doesn't like being massacred as much as I don't like massacring it.
