I hail from Washington DC
and i love writing poetry
my major's English as you see
and words just seem to flow freely
So when i get the chance to write
creative is the kind i like
to say whatever comes to mind
and play with words to make the rhyme
my favorite color is just black
and i see nothing wrong with that
black is sheek and black is cool
black is beautiful and women rule! (no offense guys:))

yay black!

This is to the twinke twinke lil star tune:

She is so friendly and fun
if you needed a friend, she'd be the one
She values respect and trust
laughing hard, it is a must
Eating, drinking, being loud
is what this Jersey gals about!!!!

Nice Job!

I think the words of your jingle went along with the tune really well. I also think it covers a wide range of topics about yourself, nice job!

I'm a little shortie ...

My Jingle goes to the tune of "I'm a little teapot" Enjoy!

I'm a little shortie, about 5'1
Tough to handle, but genuine at heart.
If you get me steamed up, I'll kick and shout
but other than that, fun is what I'm all about!

Haha, the words go along

#174 On May 17, 2006 7:25am failurebydesign said,

Haha, the words go along great..but I think even the theme of the original song is a good one for you, based on your lyrics.

The rhyme scheme will pretty much create the tune.

My name is Jonas and I’m pleased to meet you.
Getting to know me you won’t rue.
I have lots of skills and talent to boot, don’t litter ‘cause I give a hoot.
There isn’t much more to say and I won’t keep you all day,
So please when you pass give me a “hi” and I’ll return the favor because
I’m not shy.

Be Gentle ....

Here's my jingle ...

This one should be sung to the tune of Copa Cabana. No groans please. Oh, it's ok. I can't hear you! (smile)

Her name is Sandy.
She likes to garden.
She sows the seeds so they will grow,
planted in the earth below.

Weeds better watch out!
She'll punch your lights out!

Flowers don't worry,
don't be in a hurry cuz she watching.

Oh! She loves to mow!

Great!

I'm usually more of a Jimmy Buffet and classic rock kinda guy during the summer, but I was listening to some old school rap earlier and went with an "urban beat."

Let me help you out if your motion is still,
Just relax cuz my crew is keepin' it real.
Come out with me and with us,
Have no worries if your night is a bust.
Status really don't matter,
Everybody get light to the pitter, the patter.
We can chill and do whatever,
I'll stop lovin' my PSU pals never.
Just get loose and drink up,
Now get ready cuz it's time for some flip cup!

I'm out of it!

#139 On May 16, 2006 6:12pm Garden Goddess said,

I didn't know what old school rap is ... how different is it from other rap? I could hear the beat in my head when I read it, though!

Flip cup .... uh oh! Guess you can tell I'm a little older than the "typical" undergrad!

the difference

#200 On May 17, 2006 12:55pm USSJ said,

Old school rap, in my opinion, is way better than most of the stuff you hear now. I'd say anything up through the mid to late 90's is where a majority of the good stuff is.

A few suggestions: House of Pain, ODB, A Tribe Called Quest...Mase, Puff Daddy (what "Sean Puffy Combs" used to go by), and Jay-Z, had some great stuff when they first started out too back in the day, so check it out if you're interested.

i'm feeling like Ahmed's avatar as i read this- it's brill. though i feel obligated to unveil my total un-hipness and admit that i had to google 'flip cup.' hey, it's been a long time since i was an undergrad...

How it got started, I really don't know.
I'm only 18 but I look like I'm 30,
I always smell good and never look derty.
Mah friends say I'm fun and I must agree,
I hope you enjoyed this jingle bout me!
