Just A Way To Keep Me Busy.

A Tribute To Norma Jean.

HI!

 

Sorry I didn't post yesterday I was stuck at a horse show for SIX bloody hours then we went back for another THREE hours to have s'mores. They were the only good thing that cam out of all of it.

 

Today I want to talk about Norma Jean. Now most of you are thinking who the hellz is Norma Jean? Now if you are a big Marilyn Monroe fan like me you will know exactly who I am talking about. Norma Jean is Mailyn Monroe. Norma Jean was forced to change her name as it wasn't glamourous enough. -.-'

I came across a song a couple days ago by recomendation of my granddad. The song is called 'Candle In The Wind' by Elton John. He originally wrote the song for Norma Jean but changed it up once Princess Diana died. I truly love the song and it nearly makes me cry. I decided to post the lyrics on here and it will also count as todays poem.

Candle In The Wind

Goodbye Norma Jean
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
They crawled out of the woodwork
And they whispered into your brain
They set you on the treadmill
And they made you change your name

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did

Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid
Even when you died
Oh the press still hounded you
All the papers had to say
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude

Goodbye Norma Jean
From the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something as more than sexual
More than just our Marilyn Monroe

                          -By Elton John.

I am not a big fan of Elton John but I truly adore this song. I printed off the lyrics and put them on my bedroom wall yesterday and now everyday I will sing it also above it is a large picture of her we bought for $15.00 from my mom's friend. At RES  have decided to make a charrie called Norma Jean. I don't care if someone will call it gawd modding and yell at for it but this charrie will be one of my favourite. Here is her form:

Name: Norma Jean

Age: 20 (can change)

Gender: Female.

Birthday: June 1st

Looks: Chin length white blond hair that is curled, dark blue eyes, brown eyebrows, smooth lightly paled skin, in other words she looks exactly like Marilyn Monroe.

Past: Her mother had mental issues and sent her to live with her friend, her friend later got married and sent het the orphanage which she remaind there for two years. After two years her mothers friend came back and took her in but soon the friend shipped her off to her aunts house (The a friends aunt)

I will probably add more to it but this is just the basics. I am really sad right now and stuck on a couple things right now, so I am going to leave you all with this. Bye...
