Britney: For The Record!!!

"I sit there and I look back and I'm like, 'I'm a smart person. What the hell was I thinking?"







Britney Spears' life has been filled with speculation and scrutiny over the last few years. In "For the Record," a documentary that aired on MTV on Sunday night, the pop singer finally opened up about her life in the spotlight. "I have good days and I have bad days," she said in the special.




"Sometimes it's too much."

In the special, Spears talked about being a mom, her public breakdown and her breakups with Justin Timberlake and Kevin Federline. "For the Record" also provided a behind-the-scenes look at her return to the pop scene as she worked on promotion for her album Circus, which included video shoots for "Womanizer" and the title track.


Explaining her breakdown, Spears said that she had let the wrong people into her life. "[It was] a really bad time in my life. ... I'm not gonna sugarcoat it and say I was OK," she admitted. "Maybe I had traumatic stress. I just remember I did not want to be at home. When I was in my car, I was driving and I was going somewhere."




Despite the hard times, the singer said she tries not to let them get her down. "Normal is different for everybody," she said, later adding, "It could be a lot worse. There are people out there who have it a lot worse than I do."

She also admitted that even though her life seems hectic, what with constantly being surrounded by assistants, handlers and the paparazzi, "I choose to be a happy person. If I have a bad day, I get angry with myself."




Britney's dad, Jamie Spears, and her longtime manager, Larry Rudolph, were also featured in the documentary, as well the pop singer's mentor, Madonna. "I admire her as an artist," the Material Girl said, adding that she sees a lot of herself in the young singer.
But Spears isn't just a pop star, she's also a mother to her two sons. And they are the people in her life that help her hold onto her faith. "I see my babies and say ... you have to believe in God," she said. "How can these two babies be here without there being a God?"






At the end of the documentary, she said she hopes people understand that she's just like anybody else. "I love what I do. I love my babies," she said. "And I work really hard." She added, "It's weird. You can see the cruelest part of the world but then on the other side you see the most beautiful part; is like you go from one extreme to the next and their both worth it cause you couldn’t see one without the other. But the cruel part is dam cruel and you never forget it, But that heaven is heaven ... so it's like I've been to both places."





In order to stay on that beautiful side, Spears said she's avoiding the people and things that hurt her: "Now I try to avoid situations from the past that may threaten me. ... I go through life like a Karate Kid."

Crying


I was alright for a while
I could smile for a while
But I saw you last night
You held my hand so tight
As you stopped to say hello
Thou you wished me well
You couldn't tell
That I've been crying over you
Crying over you
And you said "so long"
Left me standing all alone
Alone and crying,crying, crying, crying

It's hard to understand
But the touch of your hand
Can start me crying

I thought that I was over you
But it's true, so true
I love you even more than I did before
But darling, what can I do?
For you don't love me
And I'll always be
Crying over you, crying over you

Yes now you're gone
And from this moment on
I'll be crying, crying, crying, crying
Yeah, crying, crying over you

Would You Please Let Me Know?


I know we haven't spoken for a while but I was just thinking about you and it kind of made me smile, there are so many things to say and I thought I could put them in a letter because it might be easier and the words might come out better.

I know I probably shouldn’t be telling you this but there are so many things I will like to know the answers to; like why did we let our love die, was it me, was it you, what did we do to kill it, did you ever loved me, was I just another one along the way, do you love someone else? I just wish I could press rewind and re-write every line of our story.I've been trying so hard to get you out of my mind in so many ways but it’s not getting any better as each day goes by. I feel lost and confused sometimes and the nights are really rough because loneliness can be your worst enemy when you have a heartbroken.

I know that you are doing fine and I really didn't mean to ramble on this again but there are so many feelings that remain since you've been gone; I guess you thought that I would put it all behind me by now but it seems there's always something right there to remind me of you like a stupid joke or something on the TV. Sometimes when I hear a song that reminds me of you I get that same old feeling and my heart just aches so badly and I wish that I could press rewind and turn back time to have you in my life again.

I still keep all of your pictures and I stare at them every now and then to try to remember how it felt when we use to be together, I try to erase the way your kisses taste but something like that cannot be forgotten that easily, they way that you used to touch me, look at me, your smell, your scent, your skin and those eyes that I could stare for hours and get lost in them.
Now that you’re gone waking up is hard to do and sleeping's impossible too, everything I do and everywhere I go it reminds me of you, it’s harder everyday and I feel like I've lost my equilibrium, my pride and my life because you took all that was left of me.
Why did you heal my heart when it was wounded, why did you fill it up when it was empty, why did you bring me back to life if you were going to kill me again?

Yes indeed, I'm alone again and here comes emptiness crashing on me. So now it's just another lonely day and I wish there was something that I could say or do to make you come back to me, I can resist anything but the temptation from you. Yesterday seems like a lifetime ago, because I held you so close in my heart and now you grow further from me with every fallen tear of my eyes.

I guess that now is too late to realize our mistake we're just not right for each other. Love has slipped away, left us only as friends and we almost seem like strangers, all that's left between us are the memories we shared of times we cared for each other. There's nothing left to do but go our separate ways and pick up all the pieces left behind us and start over. It wouldn't have worked out anyway; maybe someday, somewhere along the way another love will find us. In the mean time I will keep crying for you, lying awake at night, dreaming of you and calling your name. I know is too late to drag in the past but did I disappoint you or leave a bad taste in your mouth, did I ask too much, more than a lot?

My days break and my mind aches when I think of you because I find all the words of kindness you once said and they still linger on me. There are times when all the things you said fill-up my head I can’t forget you. So please if you don't love me like I love you return the love you took from me. But if you cry at night the way I do; would you please let me know?

The truth


The truth can come in many shapes, sizes and colors it all depends on how we see it and it also can have many versions when it comes from different sources. Sometimes the truth can save an innocent life but it can also condemn someone; truth is a very difficult matter because what it actually does is that uncovers all of those secrets of it rips away our disguises and we found ourselves completely naked and vulnerable and it shows how we really are.


There’s a phrase on the Bible that says “The truth it will set you free” I never knew what that meant but now that I’m older and have a little more experience I do understand it and that’s why I want to expose myself like this and show how fragile but strong I am at the same time.

I am very adventurous and crazy at the same time and you never know where are you going to end up when you go out with me, energetic, brave, smart (about things that I like, the rest I don’t care), dynamic, I can be very selfish but no with the people I love and care about, very little patience, risk taker, passionate, romantic, idealistic, hate waiting around, inventive and with lots of courage, confident (sometimes), enthusiastic, sharp and quick-minded, fiery and warm, expressive, possessing, I have a string sense of urgency pretty much for everything I love (including sex), I can be self-centered at times, quick-tempered, impulsive and I take a lot of unnecessary risks.

This is who I really am without no masks, no disguises, no cover- ups, no need for lies or pretends, with my strengths and weaknesses and I don’t feel no shame about it because the combination of all of this things together make me the person that I am and I know that being the outcast that I am makes me happy.
Do you think you can handle it? …

Won’t Let It Die!!!



I’ve been going through a lot of changes lately and also through some rough times and all of those things combined got me thinking a lot and I find myself in a controversy because it all got me very confused and skeptical about love.


I’m known for always being a dreamer, someone very romantic, passionate and a true believer of happy endings. Life has given me the opportunity of experience passion, lust, infatuation and love; on my path I met all of these great people that have taught me different things and brought happiness in my life in a way or another but as they say “Nothing In This World Is For Free”, they also took something from me: Some took my innocence, some my trust, some others my pride, my money and a only a few of them took little pieces of my heart.


Love is a very strange thing because supposedly it has nothing to do with the heart or feelings but actually from a chemical reaction of our bodies and brains; but if that’s true why does every time that we break up or someone hurts us we say that we have a heartache and we do feel a special kind of pain that cannot be compare with a physical one and that it hurts just as bad or sometimes even worse.


After so many heartaches and disappointments my illusions started to go away and I began to think that dreams were just that and that there are no happy endings only good moments as a good friend of mine said. I started to become coldhearted and build up some walls so no-one will hurt me again, but the truth is that I cannot change who I am and I am not giving up on the things that once were my strength and what motivated me to go on no matter how many times I failed. Nowadays relationships don’t last long enough or don’t work-out because of the lack of commitment and the ability of working things up, people somehow just decided to give up on what they had because they don’t want to fight for it and a soon as they find an obstacle on the road they take the one next to it that looks shorter and brighter. This kind of behavior scares me very much because soon there will be no more dreamers like me and it’s going to be just like with fairies; people will start saying that there’s no such thing as love and it’s going to drop dead in any moment and one day no-one will ever know that existed and it will be just another tale written in a book.


I don’t know who you are, where are you at, what things you like or dislike, what’s your favorite color or what’s your favorite movie but I want you to know since this very moment that I do believe in love and that I know that you are out there waiting for me and I am here waiting for you, I want you to know that I love you very much and that I know what we’ll be very happy together someday.


I am not giving up on you, on me, on us. Not going to give up on love. I’ll be here waiting for you and I hope that you’ll be waiting for me too. Live, believe, dream, enjoy and love because you never know when we will meet.

Staring at my window …



While I stare at my window and watch the rain fall down and listen to the relaxing sound of it I can’t stop thinking about everything that is outside; all of that world that I still don’t know, all of those people that I will never meet and all of the dreams that I haven’t fulfill. I never had a hard time letting people in because I tend to see the good in everyone and at least give them a chance but I have the toughest time when it comes to let someone go.
I guess that all I wanted to say is that it was good for me and I hope that it was good for you too, I Know that no matter what I’ll say it won’t change the way you feel. I know that we tried our best but sometimes love just slips out of sight and we can’t seem to find it.
There’s just one thing that I want you to know before you go, just one thing that you've got to know and is that no one will ever touch me that way that you did; I know that I’ll never be the same without you here and that I will hide myself behind my tears. I know that when it comes to love there is no guarantees, no alibis and that’s how love is supposed to be and not a re-creation of our minds. I thought that we were happy and even though “I know we could never stay together” I never gave up on hope, even though I know that you did a long time ago. I just can’t stop thinking about how it could have been if we could just start all over again?
I know it will take some time to get over you but only God knows how long. I think that as soon as my heart stops breaking, aching and anticipating one of your kisses or that one “I Love You” will slip away from your lips, I will be remembering all those good times, all of those promises we once made, all of those nights holding you close and feeling like I had heaven on earth.

Thank you for being there even when you were not, thank you for letting me love you and for all of those great memories that I will always cherish but most important thank you for trying to love me.
