100 Years by Five for Fighting

15 there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to choose
Hey 15, there's never a wish better than this

Haha, so many of those are true for me. But honestly, there's nothing that wrong with Starbucks except for the fact that they charge a crap load of money for a "Tall" cup of coffee, give you strange looks when you order a plain old black coffee, and they're friggen everywhere. Otherwise, they kick ass. Those people really know their drinks.
Scorpio 2005 Love Horoscope
The New Year finds you in a philosophical mode, investigating and questioning anew things you may have accepted or taken for granted for some time. Naturally, you're probing the realm of romance as well -- and in January you're having amazing realizations. There are practically cartoon light bulbs popping on over your head, illuminating your love life in most interesting ways. Share your revelations (especially on the weekend of February 18th) -- and watch as the power of your intellect heats things up (particularly at the end of March).
April brings a little less conversation and a lot more action -- call it the power of spring. Love is in the air and life is all about relationships, and you're well aware of your power to make your fantasies into reality. Don't miss an especially spectacular opportunity to do so around April 24th and again around May 23rd. If you're coupled up, you can transform and reintensify your relationship now -- and if you're single, the world had better watch out.
Some new ideas are brought into your personal romantic arena in early summertime, as well as some inspiring new people. At the same time, an old issue in your love life could revive itself, to your consternation. Don't forget to learn from the experiences of those around you, and don't forget to maintain forward motion. Your natural passion regains momentum the weekend of July 15th -- then your intuition guides you to exactly where you want to be at the beginning of August.
The summer heat sizzles long into fall for you. In mid-September, you're deeply involved in investigating some of the many mysteries of love, while October sees your desires really fired up (and for you, that's saying something). You won't accept anything halfway, nor should you. November 1st looks intense -- take advantage of it. Watch your communication, especially in romance, from November 13th through December 3rd, when Mercury retrogrades through your very own sign; little mix-ups are inevitable, but you can prevent full-blown breakdowns. Get what you want the weekend of December 16th (and don't be surprised if it comes in a strange package).
Where is your relationship heading? Get a peek at your future together with a free Romantic Compatibility Reading!
