The brick walls are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something. Because the brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want it badly enough.
-Randy Pausch’s Last Lecture

The way I see it, you have to take every chance you get because there might not be another one.  you have to learn from your mistakes because nobodys perfect.  you have to laugh, love, & live everyday like it's your last
- Mary kate Olsen

You keep wearing your heart on your sleeve and you're gonna bleed to death.
- Dawsons Creek

i've met a guy; who's not scared to laugh at me
& call me a loser when i do something dumb.
a guy that'll run up behind me & cover my
eyes & ask me to guess who he is, even
though it's pretty obvious. a guy who hides
behind a corner & jumps out to scare me,
so he'd have a reason to hold me. a guy that
leaves me numberous voicemails, just cause.
a guy that'd call to wake me up in the morning,
cause he wants to be the first voice i hear each
day. a guy that would never let go of my hand.
a guy that would look me in the eyes & tell me he
loves me. & mean it. yeah, that guy. i think i found
the guy i'm supposed to give my whole heart to.

everytime i see you i want nothing more
than for you to walk up to me
and hold my hand like before
but this time i wouldn't let you go.

He loves her more. She loves him more.
It seems like they'll never let each other go.

Whitney: You need to let him fall down & pick himself back up.
Lauren: Yeah, but I have seen him fall, & he falls hard.

Heidi: If he`s cute & sweet, tell me the food`s great. So, how`s the food?
Audrina: It`s kind of greasy.

i want to be the girl he's scared to lose;
the one he can't walk away from knowing she's mad at him.
the one who he can't fall asleep without her being the last one heard,
the one he wouldn't know what to do without.

maybe its the only way we can finally
stand on our own.  you know, to hurt each
other so much that we have no choice but
to let go, maybe otherwise we never would.
+ Dawson's Creek

i mean, you were right,
i got into this for all the wrong reasons
but i lucked out, because now that i'm here,
i can't imagine being anywhere else.

& there wasn't anything overly amazing
about him;  just something she couldn't resist.

its funny how you can always tell when a boy
likes someone else; but you never tell if he likes you.

our hearts are like puzzle pieces,
& mine was made to fit with yours.

walking down the halls,
each one of you on opposite sides,
ignoring eachother and looking away,
you know it shouldn't be this way.

you were just a big mistake
that lasted way too long.

why does everybody lie?
the bad guys lie to get in your bed
and the good guys lie to get in your heart.
+ One Tree Hill

it's not that i want to be the one holding your hand,
its just that i don't want her to be the one holding it.
+ Dawson's Creek

look, i don't know if there's only one person
on the planet you're supposed to be with,
but when we're together, it sure feels that way.
+ The OC

i hope you don't look at her
the same way that you look at me.

he knew he made a mistake.
you could see it on his face everytime
she walked into the room;  he wishes
he wouldn't have done that to her.

never say goodbye;
because saying goodbye means going away
and going away means forgetting...

Anna:  why do relationships have to be so hard?
Peyton:  cause the only thing harder is being alone.
-- One Tree Hill

in the end, we all end up being the people
we swore we would never be.

i want a different ending to our same old story.
lets try to make it last this time; and prove them all wrong.

girls always fall a little bit
more in love than boys do.

because the truth is;
there's nothing to be afraid of...
its just life.

i hate how we don't talk for weeks but then all
of a sudden you talk to me again.
its like nothing happened and i slowly start
falling for you all over again.

so basically, i'm gonna go all 3rd grader on your
ass and double-dog-dare you to fall in love with me

&& because guys like you are the reason
they made waterproof mascara.

some people are easy to get over
they only take a weak or two,
but sooner or later you`ll find the one
who has changed everything about you,
and no matter how hard you try,
you can`t find the words to say goodbye.

Something tells me that whatever happens with us,
whether we stay together or go our separate ways,
neither one of us will ever forget the time we spent together.

behind every untrusting girl is a
boy who taught her to be that way.

he was in the middle of a group of girls,
but when she came up to him, he held her
tight and kissed her because to him, she
was the only one that ever mattered

it's crazy, right? to love someone who's hurt you? but it's even crazier to think that someone who hurts you, loves you.

Knowing that someone's wrong for you
doesn't change the way you feel.

Cause I might know you a little better than you think & I don`t want you waking up one morning thinking if you`d known everything you might have done something different
[ The Notebook ]

(Chandler & Phoebe are breaking up with their boyfriend/girlfriend together)
Phoebe: this is nice, we never do anything just the two of us.
Chandler: Oh yeah, this is great. Maybe next week we can rent a car and go run over some puppies.
Phoebe: I don't want to do that.

I`m a slut cause i`ll wear shorts & a tank top. I`m anorexic cause i eat as much as i want & don`t gain weight. I`m a bitch cause i don`t let you push me around. I`m a liar cause i won`t tell you everything. I`m stupid cause sometimes i`m wrong. I`m ugly cause my face isn`t perfect. I`m a whore cause i like boys. I`m annoying cause i`m not chill enough. I`m a loser cause i`m not friends with your group. I use people cause i do what`s best for me. I`m fake cause most of the time i`m happy. I`m weird cause i`m not like you. I`m controlling cause i get mad. Sometimes i`m clingy cause i like being around people. I`m greedy cause i like to be satisfied. I`m naive cause i`m younger than you. I`m conceited cause i`m proud of who i am. I`m rude cause my manners aren`t perfect. i`m unappreciative cause i don`t praise you. Don`t tell me who i am cause i already know.

Sometimes you have to be strong for yourself. You have to know that you`re a good person & a good friend. What`s meant to be will end up good & what`s not - won`t. Love is worth fighting for, but sometimes you can`t be the only one fighting. At times, people need to fight for you. If they don`t, you just have to move on & realize what you gave them was more than they were willing to give you. Hopefully, people realize great things when they come around & don`t lose something real. Always fight, until you can`t anymore, & then be fought for.

i never had anyone i could actually count on.
i've been let down so many times. i was tired
of hurting and so tired of searching. and then,
you walked into my life. it was a feeling i'd
never known and for the first time, i didn't
feel alone.

"He probably loves her," I said; twirling my hair & staring at them. He was holding her tight & something about the way he was holding her made me believe that she was important to him. Then he saw me looking. His grip loosened a little, & he looked down shamefully. I turned away, heart broken, & started to walk away. Then I stopped myself; it hurt less to stare at them than walk away knowing he won`t follow.

The best friends are the ones that you
don't have to talk to everyday, who understand
why you didn't take their advice to not call
him or why you keep going back to him again.
The ones who call you at 4am to let you know
they're drunk, who listen when they've heard
the same story a thousand times, the ones who
call just to say hi. & whether you're dancing
on the table or passed out drunk, they'll turn
and say, "hell yeah, that's my best friend."

its funny how you still love the person,
but you just stop needing them like you used to.

you still mean everything to her...
you're just not worth the fight anymore.

Thought I couldn't live without you. It's going to hurt when it heals too. It'll all get better in time. Even though I really love you, I'm gonna smile because I deserve to. It'll all get better in time.

They're both so stubborn, but they give in when it's for each other.

I don't want things to be like this anymore. I want to talk to you and I want to be with you. But it seems like everytime we're close, something happens and we're right back to fighting. And the truth is, I hate not talking to you.

Get ready, if you think it can't get worse, it can. My reason why I was unfaithful is preposterous. I have no reason. I woke up one day a few months ago and I realized that my life was perfect. Everything I've ever wanted from the time I was six, has been realized. I've discovered that perfection obtained is a discomforting state. And I got restless. What do you do when everything in your life is right? When everything is just what you wanted it to be? I have the perfect home, career, the most gifted child, a husband who stimulates my mind, body, and soul every day of my life. I wanted more for nothing. And I guess that made me feel empty, not wanting. I just wanted to "want" again. So, I set out to achieve it. And, boy oh boy, did I succeed. Because what I want now, I want back everything I've lost.

Never regret. If it's good, it's wonderful.  If it's bad, it's experience.
- Victoria Holt

you didn't love her. you just didn't want to be alone. Or maybe, maybe she was just good for your ego. or, or maybe she made you feel better about your miserable life, but you didn't love her. because you don't destroy people you love.
-Grey's Anatomy

it was more than love for him.  it was the feeling she
got every single time his name was said, or when he
brushed by her in the hall or held her hand.  he was
the boy she changed for, the boy she would have
dropped anything and everything just to spend a night
with him. he was always the center of her world,
but she couldn't seem to grasp the concept
that she was never the center of his.

i wanted you to fight for me!  i wanted you to say that
there is no one else you would rather be with,
and that you would rather be alone than without me.
-- one tree hill

i  can't explain this feeling for you, but i guess i can try.
it's like i've waited for this one thing my whole life,
and it's suddently right in front of me.  i know you
sometimes doubt how you feel for me, and sometimes
i doubt how i feel for you, but then there are times
-stupid times- like when we're posing for a picture,
or i'm sitting in your car, or when we're walking
together and we brush against eachother, and i know
without a question that you're feeling the same way i am.
and those moments, however few or far between,
make everything we go through worth it. what can i say?
somewhere in these past few months, i've fallen in love.

Nobody knew you sent me texts all day putting a smile on my face. Or texts at night saying "goodnight sleep well beautiful" and in the morning saying "good morning. did you sleep well?" Nobody understood why i fell for you. All the saw was the result ; a broken heart.

When you're 16, logic and experience don't matter.
All that matters is the way you feel and the way
you felt the first time you knew it was l o v e.

i think it's pretty much impossible
to forget someone who once was
the only reason you smiled.

always & forever; you & me,
that's the way our lives should be.

One day you're going to want that girl. The girl that knew
she wasn't perfect but tried to be perfect for you. The girl
that believed the scraps of you she was given were worth
it because something was better than nothing. The girl who
wanted nothing more than to be there for you, and loving
you was the only way she could. The girl who sees your
flaws, but values them as much as your strengths. The girl
who still can't bring herself to hate you, even though
sometimes you probably deserve it. The girl who saw
past your pretty eyes and treasured parts of you that
no one else has ever appreciated. The girl who realizes
she may never have your heart, but will carry the image
of you in hers forever. The girl that sees this and still
loves you. The girl that should have you, but doesn't.

that's when you realize he's the boy you're crazy for.
the boy who makes you laugh on the worst days,
calls you beautiful even when you look like a mess,
and can make you smile non-stop.  he's not perfect,
but neither are you.  he loves you for who you are,
and made you realize it's possible to have permanent
butterflies.  he's the boy who makes you feel amazing,
and when you're with him & he's holding you in his arms,
life is perfect because he loves you and you love him.
