  • Soooo sorry its been so long.  School is kinda winding down for me, but that of course means that I am BUSYYYY! I have AP exams for the next 2 weeks. AH! and Promaaaaaa... o my goodness.

    What came first, the music or the misery?
    People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos
    That some sort of culture of violence will take them over
    Noody worries about kids listening to thousands,
    Literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain,
    Misery and loss.
    Did I listen to pop music because I was miserable?
    Or was I miserable because I listened to pop music?

    But risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life
    Is to risk nothing
    The person who risks nothing, does nothing, have nothing,
    Is nothing.
    He may avoid suffering and sorrow
    But he cannot learn, feel, change, grow
    Or live.
    Chained by his servitude he is a slave who has forfeited all freedom
    Only a person who risks is free.

    And I'm leaning on the fence between past and present tense
    And i'm losing all those stupid games
    I swore i'd never play
    But it almost feels okay.

    Cup your mouth to compress the sound, skinny dipping with the kids from a nearby town.  And everything that I said was true, as the flashed blinded us in the photobooth.  Well, I lost track, and then those words were said.  You took the wheel and you steered us into my bed.  Soon we woke and I walked you home, and it was pretty clear that it was hardly love.

    Stories wait for endings
    But songs are brave things
    Bold enough to sing
    When all they know is darkness.

    Ideas came with explosive immediacy,
    Like an instant birth
    Human thought is like a monstrous pendulum
    It keeps swinging from one extreme to the other.

    The butterflies are passive aggressive and put their problems on the shelf but they're beautiful
    He'll realize the only thing thats real are the kids that kid themselves
    And the demise of the beautiful.

    The most important things are the hardest to say.  they are the things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them.  Words shrink things that seemed limitless.  When they were in your head to no more than living size when they are brought out.  But it's more than that, isn't it?  The most impratnt things lie to close to wherever your secret heard is buried, and you may make releveations that cost you early only to have people look at you in a funny way, not understand that you almost cried while you were saying it.  That's the worst, I think.  When the secret stay's locked within not for a want of a teller, but for an understanding ear.
    --Stephen King.


    To wear your heart on your sleeve isn't a very good plan;
    you should wear it inside, where it functions best.
    [»] Margaret Thatcher

    Shared laughter creates a bond of friendships.  When people laugh together, they cease to be young and old, teacher and pupils, worker and boss.  They become a single group of human beings.
    --W. Lee Grant

    "You know, some people say life is short and that you could get hit by a bus at any moment and that you have to live each day like it's your last.  Bullshit.  Life is long, you're probably not gonna  get hit by a bus and you're gonna have to live with the choices you make for the next fifty years."

    I hate how everyone compares love to Romeo and Juliet.  Did anyone ever read that play?  The two met for a few minutes, starting hittiing it off a few hours later on a balcony.  They married 3 days later.  3 days?  Keep in mind they hardly spoke then.  Got married, did the big deed and long story short, they died.  They were lust.  I bet Juliet didn't even know Romeo's favourite colour, much less his birthday.  I don't want a relationship like that.  I want one where I know everything about him, that I know its more important than looks.

    In your whole life,
    Nobody has ever abused you more than you have abused yourself
    And the limit of your self abuse is exactly
    The limit of abuse that you will tolerate from someone else.

    You're in love with the feeling  you get when I utter your name
    Imagine what would happen if I beat you at your own game.

    I'd like to see you undone.

    We were all fooling around with guys,
    We thought it was fun to call it "Seven Minutes in Heaven"
    Now we're sixteen and we don't call it anything in particular
    But we sure do a lot of it.

  • I am finally updating!!!! Sorry it has taken so long, I have been absolutely swamped.... Hope I don't disappoint <3

    *My personal Fav!*
    If you hear someone speaking ill of you, instead of trying to defend yourself you should say, "They obviously don't know me very well since there are so many other faults they could've mentioned."

    To laugh often and much,
    to win the respect of intelligent people
    and the affection of children,
    to earn the appreciation of honest critics
    and endure the betrayal of false friends,
    to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others,
    to leave the world a bit better,
    whether by a healthy child, a garden patch...
    to know even one life has breathed easier
    because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!

    All I want is one person
    One person to hold me down and force me to say how I really care
    About what I have to say.
    One person to hug me
    And tell me things will be okay
    Even if they won't.

    Just like you can see the smallest speck of dust
    In a ray of sunshine pouring from a window
    I can still see who you used to be.

    She's sixteen years old.  She is not perfect, never has been, probably never will be.  She's emotional and she doesn't think about things before she says  them.  Invariably, she'll say some things that will make you want to strangle her.  She'll probably hurt you and make more mistakes than you can image.  She doesn't mean to, but she probably will.  However, she will apologize, she's still learning about everything.  Even if she thinks she already knows it.  She's been hurt, hurt deeply.  Sometimes she feels so alone she can hardly stand it.  Other times she's so happy she acts drunk.  She's just trying to figure out this twisted time in her life when everything gets real complicated real fast and everything seems to spin out of control before she even beguns to understand what's going on.  But she loves, laughs, and does her best, and thats all you can ever ask of her.

    Class is dead darling,
    It died with the dinosaurs
    It traded its pearls and white wine
    For myspace and corona.
    Welcome to the twenty first century
    Would you like fries with that?

    Here's a toast, to the good days, the better friends, the ones that you just can't live without.  The people that have taught you how to party, how to live, how to have a good time just sitting around.  Here are to the people that no matter how bad things seem, are going to be there for you to lean back on and catch you when you fall.

    I love how things work out in the end
    you may have doubt throughout
    But if you're in doubt, it's not the end
    If you're unhappy.
    It's not the end
    Have faith in what you do and feel
    Confident while doing it because
    In the end it all has to work out.

    Tell me that it doesn't mean anything and i'll drive away right now
    And when we pass each other in the halls,
    We can pretend we don't even know each other.
    --Ugly Betty

    There is sacredness in tears
    They are not the mark of weakness
    But of power.
    They speak more eloquently than 10,000 tongues
    They are the messengers of overwhelming grief
    Deep contrition
    And of unspeakable love.

    I wanted to destroy everything beautiful i'd never have.  Burn the amazong rain forests, pump chlorofluorocarbons straight up to gobble the ozone.  Open the dump valves on supertankers and uncap offshore oil wells.  I wanted to kill all the fish I couldn't afford to each, and smother the french beaches i'd never see.  I wanted the whole world to hit rock bottom.

    I like long walks and sci fi movies
    If you're six foot tall and east-coast bred
    Some lonely night we can get together
    And i'm gonna tie your wrists with leather
    and drill a tiny hole in your head.

  • hey everyone... still not getting a lot of feedback, but thanks a ton to the people who actually do give feedback, it means a lot!

    There's a diffeerence between someone who listens to you
    And someone who only hears what you're saying.

    It's the kind of night for vodka and forties
    Who's ready for the war tonight?
    Who's ready for the war tonight?
    I'm running on caffeine and nicotine and amphetamine
    It's more stimulants on the way
    But who doesn't have a drug problem these days?

    I tell you what there is plent wrong with you,
    Stuff you'd sooner fight for than cope to
    But I think it's one more reason why we are meant to be
    People say I look like you and you look like me
    We get this crazy combination of everything or nothing right.

    Then looking upwards, I strain my eyes and try to tell the differences between shooting stars and satellites from the passenger seat as you are driving me home.  "Do they collide?" I ask and you smile, with my feet on your dashboard the world doesn't matter.

    A true friend never gets in your war
    Unless you're going down.

    Show me how we can make this life more than ordinary
    Don't look down if you're afraid to fall.

    Take Chances
    Alot of them.
    Because honestly. no matter where you end up and with who
    It always ends up the way it should be
    Your mistakes make you who you are
    You learn and grow with each choice you mak
    Everything is worth it
    Say how you feel
    Always be you....and be okay with it.

    I do not wish to treat friendships daintily,
    But with the roughest courage
    When they are real,
    They are not glass threads of frost-work
    But the solidest things we know.
    --Ralph Waldo Emerson.

    Sorry guys, no pictures today =(

  • Heyyy everyone... no more feedback than usuall... but here is the next update...

    I know i'm not easy to understand.  I know I keep a lot inside and I know i'm not the easiest person to read, but that's okay.  Cause even though there's a lot about me you'll never know, there's a hell of a lot more of me you can learn to love.

    If you can make someone smile, just with a story or a joke, you're doing pretty good
    If you can light up a face, simply by walking into the room, boy you've got talent.

    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes shes wears,
    The figure that she carries,
    or the way she combs her hair
    The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes
    Because that is the doorway to her heart.
    The place where love resides.
    --Audrey Hepburn

    Stories wait for endings
    But songs are brave
    Things bold enough to sing
    When all they know is darkness.

    I'm the kind of girl who can talk to a total stranger about anything and everything.  But I can't tell my best friend how much i'm hurting.  I can let people know that i'm yoiung and not worry about it.  But I can't tell them how much I miss being younger.  I hate not being invited to parties only cause I feel so alone, and I can't understand how I don't have many friends.  I'm the kind of girl that can be easy to fall for and the kind of girl who falls easily.  I'm the kind of girl who can pick herself up and I can switch my feelings in a minute.

    The biggest room in the world
    Is the room for improvement.

    Opposites attract because it's fun to get to know someone who isn't like you
    Whatever they do is so unpredictable and it'll throw you off
    It makes time with them a roller coaster of fun
    It's nice to know that there are people out there who don't want to be like everyone else.

    I wanna dance to the music in my heard
    I wanna think you're not looking
    But know you are.

    Be young, wild, and crazy.  Live the life you'll always want to remember.  Because when you get old you don't want to look back on your life and say, " I was too afraid to do this, or this, or this..." When you get old, you don't want to get stuck with the life you've always been afraid of living.

    When I was in elementary school the teacher told me to write down what I wanted to be when I grew up.  I wrote, "happy".  She told me I didn't understand the assignment, what was being asked of me.  I told her she didn't understand life.

    Life's disappointments are harder to take
    When you don't know any swear words.

    What did it feel like, I wondered to be kissed like that right out in public?
    Not like some passionate tongue-wrestling thing,
    Just a kiss to declare
    We are each other's
    I'd never been kissed like that
    No one had declared me his, not for the world to see, anyway.

    Fake it if your out of direction
    Fake it if you don't belong
    Fake it if you feel like infection
    Whoa, you're such a hypocrite.

    Never be bullied into silence
    Never allow yourself to be made a victim
    Accept NO ONE's definition of YOUR life
    define YOURSELF.

    So many people walk around with a meaningless life.  They seem half-asleep evern when they're doing things they think are important.  This is because they're chasing the wrong things.  The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote youself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning.

  • Hey hey lovers, i came home sick from school today so i have a little time to update, however I would like to know what you are all thinking about these updates!!!

    2

    It's not that I'm mad at you
    I had just wished and hoped so hard that you could be the one thing that I could finally count on.

    Just be who you are, wait your turn, don't push.  Be beautiful, be graceful.  If you're going to get angry, be angry behind closed doors.  Don't ever let them see you sweat.  Just hold your head up no matter what, and don't ever let anyone stomp you out.

    And sometimes when you're on.  You're really on.
    And you friends, they sing along and they love you.
    But the lows are so extreme that they good seems cheap.

    5

    We fight mainy for one reason.  Cause when you fight you truely find out how much you're willing to take before you break and when you break you need to see if that other person truely cares enough to make everything okay again cause without fighting, liars of love could be walking all over the place.

    If there were no challenges or hardships in life,
    No tears, no pain, no blood.
    What would be the point?
    We all need to feel a little throbbing every once in a while
    Just to remind us that we are still alive.

    In our backwards world
    We are defined by that which is missing
    The things we never did,
    The chances we never took,
    The words we never spoke.
    We are defined by everything we should have done but just couldn't.

    1

    I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge, that myth is more potent than history.  I believe that dreams are more powerful than acts, that hope always triumphs over experience, that laughter is the only cure for grief and I believe that love is stronger than death.

    I know you for your quirks
    The way you smile, the shape of your face, the way you say my name, the difference in your laughs, the difference in your smiles, the faces you make, the habits you have.  I know you for the little things, surely, that counts for something.  Right?

    When the character of a man is not clear to you
    Look at your friends.
    --Japanese Proverb

    3

    Look in the mirror
    You're beautiful
    He may not think so
    But that's not what matters
    What matters is that you know you are.

    People are like stained glass windows
    They sparkles and shine when the sun is out
    But when the darkness sets in
    Their true beauty is revelead only if
    There is light from within.
