Leaving for France in 20 days!

 i'm so excited...

It has been said that we need just three things in life:
something to do,
something to look forward to,
and someone to love.

But love is none of these things.

It won't suddenly make every day okay.
It won't change who you are.

It won't make your car go faster.
It doesn't even wash your dishes.
All love is, is love.
And that's all it needs to be, really.

You don't need to change,
a thing about you babe,
I'm tellin you,
from where I sit you're one of a kind
Relationships, I don't know why,
they never work out,
and they make you cry,
but the guy that says goodbye to you is out of his mind.

"It is absurd to divide people into good and bad.

People are either charming or tedious."
-Oscar Wilde

"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence.

Talent will not; nothing is more common

than unsuccessful men with talent.

Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.

Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.

Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.

The slogan, 'press on' has solved, and always will solve,

the problems of the human race."
-Calvin Coolidge

Well, you can fall for chains of silver;
you can fall for chains of gold.
You can fall for pretty strangers
and the promises they hold.
You promised me everything,
you promised me thick and thin.
Now you just say,
"Oh, Juliet? Yeah, you know,
I used to have a scene with her."

 

Just let yourself know that you're worth it.

One more month and all I need

is a sign from you that you think of me
if you don't then please just say so
Cause all I do is think

of you.

I just wish you hadn't lied.

A piano might fall on your head

but it also might not and in the mean time
you never know, something nice might happen

"There's something in your voice that makes me nervous
if I can tell we're lying, why can't you?
The song that's in my head is playing backwards in this bed and I'm confused again
Seems like I have to choose - it feels like either way, I lose"
-"Starry Night" by Zox

I hope you realize you’ll never find a girl
who cares about you more than me.

I just want you to hug me one more time,
because the only thing in this world that scares me
is that I'll never feel that safe ever again.

I tried so hard. You know that, right?
I tried harder than you could ever imagine,
and now here I am, trying my best just to forget everything.
Every piece of you, the way you smell, the feel of your skin.
Too bad it was always so soft.
I can still feel you. I think I always will.

All I can picture is the color of your eyes
and the way you make me smile. I haven't felt this for a while.

I'm singing this song as loud as I can as I drive too fast
with my best friend. I wonder if you're wondering where I am.

Please don't go, just stay.
I watched with tears in my eyes as you walked away.
Miss your voice and your touch
and if I told you I loved you could that be enough?

Maybe we rushed into things. Maybe I got too
comfortable. Maybe I think too much. Maybe
I care about other people's feelings more than my own.
Maybe I don't care what happens.
Maybe I am too free to be in a relationship at all.

You aren't gonna be his first, his last, or his only.
He’s loved before and he will again. But if he likes you now,
what else matters? He's not perfect. You aren't either.
But if he can make you laugh at least once, cause you to think twice,
and admits to being human and making mistakes...
hold onto him and give him the most you can.
He's not going to quote poetry. He's not going to be thinking of you 
every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break.
Don't hurt him.  Don't change him. Don't expect more than he can give.
Try not to over-analyze. Smile when he makes you happy.
Yell when he makes you mad. And miss him when he's not there.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1.... HAPPY NEW YEAR!

happy 2009!
here are some quotes we should keep in mind as we bring in the new year.
it's time to start fresh.
anything can happen :)

"In the end, it's the "what if's" that hurt the most.
Like, what if things had gone a little differently?
Me? I don't believe in fate.
I believe we have more control then we think
and every action has a reaction."
-Scrubs.

"You know that place bewtween asleep and awake,
that place where you can still remember dreaming?
That's where I'll always love you.
That's where I'll be waiting."
-Peter Pan

"The grass is not, in fact, greener on the other side of the fence.
Fences have nothing to do with it.
The grass is greenest where it is watered.
When crossing over fences, carry water with you
and tend the grass wherever you may be."
-Robert Fulgham

"Would you stop thinking about what everyone wants?
Stop thinking about what I want, what he wants,

what your parents want. What do you want?
What do you want?"
-The Notebook

"If I had a snowflake for every time I thought of you,
we’d have a really white Christmas."
-Charlie Brown

“Life is the art of drawing without an eraser.”
-John W. Gardner

You'll be the Prince and I'll be the Princess...

 It's a love story, baby just say "yes."

pick your favorite quotes and photos from this entry! i love hearing 'em.

Just when you've had enough,
life gives you more. And just
when you think it’s rained
enough, it starts to pour

I hope you smile and think of me
And what we had for that one late night
when I was your world and you were mine.

I'm falling apart, I'm falling apart.
Don't say this won't last forever.
You're breaking my heart,
you’re breaking my heart.
Don’t tell me that we'll never be together
we could be over and over,
we could be forever.

It’s so hard to describe. It’s not like love at first sight, really.
It’s more like…gravity moves. When you see her,
suddenly it’s not the earth holding you here anymore.
 She does. And nothing matters more than her.
And you would do anything for her, be anything for her…
You become whatever she needs you to be,
 whether that’s a protector, or a lover, or a friend, or a brother.
-Twilight

When the Japanese mend broken objects,
they aggrandize the damage by filling the
cracks with gold. They believe that when
something's suffered damage and has a history
it becomes more beautiful.
- Barbara Bloom

I know I’ve been in love.
But I waited a long time before I said the word "love"
to someone even though I’ve been thinking it,
because I consider "love" to be more than just a word.
- Nick Jonas

Agape.
This word comes for the Greek language.
It defines a kind of love that very few have.
Roughly translated, it means unconditional love.
And I love you unconditionally.

"How did it get so late so soon?
It's night before it's afternoon.
December is here before it's June.
My goodness how the time has flewn.
How did it get so late so soon?"
- Dr. Seuss

Sometimes; the questions are complicated and the answers are simple.

-Dr. Seuss
