Problem:
 the boy broke up with his girlfriend. but we're not really talking. i'm giving him his space, because he says he wants to do his own thing for now. which i totally understand. i really do. i just hope he comes around soon and at least speaks to me. because the way it is now, we havent really talked in like two days. the ex? i'm done. fucking done, son. the other boy? we still talk and flirt constantly. so i'm just kind of here, right now. thought you would want an undate of my life.

i've had this ready for a while. i just suck at finding icons

thanks those those four of you who commented. i really appreciate the help -- and i'm taking everyone's advice into consideration. you can find out more at the end, if you're curious. things are more complicated than ever -- but for now:




Quotes

01.
i'm a bitch and i don't try hard enough. i'm perfectly happy with how i am, but i'm not all i thought i wanted to be. i have secrets that would kick your ass but i don't let them bother me. i'm not tough; i'm not weak. i'm not unique or original. i am online way too much and i love compliments. i dance because it's an art, not because i want to be a slut. so don't ask me to shake my ass in front of 3,000 people; i won't. i'm okay with standing up by myself, and i'm cool with being alone. i won't preach to you about what i believe, but you will know. it's actions, not words, that matter.

it was the tequila talking if i told you i'm still
not over you. I get a little sentimental when
I've had one or two and that tear in my eye

you walking. If i said i'm still in love with you
that was the tequlia talking.

08.

Problem:
along with the two boys that i have previously mentioned, my ex has come back into the picture. i thought.. that him getting married (yeah, he's 19. and married. idiot, or what?). you know in the movie Sweet Home Alabama, where she says "See, I gave my heart away a long time ago, and I never really got it back." Yeah. that's.. my ex. I gave him my whole heart, and I'd do anything for him. I still love him, and everyone thinks we'll end up back together. Well, his wife sent one of my friends (who happens to be HER ex) some message on myspace, saying a whole bunch of crap, and my ex and I have been talking. well I informed him of that, and she found out we were talking. and she "left" him. the catch? she's pregnant. (which, she's miscarried four times before now, so [ i know this sounds horrible, but it's the truth. she has so many medical problems its not funny ] im waiting for her to miscarry again.) and he told me if she miscarried, he's done with her. and we talk everyday. about anything and everything. he's the only person that makes me feel complete. but i'm still taking into consideration the fact he broke my heart. he shattered me. but i don't.. know.. if i'll be truly happy unless i'm with him. BUTTT i'm still.. talking to boy A and boy B (who i'm going to continue to wait for him to break up with his bitch.) but i'm just at a loss. i know i ask a lot -- but HELP!???!!?!!?

Question :
if you don't feel like giving advice -- that's cool. but now that I've said all of that, I have a question. Do you think people who are under the age of 25 are too young to get married?

my answer: yes. it's not that i don't think they don't know what they want, its just, how many people do you know that are stable financically and mentally under the age of 25 that are ready to be married? i think you should have a an education under your belt, a job, and a plan on what you're going to do with your life. then marriage is a good subject to discuss. plus i think people who are younger are more suseptible(sp?) to having things get in the way. like emotions. i just don't think people are ready when they're 18, 19, and 20. it's just.. i don't haha.

01.
&just because somebody flirts with you, doesn't mean they like you.just because somebody likes you, doesn't mean they want to go out with you.just because somebody wants to go out with you, doesn't mean they love you.just because somebody loves you, doesn't mean they won't hurt you. because people lie, things change.boyfriends cheat. bestfriends ditch. ..and there are always going to be those people who would kill to see you fall.i live to please myself, and no one else.


02.
I miss talking to you, Knowing that you get me, And every time I talk to someone else,It just reminds me of how much they don't.

03.
you have to stand alone, just to make sure you still can.

04.
It's weird how one moment I want you to be with me and only me and one moment I am totally okay seeing you with another girl. Maybe it's love or maybe it's just plain old jealousy. Remember? I used to be the girl you were with, the one you held in your arms, the girl you would do anything for, and now that it's gone, I'm lost and confused.

05.
I'm never letting this one go, because often certain people enter our lives at the most peculiar times for the most beautiful reasons. They seem to make the most perfect impressions while leaving behind an everlasting impact. Some of thebest things in life appear when you least expect them. Things you can never forget.

06.
baby, prove to me you're not average and we'll beon the same page; cause the only difference i see in guys is they all got different names.

07.

08.
Don't look at me like that
I don't feel like falling for you over again
I can't afford the heartache

09.
I’ve never met anyone
That can compare to
The way he makes me laugh.

10.
don’t ever give up
because if you do..
He will too.

14.
It’s all your fault
You called me beautiful
You turn me out and now I can’t turn back
I hold my breath, because you were perfect
But I’m running out of air, and It’s not fair.
-- pink “it’s all your fault”

15.
I don’t remember much that night
Except the look in  my eyes
When you smiled my way

16.
You were all I ever wanted
all I ever needed and more..
til you walked out my door

17.
I don't want to get over you. I guess I could take a sleeping pill and sleep at will and not have to go through what I go through. I guess I should take Prozac, right, and just smile all night at somebody new, Somebody not too bright but sweet and kind who would try to get you off my mind. I could leave this agony behind, which is just what I'd do if I wanted to, but I don't want to get over you cause I don't want to get over love. I could listen to my therapist, pretend you don't exist and not have to dream of what I dream of; I could listen to all my friends and go out again and pretend it's enough, or I could make a career of being blue--I could dress in black and read Camus, smoke clove cigarettes and drink vermouth like I was 17 that would be a scream but I don't want to get over you.

18.
I wonder if it's okay to cry over you. 'Cause we were never anything special. I just thought we could be

19.
And you said it would be funny to keep me hanging in suspense, then I'd run over to your house and I'd scale the chain link fence that borders your back yard. and then I'd climb through your window and I'd whisper that I love you as you fall out of your clothes, and we'd lay there in the darkness like the dream of you I had where we captured all the fireflies and we knew what time we had could be counted on our fingertips that almost made you cry; you let me hold you tightly as we said all our goodbyes


20.
I want somebody to sleep with me, and just sleep. Someone to cuddle up with during a movie, on a couch. Stay up all night talking about nothing. Get lost in the woods together. Challenge me, let me challenge him. Talk about dreams, and make dreams,. Have fights, the kind that only really matter just as long as you're having them. Someone I can wrestle with, you know, play hard sometimes & not worry about breaking a nail or an arm. A guy who will bring me flowers once in a while, maybe a rock too or a shell of some sort. Something he saw that made him think of me, made him think "this might make my girl smile" as he smiles to himself. A guy who wants me, maybe even needs me, just a little, enough to hold onto me with everything he's got.

so i noticed someone had a Sarah Dessen quote in one of their updates ( i can't remember who) and so i thought "i'm going to use some Sarah Dessen quotes in my update!" and then.. i found this site that had a shitton (yep. a shit. ton.) of quotes from her books. and since i've read all of them except like TWO.. i figured .. i'm going to make my new update all about Sarah Dessen. and if you haven't read any of her works.. they're AMAZING. promise. My favorite is The Truth About Forever. i'll explain after quotes, in case you're interested (:

01.
Cause that’s what happens when you try to run from the past;It doesn’t catch up; it overtakes, blotting out the future,The landscape, the very sky, until they’re not path except thatWhich leads through it, the only way you can ever get home.
“Just Listen”


02.
There is never a time or place for true love. It happens accidentally, in a heartbeat, in a single flashing, throbbing moment.
“The Truth About Forever”


03.
No relationship is perfect, ever. There are always some ways you have to bend, to compromise, to give something up in order to gain something greater...The love we have for each other is bigger than these small differences. And that's the key. It's like a big pie chart, and the love in a relationship has to be the biggest piece. Love can make up for a lot.
"This Lullaby"


04.
It's just that...I just think that some things are meant to be broken. Imperfect. Chaotic. It's the universe's way of providing contrast, you know? There have to be a few holes in the road. It's how life is.
"The Truth About Forever"


05.
I knew, in the silence that followed, that anything could happen here. It might be too late: again, I might have missed my chance. But I would at least know I tried, that I took my heart and extended my hand, whatever the outcome.
'Okay,' he said. He took a breath. 'What would you do, if you could do anything?'
I took a step toward him, closing the space between us. 'This,' I said.
And then I kissed him. Kissed him. There, in the middle of the street, as the world went on around us. Behind me, I knew Jason was still waiting for an explanation, my sister was still lecturing, and that angel still had her eyes skyward, waiting to fly. As for me, I was just trying to get it right, whatever that meant. But now I finally felt I was on my way. Everyone had a forever, but given a choice, this would be mine. The one that began in this moment, with Wes, in a kiss that took my breath away, then gave it back- leaving me astounded, amazed, and most of all, alive.
"The Truth About Forever"


06.
It's a lot easier to be lost than found. It's the reason we're always searching and rarely discovered--so many locks not enough keys.
"Lock & Key"


07.
But it's strange, when you've always been told something is true, like the moon will come back. You need proof. And while you wait, you feel the entire balance of your world just tipping. It's crazy. But when it's over, and it does come back, that's the best, because it's all you want, everything narrows to just that. It's this great rush, like for that one second everything's okay with the world again. It's amazing.
"Keeping the Moon"


08.
I was worn out, broken: He had taken almost everything. But he'd been all I'd had, all this time. And when the police led him away, I pulled out of the hands of all these loved one, sobbing, screaming, everything hurting, to try and make him stay.
"Dreamland"


09.
Not every thing's perfect, especially in the beginning. and its all right to have a little big of regret every once in a while. It's when you feel it all the time and can't do anything about it... that's when you get into trouble
"Lock & Key"


10.
You can't just plan a moment when things get back on track, just as you can't plan the moment you lose your way in the first place.
"Someone Like You"


11.
"Maybe not," she said as we came to the car. "But maybe that isn't so bad. You can't love anyone that way more than once in a lifetime. It's too hard and it hurts too much when it ends. The first boy is always the hardest to get over, Haven. It's just the way the world works."
"That Summer"


12.
Holding people away from you, and denying yourself love, that doesn't make you strong. if anything, it makes you weaker. Because you're doing it out of fear.
"This Lullaby"


13.
There are some things in this world that you can rely on, like a sure bet. And when thy let you down, shifting from where you've carefuly placed them, it shakes your faith, right where you stand.
"Someone Like You"


14.
Because life is an ugly awful place not to have a best friend
"Someone Like You"


15.
I'd long ago learned not to be picky about farewells. They weren't guaranteed or promised. You were lucky, more than blessed, if you got a good-bye at all.
"The Truth About Forever"


16.
But wasn't that always the way. It's never something huge that changes everything, but instead the tiniest of details, irrevocably tweaking the balance of the universe while you're busy focusing on the big picture
"Lock & Key"


17.
I don't know. Just because someone's pretty doesn't mean she's decent. Or vice versa. I'm not into appearances. I like flaws, I think they made things interesting--Wes;
"The Truth About Forever"


18.
An empty frame, in which the picture is always changing, makes a statement about how time is always passing. It doesn't really stop, even in a single image. It just feels that way.
"The Truth About Forever"


19.
"What you have to decide... is how you want your life to be. If your forever was ending tomorrow, would this be how you'd want to have spent it? Listen, the truth is, nothing is guaranteed. You know that more than anybody. So dont be afraid. Be alive."
"The Truth About Forever"


20.
Don't think, or judge. Just listen.

i was actually really surprised i could find all those icons for Sarah Dessen books :P and i had to save those two for last. they were too cute.

Question of the Day:


What is your favorite Sarah Dessen book and why?

my answer: The Truth About Forever. i just fell in love with it, instantly. there was something about it. and then.. if by some miracle, a random boy added me on myspace (the boy i like now) and his mom is a caterer. it just.. floored me when i found out. because i had finished re-reading The Truth About Forever and like two days later he sent me a friend request. it was so weird. lmao. but i just love the book in general. I want to work at Wish ): aha.


so i'm thinking i'll ask for something simple. Three comments? thanks to you who normally do. I comment you back, thanking you.
