post number sixteen

today was eventful. of course. as was lastnight. do i enjoy fighting with my mother? no. do i intend to be walked all over though? helllll no. i will no longer resemble a doormat. come at me bitch.

on a lighter note.. i got to enjoy a twilight swim tonight with one of my most favoritest people in the world. it was a really good time. i get to talk about stuff with her that i can't with any one else. it's fantastic. i'm going to miss her something fierce when she goes to the land down under. even before that she'll leave me for teachers college. i'm gonna be a mess! but hey, she's a growed up; she was bound to leave me eventually. i'm sure we'll cross paths in a beautifully foreign country one day.

school is edging closer and closer. i'm getting particularly nervous.

i need a job. i dropped a resume off today at my aunt's store. i really hope i get the job. if not i'll drop one off at the drugstore; ugh.

"But don't forget who you really are. And I'm not talking about your so-called real name. All names are made up by someone else, even the one your parents gave you. You know who you really are. When you're alone at night, looking up at the stars, or maybe lying in your bed in total darkness, you know that nameless person inside you...Your muscles will toughen. So will your heart and soul. That's necessary for survival. But don't lose touch with that person deep inside you, or else you won't really have survived at all." -Louis Sachar

"we all die. the goal isn't to live forever,
it is to create something that will"

Girls do not dress for boys.  They dress for themselves,
and of course, eachother.  If girls dressed for boys,
they'd just walk around naked at all times- BETSEY JOHNSON

i've never been so in love with something...

Life is hard enough as it is without choosing someone
difficult to share it with.
-He’s Just Not That Into You 

"Until he looks for you,

he’s not the one.”

-Sharon Stone

 

if you don't know what you want,

you end up with a lot you don't

This is exactly what I wanted, as commitments

had never really been my thing. And it wasn’t like it was hard, either.

The only trick was never giving more than you were willing to lose.

~ Sarah Dessen

you're going to be alright."

i remember seeing girls crying in the bathroom every morning

about what they did at a party that weekend.

i never wanted to be that girl

Don't be flattered that he misses you.

He should miss you. You're deeply missable.

However, he's still the same person who

just broke up with you. Remember, the

only reason he can miss you is because

he's choosing, every day, not to be with you.

- he's just not that into you

A man who wants to make a relationship work will move mountains to keep the woman he loves. If he's not calling you to tell you he loves you and wants you back, it should only be because he's showing up at your new residence to do it in person ... if he's not doing any of that, he may love you, he may miss you, but ultimately he's just not that into you. Stop taking his calls and let him know what it's like to live without you.-hes just not that into you

Remember if people talk behind your back,

it only means you are two steps ahead.

"Why were you lurking under our window?"

"Yes -- yes, good point, Petunia! What were you doing under our windows, boy?"

"Listening to the news," said Harry in a resigned voice.

His aunt and uncle exchanged looks of outrage.

"Listening to the news! Again?"

"Well, it changes every day, you see," said Harry.

"Proud?" said Harry. "Are you crazy? All those times I could've died, and I didn't manage it? They'll be furious...."

"You can try," said Harry indifferently. "But you seem cleverer than Fudge, so I'd have thought you'd have learned from his mistakes. He tried interfering at Hogwarts. You might have noticed he's not Minister anymore, but Dumbledore's still headmaster. I'd leave Dumbledore alone, if I were you."

"I am not worried, Harry," said Dumbledore, his voice a little stronger despite the freezing water. "I am with you."

“Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?”

"Harry!" said Fred, elbowing Percy out of the way and bowing deeply. "Simply splendid to see you, old boy--"

"Marvelous," said George, pushing Fred aside and seizing Harry's hand in turn. "Absolutely spiffing."

Percy scowled.

"That's enough, now," said Mrs. Weasley.

"Mum!" said Fred as though he'd only just spotted her and seizing her hand too. "How really corking to see you--"

Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people

should lead their lives, but none about his or her own.

Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot,

and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?

In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on.

Religion is like a pair of shoes.....Find one that fits for you,
but don't make me wear your shoes. — George Carlin  

Rock bottom is good solid ground,
and a dead end street is just a place to turn around.
