entry 12; colors<3

life is like a million pictures in a
photo album, you can remember it;
but you can never recapture it.

The only way to accept an insult is to ignore it.
If you can't ignore it, top it. If you can't top it, laugh at it.
If you can't laugh at it, you probably deserved it

If you don't go after what you want,
you'll never get it. if you don't ask, the
answer is always no. if you don't step
forward, you're always in the same place.

Advice is what we ask for
when we already know
the answer, but wish we didn't

You haven't lost your smile at all,
You just forgot it was there.

the wind is real, but you can't see the wind. you know, you can only see the leaves rustling in the trees. pain is real but you can't see pain. you can only see tears. happiness is real, but you can't see happiness. you can only see the smile on someone's face.

I think that's what I find most strange about this world is that nobody ever says how they feel. They hurt but they don't cry out. They're happy but they don't dance or jump around. And they're angry but they hardly ever scream. Because they feel ashamed. Nothing's worse than that. So we all walk around with our heads looking down and never up and see how beautiful the sky is.

I felt sad,
because I realized that once people are broken in certain ways,
they can't be fixed.
&& this is something that nobody ever tells you when you're young.
&& it never fails to surprise you as you grow older.
&& you see people in your life break
one by one

I'm gonna base this moment on who I'm stuck in a room with. That's what life is; it's a series of rooms and who we get stuck in these rooms with adds up to what our lives are.

I sat on the couch with a book in my hand. I thought of all of the good times I've had. But even though life's sometimes hard and it's hard to understand, the sky is the limit so do with it what you can.

We talk like we know what's going on, but we don't. We don't know anything. We're young and we're gonna screw-up a lot. We're gonna keep changing our minds and even sometimes our hearts and through all that, the only real thing we can offer each other is forgiveness.

Stay mad as long as you can. Because once you're not mad anymore, it hurts. It hurts like hell and once it hurts that bad, you can't make yourself mad anymore.

Maybe sometimes it's a good thing to stumble, because there's a better way to stand. Maybe we need to cry sometimes, because laughter cannot hide the worst. And maybe that's why we get hurt, for us to pass on the lesson and teach someone else.

Missing someone isn't about how long it's been since you’ve seen them last,
or the amount of time since you've talked.
It's about that very moment when you're doing something,
and you wish that they were right there with you

it`s amazing the things you realize when you lose someone:
you get mad at yourself for not saying the things you could've a million times, you take for granted the days spent doing nothing when you could have been with them. anyone can be taken, at any time in our lives, but we always wait until they're gone to say the things we never had the courage to before

What you want is what you want.
I’m not going to battle you anymore
If this is the way you want it to be
Then fine, just don't forget who I am
When you don't know what to do.

there's nothing like the deep breaths
after laughing that hard.
nothing in the world like a sore stomach
for the right reasons.
-- Perks of Being a Wallflower

Forget every regret you’ve ever had,
stop living in the past and look ahead.
Just forget all the pain inside you put
a smile on and move on with your life.

Love is all emotions, brought together cause of one person, anger if they`re taken, fear of rejection, sadness without them, happiness with them, it`s all these emotions that light the fires known as love, but all these emotions can also bring love crashing to the ground, keep your love in the right place.

We cling to music, to poems, to quotes,
to writing, to art, because we desperately
do not want to be alone. We want to
know we aren't going crazy and someone
else out there knows exactly how you're
feeling. We want someone to explain the
things we can't. We love everything tied
up neatly, easy, simple, and when we can't
do that, it scares the hell out of us. To not
know the next step, or where you're
headed, kills. Being unsure isn't in our
plans. But its those moments, the ones
where you risk it and step unknowingly
into the future that assures us
life is larger than we'll ever know

What's up with this 'perfect image'? There's no such thing as perfect, yet, here we are. Trying to dye our hair a certain color, going on diets to be thin, buying all the name brand stuff, and covering every single pimple with make-up. Give it up, no matter how 'perfect' you make yourself seem, someone's just going to pin-point one thing that's 'not perfect' and in the end, it's not even worth it.

the day i met you my life changed, the way you make me feel is hard to explain. you make me smile in a special kinda way, you make me fall deeper for you everyday & when i look into your eyes i know  it's true there`s no one else in the world for me but you.

No matter what fight for the truth
Don't abandon your morals or lose your ambition
Ask for honesty and you'll receive it, but if you don't
You'll only be left lied to and trampled on

Dream big. Dont stop until you succeed.
Anything can happen. You have to have
the courage to stand up for what you want.
go out, and get it.

some things don't last forever, but some things do,
like a good song or a good book, or a good memory
you can take out and unfold in your darkest times;
pressing down the corners and peering in close,
hoping you still recognize the person you see there.

There once was a little boy who had a bad temper. His father gave him a bag of nails & told him that every time he lost his temper, he must hammer a nail into the back of the fence. The first day the boy had driven 87 nails into the fence. Over the next few weeks, as he learned to control his anger, the number of nails hammered daily gradually dwindled down. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence. Finally the day came when the boy didn`t lose his temper at all. He told his father about it & the father suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day that he was able to hold his temper. The days passed & the young boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone. The father took his son by the hand & led him to the fence. He said, "You have done well, my son, but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same. When you say things in anger, they leave a scar just like this one. You can put a knife in a man & draw it out. It won't matter how many times you say "I'm sorry", the wound is still there. A verbal wound is as bad as a physical one. Friends are very rare jewels, indeed. They make you smile & encourage you to succeed. They lend an ear, they share words of praise & they always want to open their hearts to us."

we look back on the past
like its a bad thing;
it may have been,
but we chose it.
we choose how we want to live,
we choose who we live it with,
& we choose which path to take;
so which one will you take?

it`s funny how it all works out sometimes,
how the ones you love the most
end up breaking you the worst

don`t let your chance pass you by
because if you take time
to realize that they`re what you wanted,
someone else will already have realized that

hold on to a best friend when you find one
because i bet that in your entire lifetime,
you won't find anybody else like them.

i am nowhere near perfect. i eat when i'm bored and i fall for the wrong boys, i'm vulnerable to believing lies i'm hoping that one day i wont need a fake smile. i live by quotes that explain exactly what i'm going through; i make up excuses for everything. i have best friends and enemies, i have drama and memories and that's life.
live it. love it. learn from it.

dreams aren't meant to be understood
any more than tragedies can be avoided.
life happens to us --
the only certainty in all of it is that it  
just keeps happening.

Side by side or miles apart,
You will always be in my heart.
So when that day comes for us to say our good-byes,
Remember this... You are my everything.
I don't know how I could get through without you.
So just don't forget this friendship
And know that I am always a phone call away
To tell you everything will be ok.

don't dwell on the past. your history can't be erased, but you're future has yet to be written. make the most of what's going to happen instead of worrying about what you can't change. don't waste your time being sad, because you're wasting away the moments you could be happy.

we sing so loud its annoying
in the car we dance like we are super stars
we laugh like there is no tomorrow.
and we act so retarded together its amazing
but in the end, the only thing that matters is
that we are together.

I've learned a lot. I've learned that everything happens for a reason. I've learned that everyone I've met has helped megrow & learn in some way, whether they've been there as support or to make my life a living hell; it helped me learn. I've learned to just accept the things that are given to me in life & not question things too much -- I've learned not to take things too seriously because it stresses a person out too much, & that, like many other things, will give you cancer! I've learned to accept certain things,suck it up,kept my head up,& continued on with life as if nothing happened, like it didn't bother me at all. I learned that I had to change that sentence because if you  pretend that nothing happened, you will never learn from your mistakes + I've learned that you have to make mistakes in order to learn from them. I've learned that you can't depend on anyone else but yourself, so in the end, all you really have is yourself && I know whatever doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger.

And even when you've paid enough, been pulled apart or been held up
With every single memory of the good or bad faces of luck
don't lose any sleep tonight
I'm sure everything will end up alright
You may win or lose
But to be yourself is all that you can do

-Be Yourself , Audioslave

comment! :]

   Entry 11; One Tree Hill <333

Brooke: What's your idea of your perfect date?
Haley: Watching you get hit by a bus.
Brooke: And a sense of humor. Nathan’s really lucky.

Peyton: Can we be friends again?
Brooke: Sure.
Peyton: Like before?
Brooke: I don't think so, like before is gone, Peyton.

Lucas: Have you ever wondered what marks our time here? If one life can really make an impact on the world...or if the choices we make matter? I believe they do. And I believe that one man can change many lives. For better...or worse.
Keith: Just breathe, Lucas. It's all gonna be okay.

Lucas: Peyton! It's you.
Peyton: What?
Lucas: When all my dreams come true, the one I want next to me. It's you. It's you Peyton.

Nathan: I need to ask you a question. If I don't go to Duke, if I don't play college basketball- I mean if today is the best it ever gets for me, will that be enough?
Haley: Of course! Nathan, as long as you are a good husband and a good father to your son.
Nathan: What?
Haley: It's a boy Nathan. You're gonna have a son! Although I have to tell you, someday he's gonna tease his father for playing like crap at the state championship. You might wanna change that.

Skills: You said "Oh!"? Hold on. Peyton Sawyer says "I'm in love with you" and you say "Oh"? Nice work player!
Lucas: She caught me by surprise, what was I supposed to say, huh?
Skills: Not "Oh". Ok, what else did you say?
Lucas: I mumbled something about us being friends and then I left.
Skills: You believe that? That you and P. Sawyer are just friends!?
Lucas: Look, you know what Skills? For a long time I thought that maybe we'd be something more. It just never seemed to work out, you know? So, at a certan point you just gotta face the fact that it's not meant to be.
Skills: Even if she wants more?
Lucas: She's just a little confused. She's had a hard year and I happened to be there and rescue her a few times.
Skills: So maybe you're the one who's confused! Cause you didn't just happen to rescue her a few times. You didn't just happen to run into the school that day or save her from psycho-Derek. Peyton happened to be there, but you chose to be there. So, maybe you gotta think about that.

Lucas: There comes a time when every life goes off course. In this desperate moment you must choose your direction. Will you fight to stay on the path while others tell you who you are? Or will you label yourself? Will you be honored by your choice? Or will you embrace your new path? Each morning you choose to move forward or to simply give up.

Haley: Stay the hell away from my husband.
Rachel: I was just giving him a proper thank you.
Haley: Please, your thank you's send people to the free clinic.
Peyton: Ha!!!
Brooke: What are you laughing at? Your "I love you"'s send people to their grave.
Peyton: Well in that case, I love you, Brooke.

Lucas: You ever look a picture of yourself, and see a stranger in the background?. It makes you wonder how many strangers have pictures of you. How many moments of other peoples life have we been in. Were we a part of someone's life when their dream came true or were we there when their dream died. Did we keep trying to get in? As if we were somehow destined to be there or did the shot take us by surprise. Just think, you could be a big part of someone elses life, and not even know it.

Lucas: There are moments in our lives when we find ourselves at a crossroad, afraid, confused, without a roadmap. The choices we make in those moments can define the rest of our days. Of course when faced with the unknown, most of us prefer to turn around and go back.

Officer (to Rachel): I understand you were inebriated. Several witnesses say you made a bit of a scene at the reception, said you were pretty upset with him. Now, when you're up to it, we're gonna need to take your statement about what happened on that bridge. I'm especially interested to hear how a professional driver could just lose control of a vehicle like that. I mean, I have my theory, but, for your sake, you better hope he wakes up and tells me that I'm wrong.

Nathan: You know it's been said that we just don't recognize the significant moments of our lives while they are happening. We grow complacent with ideas, or things or people and we take them for granted and it's usually not until that thing is about to be taken away from you that you've realized how wrong you've been that you realized how much you need it, how much you love it. God, I love this game.

Nathan: Every once in a while people step up, they rise above themselves. Sometimes they surprise you, and sometimes they fall short. Life is funny sometimes, it can push pretty hard, but if you look close enough you find hope in the words of children, in the bars of a song and in the eyes of someone you love. And if you're lucky, and if you're the luckiest person on this entire planet, the person you love decides to love you back.

Ellie: Every song has a CODA, a final movement. Whether it fades out or crashes away. Every song ends. Is that any reason not to enjoy the music? The truth is, there is nothing to be afraid of. It's just life.

Brooke: There are 82 letters in here, and they're all addressed to you. I wrote them all this summer. One a day, but I never sent them 'cause I was afraid....I was afraid of getting my heart broken again, like before. 'Cause you hurt me so bad, and I was afraid to be vulnerable. And I was afraid of you and the way that you make me feel. And I know that doesn't matter now after what I did, but I just thought that you should know. This was how I spent my summer Luke, wanting you... I was just too scared to admit it.

Peyton: At this moment there are 6,470,818,671 people in the world. Some are running scared. Some are coming home. Some tell lies to make it through the day. Others are just now facing the truth. Some are evil men, at war with good. And some are good, struggling with evil. Six billion people in the world. Six billion souls. And sometimes -- all you need is one.

Lucas: Peyton, you gotta talk to me. What’s going on with you?
Peyton: I’ve been getting these creepy e-mails lately. And then tonight, this woman shows up and she knew things about me.
Lucas: What kinda things?
Peyton: She said she’s my mother! My mom’s dead, Luke. I was there in the hospital! I watched her die!

Nathan: So, what’re you doing here anyway? Tour playing Tree Hill?
Haley: No. They wanted me to become a solo artist and record a record or something, but, it didn’t matter without you. None of it mattered without you.

Brooke: Okay, putting aside the fact that I do look pretty good considering I've been on a plane for like a day and a half, you cannot ambush me at the airport with flowers and a nicely tanned end of summer body, considering the way we left things...three months ago.
Lucas: Actually I'm just here to pick up my mom from New Zealand. I didn't think you were coming in until tomorrow.
Brooke: You thought wrong. Oh, look, there’s my cab; quick, maybe you can tell me you love me or something!

Brooke: LUCAS! Do not make me join you!
Lucas: Uh, a little privacy here.
Brooke: No, you've been in the shower forever! By the time I even get in the water it's gonna be...(Checks water) cold! Are you taking a cold shower?!
Lucas: No, the hot water-
Brooke: Gross! You are! You know what? Next wet dream, tell Peyton I said 'Hi'. Ew!

Brooke:(Brooke's Election Speech): I thought I knew you. But I guess it's easier to see what we want than to look for the truth. You think you know me but you don't. And that means you don't know what I can do. You see me as someone popular and has all the answers but that's not true. I may not always know what I'm doing but I'll try to make things better. And when I make a mistake, because face it, we all do, I promise I'll ask for your help. I can't do this alone, but if you'll take a chance on me, we can do great things together. I promise if you believe in me, I'll find the courage to reach for your every dream. John F. Kennedy said, "the courage of life is a magnificent mixture of triumph and tragedy. A man does what he must, in spite of personal consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers and pressures. And that is the basis of all morality".

Haley : Wait a second, you...you don't have a bed, do you? Did you...tell me, you didn't have sex in my bed, Brooke.
Brooke: I'm already washing your sheets.

Deb: How did we become so broken?
Keith: We fell in love, and at some point, the people we love forgot to love us back.

Haley: Well, did you have fun tonight slave boy? Thanks for playing along.
Luke: Look, Haley, I know we've grown apart a bit lately, and I know we have a lot ahead of us, but I just want you to know I'll always be there for ya. And if Nathan doesn't see how special you really are, well then he's an idiot, cause I think your amazing.

Peyton: Nearly midnight, looks like our dates almost over.
Nathan: Yeah, I think I was hitting on ya in the pool.
Peyton: You think you were?
Nathan: I don't know anymore, this whole good guy thing is new to me. I guess I'll always have feelings for you, Peyton, but I owe it to Haley to be a better guy than I've been. I just don't wanna be the kind of guy that cheats on her.
Peyton: Then don't be. Nathan, I'm proud of you, you know standing up to your dad, being a good guy for Haley, you've turned into the guy I always knew you could be.

Haley: No way!
Peyton: Haley, come on, remember when I made you those flyers for Open Mic Night.
Haley: That is really unfair, your a born artist, I'm a born klutz okay, I, I, almost drowned in the balls at Chuckie Cheese.
Peyton: Okay, but if we don't find a replacement we're gonna have to forfeit.
Haley: Don't you guys lose every year since grade school anyway so what's the big deal?
Peyton: It's important to Brooke. Do you know how terrible it is to be disconnected from your best friend? Look I really hurt Brooke and I just don't want her to be disappointed again.

Luke: Brooke, I'm sorry.
Brooke: Yeah, sorry you got caught.
Luke: No, I didn't mean to hurt you.
Brooke: You did not just say that to me.
Luke: Look we didn't plan any of this it just happened.
Brooke:Go to hell!

Brooke: Hey, I want you to know that I'm here for you and whatever you need and if she's not home I might actually give you a sponge bath.
Luke: Actually, I can't do that for awhile.
Brooke: What, bath?
Luke: No, you know, sex.
Brooke: Wow, that sucks. A little cardio maybe just what ya need. What?
Luke: I'm going to need some time to figure some stuff out.
Brooke: Whatever you need, I'm here for you.
Luke: Yeah, see that's the thing.
Brooke: Are you breaking up with me?
Luke: I just think its the best thing for right now.
Brooke:Maybe for you.
Luke: Brooke, I'm sorry.
Brooke: Apparently not enough.

Haley: Nathan, I'm not in the mood right now.
Nathan: Lucas is awake, I was there when he opened his eyes, I went to see him.
Haley: Why?
Nathan: Because I knew you couldn't, I wanted him to know that you were thinking about him. Look I know it was wrong to go after you for the reasons I did, I can't apologize for that, but I'm glad I did, but I'm not that person anymore because of you. Let me take you to him.

Nathan: Hey, man. (Talking to Luke lying in the hospital unconscious.) I came here to talk to you. So, I'm here because, uhh, everything is screwed up, look I know you don't trust me with Haley, but I like her a lot, you know. She's hurting a lot now, too. She needs you to open your eyes, man. She feels like she can't be forgiven and I'm sort of in the same place. This accident it might not turn out so bad ya know, you can take a break from the game and people's expectations, I wish I had that chance. It might be hard to believe, but maybe your the lucky one you can get out. (Luke wakes up.) Hey.

Haley: So this uh, dinner is going to be pretty bad huh?
Nathan: Yeah, a massacre, my grandma's okay, its just my grandpa's pretty intense. You've met my dad, just imagines where he comes from.
Haley: Scary.
Nathan: Yeah, you should come tonight, maybe you'll make everyone behave.
Haley: I'll come if you want me, too.
Nathan: No, I wasn't serious, I wouldn't put you through that.
Haley: No, I mean if you're asking, of course, my answer is yes.
Nathan: Well, then I'm asking.
Haley: Well, then I'm coming.

Luke: Your sure your parents won't come home?
Brooke: They could, but this isn't their jacuzzi.
Luke: Brooke, whose house is this?
Brooke: I don't know, does it matter?

Lucas: It's not that hard. Peyton and I just don't make sense as a couple. She said so herself.
Haley: And then took it back!
Lucas: What are you, her lawyer?
Haley: I'm just... look, I've seen Peyton really try to make an effort to turn things around. It just sucks she got bit the first time she reached out to somebody, you know?
Lucas: Haley, I'm not the bad guy here, okay? Peyton's just too...hard.
Haley: Unlike Brooke, who I understand is nice and easy.
Lucas: She makes me laugh. She's honest. She's not afraid to be herself. Plus, she's not covered head to toe in issues.

Entry 10;; Some of the quotes are overlapping at the end, but if you copy and paste them they all come out the same [=

&& the truth is
we hide so we can be found
we walk away to see who will follow
we cry to see who will wipe away our tears
&& we get our hearts broken to see
who will come and fix them

We just have to accept that people are gonna stay in our hearts, even when they don't stay in our lives.

Well, I didn't mean for this to go as far as it did. I didn't mean to get so close to you & I really didn't mean to fall in love. But what can I say? I guess I did.

Titanic<3333

I look at you, looking at me, now I know
why they say the best things in life are free

i wanna be the reason for the smile on your face and
the one girl in your life that can never be replaced

I want to believe that people can change, but at the end of the day.. you are who you are and who you've always been

You're only young once, so be bad, break the rules, get caught... & make it count

as i lie awake in bed,
a million throughts run through my head
like why do i love you as much as i do?
then i realize it's because you're you

since the first day we met
i knew you`d be hard to forget.

When agirl is quiet, millions of things are running in her mind. When a girl is not arguing, she is thinking deeply. When a girl looks at you with eyes full of questions, she is wondering how long you will be around. When a girl answers "I'm fine" after a few seconds, she is not at all fine. When a girl stares at you, she is wondering why you are lying. When a girl lays on your chest, she is wishing for you to be hers forever. When a girl wants to see you everyday, she wants to be pampered. When a girl says I love you, she means it. When a girl says "I miss you", NO ONE in this world can miss you more than that.

It sucks when your walking down the hall,
&& someone asks "What's wrong?" & you
tell them, "I don't feel good". And when they
go "Aww what hurts ?" All you want
to say is its just my heart

sometimes i wanna push you into
oncoming traffic ; but then i realize
i`d kill myself trying to save you ..

&& I wish my mom told me the truth about people as she did scary movies-
don't worry honey... they're all fake.

One of the worst feelings in the world is having to
doubt something you thought was unquestionable

so i`ll walk the plank
and jump with a smile.
cus  if i`m going down,
i`m doing it in style.

life isn't waiting for the storm to pass,
it's learning to dance in the rain

Men Are Like..
-LAXATiVES; they irritate the crap out of you.
-BANANAS; the older they get, the less firm they are.
-WEATHER; nothing can be done to change them.
-BLENDERS; you need one, but you're not quite sure why.
-CH0C0. BARS; sweet, smooth, & they usually head right for your hips.
-C0MMERCiALS; you can't believe a word they say.
-DEPARTMENT ST0RES; their clothes are always 1/2 off.
-G0VERN. B0NDS; they take so long to mature.
-MASCARA; they usually run at the first sign of emotion.
-P0PC0RN; they satisfy you, but only for a little while.
-SN0WST0RMS; you never know when they're coming, how many
inches you'll get, or how long it will last.
-LAVA LAMPS; fun to look at, but not very bright.
-PARKiNG SP0TS; all the good ones are taken, the rest are handicapped.

isn't it better just to cling to the dream of what could have been,
than to ruin everything with reality?

music my antidrug?
ha. no. see because
well, for me, its
more like my drug
because thats
what i get high on. [=

fine- i admit it
you're the guy i cant stop thinking about
the guy who makes me wanna scream
the one who can make my day in a million ways
the one i write my love quotes about
the one i can't stop talking about
in case you were wondering,
yeah- that guy is Y O U

There might be a lot of things that I
don't understand in life, but one thing I
do know is that I'm happy around you

people are like crayons
its not the color they are
its the pictures they make

drama is like reality TV shows
it's interesting the first few times
until there's just so much of it
it makes you wanna turn off the TV

 entry 9

I mean, I got everything I need right here with me. I got air in my lungs, a few blank sheets of paper. I mean, I love waking up in the morning not knowing what's gonna happen or, who I'm gonna meet, where I'm gonna wind up. Just the other night I was sleeping under a bridge and now here I am on the grandest ship in the world having champagne with you fine people. I figure life's a gift and I don't intend on wasting it. You don't know what hand you're gonna get dealt next. You learn to take life as it comes at you... to make each day count. -Titanic

cinderella walked on broken glass.
sleeping beauty let a whole lifetime pass.
belle fell in love with a hideous beast.
pocahontas risked her life for a feast.
jasmine could have anyone, instead she chose a poor man.
and ariel walked on land.
all for life and love.
blood, swet, and tears.
love is about facing your fears

I really don't think people change, you know?
At the end of the day, you are who you are,
And at the end of the day it's probably who you've always been.
-One Tree Hill

 Hearts will never be made practical
until they are made unbreakable.
-Tin Man

I never knew I had a dream
Until that dream was you.
~Bon Jovi

Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking by yourself in the light.

There’s gonna be times in life where you just keep falling.
Don’t waste your energy trying to climb back up.
Chances are you won’t get very far before you fall down again,
So just make the best out of it and build a castle right where you are.

"You don't love someone because they're perfect. You love them in spite of the fact that they're not."
-My Sister's Keeper

"You know what... Fuck beauty contests. Life is one fucking beauty contest after another. You know, school, then college, then work... fuck that." "You do what you love and fuck the rest."
-Little Miss Sunshine

"There are some people who fall in love over and over. And there are others who can only seem to do it once."
-Forever in Blue: The Fourth Summer of the Sisterhood

"Cause you know what? Tragedies happen. What are you gonna do, give up? Quit? No, i realize that now that when your heart breaks, you gotta fight like hell to make sure you're still alive, cause you are. And that pain you feel, that's life. The confusion and fear, thats there to remind you that somewhere out there theres something better and that something is worth fighting for." -One Tree Hill

"You ever wonder how long it takes to change your life?
What measure of time is enough to be life-altering? Is it four years, like high school? One year? An eight-week rock tour? Can your life change in a month, a week, or a single day? We're always in a hurry to grow up, to go places, to get ahead. But when you're young, one hour can change everything." - One Tree Hill

Time changes everything. That's what people always say, but it's not true. Doing things changes everything. Not doing anything leaves them exactly as they were.

too often, the thing you want the most
  is  the  one  thing  you can't  have .
  desire leaves us heartbroken, it wears us out.
  but as tough as wanting something can be,
  the  people  who  suffer  the  most ,
  are those who don't know what they want.

See beauty even in the darkest light
Don't let pain put you to sleep, 
let it wake you up 
and remind you to keep looking for happiness
that will outshine it

We  won't  say  our  goodbyes
You know it's better  that  way
We  won't break, we won't die
It's  just a moment of change
All    we    are,   all   we   are
is   everything    that's    right
All   we  need,  all  we  need
A  lover's  alibi

 Looking at you, holding my breath
   For once in my life I'm scared to death
   I'm taking a chance letting you inside.

=)

entry 8

entry 8;; some of the quotes at the bottom are strikethrough, and i cant figure out how to get rid of it =/

When you look at a person, any person, remember that
everyone has a story. Everyone has gone through something
that has changed them.

You know you're in love
when you can't fall asleep
because reality is finally
better than your dreams

the summer's gonna bring us 
back to the place where 
we're supposed to be.
the sun works wonders   
on your smile.

It is better to die on your feet then to live on your knees

Friendship isnt about being inseparable, its about                 
                 being separated & knowing nothing will change

if you take my hand
i'll hold yours forever

Lets become little old ladies together.
Well stay up late looking at old pictures
Telling 'remember when' stories,
& laughing till our sides ache.
Lets become eccentric together -
The kind of old ladies who take long walks,
Wear silly hats, & get away with acting
Outrageous in public places.
& if anybody asks us how long we've been friends
We'll say Oh forever ;; since before you were born!
Lets become little old ladies together
Because a friendship as special as ours
Can only grow better through the years

And things I want to say to you
Get lost before they come
The only thing that's worse than one is none

And the sky and the snapshots remind you                        
            I trust you and I'm always going to miss you

Maybe we accept the dream has become a nightmare. We tell ourselves that reality is better. We convince ourselves it's better that we never dream at all. But, the strongest of us, the most determined of us, holds on to the dream or we find ourselves faced with a fresh dream we never considered. We wake to find ourselves, against all odds, feeling hopeful. And, if we're lucky, we realize in the face of everything, in the face of life the true dream is being able to dream at all.

Some people believe that without history, our lives amount to nothing. At some point we all have to choose: do we fall back on what we know, or do we step forward to something new? It's hard not to be haunted by our past. Our history is what shapes us... what guides us. Our history resurfaces time after time after time. So we have to remember sometimes the most important history is the history were making today

I think you're truly something special
just what my dreams are made of                                                                                lets stay together you and me boy
there's no one like you around

Being beautiful can never hurt, but you have to have more. You have to sparkle, you have to be fun, you have to make your brain work if you have one.                    -Sophia Loren

What do you do when you lose before you start? When everything that you ever wanted crashes down & burns? When your dreams are too high to reach? What do you do?

please don't grow up without me. hold my hand and
look me in the eye. fall asleep with me just one more
time. tell me that we'll always be best friends.

I cant be with someone who has doubts, no matter how small they are. I need someone who wants to be with me as much as I want to be with them. I dont want just part of your heart, I want all of it.

People ask why I look at the stars and smile and cry at the same time. I simply tell them that the stars hold many more secrets, hardships, broken promises, hopeful wishes, and heartaches then you could possibly imagine, and yet, they stay so calm and beautiful to every eye, so hopeful to everyone couple, and so wonderful to everyone with a wish in the sky and a heart that made it.

too many people are thinking of security

instead of opportunity 

they seem to be more afraid of life than death.

Don't you ever wonder what it would be like if you only had a few more days to live?
Would you expose those stowed away thoughts of someone around you?
Would you live those last few days like you've never lived before?
And wouldn't you be wondering what others had to say to you when they felt they had no chance to ever do so?

cor te reducit. it means,
"the heart leads you back"
it means no matter where
you go after you leave this place,
your heart will always
lead you back here.
it means there's always
a place for you here. and it means
I'll always be here for you, too.

best friends;
a girl who drops whatever she's doing,
just to come over and say hello
when you really need to talk.

I still remember the first day we met,
the first time we hugged,
the first time we kissed,
the first time you told me you loved me,
the first time I knew,
I wasn't going to ever live without you.

Say what you mean, and mean what you say
because the people that matter don't mind
and the people that mind, don't matter

Lifes a party ; so live it up

being lonely isn't the worst feeling in the world. it's
being forgotten by someone you could never forget

One day I’ll look back at my life
and realize how stupid I was for loving him
so much and not being able to let go.
Oh how I wish that day will come soon

the tough thing about following your heart
is what people forget to mention. that
sometimes your heart brings you to places
you shouldnt be. places are as scary as they
are exciting, & as dangerous as they are
alluring. & sometimes your heart takes you
to places that can never lead to a happy ending.
& thats not even the difficult part. the difficult
part is when you follow your heart, you leave
it normal, you go into the unknown, & once
you do, you can never go back

Oh, the summertime.
we could ride, we could ride,
take my hand and watch the world go by.
laugh or cry, we'll need to try;
get off the line, time to fly,
Oh, the summertime.

those nights
   when you can't sleep,
maybe it's because you're
 awake in someone else's dreams

waste time with your friends live for the moment
laugh often be immature, do anything
and everything, if its something you'll regret in the morning
sleep late and when you wake up..
laugh about it with your friends
cause friends are what matter most

life is like an ocean;
it can be calm and still
or rough and rigid.
but in the end
its always beautiful

Life's our own dance floor,
so lean wit it, rock wit it while
everyone is watching you snap yo
fingers to every rap song and
live your life like something's
always going down.

everybody wants to be the sun that
lights up your life. but i`d rather be
the moon. so i can shine on you
during your darkest hour of the
darkest day when your sun isn`t around.

It's hard to watch people change
right in front of you.
But the worst part
is remembering
who they used to be

she just smiles because she knows
the world will never really understand her,
but she doesn't mind; it doesn't matter.
she's happy anyway.
