So for our Personality Development class (yes, this class exists) we were talking about the golden rule and about karma. I'm not a believer of karma but that isn't the point. We come across this quote that struck me: "Don't expect from others what you yourself are not                                                                     willing to do."
So tell me what's worse,  disappointment at something you shouldn't even be disappointed about or disappointment rooting from being willing to do too much for someone?


 
There are days when I feel like a white crayon. But no matter how lousy and reluctant and vulnerable I feel, sometimes a simple, "How was your day?" can fix me up. It doesn't take much.
 
because this song was playing the night I decided to get my "creative writing" on and because this title goes really well with what's next

"You know it will make or break you, and you're really really hoping it will make you. And if it does, you will first have to be broken to a million little pieces, for God know how long, before you're fully fixed and made up. And you're up in the early hours of morn' when need to go to class hours from now, drowning yourself in the pool of thoughts and the pain of foreseeing how much you'll hate yourself when the alarm goes off. You can't wait til daybreak but your fears won't let you sleep. You wish you were someone who can actually pull an all-nighter and stay up the next day but you're simply not. Your eyes are tired and so is your heart, so you finally get some sense in you and with all the pain and uncertainty, you lull yourself to sleep."

 
They're probably one of the most talented families ever. What are the odds that all sisters can sing really well??
 
As promised :)

Thanks for all the pig-out moments.
Thanks for all the treats, and peanut butter, and chocolate, and gummies and candy!
I remember you could be pretty mean when we were kids, and soooooo so bossy but no worries,
it's totally made up for :)) (you are still very bossy though, not that I'm complaining)
Thanks for wanting everything for me :) I now have a long growing list of everything I owe you now.
Don't worry, i'll finish college ASAP. :D

Anyway, stay gorgeous. Hope you find a really good guy. Stay healthy. Get rich. Please stop smoking.

"SOMETIMES THE PEOPLE WHO MOST NEED TO REACH OUT ARE LEAST CAPABLE OF IT"
 
"WE'RE NOT ANYBODY 'CAUSE WE'RE EVERYBODY"
 
I've been watching One Tree Hill again. I don't watch the recent seasons, just seasons 1-3. Everytime I rewatch the show, I cannot go past season 3. In high school, OTH was very timely I mean we graduated the same time they did (on the show). 

I guess it's obvious that I liked Brooke Davis the most. I loved her character. I related so well with the character. And when Lucas finally chose Peyton, I grieved for her character.

I love Brooke Davis and I guess I wanted so much to be like her before. It seemed like that for a while. But gawd after the whole Lucas Peyton thing, I so don't wanna be Brooke. To see her best friend and the boy she loves together, ugh painful. And what's probably even sadder is all along, she knew it would happen.
