Spring break this week, went to Iowa to visit a friend and drove back home today, longest drive ever, I don't wanna drive again for days! Here's a short update

When something unexpected comes along,
you just gotta pick it up and run with it.
- Remember the Titans.

Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.
++ Mother Teresa


There are alot of things about me
that aren't what you thought. But if you
love me, you have to love all things
about me.
-- Dirty Dancing

I, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naïve or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman.
--Anais Nin

Yay I have a second follower!! :) Today was a beautiful day, heres some therapy for today:

ONE

if you need to leave the world you live in, lay your head down and stay awhile. though you may not remember dreaming, something waits for you to breathe again.

TWO

You can't love someone else to change them. Happiness comes from accepting who they are. It is our decision to REALLY know who we love.

THREE

i am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. imagination is more important than knowledge. imagination encircles the world.
-einstein

FOUR

If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant: if we did not sometimes taste adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.

FIVE

to love what you do and feel that it matter s - how could anything be more fun?

Quotes always make the day better!

My week has sucked, I realized that I have no real friends just a lot of acquaintances that have better things to do than hang out with me.
I stupidly told a boy that I like him through text message and he hasn't answered back.
My 19th birthday is tomorrow and I have a feeling it's not gonna be any better, anyway, enough with my misery, here are some quotes:

ONE.

I hope life isn't a big joke, because I don't get it. ~Jack Handey

TWO.

We are born wet, naked, and hungry. Then things get worse. ~Author Unknown

THREE.

Maybe all one can do is hope to end up with the right regrets. ~Arthur Miller

FOUR.

…living is like licking honey off a thorn. ~Louis Adamic

FIVE.

I think everybody should get rich and famous and do everything they ever dreamed of so they can see that it's not the answer. ~Jim Carrey

Make a mistake with me

Is it sad that the two things that have made me most happy lately are finding clothes under $5 on clearance and when boys open doors for me?

Here are some quotes = to my feelings today

Life is all about taking chances, if you never take the risk you will never bask in the glory

"Just Breathe"

"If you get a chance, take it; if it changes your life, let it.

"Never let fear hold you back, life is shorter than you realize and you'll regret fear, so just jump and if you fall you can always find a reason to get back up and try again."

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step

When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.
~Helen Keller~

That which was meant to be, will be, and everything else is a distraction.

In life, no one has ever abused you more than you have abused yourself.

Let the world change you
so you can change the world

For what it's worth: it's never too late or, in my case, too early
to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit, stop whenever
you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to
this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make
the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you
feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a 
different point of view. I hope you live a life you're proud of. If you
find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.
