before finals post!

"If you choose between two guys, always pick the second one;

if you really loved the first one, you would have never thought of the second one."

"I know there's something between us,

whatever that something is, I know it's there

and I know he knows too."

"No I shouldn't like him. Because I know it's not working,

so I convince myself I don't. And then I see him and he'll smile,

and put his arm around me, or just say anything, and then all that 

logic and convincing myself evaporates."

"I've tired forgetting but that doesn't work. 

So I've come to terms with who you are and 

who you've been. The only thing I wish you 

could see is what you really could be. Your

past doesn't make you decide who you are.

And I know your not sorry, but I've forgiven you."

"I feel like I'm forcing myself to like him, 

to hold on. Like I'm not content with just being on my 

own. Because when I don't like someone there is nothing to

look forward to. Nothing to get me out of bed in the morning and 

look cute. But then again there is no disappointment either."

"You almost convinced me you were gonna stick around, 

but everybody knows, almost doesn't count."

"There are some things that are nothing more than 

what they are; they're not meant to last. They just 

take their place in your heart and make you a little

smarter the next time."

"Someone asked me the other day if my glass

was half empty or half full. I was going to say 

empty, but that's not completely true. My life

isn't void and I have my happy moments, but 

they usually seem to disappear, or get worse.

So, my glass is cracked, yes - cracked. It gets

filled up with happiness and hope, but it always

ends up escaping my grasp. It always ends up

emptying out. It will never be full because 

it's always leaking and one day, it will be thrown 

away, because no one wants a broken glass."

"Every time our eyes meet, this feeling

inside me is almost more than I can take."

"He was in the habit of taking things for granted.

Granted, there wasn't much for him to take.

And the only constant was the constant reminder 

he'd never change."

"We have voices and stories and plans and dreams

and ideas. We have hope we will wake up tomorrow

to a day that has never been known. We are living a life that has

never been lived. We are here for a reason. We exist to love 

and be loved. Life comes back, things do change, storms do pass."

"Don't waste your precious breath explaining

that you are worthwhile."

"Her heart is breaking as she's staring at 

every single girl that walks by, somehow thinking

that they're better than her. Tonight, she'll lie awake,

and tear herself down, because that's what she's best at.

She's just one of those girls that no matter how many times 

she's told, never believes that she's beautiful."

"I'm finally learning that even if the grass

is greener on the other side, it's still 

pretty green over here."

"I know you think of me as just a friend, and that 

crossing that line is the furthest thing from an option

you'd ever consider. But I have to say it... I can't stand

next to you without wanting to hold you. I can't look

into your eyes without feeling that longing you only

read about in trashy romance novels. I can't talk to you 

without wanting to express my lobe for everything you are."

"Chin up, put your shoulders back, walk proud, strut a little.

Don't lick your wounds, celebrate them. The scars you bear are 

the signs of a competitor. You're in a lion fight, just because you 

didn't win, doesn't mean you don't know how to roar."

"Would I say we had history? No, because

that implies that we had something worth remembering.

See, all it was, was a delusional girl, and a boy who 

couldn't being himself to give a damn."

  

"I do not regret the time I spent with you.

No, not at all. Because form all of this, I've

learned a valuable lesson. Don't settle, not ever."

"Always getting what I don't want, 

and always wanting what I can't get."

"I like to daydream, because for a couple

minutes I have a life I wish I had, 

but then I open my eyes to reality."

"If he wanted to, he would right?

Otherwise it' just false hope. But 

then again, he's such a gentleman, 

he'd keep it all inside. Or am I just 

making excuses for him again?"

"Feelings are not suppose to be logical."

"Someday, you do not know when, you will be 

driving down the road and someday, you 

do not know when, you will make a wrong turn.

At the end of the road, when your least expecting 

it, he will be there."

"Sometimes, someone comes along and makes you 

forget someone else. Remember, they're not better, 

they're just different."

"We must know where to stand in someone's 

life, otherwise, we might be giving the best of 

ourselves but receive the worst."

"If you don't live for something, 

you'll die for nothing."

"You didn't get to where you are today 

by worrying about tomorrow."

"Holding a grudge is letting someone

live rent-free in your hand."

"Lucky me, I found the right kind of love 

with the wrong kind of person."

"Just say what you mean and mean what you say. 

Don't expect someone to read your mind.

Don't play games with heads or hearts. Don't 

tell half truths and expect trust. When the full 

truth comes out, half truths are lies with pink ribbons.

Don't be cold to someone you care for. Indifference

hurts more than words."

"And I won't let your heart turn to stone, 

cause when I found you, my heart found home."

"I smile and act like nothing is wrong,

it's called: putting stuff aside and being strong."

"I was fearless, because that's what he wanted me to be.

Maybe it was better to be who he thought I was

than who I thought I was."

"I hate that, I really do, when people use honesty

as a cover for cruelty. You take a moral word like

honest, stick it next to something mean, and you can 

almost make an insult sound righteous. And if we're 

sensitive, we believe those insults. We forget that just 

because something is honest it is not necessarily the truth."

"Sometimes lies, especially the bad ones, 

are like flares thrown our onto the street;

meant as a warning of the accident that is up ahead."

"At any rate, love shouldn't be the answer.

It's not even the big question. It's more...

background music. The perfect background music."

"Here's the thing. About this guy. Sometimes

we are so convinced someone is throwing us a life

preserver that we don't notice that what they are 

actually doing is drowning us."

"Listen, I know these things are hard. If you really don't

want to see this boy anymore, then it's best to keep busy.

When you get time on your hands, that's when your mind

takes advantage. Give it an inch, it takes a mile. Then the phone's

in your hands and you don't know how it got there.

Take it from me, I've been there a thousand times. It's the 

weird, powerful battle."

"A secret. A secret is the heaviest thing in the world."

"She should have been better at losing him.

She'd had enough practice."

"Sometimes it is like your mind has a plan

that it hasn't even told to the rest of you yet."

"An earthquake is never graceful. Pressure

builds, and it's released. You just hope there's 

not too much damage. It makes you realize 

what matters, and to me that's family."

"Here she goes again. She swallows her tears, 

puts her heart on her sleeve, and acts like the girl 

everyone else wants her to be."

"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."

It's finals week so I thought I'd post a new update before my life is completely filled with studying! Bu hey, I get to go home Thursday night! So pumped! I hope everyone had a great weekend and has an awesome week! Love you!
