Marylin Monroe--"If you can make a girl laugh, you can make her do anything"
***
laughter is timeless imagination has no age and dreams are forever
***
Normal is absence of individuality.
***
in order to be irreplacable one must always be different.

unless its mad, passionate, EXTRAORDINARY LOVE it's a waste of your time. there are too many mediocre things in this world and love shouldn't be one of them.
***
Do more than exist, live.
Do more than touch, feel.
Do more than look, observe.
Do more than read, absorb.
Do more than hear, listen.
Do more than listen, understand.
Do more than think, ponder.
Do more than talk, say something.

she glances in the mirror and throws her hair up ripped jeans, an old hoodie -- they're all she needs. she runs out the door, five minutes before class starts and arrives just as the bell rings, cheeks flushed she doesn't try that hard at school and she plays sports because she likes the challenge. her rooms a mess and her cell phone's always dead, but she just smiles ; she knows the world is hers she has her enemies, she's made mistakes and she knows it. but she doesn't care. she's happy with who she is and who she has-- because that's all she needs.

I'd like to meet:

Love
he has the most adorable eyes you could ever fall for & the cutest smile that takes your breath away. he has the ability to make you laugh everytime he speaks & whenever you look into his eyes, it`s so hard to turn away

and i love that somebody like you sees something in somebody like me

all love stories have at least one thing in common - you have to fight against all odds to get there.

i've never felt like this before;; && maybe my judgment's a little poor but i've fallen for you, fallen so hard.

when you're in love, make sure that you really are in love &&not just in love with the idea of being in love.

~God gave us love to make the rollercoaster of life bearable.

without even realizing it you taught me a lot of things. not only about life but that it's okay to feel something extraordinary about someone.

I think that if two people are meant to be together, when they see each other they get this incredible feeling like none other. A special feeling that is amazing and they know that they want and are supposed to spend the rest of their life with that person..you just know

it seems to me that the best relationships.. the ones that last, are frequently the ones that are rooted in friendship.. you know, one day you look at the person & you see something more than you did the night before, like a switch has been flicked somewhere, & the person who was just a friend is.. suddenly the only person you can ever imagine yourself with..

she still remembers the day she met her first love. her first thought was "holy crap, he's annoying"

sitting here with you, you ask me why my tongue is tied i've tired to make some sense of all the things i feel inside i've been searching for the perfect words to say they've been said a thousand times but they mean more today cause im head over heels for you & all the things you do.

I think that if two people are meant to be together, when they see each other they get this incredible feeling like none other. A special feeling that is amazing and they know that they want and are supposed to spend the rest of their life with that person..you just know

In love, we all take risks. We all fall down. But you should never be scared to go a little further or a little crazier because in the end, the sweetest love is the one that made you lose control.

It's just so hard loving someone from a distance. Because no matter how far you reach, no matter how many tears you cry, miles you walk, & tantrums you throw, they won't be physically near you. And it's so hard to grasp that, but it's after the frustrations pass, you realize that you would rather hold their heart from miles away than sit at home wrapped in the arms of one you know you'll never love

its an amazing thing, you know - to have your best friend & your love all wrapped up in one incredible package.

the reason everyone looks for love is because it's the closest thing we have to magic.

you can tell a lot about a man by the woman he loves nothing else shows a part of his soul the way that she does.

no, it wasn't at first sight. but the moment i looked twice i saw the man i was born to love. his laughter fills my soul, and when i hold him, i don't want to let go. when it comes to him, i can't get enough.

he landed smack in the middle of your world & turned everything upside down until you were addicted to his smile. his voice filled your dreams and everything that didn't make sense before is all of a sudden perfect.

go ahead, take her hand. show her that a boyfriend's first of all a friend.

now that i fell in love with you, can't imagine being with anybody else.

and he said; "we're young but baby, this isn't puppy love. a thousand sunsets from now, i'll be right here next to you."

The better of a person you become-- the better of a person you'll attract.

a girl worth kissing, is not easily kissed

you make me sing love songs when i'm all alone

I can't even begin to explain this feeling. It's that can't-breathe feeling I get whenver I talk to you. It's that can't-stop-smiling feeling I get whenever someone says your name. It's that can't-stop-talking-about-you feeling I get when I tell my friends about you. It's that can't-stop-staring feeling I get when I look into those beautiful brown eyes of yours. It's that little flutter in the bottom of my stomach that I get while I'm writing this about you.

her voice became his passion, his love became her obsession. it was sweet, yet dangerous, just how she wanted it.

What I hate about the distance between us is that I'll never be able to hold your hand or feel your arms around me. I'll never be able to look in your eyes & tell you I love you to your face. It kills me to know that there are hundreds of girls that could hold my world, & I'm terrified that you'll soon realize that you won't need something that's so far away from you.

&& i could tell you his favorite color's green. he loves to argue, born on the sevententh. his sister's beautiful. he has his father's eyes, & if you asked me if i love him, i'd lie.

When you look for the right person, you always end up with the wrong one. But when you just sit by the corner & wait... he comes along & shares the corner with you.

Love is like a glass door—sometimes you don't see it, and then it smacks you right in the face.

Love is like a butterfly: the more you chase it, the more it will elude to you. But if you turn your attention toward other things. It will come sit softly on your shoulder.

Love is a behavior; not a feeling. It’s the way somebody treats you everyday, all day. Not just when their life is going well.

Sometimes all you wish for;; is for someone to wish for you

who are you thinking about while your reading these quotes?

love is like snow;; beautiful while it last

chasing after boys is not my thing. see, i'm waiting for a ring. no more dating, i'm just waiting.

remember that one day? when you looked at her, and she looked at you. & then she quickly turned away because she was embarrased? well, you pretty much made her the happiest girl alive that day.

i love how in those cute old films how the guy takes his girl in his arms and kisses her gently. I'm not sure what happened to those romantic guys.

Dear Girl ,
I thought i should let you know that i melted today, when i heard him call you beautiful...
Love always ,
Your Heart
I've found love. Not in any man. Oh no, I found love in joy
. I found love in laughter. I found love in self-confidence. I've discovered all the little things in life, that add up to the bigger things. And I have found love there.

~Love's not about him being perfect. It has nothing to do with how big your engagement ring is or how many roses he got you for Valentine's Day. It's not even about how many times he says "I love you" in a day. It's how many times he listened to you go on and on about your dream wedding. How many times he sent your favorite flower "just because." How many times you looked into his eyes and knew that it was love and knew that it was forever.

When I said I just wanted to be friends, I was hoping you'd catch me lying.

every once in while, people step up. they rise above themselves. sometimes, they fall short. life is funny at times. 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 i mean if you're the luckiest person on this entire planet, the person you love, decides to love you back.

and what she wants is pretty simple, just a sticky note in her locker saying i love you. or a daisy he found the morning stuck to her books. because it's the little things that mean the most.

a girl and a guy can just be best friends, but at one point or another [(believe iit or not)] they will fall for eachother maybe just temporarily or maybe just at the wrong tiime or even too late - maybee ..forever.. sure they won't say things, but that doesn't mean they don't feel them

life is a song and love is the lyrics

Love is like sleep. Sometimes it's deep, sometimes it's not. But you go crazy without it. And no matter what, you always fall into it.

He makes her laugh. her laugh makes him smile. his smile makes her world go round. she`s his world.

~Nothing lasts forever.
Can I be your nothing?

when you say i`m beautiful, i`m like "psh yeah right" but what i`m really saying is "do you really think so??"

every day i wake up and pray that he'll tell me he can't stand being "just friends"

~you know what? i want to be someone's reason for waking up,someone's reason for going through another day. just once,i want to be the one being wished for, i want a guy to say to himself, "im so lucky to have her."

~Tell me I'm cute. When I blush, shake my head, and turn away, make me look you in the eyes and tell me, "I'm sorry, I meant you're beautiful."

~The most romantic things in the world, without a doubt...are kisses on the forehead.

I want to be somebody's baby. I want to cry and still be beautiful.

~if i wake up tomorrow and your still just my friend i’ll stay up till 11:11 and make my wish again

wILL yOU bE mY lOSER?

~Like rain on a stormy Spring afternoon, I've fallen for you. Hard and fast.

love is when you walk all the way to the other side of the classroom to sharpen your pencil in order to walk by him, then realizing that your penicl is a mechanical one

If a boy really likes you, he doesn't care how tired he is. How much homework he has, or how late it is. He'll talk to you.

Yeah, I know there's a million fish in the sea. I got that part. But he's my nemo...

boy: hey, you dropped something.
girl: oh really, what?
boy: my jaw

~A girl worth kissing
does not kiss quickly.

~Sometimes i make you listen to these songs because the lyrics sing the words that i'm too scared to say.

The kisses you place on my forehead, when you think I’m asleep mean the most. Why? Because you did them because you wanted to, and not because you had to.

~Just for once I want a guy to look at me and think "man I really love this girl"

If you want to be loved, be lovable.

never ignore a gut feeling, but never believe it`s enough.
--kermit the frog

as soon as you get online, whose name do you look for first? when a slow song comes on the radio.. whose face comes to your mind first? when you hear your phone ringing.. who do hope it is calling? whose name makes your stomach drop when u hear it?

It's like one of those old fashioned movies, It's coming to an end and everyone's screaming at the screen; "TELL HIM YOU LOVE HIM" ..but you can't.

~The best feeling in the world is to catch him looking at you across a crowded room.

Someone asked me, Why do you like him so much? But before I could even reply, My best friend put her hand Over my mouth and said, "Don't even get her started"

~i want someone who will daydream about me in class, then the teacher will yell at him and tell him he needs to listen and he will say he's sorry and then he'll text me and say... you got me in trouble again

~if you like her, tell her. chances are she likes you twice as much.

The first symptom of love in a young man is shyness ;;The first symptom in a young woman, its boldness

hes the kind of guy who makes fun of me and when i go to walk away he grabs me and pulls me back into his arms and says "you know i love you ."

~The way into a girl's heart is an unexpected gift at an unexpected time.

All of the best loves stories have one thing in common: you have to go against all odds to get there.

Tell me, do you think I'm falling for him? All he means to me is a really good friend, someone who can make me laugh, make me smile, someone who I can joke around with, someone who I can be myself with. All he is to me is the person who gave me back my smile...I promise...

~When you walk into a crowded room I want to be the first person you look for.

She caught him completely unaware, knocking him head over heels without any effort, with one smile, she changed his whole life.

Just once I want someone to look at me and right away think I was beautiful. Not after they get to know me, or after they see inside my soul, just me. I want to walk in a room and light it up, not blend.

People say hate is a strong word but so is love and people throw it around like its nothing.

I don't want to be your whole world, just your favorite part.

~Just once, I wanna be hard to leave. I want to be the one he's up late at night thinking about. I wanna be the one he's telling his boys “I think I love her.”

[amor vincit omnia]
love conquers everything.

love is the most beautiful of dreams and the worst of nightmares.
--william shakespeare.

Every man has a chance to sweep any woman off her feet; he just needs the right broom.
–Hitch.

I don't know how you do it. But somehow, you manage to make me feel beautiful.

~I want someone who is more goofy than romantic, someone who would bet me $100 that he could beat me at all the old playstation games and buy tons of disposable cameras to take the silliest pics of each other. But mostly, someone who would be my best friend and would never break my heart. He would just make me smile.

most girls say they want a fairy tale, but you taught me that's not what i really want. i want someone who will make fun of me and laugh at my jokes even if they aren't funny and someone who wrestles with me and doesn't let me win just because i'm a girl. yeah, riding off into the sunset on a horse would be nice, but playing thumb wars with you would be so much better.

You're not my friend...friends don't look at each other the way we do.

~Behind every girl’s smile There’s a boy who put it there

Most people have a harder time letting themselves love then finding someone to love them.

Oh, I laughed kinda nervous. I felt you move closer and felt the world unwind. Once was a stranger, not quite a lover, But steadily crossing the line.

girl: what do you want to be when you grow up?
boy: your husband.

Perfect would be cuddled up on the couch with you, watching Finding Nemo and you tell me that you'll always come find me

if he caught you staring, at least you know he was looking back

I wonder when i pass by does his stomach do a flip? does he get nervous? does he ignore his friends, just to look at me? does he wait to see my smile? does he get sweaty palms? does he think to himself ... "oh gosh here she comes"?

I wonder if when his phone rings, he ever hopes it's me. I wonder if when he goes out, he prays I'll be there. I wonder if when he gets online, he waits for me to sign on. I wonder if when he goes to sleep, he dreams of me.

~I want to be the girl who makes him stay awake all night thinking about what to say to me.

After a while you just wanna be with the one who makes you smile.

Just think. There's someone out there dying to get you to notice them. Just think. Someone's laying down, staring at his ceiling, thinking only of your smile.

It's always nice to have someone that's afraid to lose you.

The best feeling in the world is knowing someone misses your smile.

~Just once in my life, I want someone else to kiss first. I want someone else to lie awake and wonder what the right words are, if they'll be rejected if they're ruining a great friendship. I want him to want me so much that he can't help himself, that he's willing to risk everything for a chance to be with me.

You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget.

She said, "I'm afraid of falling." And he whispered, "I have wings."

You and me, boy, we'd make the whole world jealous.

I like to feel his eyes on me when I look away.

I could kiss a million guys, and it still wouldn't mean as much as holding your hand.

I want a guy that doesnt care about what I wear or how I do my hair. Who loves my smile and my dorky laugh, and how I get hyper when I'm tired who would never want to see me cry -- at least not tears of sadness, and who would do those small things that make my day just because he knows it would make me happy.

Friendship
heres to the nights that turned into mornings and the friend's that turned into family.

A true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg even though they know you are slightly cracked.
--Bernard Meltzer

It’s sad, but sometimes moving on with the rest of your life starts with goodbye
- carrie underwood

I’m so scared of everything. I’m scared of how things will turn out when I’m gone. We may say our friendship will last forever, & I do believe our friendship is strong & will never fail cause neither one of us will allow it to, but we have no control over the distance that stands between us. It scares me knowing that you're going to be laughing & smiling with someone else other than me. & what scares me the most is that someone is going to take my place as your best friend. I can’t bare the thought that when I’m sad & crying, someone else is going to be here wiping my tears from my face. I know a time is going to come soon when we have to part. But I ask myself why it can’t be later & not now. Our lives are going to change once we part, & I fear that so much

For where can we lay down the heaviness of our trouble but in a friend's heart?

A friend loves at all times.
--Proverbs 17:17

a good friend will comfort you when he rejects you. but a best friend will go up to him and say, "its because you're gay, isn’t it?"

Don't waste your friendship on the "cool kids", its the losers who you have the most fun with.

we're the kinda friends that if my house was burning down we wouldn`t be running as far away as we could...we'd be sitting there hitting on the firemen

We laugh, then laugh harder when we realize we don't know what we're laughing about.

Best friends never tell each other they're best friends - they just know.

yeah, we're tight like a fat kid in spandex.

best friends::
because it's nice to know someone understands

and we sat there, on the school bench, laughing and joking. and It was that moment when I realized, this is it. This is the last time we,ll ever be together, sitting in our group of friendship. But I knew, even though we wouldn't be together in person, we'd always be together in heart.

“Friends forever?” asked Piglet.
”Even longer,” Pooh answered.

We’re all a little weird, and when we find those people whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them, and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness and call them our best friends.

But the true friends will be there though all the hard times. They will be able to look past the fake smiles and know that something’s wrong. They will know your very worst and very best sides. They will be able to make you smile during the saddest of days. And when they cant relate to you they will still care and understand. And they love you despite your insecurities and flaws.

I look at all the pictures of the past thinking of how the years went by so fast – the dances, the parties, the jokes, the laughs, the shoulders to cry on, and cute photos, the people I’ve known since way back when the new kids came every now and then. The friendships you make come and go, but there's always those few you'll always know. Now as we go our separate ways, I know I’ll remember those days.

it doesn't matter how many friends you have, just how many you can actually count on.

this is for you, my best friend, the one person i can tell my soul to, who can relate to me like no other, who i can laugh with to no extent, who i can cry to when times are tough, who can help me with the problems of my life. never have you turned your back on me or told me i wasn't good enough or let me down. i don't think you know what that means to me. you have gone through so much pain and you still have time for me. and i love you for listening even when inside you are dying. and i look up to you because you are strong and caring and beautiful even though you don't think you are. and i hope you know that i am always here to listen to you laugh and cry and help in all the ways that i can. and i will try to be at least half the friend you are to me. i hope you know i would not be the person i am today without you.

friends are the roses of life: pick them carefully and avoid the thorns.

it`s those days where we sit around and doing nothing. it`s the moments we laugh so hard, we cry. it`s the way we look at eachother and know what`s going on through each other`s head it`s those stupid pictures and the jokes. those are the reasons we`re best friends

Singing along in a car packed full of your close friends, laughing and smiling having the best time of your life with the windows down and the sun shining bright now those are the days I live for.

Here's to the kids who's idea of a good time is sitting on the hood of their car, watching the stars.

Friends are more than just the people you hang out with.
I felt like crap. It was one of those days where I wanted to stay in bed all evening, safely away from the world. But you insisted. You had to come see me, and you wouldn't take no for an answer. And all at once when you arrived, I didn't feel so bad anymore.

Life
When life gives you lemons, make orange juice. Then sit back and watch everyone wonder how in the heck you did that.

Freedom comes when you learn to let go.

You’re never prepared for the moment that changes your life.

He who has nothing to die for has nothing to live for.

Just because something ends does not mean it never should have happened.

Be nice to every one you know because they're fighting a battle you know nothing about

wouldn't life be perfect if sweatpants were sexy, monday mornings were fun, junk food was healthy, friends didn't cause drama, guys weren't confusing, nothing was regretable, && good-byes only meant until tomorrow?

you might hide behind your computer screen. & i might hide behind my music, & she might hide behind her sports. but the truth of it is, we all have something that we're hiding. & maybe we should stop running for cover, because what might happen when those things can't defend us anymore?

~over the past year, i've learned so much about love & life. and even if i could, i wouldn't take back all the things i've that i've done because they got me here, to this moment

don't base your decisions on the advice of people who don't have to deal with the results.

in life you gotta take some risks--you cant steal second base and keep your foot on first

Allow yourself to dream a little today. You can face reality tomorrow.

You have to stand up for what you believe in and sometimes, you have to stand alone.

there will always be those people you can`t believe you were friends with.. guys you can't believed you kissed, and people you can't believe you lived without

Find out who you are and do it on purpose.
--Dolly Parton

Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The trouble makers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They aren't fond of rules. You can quote them, disagree with them, the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. While some may see them as the crazy ones, i see genius. Because the people who think they can change the world, are the ones that do.

i'm at this at this point in my life where i`m just daring someone to push me off a cliff, just to see if i'm strong enough to fly.

This is your life, right now. It doesn’t wait for you to get back on your feet

As human beings, sometimes It's better to stay in the dark, Because in the dark there may be fear, But there's also hope.
-Grey's Anatomy

In three words I can describe everything you'll ever need to know about life: it goes on.

Maybe some people aren't meant to be in our lives forever. Maybe some are just passing through to teach us a lesson.

It is hard to fail,but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.
--Theodore Roosevelt

Luck is when preparation meets opportunity.

Draw a line and live above it.

Success is often achieved by those who don't know that failure is inevitable.
–Coco Chanel.

~love, life, it's all the same. the falling is easy. it's getting up that's a pain.

~nothing that's worthwhile is ever easy. remember that.

To be safe is to be ordinary. Who will notice you then?

"If you didnt have that pain you wouldnt know what good felt like."
--Tyra Banks

when things are perfect, that's when you need to worry most.

In the long run the pessimist may be proved right, but the optimist has a better time on the trip.

~never say things can't get worse, because life will prove you wrong.

You shouldn't stress over people from your past. there's a reason why they didn't make it to your future.

Sometimes we put up walls, not to keep people out, but to see who cares enough to knock them down.

Maybe the key is to expect nothing, and when you're not all caught up in what you want to happen, something great will come along.

~Love me or hate me; it’s still an obsession.Inspirational
your past may be stained but your future is untouched

never let success go to your head, && never let failure go to your heart.

Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, then it's not the end.

I'm just... happy. I've never felt that before. I'm just exactly where I want to be."
-Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

There's something liberating about not pretending. Dare to embarrass yourself.

the little things? the little moments? they aren't little.

life. when it rains on your parade bust out the slip and slide.

Always tell someone how you feel. Mean what you say and say what you mean even when it's hard. Because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye, but regrets can last a lifetime.

No smile is more beautiful than the one that has struggled through the tears.

As long as we have memories, yesterday remains. As long as we have love, today is beautiful. As long as we have hope, tomorrow awaits.

Eventually all the pieces fall into place, until then, laugh at the confusion, live for the moment, and remember, everything happens for a reason

Breathe. Let go. And remind yourself that this very moment is the only one you know you have for sure.
-Oprah Winfrey

I’m just a normal girl who's comfortable with who she is. I don’t believe in changing yourself for anybody & I think it’s really important for girls to be as comfortable with themselves as possible

growing up sucks and not all kisses are magical and most boys dont live up to your expectations but there are those times when everything, i mean love, romance, relationships, it all falls together perfectly and its incredible. its those moments, no matter how depressingly few and far between, that make growing up worth it. and it'll be okay

There is an inner beauty about a woman who believes in herself, who knows she is capable of anything she puts her mind to. There is a beauty in the strength and determination of a woman who follows her own path, who isn't thrown off by obstacles along the way. There is a beauty about a woman whose confidence comes from experiences - who knows she can fall, pick herself up, and go on.

at some point you learn to accept the fact that the people you wish wouldn't change, do. goodbyes hurt, but only mean forever if you let them, pictures never replace being there and nothing lasts forever , but you also learn to laugh until your stomach hurts. act so crazy people think your high and live for the days with your best friends ;; just having fun because life's too short to worry about change

i dont believe that old cliche that good things come to those who wait. i think good things come to those who want something so bad, they cant sit still
-Ashton Kutcher

When you've reached the end of your rope, tie a knot and keep hangin on.

~BE NiCE T0 EVERY0NE Y0U MEET THEY C0ULD BE BATTLiNG S0METHiNG Y0U C0ULDNT iMAGiNE

the best kind of makeup is confidence

God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain. But He did promise strength for the day, comfort for tears and light for the way.

It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.
- E.E. Cummings

What would you attempt if you knew you couldn't fail?

Sometimes you just have to close your eyes and jump.

dont tell me the sky is the limit, when there are footprints on the moon

everything happens for a reason, some things fall apart, so other things can fall together, but in the end, what's meant to be will always find its way

~It’s weird to think about how different your life would be if you never met the people who changed it.

~Don't ask God to make life easier, ask him to make you a stronger person.

Don't cry about loss. God never takes anything away without replacing it.

Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass; it's about learning how to dance in the rain.

~i am always content with what happens for i know that what God chooses is better than what i choose.

if you only remember one thing in life, remember this: what's meant to be will always find a way no matter what, time tells all, act on good impulses, don't quit, never ignore the butterflies, and live without regret.

~thank God for what you have.
trust God for what you need.

You have to keep breathing because tomorrow, the sun will rise and you never know what the tide will bring.
---Cast Away

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

You'll never see the stars if your always looking down.

And shes not like the other girls. when she looks in the mirror, she doesnt see an ugly and fat girl whos a failure at life. She sees a girl who hasnt done much yet and isn't very pretty -- but whos going to change the world someday.

Miscellaneous
distance only comes between those who let it.

she's classy unlike all the other girls. she knows herself and she knows she's not perfect - but she spends her time having fun and doing the est she can with what she's got.

i just need a boy to come up to me & give me a hug & say, "i'm sorry my gender sucks."

don't ever let a boy build you up with his words, cause the higher you are, the harder you fall, and trust me, you always fall

Don't waste your time with people who don't make you feel alive.

i'm weird with relationships. i think i know what I want, then i run. i think i run cause i`m scared, i'm scared that I might get hurt. or maybe i just haven`t found somone who i know is worth being hurt for.

Be with someone who knows what they have when they have you.

I used to be afraid of being alone. Now I'm scared because maybe that's how I like to be.

I'm ready to get away from this town into a future where I am where I want to be doing the things I want to do.

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.

~A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step....unless you walk off a cliff. =)

Why is it that with guys, you're blind to all his flaws, but when it comes to you that's all you see?
++The Perfect Man

if you arent willing to risk it all then you dont want it bad enough

"The Marines I have seen around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale, and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!"
-- Eleanor Roosevelt

theres a difference between pretty & beautiful when someone is pretty, they have a good apperance. but when someone is beautiful, they shine on the inside & out

don’t cry, because someone is falling in love with your eyes. don’t scream, because someone is falling in love with your voice. don’t frown, because someone is falling in love with your smile. don’t hide, because someone is out there looking for you.

smile big for everyone;; even when you know what they've done.

She'll be beautiful when you tell her she is

never think you`re nothing. never cry at night over not being pretty enough. never tell yourself you`ll never be good enough. because to someone, you're everything. To someone, you`re gorgeous. to someone, you are their world

I'm just another silly teenage girl who keeps her hopes too high and her jeans too low. Who lives by quotes and can't ever seem to say the right thing at the right time. Just another pretty girl looking for herself in a big bad world. Who just wants someone to love her and then everything would be okay.

~do you ever wish you could die? but still be alive to see your funeral? just to see who would be there? just to see who would cry?

and don't we all hope for a boy, who, as we smooth and tug at our clothes, will grab our hands and smile and ask us, "now, what the heck are you trying to fix, beautiful?"

Jodi Picoult=favorite author. End of story. Ha, story. Get it?
the boy i want:
he loves God more than me
and more than himself
he compliments me
but not too much
he takes any chance he can get
to hold my hand
he isn't afraid to let his guard down
he listens to my stupid stories
and then laughs at/with me for telling them
he uses corny pick-up lines on me
just to make me laugh
even if they're partially true
he texts me every morning
to remind me he's still there
and still cares
he sees beyond my flaws
and tells me i'm pretty
he knows just what to say
to make me blush
he's not afraid to state his opinion
but accepts that mine may be different
he notices things about me
that i didn't know about myself
he gives me attention
but gives me space, if i want it
he doesn't like too much PDA
but finds it hard to be away from me
he argues with me
and gets me mad at him
only so he can kiss me and make it better
has great manners
would never think of letting me pay
but knows i have no problem with it
he is ambitious and has passion
about something-anything
he's naturally funny
and knows he doesn't have to work for my affection
even though he will always try
respects my love of sports
and my short attention span
he can read my hints like no one else
has no problem with the comfortable silence between us
would do anything i asked to make me happy
but knows i wouldn't ask him to do anything drastic
remember's the little things i mention, like:
favorite flower=yellow roses
and gerber daisies...
and pink tulips...
and white roses...
favorite love story=the notebook
and pearl harbor...
favorite candy=bottlecaps
and gobstoppers...
and smarties...
he's romantic
but not cheesy
he's sweet
but not corny
he tells me personal things
things he would never tell anyone else
and stories about how he became
the young man he is
he isn't afraid to tell me how he feels
he admits his vulnerability when he's around me
he tells me i make him nervous
he doesn't care what we do on the weekends
as long as we're together
he learns his lessons from past loves
but never compares me to them
he believes in me
and tells me to go for my dreams
even if they don't involve him
he's always has my best interest at heart
even if it's not in his best interest
he knows my boundaries
and would never think of crossing them
he goes the extra mile
just to make me smile
he always knows
and never forgets
that i'm different
from every other girl
