Evy (-20.4!)

I am here for Friends

About Me

I am the Evy. You will never meet another Evy quite as Evy as me.There is beauty in the breakdown.In life, I am cheesecake. You either love me or you hate me. But either way, you are going to have to deal with me. I'm a staple, baby. I'm not going anywhere. Besides, I'm pretty fucking awesome.Things are what you make of them, baby.I think I'm really happy for the first time in a really long time. I don't think you can really appreciate something as little as this until you've been as sad and depressed as I was for so long. But I don't let the past get me down. The things I've been through, the drugs I've taken, the friends I've made, they make me who I am today. And I love this Evy.I don't worry about people in my past. There's a reason they didn't make it into my future.I learned relatively early in life that you can't force the hands of love. When you try, it's not worth it. I'm definitely just going with the flow here. Life isn't worth living if you can't allow things to play out the way they will.Never getting help doesn't make you brave.I'm a perfectionist. I'm afraid of failure. I'm anal retentive. I can get upset in larger groups of people. I bruise too easily. But life is okay for me.It's alright to be crazy, Just don't let it drive you nuts.I don't use the term "best friend" anymore. I don't have one. I have a handful of close friends that I love more than life. My friends mean the world to me, but I still suck at keeping in touch with people. Sorry. I don't believe family is just about the blood that runs through your veins. It's about the people you love."Weekends don't count unless you spend them doing something completely pointless." -CalvinWe have such warped ideas of what we actually are. What's in the past is in the past. Sometimes, the littlest gestures are the ones that touch us the most. I do too many online surveys when I'm bored.I'm growing older, But I'm not growing up.I'm still friends with most of my exes. Even if friend is a loose term I use to describe a friendly relationship which has us only talking every so often and wishing well to each other. I've been in love twice. I've told four people I loved them. I never say "I love you" to anyone unless I mean it, even if it's not that I'm in love with you.I do some stupid things, But my heart's in the right place.I want so badly to believe that "There is truth, that love is real" And I want life in every word To the extent that it's absurdI love lightning bugs. They remind me of my grandpa; They remind me that we have to make our own light. The movie Big Fish makes me cry every single time I watch it. It reminds me of my grandpa too.A man tells so many stories, that he becomes the stories. They live .. him, and in that way he becomes immortal.I think most boys are more trouble than they are worth and most girls are too drama prone. That's an interesting predicament to be in as a bi female. I can deal with trouble better than drama though, so I'm friends with and date more guys than girls. When I like you, I like only you and you will probably know it before I have the balls to tell you. I also read too many webcomics. I'm lame.Never let the sun set on tomorrow Before the sunrises on todayI like being single. I don't like dating. I like being in a committed relationship. I don't know if I actually want kids anymore.Barefoot children in the rain Got no need to explain We'd be swingin' on a ball and chain It's always understood by those who play the game Barefoot children in the rain.If I could bring any cartoon character to life, I'd pick Gambit. I've always had a crush on him. It's crazy, I know. Spike from Cowboy Beebop would be my second choice."Be who you are and say how you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." -Dr. SeussSometimes I worry I don't like people. I like being alone. I like being with just one or two other people. I love cuddling. A kiss on my forehead or the top of my head is about the fastest and best way to ensure I will fall for you."After a while, you just want to be with the one that makes you laugh." -Mr BigI have what you might call "daddy issues." We had a very troubled relationship. I got to play the parent all through high school as my father descended further and further into his alcoholism. I was verbally and emotionally abused. I don't blame him anymore though. He did the best he knew how with what he was given and the hand he was dealt.
When my father passed away on August 19, 2007 we were just beginning to really patch up that severely torn relationship. In spite of it all, I still love and miss my father very much every single day."I've done some great things and I've made some really bad mistakes. And I take responsibility for all of it." -Tommy LeeVive la vie de Bohème.If you have any other questions, please feel free to send me a message!Yahoo Messenger: SomeDivinePunk AOL Messenger: EvyWasHere MSN Messenger: [email protected]

Heroes:

"But twenty-five years of observation has also told me that criminals are more 'made' than 'born,' which means that somewhere along the line, someone who provided a profound negative influence could have provided a profound positive one instead. So what I truly believe is that along with more money and police and prisons, what we most need more of is love. This is not being simplistic; it's the very heart of the issue." -John Douglas"Life hands me new insanity every day. Some of it is good, some of it is very, very good, and some of it is pretty fucking bad. But, you know, I wouldn't have it any other way. I've had the highest highs and the lowest lows that you can have in life. I've done some great things and I've made some really bad mistakes. And I take responsibility for all of it. I'm telling you, people are going to learn the truth about me in this book. They're going to learn that when I do something, anything at all, I always go big." -Tommy Lee
