I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

A tortured soul with a nurtured life, Here I sit on a molehill that I guarantee you I will eventually turn into a mountain. I'm too deep for my own good. I love to cash in on 50 cent words and empty promises. Tell me you love me and I'll follow you anywhere. I'm better off not knowing the truth, I always blow things out of proportion, and I rarely think before I speak. I've been told that I'm the "black sheep" of just about every bunch you can think of. I have enough friends to count them on one hand and dozens of aquaintances. I'll break your heart to save my own. I love to feel. I love to laugh. Sometimes I cry for no reason other than the fact that it feels good to do so. I write stories about the life I'll never have. I let everything get to me.- Audrey Seiberling (That's Me)
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at school. They don't teach you how to love somebody. They don't teach you how to be famous. They don't teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. They don't teach you how to walk away from someone you don't love any longer. They don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind. They don't teach you what to say to someone who's dying. They don't teach you anything worth knowing. - Neil Gaiman

My Interests

My Friends, My Family, Singing, Writing, Reading, being a nerd on my computer.

I'd like to meet:

I've already met him. Someone who has a mind of their own. Someone who can be strong enough to stand up for what they believe in and have the humility to back down when they know they're wrong. Someone who can be funny and intelligent at the same time. Someone who can take being under pressure and does not run away when situations seem almost impossible. Someone I can trust with my secrets and will trust me with his own. Someone I can spend hours of time doing absolutely nothing with and still never get bored. Someone who can have fun just walking around giving running commentary on nothing at all. Someone I just can't say goodnight to. Someone who can giggle about the retarded way I turn into a teenager with the slightest hint of flirtation. Someone who is willing to fight for the amazing possibility of it all. Someone who can just be honest. Someone who I can be myself with and not feel like I have to put on a show to seem "cool". Someone who can be their self with me too. Someone who makes my knees go weak during that first electric moment when our lips touch. Someone who wants the same things as I do.... My Buddy Hawke.

Pick a petal for me?

While driving home from work tonight, I passed a teenage couple dressed up for Prom. When our paths met, my eyes connected with the girl. She gave a very honest, very shy smile and I found myself pray...

In Buying Funeral Flowers

You enter this room with a closed mind, open head,Forgetting the cause of why your insides are dead.Floating through a world where you are the average, Where becoming something new labels you a savage...

M.T.S.A.

If I could take your pain and wrap it up in the tightest of scarlet ribbons, I would bury it deep within myself and carry this weight; simply to protect you from it. If I could steal your worries and ...

    The answer is no. I don't care what your excuse is. There is one person on the planet who can claim this and that is because this term describes her perfectly. All other mentions of...

A note to BH, with love from ST

Ho Hum, the life of a princess...

So, I am quite a popular girl and thus have many friends whose birthdays all land closely to each other. In light of this, I think I’ll make a useless list of all of the people I know whose birt...
