About Me

Hi, my name is Ashley. I love my family and friends, music, boys, and life. I'm just trying to take life one day at a time.
The best advice I’ve received thus far…
“Yeah, have some trust in yourself and live for yourself now. It'll make it easier for you to really give yourself to someone else.” – Jay Van
“Everyone needs to be selfish in a time like this. But don't stop caring for everything else!” – Rasamee Vue
“If there [weren’t] the times that bring you down, you wouldn’t appreciate the happier things in life. Both are needed to create the happiness that you feel.” – Steve Ngo
“I would really like to say that life should not be a competition between yourself and those around you… I can understand that you are comparing yourself to others, and doing so can be a positive thing, as it may push you to strive for better things and to improve yourself, but comparing yourself to others and looking at yourself negatively isn't the best thing to do.” – Victor Ly
" Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die today." - James Dean
“I have yet to know, the sort of Love that strikes like a lightning bolt, that clutches hold of you by the heart, as irrevocably as death; that becomes the lodestar by which you steer the rest of your life...” – Juliet Marillier
"Whatever you can do,
Or think you can, begin it.
Boldness has power, and genius,
And magic in it."
-Goethe
"You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve your love and affection." - Siddhartha Gautama

My Interests


I've always put pictures in this section but I've never explained why I chose each one. I guess I will from now on. =]

The cutest little guy ever. I want one!

I love to read.

I think this picture is absolutely beautiful. Don’t you?

I found this off of post secret. Enough said.

I’ve had this up before but I like it so much it’s going up again. Totally random and cute.

You can never have too much love. It’s delicious.

I’ve had this one up before too. I just love hugs.

Innocence. We all had it once.

I still need to find my happy place. Right now the only thing that makes me happy are those few special people and not the place.

I am thankful for the stars.

I'd like to meet:

I'd Like to Meet: Anyone who is genuine, kind-hearted, and loving
Take the damn thing! Maybe you'll learn something =]
