Daily Haiku

I have this feeling:

I do not know what I want.

But do I ever?

I feel as if I am picking petals off of a flower. I want this, I don't want this. I want this, I don't want this.

Another flower from the bouquet my father bought my mother for Christmas. (Yes, it is an old picture.)

I sit here now,

Happier than ever, coz

Baby, I found you.

I was listening to John Mayer this morning on the bus, and I found myself singing along. Not to say that I don't enjoy listening to John Mayer, it's just that his words described my feelings so well.

I want a pair of these so bad! They are a little bit too expensive for my budget, though, since I am trying to save up to go to California this summer! Maybe for my birthday...

Fluffy flakes of joy

Come swirling down from the sky

It's heaven on earth.

It has been snowing for the past few days. School was cancelled yesterday, and I was lucky enough to have a two hour delay this morning! Track was even cancelled after school, which was actually unfortunate. I've been looking forward to running lately. But the trees are so pretty to look at. I would enjoy winter a lot more if everyday looked like today. 

Since women are excellent multitaskers, I decided to take out my dog and take pictures at the same time. I was getting some really great shots, except my dog, Jack, ran away. So I had to quit being an aspiring photographer and find my mischievous mutt. I found him fifteen minutes later and two houses up. I will definitely use a leash tomorrow.

Talk to me some more.

Whisper your secrets to me.

Your voice is so smooth.

I'm becoming a person who I told myself that I never would. I think about him a lot. He really is different. I'm not really used to guys treating me so well. I feel so wonderful!

The Truth.

I used to be the girl who always believed in herself. Who always knew what she wanted. I used to be the girl who believed that the sky was the limit. Who let no one stop her. And that if she dreamed hard enough, then anything would come to her. I used to be the girl who didn't care if she had flaws and didn't care if her favorite shoes got dirty, because that made them have character. I used to be the girl who could talk to anyone and not worry about being judged. Who trusted everyone with her deepest secret. I used to be that girl. But I've reach that point in my life where I have pretty much given up on all hopes of those things coming back into my life.

Lyrics I Love

Just a Ride- Jem

Truth, we don't wanna hear

It's too much to take

Don't like to feel out of control

So we make our plans

Ten times a day

And when they don't go

our way we

Breakdown

Yeah we breakdown

Well don't you breakdown

Listen to me

Because

It's just a ride, it's just a ride

no need to run, no need to hide

It'll take you round and round

Sometimes you're up 

sometimes you're down

It's just a ride, it's just a ride

don't be scared

don't hide your eyes

It may feel so real inside

but don't forget it's just a ride

Slowly, oh so very slowly

accept that

there's no getting off

So live it, just gotta go with it

coz this ride's, never gonna stop

When Your Head Starts Pounding and Your Legs Start Hurting...

You know you are sick.

I went to the doctor's today. I was only one cotton swab down my throat to having strep.

I don't know why, but I always get so emotional when I am sick. I ended up crying in the doctor's office. Maybe it's because I can't run in my first two indoor track meets of the season. I was really looking forward to them...

Because First Impressions are so Important

Back to school outfit. I know it's a little dismal, but it's winter, so I'm allowed.

“Flowers are restful to look at. They have neither emotions nor conflicts.”

These flowers were in a beautiful bouquet that my dad bought my mom for Christmas. I really liked these two photographs that I took of them.

Well, Here It Is, What We've All Been Waiting For...

2009. A new year. A new start.

There are two types of feelings that usually come up around the new year, and you either belong in one category or the other: excited that a fresh start is coming or scared that a new year is starting.

Sure, 2008 has been a little rough, but that was last year, so let's have a great new year! No more worries! 2009 is a new slate! Let's make this year the best year of our lives! Making resolutions is the best part!

Or will 2009 be the worst year of your life. Maybe 2008 was a great year and it's sad to see it go. Do you really want a fresh start of things? Will all theses people begin to change and leave you behind?

But I guess only time can decide.
