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.

Motivational Quotes

Im stronger now. 

I'm no longer the girl who laid her heart broken and bleeding at your feet. 

And there are more, 

Many more,

Important things in my life than a man.

I'm mad at myself, not you.

I'm mad for always being nice.

Always apologizing for things I didn't do.

For getting attached.

For making you a huge part of my life,

Wasting time on you,

Depending on you,

Thinking about you,

Wishing for you, dreaming of you,

Changing for you,

and most of all, for not hating you,

When I know I should.

When you start to miss me,

Remember: you were the one who

Made me cry,

Broke my heart,

Turned your back,

and let me go.

Book Review: The Perks of Being a Wallflower

The Perks of Being a Wallflower isn't a typical teen novel involving sex and drugs. It has an interesting twist and a different perspective. It summarizes Charlie's freshman year. His first day is rough because he is a quiet kid, but as he slowly finds his place, he has one of the best years, or worst years, of his life. I give it three and a half stars out of five.
