Change of Heart: A Novel
By Jodi Picoult
see relatedFind people you love.
So I know I disappeared for a while, but I'm back! This semester has been kicking my butt. I have 18 credits and two jobs. I can't wait until I'm done with this semester. I'm so excited for the holidays! But for now, I'm just excited to see the boy tonight. Distance sucks, but love is worth it. Wow that was cheesy, but it's true. Anywho now for the real reason we're all here...
Quotes! (Check out the French Postsecret I put in the quotes, I translated it for you guys)
I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow. I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way they handle these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights. I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life. I've learned that making a "living" is not that same thing as making a "life." I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back. I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one. I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back. I've learned that I still have a lot to learn. I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
Well things have been getting kind of heavy these days, trying to figure out which road to take.
There are many decisions to be made, and the only time I feel okay is when I'm in your arms.If I had all this time on my hands, well I would love to share it with you.
And though our days have made other plans, there is nothing I'd rather do than sit and talk with you,
my beautiful view.I hope that you will remember me the way I remember you - as someone wonderful, someone perfect.
I seldom end up where I wanted to go, but almost always end up where I need to be.
--Douglas Adams
TRANSLATION: On the subway, I told you (in my bad French accent),
"You are very pretty." I was serious.
I think that you are the most beautiful person in the world.Keep your dreams alive. Understand to achieve anything requires faith and belief in yourself, vision, hard work, determination, and dedication. Remember all things are possible for those who believe.
-Gail DeversLet's be crazy, how 'bout we just get married? Hey baby baby boy, I've loved you from the day that we met. Don't care what mom says, or if we're ready just yet. Beacause this don't mean a thing if you're not next to me. You're who I wanna wake up to every morning.
Rule number one is, don't sweat the small stuff.
Rule number two is, it's all small stuff.-Stay Inspired-

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (Book 6)
By J.K. Rowling
see relatedBe kind.
So I've had quite a busy week with the boy's birthday and Father's day and all the good stuff. Today was a dull day filled with lots and lots of studying. And then I had class and had a test. It wasn't too bad. I'm soooooo looking forward to this Friday and Saturday. I'm going to be at summerfest. I'm so pumped. We're seeing the Offspring and Our Lady Peace. I've loved OLP since 7th grade! And in sad news, Jon & Kate are getting a divorce... I really wanted to see them beat the odds.
Quotes today are all going to be in pictures, enjoy!

Beautiful Eyes CD/DVD Exclusive set
I heart ?
see relatedFollow your heart.
Yay subscribers! I love you all! My three lone subscibers lol. So basically I can't sleep so you get an update while I enjoy some apples and peanut butter, yum. Woot woot. Anyways, life's the same ole same ole. I saw Liar, Liar for the first time ever today. I can't believe I've never seen it. I liked it a lot. Oh and don't be suprised if a picture of a yellow umbrella shows up again. I love them. I'm addicted to them, and I've decided to start collecting them. You all probably think I'm very odd, but I love love love the quote and I've always loved the rain so it mixed two of my pleasures into one! Oh and I finished the fifth Harry Potter so only one more til I'm all refreshed before the movie. I'm sure I'll reread the seventh one still just because it's amazing. Wow I really do sound odd with my yellow umbrellas and Harry Potter infatuation.
I don't know if anybody will respond to this but if you'd like to entertain me, please do!
Who is the one celebrity/character/person that you are just completely ridiculously obsessed with?
Me: Mark DeRosa, ex Cubs second baseman, currently Indians third baseman. I LOVE him. If I ever met him I can guarentee I'd go giddy like a 10 year old from the 90s meeting Nick Carter. No lie.
And quotes...
I have no direction in my life and I've never been happier.
"Ladies, let me give you some advice. You can throw all your stupid fucking chick-lit, self-help, why-doesn't-he-love-me books out, because this is all you need to know: Men will treat you the way you let them. There is no such thing as "deserving" respect; you get what you demand from people. If you demand respect, he will either respect you or he won't associate with you. It really is that simple."
- Tucker Max (I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell)
Real integrity is doing the right thing knowing that nobody's going to know if you did it or not.
If you knew me yesterday,
please don't think that I'm the same person you're meeting today.
I have experienced more of life,
I have encountered new depths in those I love,
I have suffered, and I have prayed.
I am different.
I would watch the worst movie in the world with you if you wanted to.
You got a dream? You have to protect it.
If people can't do something themselves,
they want to tell you that you can't do it.
You want something? Go get it. Period.
Everyone can afford to give away a smile.
Let's run away to a place where the air tastes like rain
and the sun shines like Sunday morning.
You bring your laugh and I'll bring my sense of humor
and we can taste the days away, one after another.
When you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on.
Imperfection is beauty. Madness is genius. And it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than to be absolutely boring. And when it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I'm already better than they are.
If you can't laugh at yourself, life is going to seem a whole lot longer than you'd like.
Work like you don't need the money.
Love like you've never been hurt.
Dance like nobody's watching.
Sing like nobody's listening.
Live like heaven on Earth.
She looks into the sky at night and sees everything she can be.
She can't let anyone take away her dreams.
I want to know what you ache for, and if you dare to dream of meeting your hearts longing. I want to know if you will risk looking a fool for love, for your dreams, for the adventure of being alive. I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine or your own, without moving to hide it or fade it or fix it. I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself, I want to know if you can see beauty even when it's not pretty, every day, and if you can source your own life from its presence. I want to know if you will stand in the center of the fire with me and not shrink back. I want to know what sustains you, from the inside, when all else falls away. I want to know if you can be done with yourself and if you truely like the company you keep in the empty moments.
Be open to whatever comes next.
Kindness in words creates confidence.
Kindness in thinking creates profoundness.
Kindness in giving creates love.
Every single moment is undeniably beautiful.

Gravity
By Our Lady Peace
see relatedThe yellow umbrella
So um yea... could somebody subscribe? Please? I'll even take a pity subscription right now. I just want to know that someone appreciates the quotes? Sorry for the pathetic whiny bit, I just had to get it out. Other than that, life is good. More pictures than normal with this update.
And quotes...
When the sun's not shining get a yellow umbrella and pretend it is.
"I may still not know what I want to be when I grow up, but I do know that someday I want to live in a house filled with my books and travel souvenirs. And the walls that aren't covered in bookshelves will be covered with photos of my family and friends. When I leave the house I will be going to a job I love, and I'll return to a person I love. So, that's the dream I'm working on."
- Amber Morley
Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end.
I was born to be stubborn. A little bit bossy. To push people, to push myself. I was taught to never take life for granted, to live a little, to love with everything I have. I learned to never give up, to believe in myself, and most of all to fight for myself.
The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of the people who are evil,
but because of the people who don't do anything about it.
The meaning I picked, the one that changed my life:
Overcome fear, behold wonder.
If you don't like something, change it.
If you can't change it, change your attitude.
Turn your face to the sunshine and all shadows fall behind.
How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.
It's faith in something and enthusiasm for something that makes life worth living.
Dream more than others think is practical. Expect more than others think is possible.
Those who dream of success, dream with their eyes wide open.
They set goals, workd hard, overcome obstacles, and achieve success.
Dreams know no boundaries.
If in life you should fall, make it part of the dance.
Have no boundaries when you dream
Be passionate about what you say
Make waves with what you do
Leave footprints when you go
A big shot was a little shot who just kept on shooting.
Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass,
it's about learning to dance in the rain.
"Congratulations! Today is your day!
You're off to great places! You're off and away!
You have brains in your head, you have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself any direction you choose.
You're on your own and you know what you know.
And YOU are the guy who'll decided where to go."
- Dr. Seuss
Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.
Sometimes you have to laugh harder than the rest of the world.
To have passion is something amazing, for life, love, family, and friends.
Don't forget, live that passion, for every moment, every breath teaches you more about yourself,
things you would have never discovered if you didn't show your passion for something.
Always remember: it takes the same amount of time and energy
to hate someone as it does to love someone.
