Taking Chances...

What do you say to taking chances?

What do you say to jumping off the edge?

Never knowing if there's solid ground below...

Or a hand to hold... 

Or hell to pay...

What do you say,

What do you say?

Don't know much about your life...

Don't know much about your world.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sometimes you just need to take a chance.

Nothing is ever easy

But that shouldn't matter

... not if you plan on taking a chance for all the right reasons.

It might not make any sense.

It might seem crazy.

But live a little.

The feeling of success is such a fulfilling emotion.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Greatness.

It's not always defined specifically to one thing.

But it certainly isn't hard to find the best in something & consider them great.

I can find something great in anyone.

Everyone, no matter who they are, have great qualities.

You should never think down upon someone.

You really don't know them well enough if you can't see the greatness they hold inside.

You should never leave someone in the middle of an argument, or with anger.

You never know when your words together will be the last.

Stop taking things for granted. 

No fight is worth it.

Love, Laughter & Happiness is worth so much more.

I wish more people would understand this concept.

But for now...

I'll work harder to achieve the greatness that loving & caring can bring.

Sometimes it takes something drastic to make others realize this.

Don't let that be you.

I've spent my life being a friend to everyone.

No matter who they might be.

And I know that it's helped people.

I encourage the rest of you to strive for an accepting heart.

Try accepting everyone.

No matter who they are!

I guarantee it will not only make you feel like a better person...

But it will make those around you feel better too!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sometimes in our lives, we all have pain

We all have sorrow.

But if we are wise

We know that there's always tomorrow.

Lean on me

When you're not strong

And I'll be your friend.

I'll help you carry on. 

For it won't be long 'til I'm gonna need somebody to lean on.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm feeling emotional.

Hm...

Inside Scoop...

So, everybody, how've ya been?!

I feel like it's been forever.

I always have so many things I wish I could say.

I end up only say about 1/5 of them...

I guess if it were important, I'd eventually get them all out...

But I dunno.. Some things are better left unsaid.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Question:

Have you ever thought about life?

And by this, I mean really thought about it.

Think about the fact that you can see, think, hear, taste, touch...

It's a really cool thing to think about...

It's a pretty cool feeling.

Question:

What are you afraid of?

Do you ever think about something & wish it didn't scare you?

You wish you could overcome the fear completely...

That sure would be nice...

I'm secretly not brave at all.

Question:

Would you protect some if you could?

I oftentimes consider scary scenarios & imagine myself being the hero.

 I think I deal with crucial, on-the-spot situations surprisingly well.

It always comes as a shock to me when I step it up like that...

Who'd of thunk it?! I might be a little brave after all.

Wow.

Boyfriend vs. Boo

Seriously.

SOMEONE PLEASE

Explain to me what the heck a "boo" is?!

I mean, I might as well Urban Dictionary it...

BOO:

1) Boyfriend or girlfriend. Term of endearment.

2) A loud, abrupt yell, meant to frighten someone.

3) A sound made to indicate disapproval, the opposite of "yay."

1- Some Guy: "Hey boo."

2- Ghost: "BOOO!"

3- Unhappy Audience: "Booooooo...."

Why would you want to associate someone whom you "love" with something that's supposed to SCARE someone? OR something that's meant to signify disapproval...

.... This just doesn't make any sense to me...

This is what I imagine when I hear, "Ma Boo.."

 Yeah.. the cliche kissing picture...

The awkwardly opened eyes not really know where to hold their gaze...

The stupid, sparkly boarder around the picture...

The dumb arrow pointing to "your lover"

And a huge label at the bottom professing "I love you"...

Because we didn't already get that from this ridiculous picture...

Now let's get one thing straight:

I'm not against public displays of affection..

I just think you should use proper English

& perhaps address someone by a name that's not just found in an urban dictionary.

Why can't you just say, "My Boyfriend"...?

A Boyfriend:

1) A male friend

2) A frequent or regular male companion in a romantic relationship 

Those already sound nicer...

Here's what I think of when I think "boyfriend"

This might be cliche...

But I find that this scenario makes more sense.

"I'm going out with my boyfriend."

"I'm kickin' wit ma boo t'nite!"

Oh, how proper English is holding me back...

I suppose I'll never get to know what it's like to have a "boo"...

Counting Sheep...

Sleep.

It's something I've never been very good at.

I really don't like the whole process of falling asleep.

I like sleep... I just don't like having to fall asleep...

I think it's because I'm afraid I'm going to miss something...

Or perhaps that I'll be wasting my time...

When I could be getting things done!

Maybe I should hang out with some sheep...

That might help!

I was like, "Baby, Baby, Baby, Oohh..."

Justin Bieber...

So, they totally gave him a tribute on Glee.

I'd never even heard an entire song of his until then.

I just don't understand what this "Bieber Fever" is...

Am I totally missing something here?!

This "swept bangs" look is so 2006!

I don't know...

I just don't think looking like a twelve-year-old is something to be proud of...

Furthermore, I don't think being 16... You can sing about your true love.

His voice isn't that good...

And he's not even that cute...

I hope I don't get shanked for dissing on the Biebs...

Six Holes & Counting...

Three on each ear.

Piercings.

Two new ones...

As of yesterday!

I now have my cartilages pierced on both ears :P

I secretly wish I would have waited and only did one side at a time...

It's impossible to sleep on either side...

Last night.. trying to fall asleep in a spot that wasn't painful was very difficult!

This was right after it happened, so it was pretty red still!

Last night...

I went to a "Naughty Valentine's" Party...

It was an exceptionally fun night :P

I love Liz & her parties! (& I suppose I should credit Jose for helping too...)

There was also a gift exchange....

The presents were interesting to say the least...

I love my friends.

February 14th...

These days go together better than anything else.

What if you don't have a love to share the day with?

I mean, most people spend 2/14 sulking and wallowing in self-pity...

Embrace your freedom people!

Think of how much money you're going to save...

I don't know.. just try and look on the bright side.

Instead of spending V-Day with your "One true love for whom without them your life would have no purpose,"... why not try spending it with THE PEOPLE you love.

Friends, Family... a pet? Sheesh! Haha :)

Just don't get down on yourself.

I've got so many great Valentine's this year & I can't wait to spend my candle-lit dinner with them :P Hahaha.

So, in conclusion, I would like to wish you all a very happy Valentine's Day with your special someone(s) :)
