Quotes and stuff. . .

Every now and then in life, you have an experience. Good-bad, GREAT-terrible, dream worthy-nightmarish.

I think I am going through something in my life that's changing. . . For the better? Let's hope. Since I am not a "talker of feelings/emotions/happy things/sad things/things that make you cry/etc", and my favorite thing to do is to hold things in, I like to find quotes. Quotes from the scriptures, from old talks, from books, from TV shows, movies, from ANYTHING!

I've posted a blog before with quotes a like, so I am going to post another blog with quotes that I use to get me through. Whether it be a bad day or a good day, a good quote can never be forgotten.

So here are some quotes that I, especially now, really like. . .


"Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens up your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all those defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from from any other stupid person wanders into your stupid life. . . You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so a simple phrase like 'maybe we should just be friends' turns into a glass splinter working it's way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love." by Neil Gaiman


"You will never change your life until you change something you do daily." by Mike Murdock


"Those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything." by George B. Shaw


"Change hurts. It makes people insecure, confused and angry. People want things to be the same as they've always been, because that makes life easier." by Richard Marcinko


"Maturity is knowing when to be immature."


"Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.”


"If you can't convince them, confuse them." by Harry S. Truman


"Sometimes I'm confused by what I think is really obvious. But what I think is really obvious obviously isn't obvious. . ." by Michael Stipe


"I never give them hell. I just give them the truth and they think it's hell." by Harry S. Truman

"This world keeps spinning faster, Into a new disaster, so I run to you. I run to you baby. And when it all starts coming undone, Baby you're the only one I run to,I run to you. We run on fumes, Your life and mine, Like the sands of time Slippin' right on through. And our love's the only truth That's why I run to you" Lady Antebellum


Well yeah! ha! That's about the quotes I have for right now! I mean there are obviously more! But I have to get some sleep, for I am going on an adventure to Utah land to visit my most favorite brother EVER!! And my FAVORITE sister-in-law!!

SO, as for now. . . I'm peacing it up on out of here!

Peace

Story of AWESOME!!!

Yes my deary friends! I have a story to share.

But first, I will give you a little bit of what was in my head when

this story popped into my brilliant and BEE-a-YOU-tea-FULL girl, blonde head. So whilst

chatting it up with my super amazing cool friend on book de face

(she lives in VA currently and knows who she is) she said "FER SHER".

Which then reminded me of one of those awkward dates that

I'm sure everyone has had. . . . Oh you haven't?

So sad to be perfect and boring.

For I am cool and can make dates feel so out of place.

Yes! It is a talent. Sometimes I be nice and let my dates

off the hook. Then there are those sometimes where I forget I have such a magical talent. . . . Anyways, back to me story of le-freak-de-awesome.

In the lovely, jovely (I'm british) state of Virginia, I was asked on a date.

My date was kind of awkward, so he shall be deemed

the name of awk-date (like Oc-doc from spiderman, but not).

So on my date with awk-date, near the end we were doing to climb

(hike) a "mountain" (twas but a hill) and watch clouds. WATCH CLOUDS (like in elementary where you try to figure out the shapes, but I am not in elementary and am in college).

It would've been deemed fun, had it not been awkward,

and had I not been so bad a hiking. And hiking such a small distance too

(seriously so bad at hiking, even though I like it. I am a turtle with asthma. It's fun).

We were coming back down and awk-date said something to where

I replied "YEEE-AAH-HAA BOOOI"

(I also did my peace signs with both, yes, both hands-because i am gangster).

(Yeah, see me? Now imagine me being a little gangster and being

kind of awkward! Tis not hard, for that is my life. . .)

Do I remember what he said that made me say the statement?

Heck no!! All I remember was "the look". Oh you know,

The look of did-she-really-just-say-that look. And it wasn't a fast or subtle look. It was stare-her-up-and-down look. I didn't realize that

my ordinary AZ lingo would be taken as weird.

Anyways, after that, I don't really remember what happened. However that didn't keep me from talking to not make it so awkward for myself.

I do remember that he would glance at me afterwards from time to time. Maybe checking to see if I am crazy? Who knows.

And I also know that I remembered thinking, "Seriously Mr? You gave me the look for a misunderstood phrase of fantastic-ness? Psssh!

You were more awkward running into that spider webb you

didn't think I noticed. BUT I DID!!! I DID!"

I know that I watched what I was saying after that. haha! I am so funny sometimes!

Ever been on the awkward date? You say something un-wanted and get "the look"? Have you just ever received "the look" and NOT been on a date (because I have, it's fun)?

But yeah!! That is my story!

Hope you like.

Peace!
