August 2010
sometimes the things you say scare me. not in a “i’m afraid of you” kind of way, but in a “i’m afraid for you” kind of way. i want you to be happy, and you seem to be drifting further from that. i don’t know how to help you. i can feel this wall between us, a wall that wasn’t there a few months ago. i said “don’t shut me out.” you...
Tomorrow is August 1. Which means 14 days from tomorrow I will turn 23.
I don’t like that.
Maybe it’s sad that these are now memories. And maybe it’s not sad.

Shannon: Cocoa Village is on fire!
Me: No it's not!
Katie: We can only hope.
“I used to pray like God was listening. I used to make my parents proud. I was the glue that kept my friends together. Now they don’t talk and we don’t go out. I used to know the name of every person I kissed. Now I made this bed and I can’t fall asleep in it.”
Day 30 - Who are you? I am trying to figure that out everyday.
"As Long As It Takes" by The Spill Canvas has been...
So good.
I never had a full deck.
“I know I said I didn’t watch your plane leave....
“I was watching when you lost direction. And I saw you when the headlights died. You were standing at the edge of a train wreck, twisted up inside. I tried to find you in your pitch black bedroom. I tried to find you in the place you hide. But your body was an empty suitcase, hollow, sunken eyes.”
The Spill Canvas's new cd "Formalities" is...
Day 29 - In this past month, what have you learned: I’ve learned more patience. I’ve been waiting on a decision from some other people, and it’s been a test. I just have to trust that whatever happens is meant to happen. I’ve also learned that sometimes it’s okay to close your heart off to protect it, but the important thing is to know the right moment (and person) to...
If we never met again in our lives I should feel that somehow the whole...

You have no idea just how much I miss you.
Dear you.

It rains all day when you’re not around and I’m trying my best to come clean with the clouds…
Just sweep me off my feet again...

Day 27 - Why are you doing this 30 day challenge:
It seemed fun. No reason in particular. :)
We like to believe that we can just fall in and out of this. That hearts aren’t attached and feelings aren’t involved.
Time continues as we weave ourselves in and out of each other not realizing this won’t be something we can simply stop. We learn this isn’t as easy as we thought it would be.
The frays start to show, and the walls start to go up. Suddenly, I’m hurt,...

It would be so sad if we weren't always laughing.
Fall in love with me on Sunset Boulevard. We’ll catch the late parade of broken hearts. We were lost here from the start, but that’s just who we are…
It may have just been a moment to you, but it changed every single one that...

"I go to seek a Great Perhaps..."
I love this quote. It’s such a powerful statement. We all are looking for that one, amazing thing in our life, the Great Perhaps.
I’ve been toying with the idea of getting “the Great Perhaps” tattooed on my left side. Decisions, decisions.
People should be told when they’re loved. The longer they go without knowing...

Day 26 - What you think about your friends:
They’re amazing. They’re like family. I’m so blessed to have such wonderful people in my life.

Day 25 - What I would find in your bag:
My laptop, wallet, small make up bag, gum, Excedrin, a book, crystal light mix-ins, and loose change.
That’s why I can’t say enough times, whatever love you can get and give,...

Inception
I saw Inception today. I thought the movie was good, the concept was really cool, but my mind wasn’t blown. Am I weird?
For Morgan, because I know she loves Pam.

Day 24 - A letter to your parents:
Thank you. You are two of the most amazing people I know. I wouldn’t be who I am without your guidance, encouragement, praise, grace, understanding, faith and love. I am honored to call you my parents. Thank you for being two people I can count on. Thank you for never laughing at my dreams and pushing me to be the best person I can be. I love you both more...
