Instead of the expected lacy, expensive, scandalous lingerie that most girls pack for trips with their boyfriends, I’ve got my standard selection of old school and band t-shirts and my Adidas sweatpants to sleep in. And even though I’ve got a track record for looking absolutely horrendous in the mornings, I’m genuinely not worried about any of that.
In fact, I’m not...

The fact that I may not see you until August makes me wanna SHOUT! Kick my heels up and SHOUT! Throw my hands up and SHOUT! Throw my head back and SHOUT!! :)

Zimbabwe!!! I’m happy!!! New York! Australia!! China! Spain!!!! France!!! Russia!!! The penguins in Antarctica!!!
Can’t you feel my love? I feel it on every little piece of my body and it’s overwhelming and I want everyone in the world to go to sleep tonight a little more peacefully. I want to smile for the goddamn world.
"I'll be fine once I get. Yeah, I'll be good."
I’m almost basically there - I’ve just got to find that balance. I’ve got so much I’m juggling, but summer should be my best friend, in the sense that it’ll temporarily relieve at least 70% of things I need to worry about (school, SAT, college, lack of sleep, newspaper, other time commitments, etc). My plan is to then get the remaining 30% (relationships, emotional...
Maybe it shouldn’t’ve, but it still made me feel somewhat special.
It’s great to finally be able to say that tomorrow is the last day of school.
It was only this tweet, from precisely 17 minutes ago, that made me realize it is the last week of school. I mean, I’ve been fiercely anticipating summer, in the sense that I’ve got plans for various days and I keep thinking, “next week, I’ll _____ that doesn’t involve...

Yeah, except I just woke up and have work in an hour and a half until close. BUT! Things could - and definitely should - be way worse, so I can’t complain. When I woke up, things seemed better - more intact. Maybe things will be okay.
Just don’t mug yourself. That’s all - don’t mug yourself.

yeahsara:
is one of my best friends. I love his sense of humor and his uninhibited laugh. He’s really easy to talk to/vent to/be open with. I’d hang out with him every day if I could. I hope we don’t suck and we actually follow through with getting an apartment, because I don’t think I could stand living with any other people besides him and Jess. I really want him to be happy, and I’ll fuck up...

..Or something of the sort. Don’t know what I would do without my Laura.
What would I do without my Alexa and her visits to my place? <3
But, seriously, let’s all keep in mind that change isn’t always bad. It can be scary as hell and both highly anticipated and highly dreaded, but it doesn’t mean it will work out...
Some times, I say things that come across terribly. And I don’t mean to be so terrible. I just really don’t know how to act. I don’t know what to say and before I know it, I’ve said the wrong thing. It is probably because I think too much about not saying the wrong thing or ruining the night. And then of course I do. So, I’m going to work on that. I promise....

^ from Garrett. Can’t bring myself to delete it. He’s the best best friend ever
-sigh- Maybe if I lie to myself long enough it’ll be true.
Please, god, let’s just skip tomorrow completely.
precariouslyprecocious asked: That was perhaps the best photoset of all time. Just sayin'.
totheshindig asked: I just want to tell you how talented you are. And because of it, my hate for you because YOU SUCK. But you're still one of my favorite people to exist, so I guess you're allowed to be super talented. I hope I've successfully confused you. Just know, you're incredibly talented.
I wish I knew what to do.

I walked down the dark street smiling, the string between my fingers. When I’d gotten the car’s interior lighting on, I slid the card from the envelope. I laughed. And I smiled. And I sat there, tears streaming down my face, immersed in my own happiness.
Every time my mind begins to form words to articulate the emotion, my eyes just fill with tears. So instead, I put on Elvis or the Beach Boys, and I rest my forehead on the edge of my desk, staring into the tiled floor.
Let’s make time stand still.
no regrets.
god bless the working world
Day 2 of working went well, despite my worries. I got to restock some shelves, watch loads of instructional videos, and work the front counter a bit. I genuinely had a great day and I kind of love my job more than I should. I have no idea why, but I seriously did not want to go home.
The hardest part of my job is not bursting into song. Especially when restocking shelves. It takes everything in...

Saturday I took my first SAT; today I took my first AP test; and tomorrow I’m taking my first drug test! And, let’s get real: out of the three, I feel most confident about passing the drug test. I mean, for the love of Christ, considering the fact that I’ve never done drugs, I should be golden. To prepare, though, I have been listening to all the classics:
You motherfuckers...
