“I see you came out here to write your song, but you don’t have too long, so show me what you’re working with. I’d like to give you a little something and you may think it’s nothing on first listen. In the time it takes for you to make love, you could break love, waste love, and throw it all away. But all you need is faith and hope will bring a brighter day. And...
WHOA! this thing still exists. i’m excited to dive back in and keep some sort of record of my life. be prepared, friends! :)

Thank you, sir.
Optional.
FIVE things you wish you could say to FIVE different people right now:
Thank you so much for being a friend at the time I needed it most. Thanks for being the accountability and the support I needed. I love you!
I really really wish you would form your own opinions and ideas and not look for that approval in everyone else. Trust yourself, baby!

Beautiful.
Sometimes, you have no other option but to realize it’s time to grow up and leave some things in the past. Some things belong no where but in the past. Sometimes you have to do things for yourself, and cut cords so you can finally be free to live your life. Sometimes you may not know the outcome, but the opportunities that cost us are usually the opportunities that change our lives for the...

You are the only thing that just might save me. Oh, the thought of it just makes me crazy. Why did you have to be so persuading? Did you get to feel him near? Did you get to fond of losing sleep, my dear?
listening to "Coldplay - The Scientist" →
Megan, this song will always make me think of you.
I'm so tired.
I’m drained. In every sense of the word. Maybe I’m burned out. I don’t know. I just know I don’t want this for the rest of my life. Making coffee, working to pay bills, smiling, “Have a nice day.” I’m done. Done, done, done. Don’t get me wrong, my job has been great, but Routine kills joy in any situation. No more second-guessing though. I’m...
Another year, but you're still not here.
Happy birthday, Daddy. You know, some days it feels like you were JUST here. Other days, days like today, it seems like you’ve been gone a lot longer than you actually have been. I really miss you. I don’t think people will read this and really be able to understand or comprehend what I’m going through, unless they’ve been through this situation themselves. Lucky those who...

Take it to heart. And I love the piano in the intro.
Family really is all that matters, when you get to the end of it. By the way, family isn’t always defined by blood.

You know those songs that bring with them a flood of nostaligic and beautiful memories? This is one of those songs, at least for me.

#Song_of_the_Day: Death Cab For Cutie – Grapevine Fires. Can this drummer get a really cool award? So thoughtful, so original, so simple, so tasteful.
Uhm, I love this song. SO SO SO much.
My trip ended a day early...
But for good reason. Tomorrow, we finally get the ball rolling. Meeting my new recruiter and Flight Chief in the morning. Woop woop!
People are ridiculous. For real, for real.
These are so true.

1. Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully. 2. Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, their conversational skills will be as important as any other. 3. Don’t believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want. 4. When you say, “I love you”, mean it. 5. When you say, “I’m sorry”, look the person in the eye. 6. Be engaged at least six months...

“And everyday there are flowers sprouting new, because out of the rain the most beautiful things grew and I’m growing out of you. I’m moving along, moving along tonight because I’ve been let down and I need to feel high. I’m moving along, moving with love tonight because I’ve been out of the sun and now I’m back in the light.”
No need for words...
I want a heart big enough to swallow oceans.
I can't say I didn't warn you.
I have 200 pieces of photo paper and full color and black ink cartridges. I have tons of pictures to print off, but the stupid machine only likes pink. Someone help me out.
Other than that, we’re good. Lunch with good, honest friends tomorrow. Nephew time Tuesday morning, BEST FRIEND time that afternoon and evening, goodbyes Tuesday night, and Nonnie time after that until Friday. Let the...
I’m in for an all around great week.

Borrowed Partner days are so much fun.
I worked a shift today at what’s said to be the slowest, most boring in our district. I have to say, It was so much fun. I wasn’t too sure how things would turn out, but I met some really great people. This store is truly like a big fun family. One of the girls I worked with for most of the day told me, “You should transfer here. I like you and I really think we would get...
Days like today are one of the many reasons I love...
One of the things I’m not too excited about, though, is that in the next 3 days, I’m supposed to work 24 hours, plus probably 5 or 6 hours of babysitting on Sunday night. I’m not complaining, because there are always bills to pay, but my feet are going to get me for this one by the time the weekend’s over and done with. At least I have a new tattoo to look forward to on...
