i drink my coffee black
in order to impress people.
i think i talk too much
because i thrive for attention.
i hate thinking about the past
because the best memories
only make me sad instead.
i like to try new things
but i tend to quit if
i can't live up to my own expectations.
even if a situation is awful,
if it's a part of my routine,
i won't change to make things better.
i have the best intentions,
but sometimes only for myself.
i don't like to disappoint people
because i hate being disappointed.
people watching is more exciting
than watching television.
i like photoshop because
it makes everyone look beautiful.
i don't write poetry anymore
because of writer's block, men, and
the thought of imperfection.
when i was sixteen i fell in love...
with English.
it's hard to make health conscious decisions
without obsessing about body image.
i still don't know what i want to be...
when i grow up.
i don't believe in love at first sight
and i don't think there is only one person--
a soulmate-- for each individual.
love has no boudnaries and
it can't tell between age, race, religion, and orientation.
my dad is my hero,
but my mom beat him to it first.
people move too quickly;
life isn't a race.
i hate when people judge others--
strangers are potential opportunities
to be best friends.
innocence is the greatest thing,
but it takes growing up to realize it.
people only hate other people
because they don't give them a chance
to be understood.
it's important to be knowledgable of politics--
i'm still working on that.
i take a lot of pride in everything
that i've been able to purchase independently.
i hate when people touch my things--
without my permission.
everyone can be happy if they want to;
it just takes the right kind of attitude.
the elderly are the coolest people
you could ever meet.
babysitting allowed me to understand
what unconditional love really means.
my mother always said
you can choose your friends
but your family chooses you.
i choose to be happy,
to understand and be understood
and to love. |
