Everyone's so fake, I can't even take it anymore. You'd think that once you get to college things change, but they never do. There will always be people in this world who are so self-absorbed, judgemental, and down-right vain that they simply cannot see past themselves. They think that everyone should be exactly like them. Everyone should dress ( Read more... )

And honestly, I have been begging for answers ( Read more... )

When I was a little kid, me and my family used to go in the pool practically everyday in the summertime. We had all of these stupid pool toys, and Kerry was always making up crazy games to play. But I loved it. I'd stay in until my skin was burnt and my hair turned green from the chlorine, but I never cared. We had these huge trees in the backyard ( Read more... )

There's nothing I hate more than fake people. And yea, everybody says that, but I actually mean it. I'm not a fan of being unnecessarily mean to someone either, but there's absolutely no reason not to tell someone how you feel. There's a difference between being honest and being mean. A huge one. People need to learn to figure it out. Have some ( Read more... )

Lately, I feel like I'm living someone else's life. In the past year so many things have fallen apart and I've been completely powerless to stop them. Eventually I just stopped trying. I let myself become someone completely opposite of who I really am. I just wanted to be happy again, no matter what the cost ( Read more... )

Today was the first time in weeks that I smiled and actually meant it.

Maybe I've had it wrong all of these years. Change is a part of life. It's inevitable, and it doesn't have to be a bad thing.

I kept telling myself that I was okay, that I could make it through this. Today, I actually believed it.

This morning I was on my 6th cup of coffee, my 8th hour of midterm studying, and basically my 40 thousandth calorie when it finally hit me: I'm the one hurting myself. I continue to put myself in an environmetnt filled with hate, lies, and unhappiness. I thought that by going away to school I could make it all go away, but, as a wise friend once ( Read more... )

There's absolutely nothing worse in this world than losing someone you love. Believe me when I tell you that. But if there's one thing I've learned from being away, its that who we are as a person is defined by the people we choose to be in our lives. And sometimes, as much as it hurts, you have to let go. You have to let go of your past in order ( Read more... )

I'm going home in less than a week. And as much as I miss Massapequa, I think my life there is filled with memories that are only meant to be remembered. They aren't meant to be re-lived. It's hard to leave your old life behind, and then just slip right back into it three months later. I have a lot of things to sort out when I get home. It's one of ( Read more... )

I love listening to my old music.

Until this song came on.

The "Say It Like You Mean It" albumn by The Starting Line is basically the story of my life right now.
