to my best friend♥ (day 4)

day 4 – your favorite photograph of your best friend.

dear ashlee,

you are my very best friend in the whole wide world :)

you have always been there for me, through thick and thin.

you care about me and my happiness.
you worry about me.
you act like my mom sometimes ;)
you support me even when my decisions aren't always the smartest...
you let me cry on your shoulder when i need to,
or even let me sit on your lap while you just hold me as i break down.

and i know you love me because you do all these things for me.

idk what i would do without your friendship.

i know i'm a difficult person sometimes,
and i know i'm crazy.
i'm blunt and can be mean on accident...
i don't always think before acting.

but you still love me.

and because you love me so much,
it makes it that much easier to love you in the same way.

you are my best friend...my sister even.
i hope we're close forever, because you mean the world to me.
i love you ash :)

ode to cereal

since coming to college, i've discovered something.

cereal.
is delicious.

i think i actually eat it for every meal sometimes.
and definitely anytime i want an after-school snack.
or a midnight snack.
or a pre-dinner snack.
really just anytime. :)

because like i said,
cereal is delicious.

so the thing about cereal...
you could just eat it forever.

in fact, i think that's why the infinity symbol exists.
i mean, look!
∞
it's basically a bowl with a spoon sticking out from underneath if you look at it really hard.......

but anyways--you basically end up eating it forever.
because when you run out of cereal, there is still milk.
so you gotta pour more cereal!
and then you put too much cereal....
so you gotta get more milk!

and the cycle goes on and on.

yeahhhh don't even worry about it.
apparently i just think about cereal all the time.
i'm soooo interesting.
HA.
not.

peace&&love

stupid cupid

so so so.
i know valentine's day was a few days ago...
but i'm not the most on-top-of-it blogger.

maybe i should work on that...
eh. probably won't happen
:)

but i was thinking about all the different opinions that exist of valentine's day.

for instance,
some people are bitter.
it's only "single-awareness day"

others think it is the greatest thing ever because their significant
other is basically required to be romantic on this day.

i have my own opinions...

for the past 2 valentine's days,
i had a boyfriend.
so i haven't had to throw myself a pity party.

but even when i had a boyfriend,
i still thought v-day was dumb.
because in my opinion,
your significant other should do adorable and romantic things all the time...
should be spontaneous...
not give you a rose on the same day everyone else is doing it.

now don't get me wrong,
i enjoyed my valentine's day festivities with my boyfriend for those 2 years.
but still.
spontaneous is better.

now this year i had no lover...
and i formed a new opinion.

i decided i like valentine's day.

because i mean, who can really hate on love?
i just thought it was nice to see all the happy couples
and to know that i'll have that again soon enough :)

and even though i had no lover,
i still had my best friend :)
ash bought me chocolates :)
haha so sweet!
even though it totally goes against my new obsession with exercising....
but they tasted good :)

and even though i don't have a boy to love,
i have ash and many other best friends to love!

so don't hate on love...it's all good :)
and cupid will catch up to everyone soon enough :)

peace&&love

if only life were easy

when i was little, i used to wish that i had an off switch.
this was because i was always afraid to go to sleep,
so i wished that i could just turn myself off at night in order to avoid the scary 'falling asleep' process.

as i get older, i still find myself wishing i had on/off switches for various things...
i wish for an off switch for noise when i'm trying to study.
i wish for an on switch for music when something cool happens because life should come with background music ;)
but most of all, i wish there was an off switch for loving someone.

it's hard when you've cared for someone for so long
and yet, it truly is over.
so i really just wish that there was an off switch for my heart.
but instead my heart is just jacked up.
ugh.

peace&&love

lies

so i've decided romantic movies are total lies.
all this music and all these movies and just all this stuff shows everything working out "happily ever after!"

my frickin eye.
i mean, i believe in happily ever afters, don't get me wrong.
they just NEVER happen like they do in movies.

like seriously it just bugs me.

people do NOT fall madly in love in like 4 days.
nobody ends up with their first love.
and after a few decades apart, you are NOT still crazy about that person.

boo.
i'm becoming a cynic.
guess that's what happens when love dies.
