Being with someone
I think that the whole point of being with someone is you can talk to them about anything, would understand you and will let go of everything and even when you're at your worst, they still like you still want to speak to you and care about you and stuffff..

"your mistakes do not define you"
This once never made any sense to me, what mistakes would lead
someone to even fathom a quote like that? I made mathematical mistakes during
an exam during my school years, falling for the "wrong" person,
taking the wrong route whilst driving or even getting on the wrong train- they
are all very little and minute mistakes that life throws at you during the long
and winded journey through it. However, I sat and thought about the quote when
I used to see it floating around the internet. I convinced myself that maybe
not everybody makes big mistakes, mistakes big enough to expound and mold who
people think you are. However, living through my teenage years, i realized that people
make mistakes, not little ones but big ones- ones that could potentially change
how you feel and think of yourself and how others do too. And it's only after
reading this quote do I realize that maybe they actually don't. I've made far
too many mistakes this past year... 8 months to be exact, and as much as I
would like to think I regret them, there's no point in doing so because let's
be honest here, everybody knows that the mistakes you make are lessons, they're
the next wooden panel along the rickety wooden bridge to another chapter in
your life. It may rock your insides quite traumatically, it may drive you
mental when you over think it but again, the mistake doesn't define you, it's
only a little bump in the road that you unfortunately had to live through. I
need to keep reminding myself this as it seems I do a lot of thinking sometimes
and not only that, i dive deep and deep and deeper into the smoky, dark and
dusty hollows of ancient caves. I think too much that I drive myself to
insanity sometimes, to a point where I feel like I can't get up anymore. How
stupid of me, but as my teenage years come to a close, it's just another
chapter in this massive novel that I need to live through. There's really no
point in dwelling as I still have a very long way to go, I think so anyway. I,
nor anybody else, knows when I'll turn the page and it'll be blank and my life
will be nothing but a puff of air, a droplet of information in this very vast,
colorful and noisy scientific universe.
Mistakes, hah.
Mistakes, hah.
Samantha: she got it off her chest
A: Sam! Okay, I know you think that I'm just some...
Sam: Coward? Phony?
A: Okay, just listen.
S: No, you listen. You turned out to be exactly who I thought you were. I never pretended to be somebody else. It's been me all along. And it was me who was hurt in front of everybody. Look, I didn't come here to yell at you, okay? I came to tell you that I know what it feels like to be afraid to show who you are. I was, but I'm not anymore. And the thing is, I really don't care what people think about me... because I believe in myself. And I know that things are gonna be okay. But even though I have no family, and no job, and no money for college... it's you that I feel sorry for. I know that guy that sent those emails is somewhere inside of you, but I can't wait for him... because waiting for you is like waiting for rain in this drought. Useless and disappointing.
*walks away*
A: SAM!

"Maybe you were looking, but you weren’t really seeing"

ways to explain this quote.

It's already tomorrow in Australia
"Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia." (Charles Schultz)
The following is the philosophy of Charles Schultz, the creator of the "Peanuts" comic strip. You don't have to actually answer the questions. Just read the post straight through, and you'll get the point.
1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.
2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America.
4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winner for best actor and actress.
6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners.
How did you do?
The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday. These are no second-rate achievers. They are the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Acheivements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.
Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:
1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.
2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.
3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.
4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.
Easier?
The lesson: The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They are the ones that care.

Get out of school
I'm glad x emailed me
For some reason, I wanted x to write first
Maybe because I wanted x to think I was so happy and busy that I didn't have time to talk
When in reality, I'm dying to talk
