We'll start of with C. BFF since 6th grade. He "asked me out" and I turned him down flat. I was so nice back then. Also I was an idiot.. More on that later. And we have been tight ever since! Never once has he been even the slightest been upset/grouchy with me. He never pesters or scolds me, even when he should. Sweetest boy I know. Plus he's black. So that's just awesome. He also hates the same things I hate, which really bring people closer together.
B! He is the biggest hipster. Always up for anything. He loves shopping more than I do, so I am never without a shopping buddy. He is so high on the list of awesome people, that is all I need to say.
J- One time, this kid who was doing a short film for a class he was in asked J and I to star in it. We were cast as teen lovers. J was going off to war, and I was waiting faithfully until he returned. He asked our mutual friend to look after me because he wasn't sure how I would take the separation. Unfortunately, while he was gone I was in a horrible car accident and I lost my short term memory. Ironically to the point where I didn't remember dating him at all. When he returns home, we are all at a "Welcome Home J" party, and he rushes up to me because he hasn't been able to talk to me yet. But I think he's a creeper because I don't remember him and in my eyes, I am not his girlfriend. Our mutual friend Sam has to explain the whole thing to him, and then leaves the party with me so that I am not further creeped out. That's when J realizes that Sam and I are more than just friends, and he falls into a deep depression. Sam visits him the next day and J is contemplating suicide, Sam discourages it and tries to console him, but J forces him to leave. The next day while I'm reading the morning paper, I read that the "crazy boy from the party last night" has died. Sam explains the whole story, and we share a moment of silence. Then all of the sudden, you see a classroom full of high school kids and we zoom up on J who is fast asleep on his desk. He sits up and realizes that the whole thing was a dream. He taps on the shoulder of the girl in front of him (me) and I slowly turn around wonder what this random kid wants. J shakes his head, and the credits roll. Weird, right? I liked the dream sequence though. Its pretty cool.

Can Mute People Whisper?
They can breathe, and that's basically what whispering is. Ah well, C and I debate it all the time. And we seem to keep switching sides.

And now for The Brilliant Dorothy Parker - "That woman speaks eighteen languages, and she can’t say 'No' in any of them.""By the time you swear you're his,Shivering and sighing.And he vows his passion is,Infinite, undying.Lady make note of this --One of you is lying.""I don't care what is written about me so long as it isn't true."
"Four be the things I'd have been better without: love, curiosity, freckles and doubt."
"Constant use had not worn ragged the fabric of their friendship.""That would be a good thing for them to cut on my tombstone: Wherever she went, including here, it was against her better judgment.""Razors pain you;Rivers are damp;Acids stain you;And drugs cause cramp.Guns aren’t lawful;Nooses give;Gas smells awful;You might as well live.""Don't look at me in that tone of voice.""I don't know much about being a millionaire, but I'll betI'd be darling at it.""If you want to know what God thinks of money, just look at the people he gave it to.""Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clean to the bone.""The cure for boredom is curiosity.There is no cure for curiosity.""And if my heart be scarred and burned,The safer, I, for all I learned.""This wasn't just plain terrible, this was fancy terrible. This was terrible with raisins in it.""Drink and dance and laugh and lie, love the reeling midnight through, for tomorrow we shall die (but alas we never do)!""Four be the things I am wiser to know:Idleness, sorrow, a friend, and a foe.Four be the things I'd been better without:Love, curiosity, freckles, and doubt.Three be the things I shall never attain:Envy, content, and sufficient champagne.Three be the things I shall have till I die:Laughter and hope and a sock in the eye.""I require three things in a man: he must be handsome, ruthless, and stupid.""I'd like to have money. And I'd like to be a good writer. These two can come together, and I hope they will, but if that's too adorable, I'd rather have money.""Love is like quicksilver in the hand. Leave the fingers open and it stays. Clutch it and it darts away.""Every year, back comes Spring, with nasty little birds yapping their fool heads off and the ground all mucked up with plants.""Be you wise and never sad,You will get your lovely lad.Never serious be, nor true,And your wish will come to you--And if that makes you happy, kid,You'll be the first it ever did.""Her mind lives tidily, apart from cold and noise and pain, And bolts the door against her heart, Out wailing in the rain.""When I was young and bold and strong,The right was right, the wrong was wrong.With plume on high and flag unfurled,I rode away to right the world.But now I’m old - and good and bad,Are woven in a crazy plaid.I sit and say the world is so,And wise is she who lets it go.""Women and elephants never forget.""Money cannot buy health, but I'd settle for a diamond-studdedwheelchair.""MenThey hail you as their morning starBecause you are the way you are.If you return the sentiment,They'll try to make you different;And once they have you, safe and sound,They want to change you all around.Your moods and ways they put a curse on;They'd make of you another person.They cannot let you go your gait;They influence and educate.They'd alter all that they admired.They make me sick, they make me tired.""I shudder at the thought of men....I'm due to fall in love again""She can sit up and beg, andshe can give her paw —I don't say she will, but she can.""If you have any young friends who aspire to become writers, the second greatest favor you can do them is to present them with copies of The Elements of Style. The first greatest, of course, is to shoot them now, while they’re happy.""I was always sweet, at first. Oh, it's so easy to be sweet to people before you love them.""The sweeter the apple, the blacker the core. Scratch a lover and find a foe!"
So Life Drives Me Crazy
I am going to tell 'you' a couple random things about myself for all you creepers out there reading this so that you can understand what I mean. I don't know why I care if you understand, but here goes. I was born at the end of '94, so I call myself a 90's kid. I am a high school dropout! Cool, eh? haha not. Well, I like it. But it made my parents way mad. Over the summer I had a job working as a maid at a gross hotel in the middle of nowhere. It was pretty interesting. My boss was psycho, but she liked me, so I could live through everything else. A bunch of kids from my high school all got jobs up there along with some other random kids from who-knows-where. I spent a month or so in Connecticut after that, and now I'm just waiting for college to start. January! I've lived in an apartment before, but this is going to be way more exciting!I have a black cat. We'll call him 'cat'. And I have a few close friends/family I will be mentioning. A- My best friend since 6th grade. She is crazy awesome. Zombie apocalypse expert, never goes without a boyfriend, always has tons of pets, and super gorgeous. Also don't make her mad or bad things will randomly start happening to you. B- Fellow drop-out, total hipster, he is always up for anything. We get along so well because we're both pretty chill. He's fun to be with because he'll try anything. Also, he is sort of feminine, so he's awesome. C- My favorite kid ever. He is one of the only black kids in our town, he is very teddy bearish. Looks like he could totally beat you up, but turns out he is nice to EVERYBODY, doesn't matter who you are. D- Another best friend, we have known each other since age 3, and we never fight. She is super sweet. Almost TOO sweet if you know what I mean. I can never be mad at her for more than -1 seconds. Not like she gives me any reason to though! She is a pretty perfect friend. We always have hilarious times. J- Good friend since freshman year, is a total womanizer though! I can't count how many woman he has sworn his love to. He is a serial dater. But we all love him anyway:)J2- We became friends by emailing for a year, even though he lived in my hometown. We only hang out sometimes, but we still have tons in common, so we still keep in touch. K- My sister who is only 2 years older than me. We're probably going to room together! For some reason God has decided to surround me with super sweet people. Probably to make me feel guilty for being so darn crabby and mean all the time. Geez. But yes, K is an angel. Never gets upset, she would give a kidney to a stranger blah blah blah. I'm not bitter!! haha M- My middle brother, kind of a horndog sometimes. "Ladies man" in his head anyway. But to be fair, he is good looking. just kind of crazy sometimes. M2- This boy I started kissing over the summer. haha which, just for the record, is out of character for me. I swear. We met at my summer job, he is from podunk Montana. N- My eldest brother, computer genius, married to a chatterbox. N2- Basically my twin. She is my eldest sister, and we look and act pretty much the same. Only she is snow white. literally. She is super nice to everyone. Lets just say that we are different in that area. She has 2 adorable kids, Jazz and Little Fella. Q- M2's little brother who is my age. I had a crush on Q for a majority of the summer. Haha I try to feel bad for switching to his brother, but they are both awesome. And I can't control my feelings. Probably... Z- My little brother. He is the best kid in the whole wide world. Cute, funny, WAY smart, and sensitive. He's the trifecta. Looks, personality, and emotional stability. The girl who gets him will be a lucky duck.
