I wonder why it is,
I don't argue like this,
With anyone but you,
I wonder why it is,
I wont let my guard down,
For anyone but you
We do it all the time,
Blowing out my mind.

Prayer of St Francis

Lord make me an instrument of your peace,
Where there is hatred let me sow love.
Where there is injury, pardon.
Where there is doubt, faith.
Where there is despair, hope.
Where there is darkness, light.
And where there is sadness, joy.

O divine master grant that I may
not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
To be loved as to love
For it is in giving that we receive-
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned.
And it's in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Amen 

While you were gone I did my nails.

I had 3 cookies and I drank some milk.

I'm working towards learning to walk on my own two feet without something to hold on to. I've done this before, so it won't be too hard. This time it's better because I know you'll be nearby to catch me if I stumble.

I just can't be leaning. Not like I used to.

so what?

so you dreamt about her again. about her being everything you're not.
so you woke up angry and hurt and pained and scared out of your mind.
so your day started out bad.
so what?
it was just a dream.

so you got a disappointing grade. for a paper you worked you ass off on.
so you're worried about what that says about your other grades.
so what?
get over it.

so you lost one of you earrings. one of your favourite pair that you kept for days when you needed a pick-me-up, a shot of colour.
so what?
you'll get a new pair and those will become your favourite.

so you had a bad day. where everything sucked no one rescued you.
so what?
tomorrow's a new one. (and you made it through this one didn't you?)

Feels like I have always known you
And I swear I dreamt about you
All those endless nights I was alone
It's like I've spent forever searching
Now I know that it was worth it
With you it feels like I am finally home

Falling head over heels
Thought I knew how it feels
But with you it's like the first day of my life

Cuz you leave me speechless
When you talk to me
You leave me breathless
The way you look at me
You manage to disarm me
My soul is shining through
Can't help but surrender
My everything to you

I thought I could resist you
I thought that I was strong
Somehow you were different from what I've known
I didn't see you coming
You took me by surprise and
You stole my heart before I could say no

Falling head over heels
Thought I knew how it feels
But with you it's like the first day of my life

You leave me speechless
When you talk to me
You leave me breathless
The way you look at me
You manage to disarm me
My soul is shining through
I can't help but surrender
Oh no
My everything to you

You leave me speechless
(the way you smile, the way you touch my face)
You leave me breathless
(it's something that you do I can't explain)
I run a million miles just to hear you say my name
Baby

You leave me speechless
You leave me breathless
The way you look at me
You manage to disarm me
My soul is shining through
I can't help but surrender
My everything to you

- Speechless, The Veronicas

"You're not friends. You'll never be friends. You'll be in love till it kills you both. You'll fight, and you'll shag, and you'll hate each other until it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends. Love isn't brains, children, it's blood -- blood screaming inside you to work its will. I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it".

Spike, "Lover's Walk"

Chapter 2

I love the way you say the word "message" sometimes because you sound like a little boy who needs to be taken care of, which is nice because you always take care of me and I like to think that sometimes You need Me.

I love that we are each others' best friend and we tell each other everything without fear of judgments or repercussions. You are the best friend I've ever had.

I like how we've become staples in each others' lives. It's not just you or just me anymore. We come together now.

I love how you make the effort to befriend my mum and my sister and I love that you're doing a good job at it. They seem to love you!

Even though I pretend not to, I love how you're super sweet and attentive when you've spent all day doing things without me. I'm usually sore from being lonely all day and I act like a spoilt brat, but you know just how to soothe me.

I thought I'd take pictures of my latest batch.

I've been told that my cupcakes are the best so you won't regret it! :)

I love how we make up random stories about random people or random things at random places and then be amused by them for the longest time. Remember Gopal our poor 147 friend? Or what about the little boy on the train? The one with the weight of the world on his shoulders? How about Socks and Bullet and Arrow?

I love how you love Maxie now and you ask about him and you want to know what his day was like. If he could understand it, I'm sure he'd be nicer to you.

I love how we talk like each other all the time now and don't even realise it. It's damn BARE.

I love how you say "WHEN we get married" in your everyday speech, like you KNOW it's going to happen and it's all just a matter of when. Kind of like when we say things like "WHEN I start working" or "WHEN I get old". Just one of those things that's meant to happen eventually.

oh you psycho-stalker bitch you. always wanting what you can't have. always going to great lengths to get the things you crave.

always getting pushed away. (hahahahaha. you had that one coming! oh cmon! admit it!)

take the hint, why don't you?

you're the only crazed one around. no one likes you when you get that way, least of all him. what do you think you're being? sexy? seductive? sweet? the best lover in the world? don't kid yourself. it's not what he wants.

the way you act, you're much closer to being a slut. think about that!

and maybe try and behave. and be the lady you're meant to be. mature and grown up. you're not a 16-year-old horn-dog anymore you know? those days are long gone and you best start acting like it.
