"Just because today is a terrible day doesn't mean tomorrow won't be the best day of your life. You just gotta get there."
it's something like this that gets me through my bad days because i hold on to the fact that things will get better. because everything can get better, except death. that's a permanent thing.
what i'm trying to say is: even if for a moment life seems hopeless you just have to look into your future and see the good that could come. or look into your past and see the good that had transpired. everything in life could turn into something good.
just slow down and make the change you want in your life. sometimes these changes just come upon you, other times you have to fight for the goodness. it's worth waiting for no matter what way it comes.

wish
QUOTE
"It's 11:11... make a wish."
it may seem ridiculous to wish on numbers, because (der) it's not going to come true. i mean, seriously... just because they happen to be all the same number does not make them all that better than all the other numbers.
but, if you forget the whole wish-coming-true part, it really can be fun. so just blurt (in your head) the first thing that comes to mind. the first thing you can think of that you want. try it next time you see eleven eleven come up on your clock. you'd probably be surprised. pleasently so.

(btw, just me, you know ... maybe, a friend, secret agent man, edward nigma, a heartbroken romantic, a chocolate lover and whatever alias you may use in the future... i know who you are. and... damn... you are good at this whole comment thing. keep doing it... or i'll call you at three in the moring until i get married... love, sir!)

best friend
QUOTE
"Be a best friend. Surrender your chocolate."
-Dove Chocolate Wrapper
i realized that i talk about a lot of the same things over and over again. how arm-gnawingly boring. i just have a lot of quotes on the same things. i should broaden my quote horizons.
anyways
what makes a best friend? just liking eachother a lot? having wild sleep overs? hum... what?
i think it's a mixture of inside jokes and calling eachother names. i mean, if you can call someone "bitch" or "asshole" and they think nothing of it, then you two are definitely in for the long hall. best friends are the people who will always be there. like, until death do you part, non-sex verison.
so. if you have someone who you call "bitch", have multible inside jokes, can see with you in the nursing home and would share their chocolate with you without a second thought, then you better inform them that you are sticking with them like bubble gum sticks with hair.

belonging
QUOTE
"Why do we even bother? Why do we make ourselves so open to such easy damage? Is it all loneliness? Is it fear? Or is it just to experiance those narcotic moments of belonging with someone else?"
-Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist, Rachel Cohen and
this sums up the questions i've been asking myself lately. why do we love when we know that it will end up with a break up? i didn't quite understand this. i don't think anybody truely does, but this book got it at least a little right.
i think part of the reason we love is to belong to someone else. to be theirs and to have someone be yours. it feels good and right. something you don't want to give up. no one but a lover can quite fulfill this role.
perhaps, it is as the quote hints. a mixture between lonliness and fear. lonliness... it's not fun for anyone to be alone, but if you share your thoughts and feelings and waking moments with someone else it makes them all more real. to you and to the world. fear... of lonliness. of not belonging. of belonging. of giving yourself up. of not giving anything. of darkness. of light. there are a hundred reasons to fear. and loving someone else is one of them.
i'm not going to give any advice. i just know that belonging to someone (anyone) is worht all the shit afterwards.

nothing in the world
QUOTE
"There's nothing like deep breaths after laughing that hard; nothing in the world like a sore stomach for the right reasons."
you know that feeling. when your stomach aches like you've been doing scrunches for the last 5 minutes? it feels good right? almost like you've done something worth while in your life. and you don't want that strange sore feeling to go away. you want it to stay and remind you that everything terrible in life can be put aside by one good, long, hard laugh.
that is what this post in about. nothing in life could be so bad if you just let go every once in a while. find some friends and watch your favorite movie or.... or go bowling! that is always fraught in laughter.
life is meant to be lived. you can't live life if you're always worried or sad. so comand you to laugh. right now. do it. you know you want to. come on. oh, come on. why aren't you? seriously? it's all i ask. one little smile. do it! oh, come now. i don't mean do it like that. get your mind out of the gutter, perv. :)

kiss cry dream
QUOTE
"The best things in life are unseen. That's why we close our eyes when we kiss, cry and dream."
i'm going to break this one down into three sections. why you close your eyes at each and why it's so good.
KISS= well, my logical part says "because it would be effing awkward if you opened your eyes while kissing someone. but, as always, my ethical side wins out.
anyways, i think you close your eyes because then you don't feel with them. you don't have to think about what you're seeing and process it and clutter your brain with unnessessary things. you feel with your arms and your lips and your heart. It's just so much better that way. to feel things in an unlogical manner. your eyes are always logical. they can only see what is right in front of them. your heart sees the unseen beauty in life.
CRY= logical: because you're trying to stop it? but, crying can be a good thing. i'm stil trying to figure out how. is it because it releases emotion and afterwards, after you sleep, you feel better? or is this only talking about happy crying? crying when you're so happy, so overwhelmed! that you just can't keep it inside. those kinds of tears are the best. the kind that just fall out and make happy little drops on your skin. this is something that seldom happens. i bet you can't remember the last time this happened. i can't. i just know it feels so good. to be filled with so much good emotion.
DREAM= logical: because you sleep? in order to dream you have to sleep and in order to sleep you have to close your eyes. but, true dreaming isn't the kind where you sleep and have strange disjointed dreams. that's just your mind's way to... express?... itself. but true true true dreaming. the real deal dreaming. comes from the heart. the deepest things you want. the ones you would do anything for are born in your heart. like cinderella said "a dream is a wish your heart makes." you can close your eyes and feel them there. feel them growing and changing and being. they are the most wonderful thing. even when they don't come true. they are still wonderful. definitely a good thing
all in all, i think you should try to find a way to do these things. find your dreams. find someone who you can be close to. cry for all the good things in life. just live it up.

brace yourself for the impact
QUOTE
"I lock my hands behind my head, I cover my heart and hit the deck, I'd brace myself for the impact if I were you."
–Am I Missing, Dashboard Confessional
the way i see this song is someone knowing an inpending doom is coming (i see it as a love thing, that's just how my brain works) they know something bad is coming. something that will hurt, something that they can somehow prepare for, even though they can't stop it. so they do.
they protect all of themselves they can. their brain ("lock my hands behind my head") their heart ("cover my heart") their body ("hit the deck")
they are also trying to protect the other person. i feel it's more of a "you don't don't know how much this will hurt you. protect yourself a little" because contrary to popular belief, a break up hurts both parties involved.
but all you can do is brace yourself. there really is nothing you can do about it. though, if you think you ahve a really good thing, a right thing, fight. fight for what you need/want/have. sometimes i wish i would have fought.

Vlad: break ups do hurt both parties but it isn't the end of the world
dude. stop raining on my parade!
but you are right, it isn't the end of the world. yet, for just a few moments it feels like it is. even if you hate eachother it still feels like it.

change your life
QUOTE
"Every connection has the potential to change your life."
-Dove Chocolate Wrapper
every person you meet. every person you say hi to. every new thing you do. could change who you are. i know it seems impossible, but it's true.
try it sometime. try letting someone new sort of take over. don't try to go against the grain. if someone new feels right just go with it. it can be fun. and when it's over, you can see how much you've changed.
two years ago i met someone. i let it go where it wanted. and now i'm so different than what i used to be it isn't even plausible. in two years i grew up so much. i've learned what is like to love, to hate, to break, to mend. i'm more mature now and i found someone who will always be there for me. and i grew more confident.
new people are wonderful. don't be afraid to try them out sometimes. let them change your life.

bittersweet victory
QUOTE
"it's a bittersweet victory, lovin' the ghost in front of me"
-Keep You, Sugarland
ok. first, this song is the sizzle. the entire song describes what it's like to love someone so much just to have them leave you. it was me for a few weeks after drew broke up with me. it's beautiful. if you can find and listen to it please do.
anyways.
sometimes, after someone breaks up with you you still see them. everyday. and talk to them. and love them. yet they only see you as a friend.
part of you is screaming and ripping and hurting. becuse you can't have them. never again. they will always just be a ghost. not what they can be, what they were. and it hurts like hell. seeing them happy when you're so unhappy.
another part of you is happy beyond belief. if they spend time with you it's almost like you're still together. almost like they still love you. even though you know it's all unture, it still pays to lie to yourself.
it's a victory, because you can still see them. but it's bittersweet because afterwards you feel awful. you still love this person who is a ghost.
the only thing you can do is take a step back and figure out what's right for you. sometimes it's not tlkign to them ever again. just quitting them cold. other times it's just stopping for a little while and beginning again when you can handle it. (i.e. are over them) sometimes you can stay and you will find someone else whileyou see them. there might be soemthign else that works. it all depends on the person. all i know is that it's really hard to do. i would know. but it can be done.

hello and welcome
hi, i figured before i started in on the whole quote thing i would tell you a little about myself.
my name is hayley (obviously) and i live in wisconsin. it's really not as dorky as you think. i've never been closer than a few hundred feet to a cow, i've only ridden a horse once and i don't live on a farm. there are a lot of stereotypes about wisconsin and a lot of them are untrue. one thing about me IS true, though. i apsolutely love (love love love) the Packers. a little piece of my heart belongs to them and it's dyed green and gold.
i'm involved in forensics and theatre. it's pretty much my life. i'm quite the boring person when it comes to activities. i take vioce lessons. that's been going on for about 2 and 3/4 years now and soon my mom will be getting me guitar lessons.
i love my family and my friends. they are the ones who pick me up when i fall. i'm an only chold, so that means i am really close to my parentals. i'm with my mom all summer long and she's one of my very good friends (even though she drives me crazy! and we fight about once a day, i love her anyways) and i consider myself to be quite the daddy's girl since he never comes around in the summer because of work and i'm attached to him whenever he does get home. i love them both.
my friends are fabulous, though, since we're threatre nerds, we tend to get a bit dramatic. my best best best best best friend is laura. i'm always over at her house or she's over here... i'm contempating making her pay rent. we can read eachothers minds... we're practically one person. and my other really good friend is drew. he knows me better than anyone, even laura. we also have quite the history... something i don't need to get into. but i love both of my 'hos like none other. i would put myself between a mad shooter and them any day. :) i do have other friends (kesa, meghan, bethany, scott, michael, just to name a few) but those two are my besties fa eva.
i also have tim, my boyfriend. we haven't been dating very long, but we've already been through a couple things that should have broken us and yet we're still here. so, he's worth it. he's also helping me find my god. it'll be difficult, but i think one day i'll be able to say i'm a true believer. i'm sick of not believing in anything greater than myself.
well, i think i've said enough about myself. i haven't been able to write like that in a while... now i'm going to more on to funner (yup, it's a work now) things. like quotes. yay!
