here’s another meme:
my ex is one of the people whom i loved dearly.
maybe i won’t ever have the state of mind to fix things, and that is not a liberating thought.
i love the way writing good poetry and prose makes me feel.
i don’t understand how some people could be so heartless.
i lose track of time, most of the time.
love is a constant decision made over and over, and something that is forcefully sustained, time and again. and according to coelho (which is such a beautiful definition imho), love is being in commune with the other, and discovering in the other the spark of God.
somewhere, someone is alone, because she just doesn’t get it.
forever started already. well, at least mine did.
i never could stand conyo-speak.
when i wake up before i’m supposed to, i become a hag.
my past has been very helpful in making me who i am now.
i get annoyed when people start to become mean.
parties are fun events. but so are coffee-convo sessions.
kisses are the best when coupled with passion. whooo. hot hot.
i really want to live my dreams. right now.
i have low tolerance for grammatical mistakes. and text lingo. and assuming people. and posers. and unprincipled individuals. and two-faced backstabbing witches. and hypocrites. oh, a lot of things. fortaragis. just thinking about it makes me wanna scream. harrrrr.
tomorrow will be more exciting than today, i bet my ass on it.
