quotes

a random selection of some of the best (aka my favorite) quotes:
*which will be updated as often as necessary



Life is about th
ose summer days and the sand between your toes and the smiles on your face. It's about comfy couches, rainy days, backyard sprinklers, and those late night talks. It's about top down rides and wind in your face; those are the moments you've never felt so alive. It's about finding someone to hold onto, and knowing they're not holding anything back. It's about holding hands and pressing lips, giving it your best and having no regrets. Life isn't only about the destination, but the journey that gets us there.










Love is passion. Obsession. Someone you can't live without. Someone you fall head over heels for. Find someone you can love like crazy, and will love you the same way back. Listen to your heart. No sense in life without this. To make the journey without falling deeply in ...love, you haven't lived a life at all. You have to try, because if you haven't tried, then you haven't lived



Life is not the amount of breaths you take, it's the moments that take your breath away.

we ignore the ones who adore us, adore the ones who ignore us, love the ones who hurt us, and hurt the ones who love us.


If you're not willing to risk it all, then you don't want it bad enough

Maybe the truth is there's a little bit of loser in all of us, ya know? Being happy isn't having everything in your life be perfect. Maybe it's about stringing together all the little things-- making those count for more than the bad stuff. Maybe we just get through it... and that's all we can ask for.

pet peeves

pet peeve [noun] a particular and often continual annoyance annoyance


there aren't too many things that i just absolutely cannot stand, but there are a few things that piss me off.

one for starters is traffic. i hate it with a burning passion. especially when driving my stick shift, Big Blue aka Blue Rhino. the thing with traffic though, besides just pissing me off is that the very essence of it doesn't make sense. if everyone is going at the same speed (otherwise known as the speed limit) how does it all the sudden get backed up? yes i understand that along the way cars are joining the moving masses, but cars must also be leaving too. because unless your
all going to some major sporting event or concert (although i'm more talking about like rush hour traffic or random traffic on a highway..don't even get me started on ski traffic or beach traffic) you don't all live in the exact same place. so why is no one moving? that is my unanswered question. it both annoys and disturbs me.

another pet peeve of mine is when people tell you that you're sunburned. its like telling someone the color of their eyes or that they have two arms...completely unnecessary. because let me tell you a secret--they know they're sunburned.

one that may strike you as odd is that i cant eat oreo cookies whole, i have to split them in half (while usually trying to get the middle all by itself). but that's not all, the real strange part is that i get the chills (think nails on a chalk board feeling) when seeing someone just take a bite out of an oreo whole. i have absolutely no idea why, but it really creeps me out.
