not a day goes by where i don’t think about what else i could be doing when you’re gone. and all i can come up with is thinking and looking forward to the next time i’ll be seeing you.

and you haven’t even left.

bathroom break.

bathroom break.

i never knew i could be a mess this bad. 

…and may the odds be ever in our favor.

For so long have I waited for this week to come: Spring Break. What used to be a week to relax and think nothing of school is now an entire week of opportunity to catch up on all the coursework. Though I wished for it to be something I could enjoy out of town, responsibilities scream for attention, but for that I am not bitter. At least not anymore.

Life is a tough challenge for those who seek it most. I am not overly ambitious, neither am I an enthusiast of wealth. I am an ordinary individual looking for a peace of mind somewhere in between all the chaos that surrounds me. I want a life - my own life. A life I can share with my parents and my siblings. A life that my own family and I could enjoy someday. I want a simple life that I can always be proud of.

That life is my dream, and I am here, chasing it.

One thing I’ve learned recently, though? I no longer have to chase it alone =)

And I am ever so grateful and so excited for our future…together.

I learned the hard way that I cannot always count on others to respect my feelings, even if I respect theirs. Being a good person doesn’t guarantee that others will be good people, too. You only have control over yourself and how you choose to be as a person. As for others, you can only choose to accept them or walk away.

Reblogged from twentythree :
patricia, sometimes you have to let that pride go and realize that you cannot always ‘fix’ anything - or anyone - unless it’s meant to be fixed that way. sometimes, you’re just gonna have to accept the circumstances as they are. and if you couldn’t, then that’s something called settling.
Here’s all you have to know about men and women: women are crazy, men are stupid. And the main reason women are crazy is that men are stupid.

maybe a little too blunt, but i couldn’t disagree.
