Hate is safer than love.

Fall in love with rebounds? Every time. But it's not real love, your head tricks you into it to protect you from the crushing pain your heart is putting you through.

Do you ever look at a couple on the street and wonder how they got there? They look so blissfully happy, holding hands and smiling while they walk away. How did they get to that point in their life? Do they fight when they get home? Will they be broken up by tomorrow? Truth is, we really don't know. And we really don't know much about love. Sure, you can read all the books you want about it - but no book, or quote or philosopher can ever accurately describe how you are going to feel the second you fall in love. Now I don't claim to know everything, but I've been through a lot. And everything I've learned has taught me a lesson - more hard ones than helpful, but all the same I learned something. I can't really tell you if I've ever been in real love.. but I guess I think of love as something like you can't live, can't breathe, or be separated from each other kind of thing. Now that may sound silly but that's how I would want it to be. I would want someone to miss me so much it hurt and couldn't picture their life without me. I think everyone is scared to let someone in and fall in love, because that means letting your guard down. It's easier to shut someone out than it is to let them in and see who you really are.. guilty party of one. So next time someone wants to see your heart, don't shut them out.. I'm not saying fall in love right away, but if you do.. invite me to the wedding and sit me next to a really hot guy.

The drinks we drank last night.

Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk.. that'll teach you to keep your mouth shut.


You know that Kenny Chesney song.. "We went out last night, one thing started leading to another.." Yeah, that was my night. Let me just break it down for you.. made new friends, started drinking at 8 pm, played 10 games of beer pong, 20 games of flip cup, a few beer bongs later called a cab to take us downtown - made friends with the cab driver Dave, went to the Cellar, got hit on by four creepy guys and screamed at by one just because I wouldn't dance with him - I couldn't leave my girl Kim hanging. Left cellar and had no way home, it was pouring down the rain and we ran down High Street chasing down the drunk bus, got on the bus with 2,000 other drunk college kids - one of which had a bottle of Jager in his pants - kudos kid. Got off at the wrong bus stop and had to walk three miles back to the car in the rain. All and all it was a good night. I honestly have no clue how we survived, but we did & it makes for one hell of a story. That's what college is supposed to be about right? Making poor life choices but coming out of it with an awesome story.. check!






So my most listened to today are as follows..


1. Out Last Night - Kenny Chesney. Listen to it here
2. Keg In The Closet - Kenny Chesney. Listen to it here

Believe me, I'm lying.

 I've learned love is like a brick, you can build a house or sink a dead body.


Another 3 am posting, this is officially a record. I really don't have a lot to say, just that I really hate when I'm trying to go up to someone, being the bigger person about things and they walk away mid-sentence. What does that solve? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Whatever. It's not my fault you were lying to me and her at the same time. It's not my fault you got caught. It's not my fault you can't keep up with your own lies. It's not my fault that when I try to at least make a civil conversation you get all freaked out and run away, yes runaway do it, please. That is literally what that was. You're scared, and I don't blame you. But it's not like I'm going to come at you with a flamethrower. Shit happens, it's life.. and yeah, sometimes life's not fair but we just have to deal. Over it.


On a musical note.. Lady Gaga just dropped her new single Judas yesterday. I have to say, I didn't think I was going to like it.. but I really do. Read the lyrics. It makes a lot more sense.

Sad songs for dirty lovers.

Every song ends but is that any reason not to enjoy the music?


It's 3 am. I'm so delusional, so forgive me if this post rambles. It's one of those nights where I have way too much on my mind to sleep, and I definitely just caught myself belting out JoJo's Too Little Too Late into my hairbrush a while I was attempting to brush my hair - fail. So, here I sit, after yet another crazy night.. and what am I doing? Listening to songs that are making me sad. I miss a lot of things. For instance, when I went home earlier I took my brother up to the playground behind my parents house.. it brought back so many high school memories. Bonfires, crazy truth-or-dare games, and football games. I miss being carefree and seventeen. The world seemed so big and promising, now it just seems cold and scary. I miss my outlook on life and the future, I was so hopeful. Now I really don't know what to think. I've learned that everything in life has to be earned, people don't just give things to you. The real world is a lot harder than I ever could have imagined. But for that brief instant on that swing set tonight I saw the world through the same perspective I did when I was in high school - it made me feel safe somehow? Usually I have some sort of moral to my posts, but sadly for this one I don't.. just a list of songs that are my most listened to right now.


Too Little Too Late - JoJo
Alejandro - Lady Gaga
He Said, She Said (Time We Let Go) - NLT
Cry Me A River - Justin Timberlake
Leave (Get Out) - JoJo
Backseat - New Boyz
Use Your Love - Katy Perry
Diary - Tino Coury
What I Got - Sublime
(Ohio) Come Back To Texas - Bowling For Soup
Dark Blue - Jacks Mannequin
Baby - Justin Bieber
Kiss & Tell - Justin Bieber
Eenie Meenie - Justin Bieber
One Less Lonely Girl - Justin Bieber

Life in a glass house.

Have you ever wondered how long it takes to change your life? What measure of time is enough to be life altering? Is it four years like high school, one year, an eight year rock tour? Can your life change in a month, a week, or a single day? We are always in a hurry to grow, to go places, to get ahead.. but when you're young, one hour can change everything.


Just in case you haven't been listening to the radio for the past couple weeks, there is a relatively new band being promoted for a high school invasion concert.. their name? Junior Doctor. A band out of Coco Beach and just dropped their brand new album on January 25th called Clumsy Words and Bad Pickup Lines. Needless to say, this band is the reason I fell in love with music in the first place. Their lyrics are so relatable and so honest.. not to mention very catchy.




So naturally my most listened to today is from Junior Doctor. Tracks #3 Uh Oh & #11 Not Now are great.


Listen to Uh Oh here.
Listen to Not Now here.

When it isn't like it should be..

Aren’t you tired of measuring yourself to what guys think?


So I know I haven't posted in a few days, truth is, I haven't had much inspiration to until today. While working on my medical terminology homework, a commercial came on for the new season of 16 & Pregnant. Now mind you, this will make season THREE for MTV's series.



I seriously do NOT understand this madness. WHY market these girls and showcase their pregnancy to the world? Maybe they don't realize that fourteen year old girls watch this show, maybe they don't think that they glamorize the on-air girls situations to make it look a little easier than it is. Now I don't have a child, nor was I pregnant in high school, but I did grow up with a brother who is eleven years younger than me, so I do have some level argument ground to stand on. What really gets on my nerves is that they have open casting calls for girls posted on MTV's website, don't believe me? check it out. They are WANTING teenage girls to get knocked up so they can continue to bring in bank with their TV show. I'm aware that thousands of girls a day in the US become pregnant on a daily basis, and their lives aren't taped. No one sees the struggles and trying times these young women are forced to go through, and I applaud them. I'm a selfish twenty year old, and I know that I would not be as strong as half of these girls. I'm not going to throw statistics out there, because any health class you've taken since 4th grade has done nothing but preach.. but if you want the nitty gritty facts..


Take the time to visit some of those links.
