“life is like dinner. you anticipate the dessert so much that you forget about the main course.” -m


the thing i’m afraid of so much is the future, and how happy i will be. i’m so scared of things going bad for me. i’m scared of having a hard time in college as i do now. but i’m just scaring myself. i don’t know a single thing about my future.

don’t plan for the future. don’t even think ahead. because things don’t always go as planned. nothing is set up perfectly. let God set up the steps for you to lead you into the right direction. 

the lingering moon

I watch the sun in wonder
Gazing at its brightness
fills me with joy and
a sort of feeling of lightness

He shines upon the earth
I wait on the other side
Although I wish so much to reach him
at his presence, I hide

May the moon absorb more of its shine?
May she have the same glow?
And this shy distance
can we ever just let it go?

In this endless cycle, 
In this endless game
Will the sun ever be mine?
or will it stay just the same?



I like having those moments where my mind drifts away from the blur of memories that swam flamboyantly between the crevices of my brain so restlessly. it’s like falling into a pit of nothingness; breathing the flat air, the stillness of the environment easing my cringing body, until all my nerves have ceased to move me. I am away from the world, and nothing can mentally harm me.

if there’s one thing i’m looking forward to, it’s to be smitten again. i know i know, i can be happy without a boyfriend or whatever but i can be happier as long as i find the one who’s perfect for me. i don’t know, it’s just something i always look forward to. i think every single person does. it does irritate me sometimes that i don’t have one right now, while everyone else is entertained, but i try to remind myself that the perfect time will come. 

i remember all the problems you told me, without telling me that they are, because you’d wrinkle your forehead and look down at the floor. i remember when you were comfortable enough to talk to me about deeper things. now i only see you once in a while; some awkward hellos and hugs and nothing else. 

it’s sad how i build amazing relationships with people but they drift away so quickly.

There’s this 7th grader I know, who really needs to slow the fuck down. In the above pictures, she has a nose piercing, in which she pierced herself, and she raped her ears.

See, I recall having a conversation with her on Thanksgiving, in which my mom went to her family’s house, after being invited. I thought she was 16; turns out she was 12 at the time. I noticed a few things about her, though: She wore this bra, that seemed to bring her boobs, up to her collarbones. She caked her face, so much, it looks like polished plastic.

She just didn’t look like the average 12 year-old, but a girl whom’s age was questionable. She looks like she’s asking for it, most likely trying to attract older guys, too. Not just that though, she dated a guy who was in his Sophomore year, with her only being in 7th grade. She happily boasted that she did things with him, and not only that,she giggled and said, “Well, I’m kinda not a virgin.”

What honestly bothers me about this, and her, is that she sees herself as being so mature. Now she’s dating a different guy, who’s obviously a lot older than her. She decides to make at least five Facebook statuses, complaining about other people, her age, and how they complain. She justifies herself as being so knowledgeable, when she obviously is just a kid.

To all you kids who aren’t in high school yet; you are young. I understand that you want to impress others, but that doesn’t mean you should go off looking like a Barbie. You shouldn’t be trying to attract older guys, either. I know age may seem like just another number, but when you tell people you’re 12, or young, what do you think, they think? If your mentality is really based off the internet, and what you’re experiencing in middle school, you haven’t experienced shit. You’re still young, and you shouldn’t be trying to grow up any faster. Especially running yourself down, and putting yourself out there. Easy girls will just be taken advantage of; don’t complain about getting heart-broken, when you, “do.”

You’re a kid. You’re not in high school, and you shouldn’t be doing drugs, or drinking, or even partying, yet. You should have better priorities, rather than having low morals. You’ll learn that, in time.

Really?

Amen to this. Tired of little kids trying to be all grown up thinking they know what the “adult life” is like.

(via imgTumble)

it’s sad to think that this is how our next generation of kids is growing up to be. and i believe that the best way to prevent kids like her who want to “grow up” so fast is by knowing how to properly raise them. it doesn’t have to be their parents responsibility — they depend on their peers as well for influence. one of the main reasons why 10 or 12 year olds try to dress, act, or think like “adults” is because they see us (the older teenagers/young adults) displaying these low morals to them. thankfully, some people of my age have come to understand that drinking, doing drugs, and lust isn’t the path to true happiness or success. but a lot of teenagers haven’t realized that yet.

so, “90s kids”? we need to start thinking right and acting as good role models to these kids. let’s teach them to grow up avoiding all the mistakes that we’ve made, because in the end, it can really benefit the future of our society.

what if the word “ugly” didn’t even exist.

what if, in everybody’s eyes, everyone was literally beautiful in their own different way.

what if our society didn’t have a perception of what would be considered physically unattractive.

what if.

Complaints of a daughter with strict asian parents

I understand why my parents are really strict when it comes to allowing me to hang out with friends; its been like this for as long as i can remember. But its been so long already that ive proved to them that i know how to set my limits and how to take care of myself, yet they still dont find the trust to allow me to go anywhere. Ive turned down invitations because i have to study, do homework, or babysit. Sometimes i turn them down just because id rather spend time with my family that day. But the one time where im actually free, and they dont need my assistance; the one time where im actually hanging out with people they can and should trust, theres still that 60% chance of them saying no. Another thing that bothers me is the fact that their reasons of not letting me go is just.. I dont even know how to describe it but its not strong enough for me to be convinced that i shouldnt go.

my favorite types of fictional love stories is the ones where the boy and girl have known each other before, but never thought they’d be in the relationship they’re in with each other now — katniss & peeta, hermione & ron. 

as always, a quick review of a good movie i just watched: the hunger games.

let me just start off by saying how satisfied i am as a reader of the book since 2010. although there were changes from the book and they left off some of my favorite moments, such as the ending where “the boy with the bread was gone” (which could’ve been a way better ending.. a cliffhanger), the graphics, the acting, and ESPECIALLY the cinematography was sooooo good! better than what i had expected. i loved the transitions of where they showed the burnt bread, and when katniss was hit with the tracker jackers. jennifer and josh were the perfect actors for their characters — their expressions were just spot-on — in fact the director chose the perfect cast. you can understand what they were feeling without the description of the book, and it is amazing. i don’t know how long it will take me to get over this movie. i look forward to getting the dvd and watching it over and over and over again. OH. and their kiss angle wasn’t a fail unlike ron and hermione’s. i’m not hating but i’m just saying..
