Love Is Picky

Love Can Come And Go

Have you ever had that feeling when you pass somebody in the hallway and all of the sudden you find out you love that person, just based on his/her appearance. It's amazing how your mind suddenly conjures up a fantasy life in the few seconds you see that person in the hallway and then when you pass that person, you don't like him/her anymore. It's weird right? I'm not going to hide anything, and I'm just going to put it out there that this has happened to me so many times over the past few days. But it's the same thing. I pass somebody in the hallway, and it's over in a second.

As of now? Well, there's one person on my mind. I'm not sure of my feelings for her, but I don't know. She stands out. Love is kind of like a grenade. You know you want to poke it and experiment with it, but you're afraid of getting hurt.

Collaboration Blog

So Tyler and I have started up our co-op blog for a while now and I'd say it's running pretty well. We don't really have that much of an audience now and probably over half of the views are from me (since I didn't place a cookie that wouldn't track my views, but I'll do that right after this). I just wish we could get our blog out to a wider audience.

People just haven't seen the type of blogging that Tyler and I do simply because they think we're inexperienced and new bloggers. I can only hope that it will only be a little bit of time until somebody who I don't know actually finds my blog.

Anyways, I missed a post (don't know how that happened) and now I'm awaiting a punishment. Tyler says he's going to come up with one by the 30, so I can't wait to see what could take so long for him to think up.

Life Is Bitter Sweet

I'm enjoying life right now. Rugby is really awesome and I can't wait for our first game of the season. High school is truly going to be the best years of my young life.

Today I'm a 9. I feel pretty good about life overall and everything is just running smoothly. Nothing really is bugging me except for the fact that I do know that it will be hard to make really good and true friends at this school.

"I've found almost everything ever written about love to be true. Shakespeare said, "Journeys end in lovers meeting." What an extraordinary thought. Personally, I have not experienced anything remotely close to that, but I am more than willing to believe Shakespeare had. I suppose I think about love more than anyone really should. I am constantly amazed by its sheer power to alter and define our lives. It was Shakespeare who also said "love is blind". Now that is something I know to be true. For some quite inexplicably, love fades; for others love is simply lost. But then of course love can also be found, even if just for the night. And then, there's another kind of love: the cruelest kind. The one that almost kills its victims. Its called unrequited love. Of that I am an expert. Most love stories are about people who fall in love with each other. But what about the rest of us? What about our stories, those of us who fall in love alone? We are the victims of the one sided affair. We are the cursed of the loved ones. We are the unloved ones, the walking wounded." - Iris from The Holiday
