Go To A Movie By Yourself Remember when your loser ex used to bitch about your taste in movies? Today, you’re disassociating movies in the theater from first dates and hand-holding, and you’re claiming the big screen for yourself. Go see a film that he would he would have rather swallowed nail-polish...

3,000 + miles
This distance is doing wonders for me heart.
I’ve had the same tube of Cherry Chapstick since early October.
How do I still have it? How is it possible that I haven’t lost it yet? This thing has travelled thousands of miles !
I have so many memories that include this tube of chapstick.. It always just turned up in places. In the places it should have been - but where I could have sworn I never returned it.
What the...

all is fair in -
I don’t know what I was expecting. I was expecting to react differently.
I’ve been strange lately. Ever since my last week in England.. my reactions have been off. As if they’re just going to come a bit later… and when they do - it’ll be much worse than had they happened when they first intended.
I told myself not to feel sad, and I succeded. When I begun to feel...

10 Steps to Becoming a Better Writer
kari-shma:
julie911:
Write.
Write more.
Write even more.
Write even more than that.
Write when you don’t want to.
Write when you do.
Write when you have something to say.
Write when you don’t.
Write every day.
Keep writing.

For the past couple days I’ve been trying to figure out how to start writing again, after having moved countries and had a complete lifestyle change.
Things here are much different, I’m happier - I’m busy. I feel like I can achieve things.
But that strangest feeling of all.. It’s as if England never happened. I was there 2 years - and it still feels like I never left...
I must find the will the write again.
Yes you’re doing the wrong thing. Did you want me to come right out and say it?
There you have it. I do care, and these things cross my mind more than I’d like them to.
I’m worried, almost. One strange feeling after another.

The past few days have been a complete blur . A content blur, though.
Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swaps...
