Christina Perri

My freakin' idol.
I love her so much.
She's so down to Earth.
And just so.. REAL.
And she's beautiful. 
And I love her hair.
And her crooked bottom teeth give her character. 
And.. well yeah. 
<3

Some of her songs that I currently have on repeat:


The Lonely 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppwus1TZwZE&feature=related

2am, where do I begin
Crying off my face again
The silent sound of loneliness
Wants to follow me to bed

I'm the ghost of a girl
That I want to be most
I'm the shell of a girl
That I used to know well

Dancing slowly in an empty room
Can the lonely take the place of you
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
Let you go and let the lonely in
To take my heart again

Too afraid, to go inside
For the pain of one more loveless night
For the loneliness will stay with me
And hold me till I fall asleep

I'm the ghost of a girl
That I want to be most
I'm the shell of a girl
That I used to know well

Dancing slowly in an empty room
Can the lonely take the place of you
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
Let you go and let the lonely in
To take my heart again

Broken pieces of
A barely breathing story
Where there once was love
Now there's only me
And the lonely...

Dancing slowly in an empty room
Can the lonely take the place of you
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
Let you go and let the lonely in
To take my heart again...

Arms

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeW0Sl0tNS8&feature=related

I never thought that you would be the one to hold my heart
You came around and you knocked me off the ground from the start

You put your arms around me
And I believe that it's easier for you to let me go
You put your arms me and I'm home

How many times will let you me change my mind and turn around?
I can't decide if I'll let you save my life or if I'll drown
I hope that you see right through my walls
I hope that you catch me 'cause I'm already falling
I'll never let our love get so close
You put your arms around me and I'm home

The world is coming down on me and I can't find a reason to be loved
I never wanna leave you but I can't make you bleed if I'm alone

You put your arms around me
And I believe that it's easier for you to let me go...

I hope that you see right through my walls
I hope that you catch me 'cause I'm already falling
I'll never let our love get so close...

You put your arms around me and I'm home...

You put your arms around me and I'm home...


Penguin 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=guFr8Esvbco&feature=related

Can you find the time
to let your lover love you
He only wants to show you,
the things he wants to learn too
The hardest parts you'll get through
And in the end you'll have your best friend

Love like this may come once
Baby it's fate like a soul mate
He's your penguin
Baby it's fate
Baby it's fate not luck

Can you find the time
to let your lover hold you
He needs somebody to hold too,
his loves strong and so true
His arrow is aiming for you
And he's the one that you were born to love

Love like this may come once
Baby it's fate like a soul mate
He's your penguin
Baby it's fate
Baby it's fate not luck

Let go, let go of time for you and I
Let go, let go of time for you and I
Let go, let go of time for you and I

Love like this is all I want
Baby we're fate
Love like this may come once
Baby we're fate like a soul mate
You're my penguin
Baby we're fate
Baby it's fate not luck

DayDream

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDLKDMqrajE&feature=related

Finally your time has come
Now's my chance to turn and run
Like I always do

Build a story in my head
It was love before we met
Happy, with my idea with you

Stay where you are
Please don't break my heart

Love you in my daydream
Don't open your mouth, open your mouth
Everything I'll ever need
Spoil it now, spoil it now
You stood up and I fell down

Watching me, watching you
I know what you wanna do
But I'm afraid of my wish coming true

So I paint a picture in my mind, that
I go back to older times
It's better than being with you

Stay where you are
Please don't break my heart

Love you in my daydream
Don't open your mouth, open your mouth
Everything I'll ever need
Spoil it now, spoil it now
You stood up and I fell down

I don't know how to come down
I was lost and now I am found
You stood up and I fell down

Love you in my daydream
Don't open your mouth, open your mouth
Everything I'll ever need
Spoil it now, spoil it now

Love you in my daydream
Don't open your mouth, open your mouth
Everything I'll ever need
Spoil it now, spoil it now

Love you in my daydream

Black and Blue

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtsCBSmuCNg&feature=related


And I've been meaning to say this to you,
My heart isn't black and blue anymore,
And your words don't mean a thing,
When they're sung in vain,

Maybe I was wrong,
I only remember feeling so alone,

This isn't where I meant to lay down,
But you dug this grave - fits me perfectly,
And if you're asking if I'm over love,
You're a fool to believe that you gave me some,

It's been raining here like it never should,
And I can't help believe it's because you're coming,
And if a child wants to run away and a child wants to hide,
Oh, don't come following your fantasy,
Cause you might be surprised, she'll run right back inside,

And maybe I was wrong,
I only remember feeling so alone,

This isn't where I meant to lay down,
But you dug this grave - fits me perfectly,
And if you're asking if I'm over love,
You're a fool to believe,
You're a fool to believe that you gave me some,

Dear Blogger,

So, you know how I'm a big fan of Tumblr now?
I know I said that I'd never get addicted to Tumblr...
but I can't help myself.
I still love you and will post as frequently as I can.

xoxo

Sing us a song you're the off-pitch man

Okay.
I feel really awful.
I literally CAN'T not laugh at someone singing off pitch. Not because I'm trying to be rude. I actually don't even know why I laugh. It's almost involuntary. I guess I just think it's funny that the person isn't singing right. It's like when someone who is actually a good singer sings horribly to be funny. I s'pose I just think that the person is trying to be funny... So I laugh.

I was practicing playing and singing a song for a soon-arriving audition for my school choir, and I wanted my mom to sing with me as a way to show my friendship toward her and because I know she likes the song. I couldn't do it. I was close to peeing in my pants I was laughing so hard. And all she sang was the first two lines. I felt so bad. I told her we'd start over and I wouldn't laugh. Didn't happen. I mean, the starting over did. The not laughing didn't.

I just don't know why I can't do it.
It's not like I'm necessarily on pitch all the time. It's not like I'm anywhere close to being a talented singer. I guess it's just something in my ear. Just something I can just... Hear. I can't explain it.

Whattheheckman.
I once had a piano teacher who told me I had perfect pitch. Although, I personally think he was overstepping. CLOSE to perfect pitch, maybe.
I wish I had perfect pitch. That would be awesome. But I'd probably laugh at off-pitch people even more. THAT wouldn't be so awesome.

Most Commonly Asked Question:

"Are you single?"

My gosh. What is wrong with this world -_-

I love you

I think I'm gunna accept that fact that you love me and genuinely care about me.

There's those people who tell you that they "love you and will always be there".

Then there's the ones who follow through.

I've had people say that to me
then walk out of my life.
I need to start accepting the fact that the people who are still here for me
genuinely DO care about me
and love me just like I love them.
I greatly appreciate all my friends,
and I hope they all know that when I say "I love you",
I mean it. 

I don't toss those words around.

So thank you for loving me.
And always being here for me when I need you.
I love you.

Random thought #16

Looking though my tagged photos on Facebook.
Remembering how amazing my life has been.
What happened?

Simply not feelin' it anymore.

Confession of a teenage girl #3

I feel most alone in a room full of people.

Butterflies

WTF.
Where did these come from?
Just laying next to you
and holding you hand
and feeling your fingers stroke along my fingers.
My heart kept doing a combination of stopping and pounding. 
I still smell you on my breath.
Morning breath.
The one things I'm paranoid about.
It would be.
Your hair is soft.
Your intentions are innocent and sweet.

I love you.

As a brother.
A brother who gives me butterflies.
That's awkward.
But still.
Just a brother.

Homework.. to infinity.. and beyond!

"Pshh. My homework is easy. I'll do it later."
*Hours later*
"Crap. Now I'm tired and haven't done my homework..
I'll do it tomorrow when I wake up."
*Sleeps in*
"AHHH I only have 10 minutes to get ready! I'll do my homework during break."
*Goes to locker during break*
"The bell already rang?! Now I have no time! I'll do it at lunch."
*Socializes with friends and forgets about homework while eating lunch*
"MAN! I forgot to do my homework! I'll do it when I get home."
*REPEAT x ∞*

Awkward Shoes

That awkward moment when you zone out looking at the floor,
see a pair of shoes someone is wearing,
think, "Hey, I have those shoes!"
then look up to find out who is wearing the shoes,
and realize that they're your shoes...
on your feet...
awkward.

Confession of a teenage girl #2: Infatuation at first sight?

I was in "infatuation with you" when I first laid eyes on you.
Found your facebook. (Yes, in the most creepy "I-just-met-you-im-gunna-fb-stalk-you" way.)
Found out some pretty disappointing things about you...
My "infatuation at first sight" has diminished.
That's why I don't believe in "love at first sight".
I can't even believe in infatuation at first sight,
so that love stuff could never be true.
Dang.
You were really cute.

I guess I can always wait till the next time I see you, though.
What I said was kinda just judging a book by it's cover.
Who knows.
You were really sweet to me when we met,
so maybe you're not half bad (:

Even Angels Fall ♥

Wow. Found this song on a clip from A Walk to Remember.
Now, not only do I want to watch A Walk to Remember,
but I also want to listen to more Jessica Riddle Songs.

Even Angels Fall - Jessica Riddle
You've found hope
You've found faith,
Found how fast she could take it away.
Found true love,
Lost your heart.
Now you don't know who you are.

She made it easy,
Made it free,
Made you hurt til you couldn't see.
Sometimes it stops,
Sometimes it flows,
But baby that is how love goes.

You will fly and you will crawl;
God knows even angels fall.
No such thing as you lost it all.
God knows even angels fall.

It's a secret no one tells;
One day it's heaven, one day it's hell.
It's no fairy tale;
Take it from me,
That's the way it's supposed to be.

You will fly and you will crawl;
God knows even angels fall.
No such thing as you lost it all.
God knows even angels fall.
 
You laugh, you cry, no one knows why
Behold the thrill of it all...
You're on the ride
You might as well
Open your eyes

You will fly and you will crawl;
God knows even angels fall.
No such thing as you lost it all.
God knows even angels fall.
Even angels fall
Even angels fall

Dyslexic

I was solving a math problem.
I was trying to think of "PEMDAS"
and I started saying
"ROY G BIV"

I was naming colors.
I was trying to think of "Red, Orange, Yellow, Green..."
and I started saying "A, B, C, D..."


I was using the alphabet.
I was trying to think of "A, B, C, D..."
and I started saying
"January, February, March, April..."

I was looking at the months.
I was trying to think of "January, February, March, April..."
and I started saying "Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall"

Confession of a teenage girl #1

Must. Stop. Reading. Old. Letters. )':
God I'm SO stupid.
What have I done?
I can't stop these tears.

*later*

WHAT am I DOING??
Dead and gone.

I'm building my bridge.
Now I just need to walk across..
and get over it. 
Thank you, Glee.
And Fleetwood Mac, of course.

"Go Your Own Way" - Fleetwood Mac

Lovin you...THIS IS the right thing to do
How can I ever change things ...That I feel

If I could ... Maybe I'd give you my world
How can I ... When you won't take it from me
 

You can go your own way 

Go your own way
You can call it ... 

Another lonely day
You can go your own way 

Go your own way

Tell me why ... Everything turned around
Packing up ... Shackin ups all you wanna do

If I could ... Baby I'd give you my world
Open up ... Everything's waiting for you


You can go your own way
You can call it another lonely day
You can go your own way

Sometimes - Noah and the Whale

Sometimes you gotta say good bye
Sometimes you gotta click your heels and fly
Oh, Sometimes you got to know that it's best to let go
Oh, Sometimes you gotta click your heels and fly

It sure was hard to say goodbye to you,
but it sure was the right thing to do

Oh a weight is off my chest
I can lay my thoughts to rest
But it sure was hard to say goodbye to you

Oh it sure was hard to say goodbye to you,
Oh it sure was hard to say goodbye to you.

Confidence

... is SEXY.

I can be almost completely unattractive to your looks,
but so long as you're confident,
you've got 100 bonus points in my eyes.

Remember that.
Confidence is sexy.
Be confident with who you are;
others will see that
and love you for it.
