Stand up for all your dreams, and reach for all your goals, push love outta the way, cuz it'll take control. Put yourself in charge, have good self-esteem, and you will reach all your best dreams * I put on makeup today hoping you'll noticee me , but at the end i realize everyday i spend getting ready is jus another day wasted of make up . cus i no that you'll never notice me the way I notice you. When you first meet people all you notice are the differences between you & them, but as time passes you start noticing the similarities. I guess that's how all friendships begin. iF oNe DaY yOu FeEl LiKE crYiNg.. CaLl mE.

And the What are we doing tonights? . . . somewhere b e t w e e n all of the changing and growing And the skipping classes, the studying for tests, And the pretending to be studying for tests, And the downright not studying for tests, I forgot . . . I forgot what it meant to cry . . . I forgot that pretending to be happy doesnt make you happy . . . I f o r g o t that pretending to be smart doesnt make you smart . . . And that pretending to be ok doesnt make you ok . . . I forgot that you cant just forget the past in fear of the future . . . I forgot that you cant control falling in love . . . And that you cant make yourself fall in love . . . I learned . . . I learned that I can love . . . I learned that its ok to mess up . . . And its ok to ask for help . . . And its ok to feel like crap . . . I learned its ok to complain and whine to all your friends for a whole day . . . That somehow they'll make it all better . . . I learned that sometimes the things you want most you just cant have . . . I learned that the greatest thing about high school isn't going to be who is the most popular or going to be the parties . . . Or the drinking not even the hook-ups . . . Its the friendships, which means taking chances . . . I learned that sometimes the things we forgive and forget are the things which we most need to TALK out . . . I learned that letters from friends are the most important thing . . . And that sending cards to your friends makes you feel better . . . But, basically, I just learned that my friends, Both old and new, Are the most important people to me in the world . not stupid. i just lack common sense. im not a poser. i just like all kinds of clothes. im not miss popularity. i just have a lot of friends. i dont like my boyfriend . i love him. i dont ignore you. i just dont give a shit. im not a bitch. im just honest. im not mean. your just weak. im not insecure. i just dont trust people. Dont call yourself my bestfriend. its my opinion who my bestfriend is, and im pretty sure bestfriends dont betray eachother so therefor your not my bestfriend, your not even a good friend. Dont think about what made you [[c r y yesterday]], think about what made you {{smile today}}, and what will >>brighten your day tomorrow<<. remember when ... boys had cooties, when friends always listened to you, when dreams were unshattered and worries were few. when recess was too short and life was too long. when decisions came easily with no need to belong. when storks delivered babies and passions werent so strong when friendships werent broken, right was right and wrong was wrong. when bad things didnt happen, only skinned knees brought tears and the night light quieted all our fears. when decisions were solved by "eni,meanie,mini,mo." when boys werent so YuCkY! and goodbye only meant till tomorrow. when your clothes didnt need to match and real friends didnt part. and the fun went on forever..without a broken heart. ---------------------------------
