"Growing up sucks. Not all kisses are magic, and most boys do not live up to your expectations, but there are those times when everything, I mean love, romance, relationships, it all falls together perfectly and it's incredible. It's those moments, no matter how depressingly few and far between, that make growing up worth it." ~ Dawson's Creek

"You know I used to spend every day thinking about you and dreaming about you, and every time you walked by I lost myself, do you know what that feels like?

"I still love you and I probably will love you for a very long time. But I can't just be your buddy, because as much as I enjoy the concept of being 'just friends' in reality it's a bizarre form of torture and I'm just not willing to participate in it.

"If we are truly meant to be, then we will find our way back to each other." ~ Dawson's Creek

"I'm scared that I'm going to end up alone. I'm scared that I'm always going to be somebody's friend, or sister, or confidant, never quite somebody's everything. Mostly I'm scared I'm never going to find a guy that I love as much as I love you." ~ Dawson's Creek

"Sometimes the hardest things to say are the things that really matter." ~ Dawson's Creek

"I used to be afraid of so many things, that I'd never grow up, that I'd be trapped in the same place for all eternity, that my dreams would forever be shy of my reach, it's true what they say, time plays tricks on you. One day you're dreaming, the nest your dream has become your reality and now that the scared little girl no longer follows me wherever I go, I miss her. I do. Because there are things that I want to tell her, to relax, to lighten up, that it is all going to be okay. I want her to know that meeting people who like you, who understand you, who actually accept you for who you are will become an increasingly rare occurrence." ~ Dawson's Creek

"And then there's love. I want you to love to the tips of your fingers and when you find that love, wherever you find it, whoever you choose, don't run away from it.

It can force decent men to commit the darkest deeds or compel ordinary women to search for hidden truths. And long after we're gone, love remains burned into our memories. We all search for love, but some of us, after we found it, wish we hadn't." ~ Desperate Housewives

"What you think of yourself is much more important than what others think of you." ~ Seneca

At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life." ~ Alfred D. Souza

Quotes Vol. 17

"It means you have a choice. You have a choice to make. And I don't want to rush you into making the decision before you're ready. This morning I was going to come over...I was going to say...What I wanted to say was...But now all I can say is that...I'm in love with you. I've been in love with you forever. I'm a little late, I know I'm a little lat in telling you that. I, I just, I just want you to take your time, you know. Take all the time you need, because you have a choice to make. And when I had a choice to make, I chose wrong." ~ Grey's Anatomy

So this thing where we all keep our distance and pretend not to care about each other, it's usually a load of bull. So we pick and choose who we want to remain close to, and once we've chosen those people, we tend to stick close by. No matter how much we hurt them. The people that are still with you at the end of the day, those are the ones worth keeping. And sure, sometimes close can be too close. But sometimes, that invasion of personal space, it can be exactly what you need." ~ Grey's Anatomy

"Sometimes we'll be in the same place at exactly the same time. And...I can almost hear her voice. It's like I'm touching her. I like to believe she knows I'm there. That's all you get. That's it. Moments with the people you love. And they'll move on, and you'll want them to move on. But still, that's all you get...moments." ~ Grey's Anatomy

"She's tough. She tries to hide it. She's difficult. But if you make an effort, she's worth it. She's worth the effort." ~ Grey's Anatomy

"I probably won't be really fine until I don't care if he's fine anymore." ~ Grey's Anatomy

"Too often, the thing you want the most is the one thing you can't have. Desire leaves us heartbroken, it wears us out. Desire can wreck your life. But as tough as wanting something can be, the people who suffer the most, are those who don't know what they want." ~ Grey's Anatomy

Chili and strawberry coffee cake

Here's the beginning of me posting about trying some new recipes. My mom gave me the recipe to her chili so here it is...


It's still missing something, I'm not sure what...it was slightly tasteless. Mom's was better, although we usually used it for chili dogs at her house...so I dunno. I need to add something else to it next time...not sure what. I still have some in the freezer...and I'm not quite sure how to reheat frozen chili...hmmm.....
That day I also made strawberry coffee cake, which I took to work to test out how good it actually is. It was a little too tart for me, and I don't like cream cheese which most of the filling is made of so...I won't be making it again. Everyone at work liked it though, but they will eat anything so who knows. I took a picture of a side view of a slice, but it was blurry so this is all you get.

Puzzle Pt. 1

First puzzle I'm doing is 1,000 pieces...had to clear off the kitchen table to have enough room. It is also backwards from the picture on the box, so what's left is right, and right is left. It's got a lot of sky pieces that are all blendy blue and purple. Here's the beginning of it, I need to finish it and figure out how to glue it together before February 25th, so Ryan and Tyler can have somewhere to eat.







More pics soon...I'm slightly past this point now, trying to get the waterfall together.
