Notes from the broken hearted-- Her by Amber Khan

We were young and naive; we were kids, you and me. From young high-schoolers chasing our highly imaginable dreams, to two college kids, looking for a place to be. In this time between, you drifted far away from me. I couldn't get you back, even if I tried to plea.

I didn’t want to lose what could still be.

After months of grueling in agony,

It was then I decided to give up on you, on me.

I couldn't think about anything else for days, I went through quite the craze-- I tried to get my mind away from it all, just for it to crash and burn as I'd fall. I've fallen so many times; I believe nothing right can happen in this lifetime.

Dating wasn’t the same; to me it was all just a simple game. I firmly believed nothing could go right, when the universe could give anything nothing but plight.

For a few years, none of the relationships I had afterwards were ever right.

Then there you were, lively as can be, talking away to a few people not far from me. I approached you nervously, suddenly self conscious of what you'd think of me.

You looked my way and smiled. From the gleam in your eyes, I knew I'd be here a while.

I knew, once I looked at you.... I'd do anything to keep you.

My icy heart finally received a breath of spring.



Notes from the broken hearted --His by Bryan Creevy

We spent the night at your favorite bar.

I never thought we'd get this far.

But a thousand nights where I'm always wrong

I always knew we'd end and you'd be gone.

Loneliness is my true nature.

I was lucky enough just to date her.

Her love was a lie like all she's spoken I'm not worthy; I'm just too broken.

Taylor Swift and Linkin Park are how I cope.

Quiet places to retreat to while chasing hope.

Being unloved is destiny, I know this is true.

So why did my heart skip when I saw you?

The pieces of me no longer feel shattered.

My mind seems so clear when once it was scattered.

Maybe we can create our own perfect space.

You've already created a smile on my frowning face.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.
