when I worked at camp this past summer, I probably felt the prettiest I have ever felt.
even though the guy I liked didn’t like me back. even though I was sweaty and gross almost constantly.
when you work with young girls, they tell you that you’re pretty a lot. you know how when you love someone as person they are so much prettier to you? I think that’s why they said that so...
I don’t know anything. I don’t know anything. I don’t know anything.
I don’t like it when people say things like, “Maybe someday you’ll realize that i was really the cool kid and all the rest of you losers sucked.” I’m a big fan of people realizing their own worth, but not if they have to bash others to do it. even if they aren’t thinking of...

I need a new heart.
last night my friend and I were talking while studying for finals, and she said that in her psychology class they had talked about cults, and that her teacher had asked if anyone thought that the church was a cult/like a cult and only she thought so. she asked what I thought.
I agreed with her. I’ve read The Irresistible Revolution, in which Shane Claiborne says that the root of the word...

CRISIS AVERTED
my printer is not broken!
I just forgot to turn it on.
…
I’m not an idiot, I promise.
you can tell it’s been a pretty bad day when the fact that your printer won’t work so you can’t print out a coloring sheet almost makes you cry.
I just really want to color right now.
umbrellas by sleeping at last has gone to be one of my favorite songs of all time. and I very rarely, if ever, say that anything is my all-time favorite.
I just feel so terribly lonely....

I used...
