Until we meet again.

...

why do bad things happen to good people?

why are beautiful children born with horrific diseases?

only the good die young.

thinking of my favourite during these tough times.

i love you.

to my family

I am so lucky to be surrounded by such beautiful, lovely, kind, respectful and talented people.

I love that so many of them are actively pursuing their dreams and succeeding!

I seriously feel like a proud parent; whether they got into the course they aimed for (whether it be biomed or drama), whether they've moved to Perth to do what they love, are in a kick ass band, just got cast in a soapie, are trying something completely new or exciting... like cheerleading or working full time, or they are simply trying their very best in school.

I'm proud.

These people that surround me are my day to day inspiration and I really hope they all know just how much I look up to them.

Seriously guys,

I love you all.

we're on the same page

the three musketeers were on the same page, they understood each other, they were there for each other, they trusted each other.

So do we.

"I challenge you all to conquer anything that comes your way. Like myself, be motivated by the prospect of doing better, only then can you hope to achieve your fullest potential. It's all about hard work, willpower, determination and the support and encouragement of those around you. Strive to be the best that you can be and never underestimate yourself. And, of course, just don't forget to have a little fun along the way."

these are the words of my incredible best friend.

wow, you truly are something else fav.

I love you xxox

hmm

your eyes.

they're on my mind.

my pessimistic father.

"if I died and came back to you and told you there was life after death would you gain faith and become religious?"

"I don't know... I guess?"

"Of course you would, I know if dad came back and told me there was something to look forward too, I'd believe in God in a second... but he isn't coming back, so I don't."

"tis not her glass, but you, that flatters her;

and out of you she sees herself more proper

Than any of her lineaments can show her."

ohh Billy Shakespeare you've hit the jackpot once again.

what an insightful man.

"and I don't want the world to see me,

coz I don't think that they'd understand,

when every thing's made to be broken,

I just want you to know who I am..."

will you be my valentine?

if someone wants to give me flowers I want them to do it because they genuinely WANT to give me flowers... not because they feel obligated to due to a stupid holiday.

Dear Valentines Day,

I think you are a crock of shit,

love Rachel.
