Don't let me go

Dear friend,
I know you want someone to confide in and you think I'm that person but I'm not. You say I'm a terrible listener and perhaps you're right: perhaps I am all those things (i.e. selfish, rude, whiny) and if I bother you so much wy try? I can't always keep running back to you at your beck and call and you're right: I can't walk on eggshells either. If you feel left out I can't always include you. If you feel left out DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT YOURSELF! Come on. We're friends, yes. But am I absolutely devoted to you? No. I have a life. If you feel like you don't get one. But I can't live vicariously through you. And I also can't give up mine to make you feel like you have one. so please-- we don't have to be best friends, i don't even really want that. I just want to be on good terms. Find someone else to spout youru problems too. That person is not me.

WHY TEH FUCK DO I PUT UP WTIH IT? who knows?

Exhaustion: legit disease or just an excuse?

LINDSAY LOHAN- SUFFERING FROM EXHAUSTION. MISCHA BARTON HOSPITALIZED: FOR EXHAUSTION. Another young starlet, another hospital visit, and it all amounts to what they claim to be: "exhaustion."
All of us have at one point said the words and we've definitely felt it, probably more times then one. "I'm exhausted." You say it all the time, but does it really count as an illness? Does it warrant seeking medical care? And can doctors treat it? Now your questions have been answered.

Although most of us are exhausted simply because of our hectic work schedules, endless social calendar, or even our stressful responsibilities towards family members, SOME PEOPLE actually suffer from a disease whose first symptom is exhaustion. It is not wrong to seek a doctor when you are feeling overly exhausted after even just mild activity. But what if you're burning the candle at both ends and YOU KNOW IT and still ask the doctor if there's anything wrong?

It's fine. Sometimes exhaustion is a sign that you need rest. Exhaustion may just be simple exhaustion AT FIRST but not acting on it can lead to something much worse: a breakdown of sorts. So, just as a dry throat may not be bad at first but can lead to strep, exhaustion can lead to a myriad of other things. Perhaps not a legit disease, but definitely more than an excuse.

lo siento

although there are a couple of people i really should be saying that to right now, for some reason im focusing on my blog. its easy to say "sorry" to a collective group of people (who don't actually exist, because, in all honesty, i bet no one besides ME and some of my friends read my blog) than a specific person. ANYHOW, im hungry. BUT THE MAIN POINT OF THIS IS: (im having trouble getting tot he point in a lot of my posts) sorry for putting up all those quiz blogthings stuff. but it was fun for me ;)

Quiz Galore!


^That should work, leading you to a Gossip Girl quiz where you will discover what character you are: I'm Serena van der Woodsen. But the ones from the-n are so much better. The site just hates me right now :(




You Make a Great First Impression



You can handle almost any social situation with grace, even the tricky ones.

Strangers often find you charming and interesting. You are often remembered fondly.

Even if you're not naturally outgoing, you can make conversation with anyone if you need to.



Whether you were born this way or had to work to get here, you are definitely charismatic.

You're popular and well liked. People definitely look forward to being around you.

Your social connections bring you a full and rich life. You understand how important it is to make a lasting impression.


^and this is my blogthings quiz. im working on it



You Are Sunny and Inspiring



When You Are Comfortable:



You are quite quirky, and you enjoy doing things your own way. You are optimistic, and you've always got a good idea brewing.

People find you to be positive and uplifting. You make people feel good about themselves.

Back in the 80s, you would be a typical cute girl next door.

You go for a guy who's sensitive, sweet, and sexy without knowing it.

You prefer to be with a guy who focuses his attention on you... not showing off!






Your Inner Pop Princess Is Shakira



"Baby I would climb the Andes solely

To count the freckles on your body

Never could imagine there were only

Too many ways to love somebody"



You're more a poet than a pop star.

indecisive much

indecisive

adjective
1. characterized by lack of decision and firmness; "an indecisive manager brought the enterprise to a standstill" [ant: decisive]
2. not definitely settling something; "a long and indecisive war" [ant: decisive]
3. not clearly defined; "indecisive boundaries running through mountains"

this aforementioned indecisiveness is a quality i possess in spades. one i am most certainly not proud of, i assure you. but, alas, it is a part of my blood just as my father and mother are. well enough of the 20th century speak- that's for YE OLDE FOLKE out there. (not saying that i was born in the 21st century- that would leave me between the ages of 9 and 1) yummy!

----> the main point of this is to say that i am one to back out on a decision. i feel huge regret at decisions i've made that seem even the least bit wrong- but i'm trying to tell myself: YOU CAN'T PLEASE EVERYONE. something you do is not gonna make everyone happy. i'm so glad i'm not obama. i'd die. i hate doing things that hurt someone- not in the sense that i can't be mean, i most certainly can and i can enjoy it too. (alas, i am not malicious. but i do love the word alas. AND MALICIOUS. <3) my problem is that i always end up feeling bad for whoever is harmed by my decision. and i hate making people mad. but i tend to say things before i think about them. oh well. :(

anywho, THE OFFICIAL POINT TO MY POINTLESS POST IS: sorry to the both of you! you know who you are! i didn't mean to hurt either of you. alrighty then.
goodnighty then.
xoxo E

Oh me oh my it's monday!

The beach. Palm trees. A nice ocean breeze. In most it elicits squeals of joy, especially when accompanied by friends and family. For me? Not so much.Somehow the beach is a topic of stress that rolls around every year- a constant nagging voice saying "that girl has flatter abs than you" or "look at her legs, so toned" which of course is followed by an accusatory look down at my own and a remark saying "better hit the gym." worst of all: the boy factor- if a group of guys walks by you wanna look your hottest, you don't wanna accidedntally flash them everything from behind because your too-loose bikini bottoms fell down. (hey, you just recently went on a diet! it's not your fault! and, by the way, not from personal experience do i know this. not at all.) *sheepish grin*

But this year I have deemed the beach UNSTRESSFUL. okay, that's a lie. I haven't deemed it unstressful, not one bit. but I have decided that I won't be afraid to get out there and SWIM. For the love of swimming, come on! The main point of this story is to have fun. That's what beaches are there for...I know how cliche this sounds but I really gotta speed it up so here goes: Wear sunglasses, don't worry about your hair, and pal around with ur buds, chances are you'll meet a guy by asking him to play a game of beach volleyball or talking to him at the ice cream stand. But you won't meet one in your swim cover up sitting self consciously on a towel away from the world with your iPod in and shoving a book by your face. trust me on that one. so have fun! even fi you don't meet anyone you still got something from it. and i don't mean a sunburn. *hardy har har har- LAUGH!*

xxx E
ps: the reason i had to speed up? CASTLE IS ON. THE SHOW I'VE BEEN WAITING MY WHOLE LIFE FOR. IT'S LIKE GREY'S ANATOMY'S CASUAL COWORKER FLIRTATIONS + LAW & ORDER: CI'S CRIME SCENES? WHAT MORE COULD YOU POSSIBLY ASK FOR? (OH, AND HE'S A WRITER. 'NUFF SAID.)
pps: good night ;-)

ohhhh life :(

remember how i was depressed last week? or the week before. i think it was the week before. yeah, the week before. well this week im more in the gotta-plan mood! before i was in the "sulk and hope something will happen" mood. but now not so much.

get ready for major planning, dilaters, because some recent news has got me interested in someone, perhaps the love of my life. who will be the love of my life. and i dont mind going after it (or him). so go for it! (i know-- you hate that phrase, oh well.) sorry my blog don't make much sense to y'all who are not in the know. (and sorry that sentence was so...ugh!)

my only question is this: what if 'GOING FOR IT' so to speak means RAINING ON SOMEONE ELSE'S PARADE? does doing something good for you (and not intentionally hurting someone's feelings) but hurting someone's feelings make it wrong? cuz there's something i need- something i want so bad - but i don't want to get it at someone else's expense you know. like an internship for example- its like winning that, you want it but you don't want to beat out people who ARE YOUR FRIENDS for it! life is hard that way. competition is hard that way. i was never one who liked competition, unless it was with ppl i hate. acrtally i <3 competition what am i saying?
toodaloo xxx E
ps: my expression for the day is: "im like a turtle." sometimes i feel like i go inside myself to search for who i am. im like a turtle going into my shell that way :D so if youre like a turtle, or just like turtles POST!


pps: anyone heard the song 20 dollar nose bleed by fall out boy ft. brendon urie? LOVE IT!


have you ever wanted to disappear and join a monastery? go out and preach young addicts straight. who will i be when i wkae up next to a stranger on a passenger plane? passenger plane. permanent jet lag please take me back please take me back ohoh im a stray dog sick plz let me in the mat keeps tripping singing vows before we exchagne smoke rings give me a pen call me mr. benzadrine but dont let the doctor in i wanna blow off steam and call me mr. benzadrine but dont let the doctor dont let the doctor in. its like 14 carats with no clarity. when i look at the man who would be king the man who would be king. goes to the desert the same war his dad rehearsed came back with flags on coffins and said we won, oh, we won.permanent jet lag please take me back please take me back OHoohooh im a stray dog sick plz let me in the mat keeps tripping singingn vows before we exchange smoke rings give me a pen call me mr. benzadrine but dont let the doctor in i wanna blow off steam and call me mr. benzadrine but dont let the doctor dont let the doctor in <3 give it a listen!
