fifty-one to a hundred / 1:20 AM

51. I've come to realize that you can't get what you want usually. You can't just sit there waiting to be noticed. You can't sit there expecting someone to love you, because the person who feels the same way just may be waiting and sitting like you are. You need to find each other.

52. Come on, you'll have me this time. And baby, I've been waiting for so long. Make me yours, I'm dying to hear you say those three words.

53. We all want to fall in love. Why? Because that experience makes us feel completely alive. Where every sense is heightened, every emotion is magnified, our everyday reality is shattered, & we are flying into the heavens. It may only last a moment, an hour, an afternoon. But that doesn't diminish it's value. Because we are left with memories that we treasure for the rest of our lives. x3

54. Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is a battle, love is a war, love is growing up.

55. And every time you're around I bite my tongue because blood in my mouth is better than tears on the ground.

56. Love is something you can't describe, like the look of a rose, the smell of rain, or the feeling of forever.

57. If i had a snowflake for every time i thought about you, we would never have school. x3

58. I believe in love and in arguing, in jamming out by yourself in the car. I believe in having someone tell you that you’re beautiful, dancing in the rain and miracles. I believe in smiling until your cheeks hurt and laughing until you pee. Lastly, I believe in second chances even if you’re completely screwed up.

59. 50% of what people say when they are joking, is true.

60. My new favorite song, is the beating of your heart.

61. A promise is a promise, at least that's whatthey say. Welcome to reality, they're broken everyday.

62. Suddenly, I knew what I had to do. Love isn't about little words. Love is about grand gestures. Love is about airplanes, pulling banners over stadiums, proposals on jumbo-trons, giant words in sky writing. Love is about going that extra mile, even if it hurts, letting it all hang out there. Love is about finding courage inside of you that you didn't even know was there.

63. He is my self-inflicted pain. A preposterous diversion. A momentary bliss. My blameworthy experience. My poisonous religion. He is my annoyance, and yet he remains to be my only happiness.

64. Don't say you love me, unless forever. Don't tell me you need me if you're not gonna stay. Don't give me this feeling, I'll only believe it. Make it real or take it all away.

65. He kissed me. He really put his arms around me & kissed me. It went through my body like he had flipped some electrical switch and lit me up. His skin was so warm, and he was suddenly so beautiful & I thought, oh this is what all the hype is about.

66. The stolen glance is the oldest trick we know yet definitely the most obvious sign of hidden admiration.

67. I don’t know if I’m getting over him or I’m just getting used to the pain.

68. You make tomorrow worth the wait and yesterday worth remembering.

69. Only the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, actually do.

70. I just want a sign to show me that you give a shit.

71. Sometimes, broken love is like this: “I will still be thinking of you just the same way. I will still be feeling those butterflies in my stomach whenever you are around. I will still look at you with such wonder of how someone so near to perfection came my way. I will still care for you just the same way. I will still pray for you every night before I sleep. But the only difference is you will never ever know.”

72. Cracks in the concrete are just constant reminders that, even the strongest break down.

73. Love is an undescribable feeling that will give you the biggest high of your life. Love is profound. It's real. Love is undying. Just wanting to be the best for someone no matter what. Love is being willing to do anything for your special someone. Your heart beats fast & slow together. Love is the need for somone, the feeling you can't live without them. Something you can't help or control. Love can either complete your life & make it perfect, or tear your life apart. You can't explain love, you just know. It's the one thing everyone wants, but still is teribbly scared to fall into.

74. Life is like a rollercoaster, too many unexpected turns. But by the end, you want to ride it again.

75. Everyone wants to be happy, nobody wants to be in pain. But you can't make a rainbow, Without any rain.

76. G: Will you love me forever?
B: Of course not.
G: Oh. Okay...
B: i'll love you even longer than that.

77. I sometimes pretend to be happy, talking a lot and laughing out loud so that nobody would know what’s really inside. But at the end of the day, I always find myself all alone, encountering the crucial truth that I’m too broken inside that not even a million laughter can take it away.

78. I hate you for ignoring my existence, for not loving me the way I wish you would but most of all I hate you for making me say I HATE YOU when in reality, I’m just loving you more.

79. The best feeling in the world is doing something that everyone else said you couldn't.

80. And I hope when you look into her eyes, all you see is my reflection. It's like falling asleep to a nightmare and waking up with a fairytale.

81. G: Okay, I have a question for you.
B: Alright, ask me.
[[short pause]]
G: What do you see when you look in my eyes?
B: You honestly wanna know?
G: Yeah.
B: My future. x3

82. Life is like an ocean. It can be calm and still; rough and rigid. But in the end, it's always beautiful. x3

83. "It is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation." - Herman Melville

84. People seldom say I love you. And when they do it’s either too late or the love is gone. But when I say I love you, it doesn’t mean you have to stay but I wish you’ll never go away.

85. I know nothing lasts forever, and maybe we won’t always stay together. But every smile and laugh we shared convinces me that the memories of you and me will last for the rest of my life, beyond forever.

86. Her shoes are killing her. She lost her lipgloss. Her hair went flat and nothing in her closet looked right. But being in his arms and hearing him whisper, "You look beautiful," makes it all worthwhile.

87. It's hard to wait around for something that you know probably won't ever happen again but it's even harder to give up when you know it's everything you want. x3

88. What if the guy you secretly love tells you that he has already found that special someone, that he wants to spend forever with. Would you be brave enough to ask him who it was? Or bear the pain inside, not knowing that it was you after all?

89. Fairy tales usually starts with once upon a time and end with and they lived happily ever after. But for us, it is “They lived happily ever after once upon a time.”

90. You start out life with a clean slate then you begin to make your mark. You face decisions, make choices. You keep moving forward but eventually there comes a time where you look back over where you've been & wonder who you really are.

91. LOVE. We think about it, dream about it, sing about it, lose sleep about it. And when we don't have it , we search for it. When we do have it, we're afraid of losing it. When we discover it, we don't know what to do with it. It's the short word that's easy to spell, difficult to define and impossible to live without.

92. All i want is a message, all i need is a sign. Baby, just give me a signal that you're gonna be mine.

93. "Slow it down, make it stop or else my heart is going to pop." (Lenka's The Show)

94. When I was a kid, I fell from a tree but I managed to hold on to a branch. I was up there for a long time and waited. The silence, the pain in my arms, the blood pumping in my ears. Then I fell. I could not remember what happened when I hit the ground. All I can remember was the agony of holding on and the wonderful feeling of letting go.

95. When the person you like walks by you in the hallway & smiles, your day is better knowing that at least for ten seconds of his day he thought of you.

96. There are just some heartaches in this world that I choose to endure. Once my heart has decided, I live to love that person without question, guilt and hesitation. Yes, even if every moment with him is bittersweet, he will remain my sweetest downfall.

97. It's not until your fully broken that you realize what you're made of.

98. Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than the fear. [[The Princess Diaries]]

99. The longer it takes you to realize you can't go back to the past, when things were the way they were, the longer it takes you to move on.

100. What does one do when they lose the one thing they think is worth fighting for? They spend their time waiting for a second chance.
