silence ears filling
But as i lay there, it only seemes like silence filling my ears. And the thing was, it was so freaking loud.
writing school emotional
I was actually pretty miserable in high school. I couldn't wait for it to be over. And when it finally was, I remember sitting at graduation with all these classmates getting nostalgic and emotional already and all I could think was, "Get me out of here. I never want to see you people again." So it's ironic that I spend half my day putting myself back there by choice [while writing].
silence balance want
and I wondered if, in the end, this is how all disputes are settled, with a shared silence as things become equal. You take something from me, I take something from you. We all want balance, one way or another.
coffee mean tables
Just because something's damaged doesn't mean it shouldn't be treated with respect.' 'Ad,' Wallace said, 'it's a coffee table, not an orphan.
moon sky knowing
As impossible, in fact, as keeping the moon...So I looked down the line at all my friends, knowing I would always remember this. And then I turned my gaze back up to the sky, and put my faith in that moon and its return.

It's hard to be nice when the rest of the world is so mean.
growing-up lying mean
Growing up means :propelling yourself forward into whatever lies ahead, one turn of the wheel at a time.
degrees december
Its 75 Degrees! In December!
opposites waiting wish
Maybe my sister and I shared more than we thought. We were both waiting and wishing for something we couldn't completely control: I wanted to be alone, and she the total opposite. It was weird, really, to have something so contrary in common. But at least it was something.
harder prove
You don't have to make things harder then they have to be just to prove a point.
littles way yards
It was hard to remember what the yard had looked like even twelve hours before, undisturbed and pristine. Like it takes so little to change something, but to make you forget the way it once was, as well.
mistake forever matter
The mistakes you make now count. Not for everything, and not forever. But they do matter, and they shape you.
