• Someday, the sky will light up for me.
  • last time i've checked i didn't have fangs
  • We are humans. We all have moments that we want to immortalize, to relive, and to remember—just like the one I’m living tonight. When memory fails, at least you would have admissible proof that certain memories did happen somewhere in time. Some words could sting, some could scratch open old wounds, and some could make you laugh your head off. The good thing about reading old journals is that they would tell you how much you’ve changed.
  • “They chronicle their lives and immortalize moments through words. It’s kind of narcissism too.”
  • And just when my boat was sailing safely on still waters, Matt rocked my boat again.
  • No sugar-coating of words; just bare facts; no bullshit.
  • Sometimes, someone can mean so much to you that even the truth can’t change your mind.
  • Because, if you really think about it, people who claim that they are not afraid to die are only after the pity-party, the smothering of attention, and the ego-tripping. If people are really unafraid of death, they don’t have to announce it.
  • “What’s the point in loving someone if they don’t know about it?” Of course there’s no point! It’s like waiting for a bus at the taxi bay—stupid and senseless.
  • So that when I’m all wrinkles and fine lines which no anti-aging product can erase, I can tell my grandkids the crazy things I did for love. Who the hell wants to listen to Cinderella fifty years from now, anyway?
  • If failure comes, it’s not a bottomless pit. Your feet will always touch the ground, no matter how deep it is.
  • “If pain must come, may it come quickly, because I have a life to live and I need to live it in the best way possible. If he has to make a choice, may he make it now. Then I will either wait for him or forget him. Waiting is painful. Forgetting is painful. But not knowing which to do is the worst kind of suffering.”
  • Have you ever traveled a road once and remembered it forever? Or spent a few hours with someone yet the scents and sounds were forever seared into your memory? I experienced that once. I continuously relive the feelings from that experience
  • "What a tangled web I weave," I thought. "You win. I give up."
  • “Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love.”-neil gaiman
  • Maybe we will meet again someday...on a day when the sky will finally light up with fireworks just for me. And yes, I will fall madly in love again...with someone real.
  • But instead of having butterflies in my stomach, I had electricity. The supposed butterflies died of electrocution—it felt weird.
  • “Sam, have I ever told you why I took Journalism?” I asked.“Because you like to write?”“No, because I’ve always been bad with numbers,” I answered. “I hate Mathematics and I never understood fractions, algebra, trigonometry, and all that dizzying stuff.”“Okay, so what’s that got to do with this?”I sighed.“When I fall in love, it’s either I give my whole heart or I don’t give it at all,” I answered. “Because I can’t love in fractions.”
  • Franco: “Love comes from three places—head, heart, and hormones. 3Hs. So that’s why love also makes people happy and horny. It tells us why people get hurt and why people hope. It can make us experience heaven and endure hell, and it can bring us home.”
