Friends Forever

" Today was my school's graduation. My best friend and I were gray gowns, so we had the privilege of sitting with them; escorting them in and out of the ceremony. Sitting alongside my best friend hearing all these speeches about friendships and dreams made me realize that for six years, she has stuck with me through thick and thin. She tolerated my selfishness, laughed at my mistakes, smiled with me, and comforted me at my time of need. She is my motivation. She is the reason I am who I am today. A year from now, we will be sitting in the same seats that we sat today, getting our own diplomas. And honestly, I don't think there is anyone I would rather graduate with but her. I love you Vyvy, our long lasting friendship LMS. (: "

Pleasant Surprise

" I spent all night texting her till my eye hurt. We said how much we wish we could be laying next to each other, talking face to face and not through text. A few minutes later we drifted off into sleep, but not before we said goodnight! A couple hours had passed when I woke up to a text saying, 'Good morning my darling! I couldn't stop thinking about you last night. I'll see you soon, I promise! You'll get your wish!' I spent the rest of the day wondering what she meant. I tried to call, but she didn't answer. Maybe a text? No response yet again. I got confused, went for a walk and thought, 'Why wont she reply? Is it something I said?' I got back to my house and sat on the couch trying again and again, but nothing at all! Then there was a knock, I went to open it only to be greeted by a hug and a kiss. She said, 'Honey I'm here. Don't worry, don't stress. You have me now so lets make it the best!' As I stood there in happiness and shock, this moment LMS. (: "

Officially Summer

"I woke up this morning with the sun shining through my window. It was gorgeous, especially after a full night of sleep knowing that it's now officially summer. It probably was also the fact that I just met some pretty amazingly hilarious people that made my morning even better, knowing that there's something to look forward to this summer. The official start of summer LMS (: "

Happy Birthday !

" Today is my 17th birthday. I had two finals, and stinky driver's ed later on in the day. When I got home from school, my younger sister who usually just watches TV comes up to me and yells HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Although I wasn't that surprised, I was glad to see that she cared enough to yell it at me. She also made me a card with 'Som Meh Ho' on the cover, and gave me these milk lollipops with the milk part crossed out, and replaced with 'Thomack.' The fact that my sister gets my inside jokes LMS.

Love & Trust

"Today I have realized a trust. I have also realized a love. I have found a new bond between two significant people that has already changed my life in a matter of weeks. Her name is Clare. His name is Aaron. I met Clare not too long ago. When we first met, we didn’t really talk, but after when we did, we just clicked. After that day, we hung out for almost everyday and we would open up our feelings towards each other. I had barely known her, but I already loved her. She is someone that can make me happy and strong. She helped me when I didn’t know what to do. Aaron is my second brother. I met him before I met Clare. The first time I met him was when he came over to do a project with my real brother and he made some kind of delicious strawberry dessert. We didn’t actually get close until the last few months of the school year. But he is the kind of person that I can go to if everything else fails. He makes me feel happy and good about myself. He makes me feel safe. ♥ So basically, I am grateful to have friends like these two. I love them! Aaron & Clare LMS. (: ♥ "

The Cross

" My guy, my little 4 year old brother and I went out to eat for lunch. Although my little brother had a horrible attitude all day, right before he dove into his food, he did the sign of the cross, LM&HS (Me and him). (: "

Music 4 the Soul

"I woke up on a sunny morning, flipping through old records of music. Raphael Saadiq's "The Way I See It," Lauryn Hill's "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill," Erykah Badu's "Live," and Koffee Brown's "Mars/Venus." But as I put in an old D'Angelo's "Brown Sugar," I realized Soul Music is the best vaccine for a meloncholy state of mind. The sweetness of life's soul music LMS. (:"
