Mistakes.

Some mistakes… Just have greater consequences than others. But you don’t have to let the result of one mistake be the thing that defines you. You, Clark, have the choice not to let that happen.

Fearless.

The young are right to be fearless, she reminded herself. Remember yourself at that age.

Questions.

“Captain,” she said, “the only people who still have all the answers are those who have never been faced with the questions.”

Rocks.

Because even if the whole world was throwing rocks at you, if you still had your mother or father at your back, you’d be okay. Some deep-rooted part of you would know you were loved. That you deserved to be loved.

CURRENTLY:

All, I FINISHED MY MASTERS DEGREE THIS WEEK! I turned in all of my finals, and now I’m awaiting my final grades!! I’m still in slight denial, but most of all I am so relieved to actually be DONE. Naturally, I put an obnoxious number of books on hold at my library, and I checked out more than my share because I have absolutely nothing else to be doing now. Read, read, READ. Could not be more thrilled!

I also booked a flight to Paris, France in October, so I’m tackling all sorts of French related reading (fiction and non-fiction alike). Is this what being a grown up feels like? Being able to read whatever I want? Whenever I want? Because I’ve been living four days of bliss, I gotta tell you: life without school is GLORIOUS.

So I’m currently catching up on all of my shows (I have finally made it to the final season of Frasier, and I’m not ready for it to end!), reading all the books (oh hello, TBR List), and eagerly awaiting my transition into a librarian position (keep your fingers crossed for me!). (Not to mention I’m in my final stages of moving, and that has been a MARATHON…where did all of these books come from? Why can’t they just teleport to my new place??)

Home.

You know, you spend your whole life feeling like you don’t quite fit in anywhere. And then you walk into a room one day, whether it’s at university or an office or some kind of club, and you just go, ‘Ah. There they are.’ And suddenly you feel at home.

Even When.

All I can say is that you make me… you make me into someone I couldn’t even imagine. You make me happy, even when you’re awful. I would rather be with you – even the you that you seem to think is diminished – than with anyone else in the world.

~Me Before You by: Jojo Moyes

No Regrets.

I will never, ever regret the things I’ve done. Because most days, all you have are places in your memory that you can go to.

Fitting.

This is the story of a family who didn’t fit in. A little girl who was a bit geeky and liked maths more than makeup. And a boy who liked makeup and didn’t fit into any tribes.

Real Friends.

Real friends were the kind where you pick up where you’d left off, whether it be a week since you’d seen each other or two years.
