Painted purple and green

I'm painting my room finally :) It has been pink since before Hannah was born. So about 5 years. For me, that is too much pink. I've decided to go 2 walls purple and 2 walls green. And both colors are names of fruit. Haha. They are grapeolicious and key lime. Too bad it isn't paint you can taste. That would be pretty cool.

I'm really excited. Except its all happening really fast! I didn't pick my colors until yesterday, we ran out late last night and got the paints. Then today I'm taping everything with that famous blue tape. And by the end of tomorrow, I should be done painting. Its all crazy! And it had to go this way, by mid-July, I'm getting my new bed too. So painting had to be done before that came. All this week I've been cleaning out my room, majorly! I made a huge dent in the amount of stuff in my room. I went from 5 drawers of stuff to 1. I had a huge black garbage bag full of garbage and junk that I'm getting rid of. It's obvious that I really want this to happen, right? I finished my room in matter of 2 days. I went through my whole closet, the 5 drawers under my bed, and my dresser. My room was a mess. I just threw everything out of my closet and started over(: It was easier with my ipod though. Now I'm done, and I can't wait.

Oh and when we were waiting for the paint, we found this BIG apple made of wood. We're going to take my leftover green paint and paint it :) Then find a place to put it.

So baby you my only love; the only love I want is yours. Nobody is going to take me away from you, and I hope it's the same for you. :)

If the person you are talking to doesn't appear to be listening, be patient. It may simply be he has a small piece of fluff in his ear.

You can close your eyes to the things you do not want to see, but you cannot close your heart to the things you do not want to feel.

"In the book of life, the answers aren't in the back." - Charlie Brown

Dance as though no one is watching you. Love as though you have never been hurt. Sing as though no one can hear you. Live as though heaven is on earth.

I've finally found what life's really about. Hanging on when your hearts had enough, and giving more when you want to give up.

You're lucky you know, right? - Emma

Life is short, Break the Rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably, And never regret anything that once made you smile.

Elve's are all jacked up on maple syrup!

Laughter on one's lips is a sign that that person deep down has a pretty good grasp of life.

You don't stop laughing because you grow old. You grow old because you stop laughing - Michael Pritchard

Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It's the transformation that's troublesome - Isaac Asimov

Madness is like gravity, all it takes is a little... push - The Joker

In order to live, we must let go. Forget her hearts not beating. Her spirit IS here. - Emma.

Look beside you. Shes trying to hold your hand. - Emma.

"Right now, you and me here, put together entirely from atoms, sitting on this round rock with a core of liquid iron held down by this force of this trouble you call gravity, all the while spinning around the sun at 67 thousand miles an hour and whizzing through the Milky Way at 600 thousand miles an hour in a universe that very well may be chasing its own tail at the speed of light.. and amidst all this frantic activity, fully cognizant of our own imminent demise-which is a very pretty way of saying we all know we're going to die-we reach out, to one another, sometimes for the sake of vanity, sometimes for reasons you're not old enough to understand yet, but a lot of the time we just reach out, and expect nothing in return. Isn't that strange? Isn't that weird? Isn't that weird enough?" - Martian Child.
