2009

Oprah Winfrey once said "the only courage you'll ever need is to live the life of your dreams".

I am convinced that 2009 is the year of my dreams. I shall make it so because I have faith.

I could have written this

"Why is it that I never seem to fall on the preferable side of this quote?"

This sounds exactly like something I would write - both the quote and the entry by Design Crush.

Wallflower

I could have died, maybe I should have died
When I saw you walk inside
And as you shut the door I put my eye back on the floor
When all I really wanted was to look some more

Going Back to School

I'm thinking of going to school, so I can meet some new people. You know me too well to appreciate how much I suffer any more.

Next Christmas
