i said, hi. i said, i can't be with you. i said, i'm here for you as always, but not like a lovesick cat swirling around your ankles anymore, begging to be rubbed. i said, you'll have to approach me for my company. i said, if you're interested in me, show me. i said, i won't badger you every wednesday with "so, are you ready yet? what's going on? let's talk about us!" i said, i won't feel around in the dark anymore for what you need and what you mean. i said, figure it out and tell me. i said, i'm not going to board a plane every time i want to be close to you. i said, come to me when you think you're capable of being in a relationship, close or far, and come to me without subtlety.

He kissed her.
A kiss about apple pie à la mode with the vanilla creaminess melting in the pie heat. A kiss about chocolate, when you haven’t eaten chocolate in a year. A kiss about palm trees speeding by, trailing pink clouds when you drive down the Strip sizzling with champagne. A kiss about spotlights fanning the sky and the swollen sea spilling like tears all over your legs.

- Francesca Lia Block (Weetzie Bat)

♥ Soo today went to the Walden Galleria mall in America! Gah I got so much. Track pants and three shirts from Abercrombie, a sweater and two shirts from American Eagle & two scarves and one shirt from Aeropostale. I feel so guilty because my parents bought everything.
Next time I go there, I'm getting shirts from dELiA's because they have some pretty hot t-shirts. Except I couldn't buy them since I already wasted money on all those other clothes.

♥ Oh and remember that notebook I was talking about in the last entry?
Read this.
It made me happy.

♥ I can't stop listening to this song.

♥ That is all. I'm off to go watch Desperate Housewives soon.
