Today I...

Knew the answer, but didn't raise my hand.
Again.

You see the smile that's on my mouth

All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am

But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true, I was made for you
I climbed across mountaintops
Travel across the ocean blue
I cross over lines and broke all the rules
And baby I broke them all for you
Oh because even when I was flat broke
You made me feel like a million bucks
You do, I was made for you
- The Story, by Brandi Carlile

Goodness.

It's been awhile. But I'm glad to be back :)


By the way...I read the second book to Life As We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer, The Dead and the Gone. It really wasn't as good as the first one I thought, and I was very disappointed. This book followed a New York City family through the Moon-getting-knocked-closer-to-Earth-and-all-of-humanity-ending-crisis, which I thought would be very interesting, but it was just...disappointing. I don't know. But I just found out there's a third book, so I'm going to harass my school librarians until they give in and order it for me from the public library like last time. I'm crossing my fingers in hope that it will be better then this one!
