“I hate the way you talk to me
And the way you cut your hair
I hate the way you drive my car
I hate it when you stare

I hate your big dumb combat boots
And the way you read my mind
I hate you so much that it makes me sick
It even makes me ryhme

I hate the way you’re always right
I hate it when you lie
I hate it when you make me laugh
Even worse when you make me cry

I hate the way you’re not around
And the fact that you didn’t call
But mostly I hate the way I don’t hate you
Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all”

– 10 Things I Hate About You

! Warning

You think about 60,000 thoughts a day. It’s up to you to make sure that you don’t use up 59,999 of them with negative, cynical thinking. Generally, the main reason why people have “bad days” is because they turn every thought they think and situation they encounter into something way negative and usually blow everything out of proportion. If more people could learn how to look at things in a different, more positive perspective then there would be less people in fights and more people in love. 

What I Love About You

I love you just the way you are.
Everything about you.
Your sleepy voice.
The way you make me smile like no one else can.
Your sense of humor.
Your personality.
Your kindness and compassion.
Your smile.
Your laugh, oh my god, your laugh.
So yeah, I love you just the way you are.

The First Time

The first time I kissed you.
One kiss.
I was totally hooked.
Addicted to you.

I could never love anyone the way I love you.
I’d follow you across the universe.

I wish

I wish I could be young again,
have no worries and no cares.
I wish I could have
naptimes and play dates.
I wish I could have
my childhood back.
I wish I didn’t grow up so fast.
I wish you didn’t force me to grow.
I wish you would’ve taught me to know,
the difference between
now and then.
I wish I could’ve had a better friend.

Cousins

These are my beautiful cousins: Shyann, Gracie, and Mikayla. I love them very much and I cannot wait to see them tomorrow 🙂

Made me Think of You

“You find someone who loves you, someone who respects you, someone who cares about you, and you’ve found someone worth keeping.”

When I read this for the first time one year ago, I didn’t think of anyone.
Now a year later, you’re the only person that comes to mind when I read things like this.
You’re my one and only and I guess you could say I can’t help but consume my mind
with the sweet thoughts of you, darling.

You’re my everything, my always, my one, my only, and my forever.
You’re the one I would do anything for at any time of the day.
You’re the reason I wake up with a smile on my face every day.
And you’re the only person I could imagine spending the rest of my life with.

And I’m beyond okay with that.

Skinny Thoughts

So lately, I’ve been thinking about picking up with my workout plan again, since I have nothing better to do. But, I also realized that I’m not totally out of shape, in fact I am very very healthy. I’m healthier than most people my age, I’m just not super skinny. But ya know what? I’m totally okay with that! I love my body, I love that I’m tall and I have crazy long legs, and a circular face and a great smile, and super soft, nice skin. I love myself and I don’t want to trick myself into thinking that I need to be really thin to love myself. I love my life, I go to a great college, I’m in the best relationship with the most amazing man, I’m getting really good grades, I’m healthy and doing well physically, I’m getting killer grades, and I have an awesome support system. I’m blessed and I’m very proud of myself for finally realizing all of this, I’m ready to be “happy lacey” again, xoxo

Visiting

This is turning out to be exactly how I thought it would be:
Me sitting all day wondering when real people would get home
So I could have someone to talk to and interact with.
Only, when they get home, they play on their phones and
completely ignoring my every attempt to reconnect. 
I’m tired because I can’t sleep without you.
I miss you and I wish I could just be in your presence
because even you treat me better than my own family does.

I feel like I’m just visiting and I want to leave. Now.

Your Love is Different

There’s a reason I used to say I’d be happy alone.
It wasn’t ’cause I thought I’d actually be happy alone.
It was because I thought if I loved someone and then it fell apart,
I might not make it.
I used to think it would be easier to be alone,
because what if you learn that you need love and you don’t have it?
What if you like it a lot and lean on it?
What if you shape your life around it and then it falls apart?
Can you even survive that kind of pain?
Losing your love would be like organ damage.
It would be like dying.
The only difference is
death ends.

But that’s something                                 I don’t have to worry
about, not with you. you                   are, in every sense of the
word perfect and I couldn’t imagine myself with anyone but
you. You are my muse, my best friend, my lover, and my
man. And I would do anything if I could be with you
every single day. Because even though I may
not be with you every hour, every minute,
every second, you will always be in
my heart and I will always be in
yours. Because at the end
of the day, you are my
one and only. I love
you to the moon
and back.
