i'm over here

7-11

When I was a kid, I used to wake up in the middle of the night because of bad dreams. When you’re just a small girl awake on your bed in the middle of a dark room you get strange ideas. I thought I was the only person in the whole wide world who was still awake. I’d always cry for my mom.

I grew up a little and noticed twenty-four hour stores like 7-11 all over the metro.

I realized that at least there’s some cashier person somewhere still awake. And that comforted me very much.

Thank God for 7-elevens. :D

Hint.

Anything.

See?

I was talking to Chris a few days ago.

I remember saying something about seeing people as just people. Like when you see a person, you just see the person. You look past the clothes, the accessories, anything that clouds your vision of what the person is truly like.

I think I’m waiting for the one who will see all my flaws and then say “so what?”

I’ve been obsessing over Rico Blanco’s Your Universe because of the profound lyrics. I promise I won’t let it get to my head but I’d really like a guy who honestly believes having me makes him the lucky one.

I don’t know if you caught my drift. I just felt like saying something to this effect.

If You Don't Have Dreams of Escaping

I don’t think you’re thinking all too much.

All my day thoughts have been about road trips and plane rides to any part of the country. It’s not a very encouraging thought that I don’t get around that much. I only know of work and home and church and some surrounding malls plus everything within an hour radius of our home.

I want to travel as much as the next person.

But..

On second thought, there shouldn’t even be a “but anything”.
