Sparks Fly

The way you move is like a full on rainstorm
And I'm a house of cards
You're the kind of reckless that should send me running
But I kinda know that I won’t get far

And you stood there in front of me just
Close enough to touch
Close enough to hope you couldn't see
What I was thinking of


Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Kiss me on the sidewalk
Take away the pain
'Cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile
Get me with those green eyes, baby
As the lights go down
Something that'll haunt me when you're not around
'Cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile

My mind forgets to remind me you’re a bad idea
You touch me once and it’s really something
You find I’m even better than you imagined I would be
I’m on my guard for the rest of the world
But with you I know it’s no good
And I could wait patiently but I really wish you would

Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Kiss me on the sidewalk
Take away the pain
Cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile
Get me with those green eyes, baby
As the lights go down
Give me something that'll haunt me when you're not around
Cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile

I run my fingers through your hair
And watch the lights go wild
Just keep on keeping your eyes on me
It’s just strong enough to make it feel right
And lead me up the staircase
Won't you whisper soft and slow
I’m captivated by you baby
Like a fireworks show

Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Kiss me on the sidewalk
Take away the pain
Cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile
Get me with those green eyes, baby
As the lights go down
Give me something that'll haunt me when you're not around
Cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile

P.S. If you haven't noticed, I'm kind of a bit of a T-Swift fan. Deal with it:)
P.P.S. On this day, I'm thankful for TESTIMONIES.

happy happy happy!

I'm going to let you all in on a little secret.
So you know how my last post was basically rantings about dumb boys?
I take it all back. All of it. Why you may ask?
Because I said to myself, 'Self, you're being mean. Stop it. You've had a wonderful week full of wonderful friends and wonderful memories and now you're home to a wonderful family and wonderful friends and wonderful classes. Your life rocks!'
So here I am with the posts of happy posts. Okay maybe not THE post of happy posts, but definitely happy. Wahoo!!!
I have no words to express how I'm feeling so now I'm going to attack your sense of vision with pictures as to why I'm so happy!

"Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile."
- Mother Teresa

'All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.'
- Walt Disney

"In all of living, have much fun and laughter. Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured."
— Gordon B. Hinckley

“Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, when one only remembers to turn on the light.”

Frustrations and Distractions/

Hello.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
That is my frustration with BOYS. Please, can I just become a nun? Or an old maid that lives in a shoe. With a million cats. And a shot gun. Or maybe I can just travel the world...but a place is only as good as the people in it, right. Sigh.
Why must I have the worst luck when it comes to men?
Anyway. I need a distraction,
Oh, hello distraction.









Here's the lowdown: you must write out your answers so your readers can see your actual handwriting.

Las preguntas, the questions, as questões:
1. what's your name and blogger name?
2. what's your blog's URL?
3. Write, "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."
4. Favorite quote?
5. Favorite song?
6. Favorite band/singers?
7. Anything else you want to say?
8. Tag bloggers to participate.

And I tagged these lovely ladies:
Miss Mollie at Meandering with Mollie (She's a cutie pie, her handwriting has to be super unique and awesome)
Jill at Just Jill (Jill is from Texas...maybe her penmanship is different. Plus she's a red head! Which means her handwriting will be the best)
Mariana at Mariana (Just because Mariana has the most girlie and cute handwriting known to man.)
Katie at Life According to Me (We need a break from the girlie handwriting..plus I just love her.)
and Audrey at This Is Me (Audrey is the epitome of classy. Can't wait to see her handwriting!)

P.S. On this day, I'm thankful for A.D.D.!

Herc.

Today, I will tell you about my perfect man.
He will have great genetics:
Red hair.
Sparkling, blue eyes.
Killer smile.
(When he smiles, the girls go wild with oooooh's and ahhh's.)


He will have super strength:
Puts the glad in gladiator.
Undefeated.
Rippling pectorals.
Able to lift giant boulders.
(Jeepers mister you're realllly strong!)


He will be on the awkward side.
Thinks he's a ladies man.
But is really clueless about women.


He will have great means of transportation.
Isn't afraid of heights.
Or flying, for that matter.



He'll be a hopeless romantic.
Bring me flowers.
Plays hookie with me.


He will be my knight in shining armor.
Willing to give up his strength, for the love of his life. (me!)
Rescues me from evil centaurs.
Trades his life in order to keep mine safe.


Oh Herc, one day you'll come along and rescue me, be my hero.

"For a true hero isn't measured by the size of his strength, but by the strength of his heart."
