all the pretty little horses
All she knew was the darkness. The absences of light. The total blackness that took over. Not her eyes, but her soul. The doubt and fear and anger and depression and anxiety that filled her being and burst through every pour of her body. She walked around in the world confident and brave, but that’s not who she was. Who she is. She’s scared. Oh so scared.
But there were rays of light in her life. Things that would break down the dark walls and shine pure happiness, pure joy into her dark world. Things that made the fear not so strong and the anger not so bold. Things that made her brave and confident, like the mask she put on everyday. Things – people- who gave her hope and meaning and a place and a reason and everything a person needs to survive, to thrive,
To live.

rewind
"He saw the danger coming. He saw the darkness of death heading right for his face, his body, his life. He knew he could escape it. He could get away from death's evil glare. He could run, now, and never have to face this dim light again. It would leave him be until it was his natural time.
But the beating heart behind him held him in his place.
The beating heart that belonged to a soul so bright even the sun looked black. The heart pumped blood into the beautiful body. The smile and bright hazel eyes belonged to that pretty face. The soft touch that the hands had and the soft whisper of the velvot smooth voice. The long, shining chocolate hair. The flawless skin, the great smell, the funny jokes, the sad tears. The perfect girl.
Love. He thought. That's what keeping me here.
Death walked up to him, smiling its fanged lopsided smile. Death reached out its hand and snatched for the girl. But he stood in the way. He didn't move his ground. Death growled and lunged for the girl. But he stood strong, not letting this thing take away that amazing life behind him. Death howled like the wolves in the forest and jumped. He jumped too and grapped Death and threw him to the ground. Death yelled and screamed and protested, but he wouldn't move. Nothing, not even Death could take his love from him. "
"I looked up into his brown eyes. I never thought that brown eyes could be so unique like his. I laughed when I saw my reflection in his eyes. "What?" Pete said, looking as though he were missing part of a joke. I shook my head, still giggling. "Nothing, I just saw myself in your eyes." Pete smiled his perfect, white smile. I laid my head on his shoulder and he put his arms around me. I loved his arms; they were big enough to protect me, yet small enough not to crush me.
"Addie look," Pete said, pointing up to the black blanket known as the sky, "a shooting star. Make a wish." he whispered in my ear. I squeezed my eyes shut and made a wish. When I opened them I saw Pete's face inches from my own. "So, what did you wish for?" He asked. I smiled and shook my head. "If I tell you, it won't come true." We sat outside on the grass for another hour or so. I missed spending time with Pete. He was a bassist in a band and he was always on the road. Most times I traveled with him and his band members, but not this time. I had to wait a month before I could see him again. Pete got up off the grassy lawn, helped me get up, and then led me through the back door of his house.
I was greeted with a warm blast of air as I entered his house. I sat on the couch that Pete's dog, Hemingway, was asleep on. Apparently disturbing Hemingway's comfort zone, the brown and white bull dog jumped off the couch and moved to the love seat across the room. "I don't think he likes me." I laughed when Pete came over to the couch, carrying two mugs of hot chocolate. "Nah, he likes you. He just knew that I wanted to sit next to you." Pete said, taking a drink out of his mug. I noticed that some of his hair was sticking up. I brushed his black hair back to where it belonged. "Thanks." He smiled, sounding sarcastic. I smiled back. "Anytime."
We had begun to watch Pete's favorite movie, The Nightmare Before Christmas, when his cell phone started to ring. He checked to see who it was then sighed. He turned off the ringer and threw his phone across the room to the love seat Hemingway was on, making the dog jump out of terror. We both laughed at Hemingway's reaction. "You know Addie," Pete said, putting his arm across my shoulders. "We've been together three years, right?" I nodded. "I'm surprised you've been keeping up." I said. He laughed. "I won't lie and say that I had to check my calendar in my phone to see how long it's been." He got quite after that. "Why did you bring it up?" I asked, curious as to where he was going with this conversation. "Well, three years is almost a lifetime." He said. I smiled. He was always trying to be deep and lyrical when he talked. "Yes, I guess it is to some extent." "And well, I think we should spend our lifetime together." he said, digging in his pocket.
My racing mind had nothing on how fast my flustered heart was beating. Pete dropped to one knee and asked me that longed for four-worded question: "Will you marry me?" I squilled and jump at him, giving him the biggest hug ever. "I'm taking that as a yes." Pete laughed. I nodded. "You know what?" I said to him as we sat back down on the couch. "What?" he whispered, playing with my hair. "You just made my wish come true.""
there ya go. haha (:

i'm doing this from school
Wednesday, March 23, 2011
i could never be on survivor.
anyhoo.
1. People will take helpful advice and will only hear the positives. it's annoying.
2. I'm better at figuring out ways of fixing/solving things/problems/people then actually getting out there and solving them.
3. My life has done a complete 180 in one year. As much as most of it sucks, i have learned how to be me.
4. I try to be funny a lot. 89% of the time it backfires.
5. The main reason I'm going to school in Austin? To get away from this place. There is only a handfull of people i will genuely miss.
mkay. bye

sometimes
1. i like puzzles. i have to be in the mood to finish them, but i always like starting them.
2. i hate talking about LOST with other people who disagree with my theories because we just sit there are argue about a pretend island, pretend people and pretend smoke monsters.
3. i'm addicted to Dr. Pepper. like today i craved it so bad. it was like i was on crack.
4. i pop my ankles, neck, toes, fingers, and knees a lot. i'm not going to be able to move in my later years.
5. i think i'm going to start doing this. writing five things (not really sure what they are) everyday/chance i get. it's nice.
mkay. bye.

semi-confession
and of course by write i mean blog. because that's what teenagers do.
1. the Bible says to LOVE EVERYONE! not the perfect people with the perfect life and the perfect background. hate the SIN not the SINNER.
2. i hate that i am just now realizing how deep in a rut i was. i'm finally happy. like really and truly happy. i just wish i had opened my eyes years ago.
3. i am so excited for this summer. life as a high school grad before a college fresh. should be fun. and SLA! (:
4. i do a lot of things just to make others mad or jealous. i'm glad i have friends who do the same. aha
5. i'm either going to be a missionary when i get older or make documentaries to inspire Christians to get off their butts and make a difference and not to think mission trips are all about shoving Christ down people's throats. it's about loving people. once you love them, the time to share the Gospel with them will come. it should be about saving broken people, not racking up salvation stories.
my rant. felt like the world needed to hear from Addie. hope you're doing okay. i know i couldn't be any higher on life. to bad tomorrow's monday. imma come off this mountain real fast.
mkay. bye.

i'm going to say......food. and milk.
so, i didn't start reading Harry Potter until the 5th grade and only because I needed like twenty AR points and you go like 5t64367563r5252 just from the first book. So I read it, and an obsession was created. I love Harry Potter. I don't believe in magic, I don't believe in wizards, I don't believe in witches and crazy monsters and trolls and unicorns and the whole harry potter world. But I do believe in the human spirit and the triumph of good over evil. I believe in the power of love and friendship. Which is what Harry Potter is all about. So if you're going to condemn me to Hell because I enjoy good FICTION, go ahead. See you in Heaven.
the town city you reside in
oui.
I live in Greenville. I love the people here. Well, some of them. I like how its on the weather map, capital of Hunt County and really a good size town to grow up in. but that's it. i dislike the rest of the town.
thoughts on Mean Girls
FUNNNNNYYYYY movie. like, when its on, I have to watch it.
siblings
Avery.
He's 15. He's the Monica to my Ross. The Max to my Ruby. The Tiger to my Winnie (;
He's my best friend and I know I say that a lot, but he is. I tell him EVERYTHING and anything. We take the long way home and just vent or sing silly songs or fight over the radio. We always have fun and even when he has a stick up his butt and it takes every ounce of self control not to punch his face, I love him to the ends of the universe and back, and then some.
(:
something you craved today
oh, I wanted Subway all day today.
Wednesday, Day 15
favorite junk food
are sun chips junk food? I love those. and chicken nuggets from mcdonalds. and crunch wraps from taco bell.
i'm going to talk about the black man in his blue car. We got to the intersection at the same time. I went when he went. We stopped. He went when I went. We stopped. We both waved the other on. We both didn't move. I waved him on. He went. He smiled. I smiled. He pointed at me and nodded. I pointed at him and nodded. I went.
it was quite the ten seconds. not sure why that's stuck in my head. guess no one has ever met me at an intersection and pointed and nodded. haha
favorite disney princess movie
Hercules is my favorite Disney movie, and Meg is one of the B list Disney princesses. But if I have to choose a princess with the movie named after her I would say either Little Mermaid or Beauty and the Beast. Belle is the prettiest and Ariel has red hair (:
my closet
is bad. full of blankets, purses. well, thats really it, but my closet is little so that fills up the whole thing. lol oh, and lots of clothes. then on the top shelves i have books and games. lol
thoughts on Ugg boots
eh. not cute.
a representation of me no one really knows
i love to write. The documents folder on my computer is filled with stories I've started and never finished. I have an app on my phone that is filled with my writings. I love writing. I just never let anyone read it because I think I'm bad. That's really all I want to do in life is write, but that's just not going to happen.
soda, fo sho.
something you collect
t-shirts. i have over two hundred. you call it a problem, I call it a collection.
initials of crush
i don't have a real one, but i have plenty of celebrity ones (;
A.G.
P.W.
R.P.

B.A.
that's all that came to the top of my head. i love half of the male population of Hollywood. but yeah (:
favorite part of myself and why
i love my hair. i love how it's red, thick, curly, long. i hate it most days, but i love it deep down. (:
i have glasses. It's because my left eyes is near sighted and my right eye is slightly far sighted. I can see just fine without them. but the stupid drivers place obviously thinks i need them.
i like hanging with my friends. does that count as a hobby? (:
if it can be anything, even things not in school, i like to watch people. i like to study them. i know that sounds creepy, and i'm probably digging myself into a hole, but people interest me. i like to know how people think, how the handle certain situations, how they deal with stress, relationships, happiness.
if it has to be a school subject i like history. once again because it's people and i like to see how their mistakes worked for them and see if people are still making the same mistakes.
room as it is right now

Well, my favorite season is fall. Cold enough to wear long sleeves and pants. Warm enough to still turn the A/C on and go places. But since fall is only like four days long, I don't get it much. So I'll go with my second favorite: winter (:
day five-o
kat-shup
A lot of crap. A book I need to read for school. Some gloves. Two pencils that don't have lead. My wallet. A mirror. Chap stick. Some scraps of paper. Head phones. Notes from church last week. My old iPhone. And that's all I can remember. haha i don't even dare to empty it out.
Write about your closest friend(s)
i have so many wonderful friends. Some I consider to be closer then others. Some will always hold a special place in my heart no matter where our lives lead us. Every person I have ever considered a friend - regardless of when, where, how, how long - has taught me a very important life lesson. I am forever changed by your friendship.
I'm not really good at the whole words thing. So I'm not going to write a paragraph about my friends. Words will ever be able to describe how dear you are to my heart and how vital you are to my survival. I love you so much and thank God and all the angels above for the best friends a person could ever dream of. So, since I suck at the words, here's a song.

Make-up work
Well, we went to Planet Wisdom. I had to leave early, so i drove my own car down there, which meant I had to buy gas for it. Then I bought food down there. And i'm pretty sure that's it. haha didn't do much spending(:

but i mean, what's in a name?
I HATE MY COMPUTER.
1. stop doing the letter thing, because that's not cool anymore.
2. get on the laptop and start getting on blogspot more.

4. start other 30 day challenges because i've fooled myself into thinking i'll actually finish one.
on your mark.
get set.
GOMEAT!
