So I was looking at Etsy today and I came across the shop "thebigharumph" and they have the cutest prints. I loved these two. The second one is so funny to me. Anwyay, I thought it was worth posting. What do you think?

love in the 80's

"Whatever happened to chivalry? Does it only exist in 80's movies? I want John Cusack holding a boombox outside my window. I wanna ride off on a lawnmower with Patrick Dempsey. I want Jake from Sixteen Candles waiting outside the church for me. I want Judd Nelson thrusting his fist into the air because he knows he got me. Just once I want my life to be like an 80's movie, preferably one with a really awesome musical number for no apparent reason. But no, no, John Hughes did not direct my life."

- Olive Penderghast, Easy A

Seriously...she totally nailed it. Why can't life be like the movies sometimes?

you are...

Chuck and Blair

Why do they always do this to me?

I think I seriously might have to stop watching the show if they don't end up together. It's stressing me out.

Remember last season finale? Yeah, are they really just going to do that again? Ugh, ok I think I'm too obsessed. I know.

one man

"You only need one man to love you. But him to love you free like a wildfire, crazy like the moon, always like tomorrow, sudden like an inhale and overcoming like the tides. Only one man and all of this."

Ridiculous Love

I went to my friend's bridal shower tonight and have a few weddings to go to over the next few weeks. It's wedding season after all. But it made me think. I'm so happy for my friends. They are so in love and happy to be getting married. None of this nervous business or flakiness, etc. The guy almost seems more excited than her even, which is just so refreshing to see. It just makes me smile. It's nice to see that. Makes me still have hope that it will happen for me and that I'll find someone that loves me more than anything :)

I'm looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can't-live-without-each-other love.

The Romantics

Just watched this movie and it was so depressing. I hope that I am never in either of these situations.

1. I hope the man I am in love with is never about to marry another woman just because he is trying to be safe, even though he knows he should be with me and knows he loves me.

2. I hope the man that is marrying me isn't really in love with someone else. And that I'm smart enough to realize it and let him go if he is.

This movie is about a group of friends who get together for their friends' wedding. Katie Holmes plays the maid of honor to her best friend, who is marrying her old boyfriend (Josh Duhamel). Obviously if you couldn't tell they're still in love. Also, kicker...she went out with him the day before they got engaged and he didn't tell her. She found out when Anna Paquin (the bride) asks her to be the MOH. Don't worry, I didn't give away the whole story. You find out all of this in the first few minutes. You'll have to watch it to find out the rest. It's a good movie, but so depressing and NOT the right time for me to watch it. Lots of good actors and actresses though.

frustration and an apology

This may not sound like what love is to most people. I don't think this is love either, but it does sound a lot like a relationship. At least this is sort of what I am going through right now.

So I apologize for all of my depressing and pathetic posts lately. My blog has sort of become a place for me to get my frustrations and feelings out, because I feel like then I don't have to burden people with it and if you read my blog you can just skip over the posts that seem boring you or don't want to read :)

Anyway, relationships always start out so happy and fun, but anyone will tell you they take work. I also guarantee there are very few people that say they haven't been through a point in a relationship that actually meant something where they haven't ended up crying themselves to sleep one night and then smiling their faces off the next day. Relationships are hard. They come with making big decisions. They come with happiness and heartbreak. A great relationship makes it through the hard things, but they for sure are not perfect.

I guess I'm at the point where I'm trying to figure out what my relationship is right now. Hopefully it just makes me a stronger person in the end either way.

fish in the sea

Sure, there's plenty of fish in the sea. But there's also sharks, seaweed & toxic waste.

Hey Idiot

worth fighting for

Love is everything it’s cracked up to be…It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for.

Chris Young - Tomorrow

Tomorrow I'm gonna leave here.

I'm gonna let you go and walk away like every day I said I would.

And tomorrow, I'm gonna listen.

That voice of reason inside my head telling me that we're no good.

But tonight I'm gonna give it one last time.

Rock you strong in these arms of mine.

Forget all the regrets that are bound to follow.

We're like fire and gasoline.

I'm no good for you.

You're no good for me.

We only bring each other tears and sorrow.

But tonight, I'm gonna love you like there's no tomorrow.

Tomorrow I'll be stronger.

I'm not gonna break down and call you up when my heart calls out for you.

And tomorrow, you won't believe it,

but when I pass your house, I won't stop no matter how bad I want to.

Baby when we're good, you know we're great.

But there's too much bad for us to think that there's anything worth trying to save.

Tomorrow, I'm gonna leave here.

I'm gonna let you go and walk away like every day I said I would.

come back

*from the movie Atonement*

Sometimes this is all I want to say. Too bad it's not that simple.
