[29 Dec 2009|03:42pm] dear_you [jessamarie18] [ mood | bored ] [ music | stop the world by demi lovato ] Dear God, I don't want to be a paranoid right now. I hope that he's safe, everything is safe. I can't afford to lose someone right now. Let me be happy, with my friends, my family, everything else around me and most especially, him. I miss him so much. You know how much I talk about him in my prayer. You know how many times I think of him everyday. Please, let him be safe. I hope to enjoy this vacation. I want to worry of nothing; to live life freely. I want to enjoy. But how can I if I haven't talked to him for days. Sigh. Let him be safe. Let me be happy with this free time.   post comment

[29 Dec 2009|01:40am] dear_you [rymefb] [ mood | scared ] [ music | Peaches ] Dear Perfect Guy,    I are so scared of love and damn right I should be. It's temporary happiness and I don't think the pain is worth it. But it is the soul of our desires. It's all we really want in life. But I'm not going to let it suck me in. All I want is a happy relationship. A great guy to give you that movie like smile and then done. I don't want it forever because I don't want to become attached. Because what's going to happen when I become attached?! I'm going to lose you and then what do I do?! I am an independent person. I love myself and that's good enough. But dammit I crave for that other person. We can't control our feelings. I hope I never meet you. Sincerely, One Scared Girl post comment

wooo cupcakes! [29 Dec 2009|12:28am] curiouscupcakes [joyfulkel] name: Joyfulkel (or just kel) location: Somerville, MA cupcake history: I've always been into cooking. For a while I was really into brownies. Then one day i wanted to bring a mexican chocolate cake to a friends house, but i was running short on time and figured cupcakes would be faster. That was at least a year and a half a go and i've probably made at least one batch every month. I even made twelve dozen for my sister's wedding. I have a cooking blog called <a href="http:www.more-cupcakes.blogger.com">More Cupcakes</a> why do you like cupcakes: they make people happy. People have a reaction when you bring a batch of cupcakes that they don't have when you bring a cake or brownies. Also for some reason the smaller size makes it easier to experiment. And they can be fun to decorate <lj-cut text="me and the wedding cupcakes. Guiness Chocolate with Baileys Buttercream Frosting and Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese"> </lj-cut> 2 comments|post comment

[28 Dec 2009|07:38pm] dear_you [chendamoni] Dear You, I'm assuming things have not been looking up for you. If you would just tell your friends "I am sorry. You were right about me, and I do not know why I never listen," then I think things might start looking up again. Sincerely, Chenda * * * * * Dear You, My excitement just turned into anxiety as I am anticipating an uncomfortable situation in about a year. Sincerely, Chenda * * * * * Dear You, I have come to terms with it, and now I am actually looking forward to moving back home this coming summer. I hate that my life has been on fast forward ever since I graduated high school. I have had plenty of happy moments with old and new friends since then, but not enough time to savor them. I hate that the most. Sincerely, Chenda post comment

cup cakes and daisies, rainbows and sprinkles... [28 Dec 2009|09:37am] curiouscupcakes [dixykitty] [ music | I Love Lucy dvds ] ♥ Name: Lizzy ♥ Age: 22 ♥ Location: California ♥ Your cupcake history: I have been baking since I was in diapers. The first thing I baked was actually a bunch of cup cakes! They came out REALLY horrible, they were hard as rocks and the frosting I made didn't come out right so I ended up using dirty/mud and made them look like chocolate cup cakes....fed them to my family.....yeah that did not turn out so well LOL ♥ Why you like cupcakes: Cup cakes are just so friendly. Even the scariest cup cakes and gruesome..they're still so friendly. You can't go wrong with cup cakes. ♥ Anything to share?: I think one of my best memories of making cup cakes was for Comic Con 2009 this year. A comic artist I follow by the name of Drew Rausch said in a blog he would work for cup cakes. So I took him up literally on that post and I baked him rum/vanilla cup cakes with rum-butter cream frosting. Now mind all of you....When I put rum in my baked items, they can and WILL put you over the limit on the breathalizer test. It has been tested various times and proven true :). But of course, they always taste delicious! Well..I showed up with about a dozen cup cakes and he about crapped his pants. He drew me a tattoo for the cup cakes and went on film for demented puppet filming I do with a friend. It was awesome. Here some photos from that :D 1 comment|post comment

[28 Dec 2009|12:24pm] dear_you [kickupthejams] dear friends, all of you are immature and cruel. or maybe i am just a hateful bitch. regardless, i can't stand any of you. its like we all reverted back to being in high school. and personally, i'd rather be alone and friendless than constantly hurt. next time you want to judge me on my life, take a look at yourselves. youre all adult children living at home with mommy and daddy. you are ALL overweight, and some of you are morbidly obese (medically speaking). some of you cant hold down a job for longer than a month, one of you refuses to work more than one day a week. you talk about all the things you need, and every time i see you, you have some new useless garbage that you overpayed for. or (and this is retarded as hell), you're saving up $600+ for an expensive hotel room for an expensive anime convention that you live FIFTEEN MINUTES AWAY FROM, because you hate "traveling". youre all lazy, whiny fucks who like to judge everyone but yourselves. i am officially DONE feeling bad for the multitude of things you have made me feel bad about. like being healthy and in shape. or working full-time. or having a boyfriend. or pursuing my interests and hobbies. or being able to afford nice things. or having a family that loves me. or having other friends. or putting ketchup on my breakfast sandwiches. a friend is supposed to be there for you, through thick and thin. a friend is supposed to listen to you when you need to talk. a friend is supposed to accept you for the good and the bad. a friend is supposed to care about you. by that definition, none of you are my friends. i wish i could say that i'm sorry, but i am not. i wish i could tell you that there is a way to fix this, but there isn't. i wish you would realize how selfish you all are because of this, but you won't. forever i am destined to be the big bad wolf and you're all innocent sheep. goodbye. post comment

[28 Dec 2009|09:20am] dear_you [december_lily] Dear You, Please stop hurting me. I don't think I can take it anymore. Please stop believing in your misunderstandings. It seems like underneath all the pretty words you have an underlying extremely low opinion of me. Only someone with a low opinion of me would jump straight to believing terrible things about me. Unless we're more alike than even I realize. If I were to compare you to the Lost Cause I failed in stopping in his destruction of young women's self-esteem, there would be no possible way I could ever think you evil the way he was. Unless you're the most evil of all, playing the part of a soul of light so convincingly that I would have fought to the death to defend your honor against any naysayers. Or maybe right now I'm doing the exact same thing I asked you to stop doing in the first paragraph. I guess either way it doesn't matter anymore anyway. If you were going to straighten things out you probably would have walked down the stairs by now. I think the worst thing about this is that no matter how much you hurt me, how hard you make me cry I can't walk away from you. I guess soul-blood is thicker than ether...and that was an attempt at a joke to lighten things up. That's what always gets me in trouble with you. You think there's mal intent in my jokes, but please believe me when I swear to you that there never is. Also, is there really anyone besides you and Justin who actually can understand them? If my intuition tells me a joke is too obvious, I won't voice it. Forgive me if my intuition missed the mark on that one. Love, Aimee post comment
