(via ihearthotsauce)
We should do that.
When the time is right.
Whenever that is…
Why is it that after you cheat...
I mean RIGHT afterward, is when you realize how much you love your partner?
This may not be true for everyone, but that’s what I was just told.
Maybe at that point is when you realize just how precious it is what you have, and just how easily you may have lost it, and how it’s all your fault.
I forgot everything I never learned in religious...
Mom: [says something about a Christmas miracle]
Me: PRAISE JESUS! HE IS RISEN!
Mom: That's Easter.
Me: HE IS FALLEN!
Mom: No.
Me: Oh.
This song is just about verbatim how I...
illusion...
As a God-fearin woman I have learned to speak good things over myself and not to give in to the spirit of defeat, despair, all that stuff. Speak things into existence. Blahze blahze.
Well, I speak many things into existence, but sometimes I think I’m just lying to myself.
There’s a difference between “I AM getting a 4.0” and “I AM over my ex bf/gf”

Random Aliesha Fact #7
I wanna learn several languages:
-korean
-spanish
-french
-latin
-mandarin
-japanese
-arabic
I mayyyy just force my kids to learn the first two.
Yeah. I will actually. :)
So there's this guy...
another interesting specimen who’s thoughts he so freely expresses on the Internet are really blowing my mind right now because I LITERALLY feel like he’s speaking to me.
Like he knew me in a past life.
Like, maybe I was his husband and maybe he was my wife.
And he just surprises me with the sheer honesty of his expressions, not caring what his friends may think or how he may be...

Random Aliesha Fact #6
I’ma dork :P
I don’t mind cheesy. I’m cheesy. I’m 21 and I act like I’m 12.
So what.
So I've been thinking...
I might not wanna go after bait.
I might wanna be a virtuous woman.
I might be backtracking.
…
might.
So Random Aliesha Fact #whatever it was is a daily occurrence and I think WAY too much about stuff.
That aside, thinking about the kinda guy I want to build a lasting relationship with, I want him to want a virtuous woman…which would of course be me :)
Now here’s the...
I feel like I've been drifting though life...
Maybe it’s a syndrome of going to CMU, but I’ve felt too unfocused and unpurposeful in the last few days.
Makes a girl wonder…
And what I hate is that I have such a burning passion in me for so many things, but no direction. No focus.
Nothing to funnel it all into or show for it…
hmm. must change that.

I'm going back to the DMV.

I’m never excited to go back to the house where the rest of my stuff is, but as soon as I cross the border into the beautiful state of Maryland my body feels better :)
Maybe I am excited…just a little.
