still i haven't learned my lesson well

it's funny...how everyone in this world has the same experiences, but in different ways. 
I mean, we all can relate to that same "story", but it's different in each circumstance still.
Isn't that where cliche's are born from??
what about this one "you don't know what you've got til it's gone"...Probably one of the most overlooked cliches i feel. We all agree on it right? but then we all still don't listen to it. We don't value what we have until it's gone, and then we miss it like crazy. And in fact somtimes this whole situation surprises us to the extent that we may realize feelings we didn't know were there, until it's gone. 
Maybe it's just me hating change though...when something's gone, or something changes, i fight hard to put it back the way it was cause i hate change. Who knows right? I'm just selfish like that i guess.

But lately, since, well...a death...I've realized the importance of people in lives, and how often we miss our chances to tell someone something. Who knows what time we have to tell someone something. And 9 time out of 10, we let it pass by and never tell them. And then...it's too late. I just want those people to know how much i need them in my life.

what if you weren't here tomorrow

if you weren't going to be there tomorrow
i would hug you for a long time
and not just the kind of hug thats a "see ya" kind of hug
the kind of hug where it almost gets awkward because
people don't know how long to stand there for
or when to let go, or what to say.....
that kind of hug is the one i would give you

if you weren't going to be there tomorrow
i would tell you how much i love you
and not just he kind of "goodnight, love ya!"
but the kind of i love you that freaks you out a little
cause you don't know what they're thinking
as they look right into your eyes
thats the kind of i love you i'd say

if you weren't going to be there tomorrow
i would want to laugh
not at you, or at the fact that i wouldn't see you
but the kind of laughter that brings people to tears
the kind when something is so funny that your laugh almost
becomes silent and you just double over
the one where it's only you and the other person laughing
and only you two get it
that's the kind of laugh i would laugh

if you weren't going to be there tomorrow
i would say sorry
not the pity kind of "ohhh that sucks, sorry!"
but sorry for everything i've done to hurt you
every word, every action that caused you pain
I wouldnt' just ramble it though....i would mean it
cause i am, and i do.
that's the kind of sorry i would say to you

if you weren't going to be there tomorrow
i would cry. Not the kind of crying you do in sad movies
or when you hurt yourself really badly. But the kind of crying
that means life will never ever ever be the same without you
The kind that attempts to heal the ache inside and you don't know
how else to fix it, so you just cry. But the ache doesn't leave....
that's the kind of crying i would do

but you always end up being there tomorrow. what if i miss my chance one day.

krisskross applesauce


hey kristie,
i dunno if you ever read my blog. But i just want you to know that I'm gonna miss you more than you know. It's going to be so different not having you here...and it made me realize that soon you'll be gone off on your own for good. to school. to your own place. to your own life. I miss you already. Have fun in sweden. meet a good swedish boy and don't forget to skype me lots :)
I love you big sis. You've got me through so much, and hearing you on the other side of the phone made me want to rush to the airport and be with you through this all. It's crazy how time flies. I know you'll have fun over there, but I pray you'll be safe and enjoy everything God shows you while you're there. You're so brave, venturing off half way across the world all alone. It does remind me of our first trip to England, all alone...it's just another step for you, another building block. Can't wait to see you soon. Love you so much kriss

i opened my mouth. but i was still speechless.


What does it mean when your heart feels heavy. When you have so much you want to say, but no words really lift the heaviness from what you're feeling. No words fit. No words are enough. 
It is then time to listen

river flows in me


i never said i hated you. Because i thought i never did. But how can i be so against everything you were, and yet not hate you? I avoided you as much as i could, and whenever you came up i took the opposing position. So how could i not hate you...When non christians started talking to me about their outlook on religion, i said "i would say that i believe, i'm just not living it"...which is in otherwords the most meaningless statement of faith. It's as if i wanted to be connected to God for the advantages that held, but live without its rules.

Today i went to church. I have my sister to thank for that. People...you can beg and plead for me to do something. I'm stubborn as heck so it won't make much difference what you say to me. I believe what i want to believe and i don't what i don't want to believe. So if you used all your energy to try and convince me to come to church and i didn't want to...tough luck. But thanks to my sister i was forced to go because she needed me to cover her kidzone shift. I really had no choice. But deep down...i wanted to go.

it hurts to hear when your best friends can't even talk to you about the changes they see in you. It sucks to know that you were once "good"...and now everyone wonders what happened to you. I don't want to be tainted. I don't want regrets on my shoulders. I did this all wrong, it's about going about it the RIGHT way. Nobody said i have to be perfect or fake. I just need to be real with myself.

1) guess what??? i don't give a. you can try those little things on me, but i can be twice as unpleasant. just try me. You're not getting away with that anymore. not with me. Don't think for a second you affect me.

2) you're too hot. calm down.

3) thanks. sorry. sorry. uh...sorry? shoot

4) you're my friend, but i feel like you don't listen

5) wow things change. i can't stand you anymore, and you used to be my shield

do you feel it now?

do you feel it now?...
do you feel the fact that highschool is coming to a close. I feel it. I'm already saying goodbyes to people in my head. Dismissing the ones i've never talked to, and drawing in the ones that mean the world to me. One of my best friends is even leaving to another town after grad. The other wants to live in Hong Kong...on the other side of the world. Do you feel it now? 13 years was definately not long enough. In fact it was the shorter than i asked for. You don't pay attention to these things in middle school or even at the beginning of highschool. Do you remember that random kid that left your grade? Okay, one less person in your grade, no big deal. But what if that one kid was your best friend. Now try the whole grade leaving...and nobody ever really sees each other. I know that you can say "it's all about how much effort you make"...but reality hits change and eventually you just stop. Not because they didnt mean that much to you. In fact they meant the whole world to you. But eventually you stop being friends with the people you see everyday for 6 or more hours a day. I can say, "that won't be me". But think of all the summer camp friends you swore you'd stay in touch with. I can hardly remember their names. I'll never forget the names of the people who guided me through highschool, but within a decade the only thing we'll have in common is facebook.
Do you feel it now? I'm not saying this because im a pessimist. I'm saying this because the truth of it is sinking in, and i hope that by saying it, it stops being true. But you and me both know thats not happening. I couldn't forget the years of PA if i tried my hardest. But i feel it, its coming to a close. This will be the greatest chapter of my life.
