She looked down at her hands and told me that nothing was easy. She asked me if it bothered me. It was unusual for her to think about things like that. I shook my head and said no, not particularly. I was just curious, I said. She traced the inside of her wrist with one finger and told me that nothing was simple.
She looked up at me and asked me to try to kiss her. Everything seemed to be happening so slowly on that afternoon, and everything had a strange haze of golden light over it. Of course it was the sunlight. But then it wasn’t. It was the two of us and the cracks in the ceiling. There was no clock in that room and yet I could hear something ticking, slowly, like an old grandfather clock. I didn’t know what anything meant.
I suppose we stand somewhere between the terms stranger, acquaintance, ex-lover, friend. Somewhere between that vast distance (and yet, utter closeness) that separates and merges the four categories, we glide like ghosts, moving backwards and forwards according to time and memory. It’s easier to pick up the phone now that we’re relatively on speaking terms. Except there’s that dilemma of what the hell there is to say. I finally watched that movie you loved, the sky looks awfully pretty today, the way my father looks these days makes me feel like crying, does your mother still make you feel like all you've done since the day you were born was disappoint her, isn’t it tragic that smoking makes so many people sad. Random observations and feelings that we know the other would fully understand because we were holding hands when the events that led up to it happened. I told you how afraid I was that my father would burn himself out trying to keep so many people safe and happy. I was there when you tried to quit. You wouldn’t shut up about that stupid movie. My arms were wrapped around you that one time we saw the sun set. So these thoughts and feelings don’t seem so random after all - but they are. You haven’t been in my life. I can’t just pick up the phone and call. Or blurt it out on the rare occasions we pass and say hello on the street in this claustrophobic city. And we are afraid, of course. Of wounds that never seem to heal. Of rubbing salt into them, or revealing one we never knew we had. I tried, you know. I tried a dozen times. I almost sent you texts. I almost called.
I wanted to see you. I always changed my mind.
This is my open letter to the friend who is close by, but is also so very, very, very far away. This is everything I can’t bring myself to say. I hope you’re doing wonderfully. May your life be blessed, and may you always believe in the wonderful, strong, courageous person that you are.
"i wish it could have just worked out."
me too.
more than anything.
it's been almost four months
and i still think about you every single hour
of every single day
and i still miss you
and i still love you
and i want to believe i've accepted that we'll never be together again
but it sure as hell doesn't feel like it
and i'm sorry every day
and i want to go back and change everything
and it hurts so bad
and i don't know what to do.
I WON! A pair of tickets to Six Flags!!!
Problem: I don't like Six Flags. I'm beyond terrified of roller coasters. And I already have plans with my aunt and uncle for New Years. Maybe they'll come with! The other ticket can be for one of them, and then we'll only have to buy one.
OMGOMGOMG!!!
I've never won anything like this before! Actually, I don't think I've ever won anything...ever :/
BUT I HAVE NOWWWW!!!!
Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooot!
Staying up until 5:30 actually paid off!!! :D
( my room )
My name is Johanna and I am a 19 years-old girl from Munich, Germany.
I love a japanese band called Kanjani8. They've sneaked into every corner of my room. Not in the creepy, over-the-top way though ♥
And this would be my room:

Welcome to my room! ♥
( lots of mint green & white ahead )
I'm so glad I found this community :)
Well anyways, I plan on redecorating my room to look more antique-ey,goth/victorian :)
I would like to stick with blacks off whites and teals/turqouise colors, BUT I cannot paint my walls due to me living in an apartment.
I can put shelving up though :)
So any good ideas or refrences you can show me? And good places to go to get little nick naks? (Besides the local antique store ;p)
I will be going to a local craft/fabric store called hobby lobby as the have amazing fabric there for curtains :)
Any help would be appreciated!
P.S.-if this is too long, lemme know and I'll attempt to make a cut :)

I do get awfully depressed.
And knowing I'm PMS-ing sucks, because it makes me feel like my feelings are invalid. Like I don't have a right to be sad, because I know it's just my hormones talking.
Nothing is wrong, and I shouldn't be upset.
So I guess I'm not.
( My Dorm Room )
I also have a question/request. I was wanting to do my poloroids and some fun pictures I found online, hung up with clothespins. It's a dumb question but how do I keep the clothes pins from scrunching together if the string curves down? (I hope someone understands what I am saying.) I was also wanting to see people post pictures if they have the photo-clothespin in their room. Thanks in advance! :]
there were 50 photos in 2 outfits but i've picked my favourites and put them here. Just thought i ought to post in 2am more.
anyone else gone for makeovers&photoshoots before? (:
