She sighed, leaning her head against the car window. It had been a year since she was last able to stop in the moment and glance outside to admire the little things; the rain splattering gently down the window, the lights shining on the wet road, and the sound of the car engine roaring softly. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If she were to be completely honest, there were definitely times when she wanted to give up. Times where, all she wanted to do, was just crawl into a ball and hide in the corner of her room, listening to sad music all night and never coming out of that corner again.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yet, she never gave in. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And, she promised herself as she closed her eyes,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
she never will. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;">So am I back?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;">It's been a while, guys.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;">I can't believe I still have 47 followers, I was expecting, like, none. Thank you for sticking around, and I'm so sorry I left without a word like that. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;">Life's just been... busy, I guess. I haven't found time for blogging until today... I just wanted to write something, it's been a year after all... </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;">I'm not sure myself if I'm back or not, I know I've certainly missed doing this, but even I don't know what kind of things life is going to throw at me. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;">So... until next time? </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's 12:14AM.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What exactly am I doing with my life?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have school tomorrow too.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dunno. I just... Can't sleep.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't even know why the human brain just enjoys <i>thinking</i> so much. Actually, I wouldn't say enjoy. But still, we wander to our thoughts more than often. Well at least... I do.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Maybe I'm just weirrrrd. o.o</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ugh.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But going back on thoughts...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have the weirdest thoughts.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ever.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Like I can just literally stay in the same place for two hours (that's what I've been doing right now) thinking about different things, and no repeated stuff either. I think about absolutely everything. I found myself thinking about a pencil. I closed my eyes and pretended I was outside looking at the clouds. I imagine many different scenarios in my head......</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm not even going to get started on that. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
My definition of SLEEP:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Everyone wants it but doesn't realize when they get it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You hate it when you're little, but yearn for it more and more as you're growing older and older. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No. I'm not talking about <a href="http://laurelsmemories.blogspot.ca/2014/01/love.html">love</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm talking about SLEEP. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thank you if you are reading this, it's just a little something to help me sleep. (I doubt that's gonna happen but....)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

It's 12:28AM.</div>

I have to admit this is not my usual sort of blog post. Who blogs about Math? Not me. Because I hate it. But... Here I am doing exactly that. :)<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://www.lindseykrolak.com/uploads/2/2/3/4/22343678/3021130_orig.jpg" /></div>
<br />
<div>
So here's the deal. My math teacher gave us a <strike>puzzle</strike> pattern to solve, and we have to find the rule. It took me days to figure it out, but I finally did and now I want to see if you guys can. </div>
<div>
Here's the pattern:</div>
<div>
<div>
1</div>
<div>
11</div>
<div>
21</div>
<div>
1211</div>
<div>
111221</div>
<div>
312211</div>
<div>
13112221</div>
<div>
1113213211</div>
<div>
31131211131221</div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Now what's the pattern rule? </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
If you think you know the answer, comment below! And if you don't want to ruin it for yourself, then don't click the blog post permalink until you're sure you want to comment! :D I don't even care if you just noticed something or not! :D </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I'm so excited to see everyone's ideas lol.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I want to go somewhere.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With you.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It doesn't matter where, as long as I'm with <i>you.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We can drive through the around the mountains, beside the sea.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Breathe in the cool air, watch the sun set and rise.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Get away from everyone.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Except for <i>you. </i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And maybe one day,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we'll reach the very end of that road.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I am walking down the almost - empty street of my city. It is 10:00PM. It is raining. I can't help but laugh a cold, bitter smile at myself. Of course. Doesn't it always rain in the movies when the main character is thinking about his or her mistakes? That is what I am doing. Because I have made too many mistakes.<br />
<br />
I open up my umbrella, but it doesn't do too much. The rain is blowing onto me, it has nothing to do with blocking the drops of water at the top. I don't care. I let it wash me. It gets on my face and into my eyes. My clothes are wet and I will get a cold later.<br />
<br />
But <i>I don't care.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
It feels as if I am being renewed. I am standing in the middle of the street, only a few cars are coming by and they all make sure to switch on a different lane. I get a lot of weird looks from bypassers, obviously because I am out late at night and standing in the street.<br />
<br />
But <i>I. Don't. Care.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
I don't care what people say or think about me now. I don't care about them anymore. From now on, I will live for myself only. I won't make any more stupid mistakes. I won't let them laugh at me.<br />
<br />
My hand holding the umbrella drops to my side. I am completely soaked, the rain washing away everything.<br />
<br />
The pain. The past. <i>My </i>pain. <i>My </i>past.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
And here I am.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Letting it go.<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
Woah. Where did I get the inspiration to write this?<br />
I don't know.<br />
I like it though.<br />

I'm sure everyone has noticed what a terrible blogger I've been recently.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I just.... <i>don't feel</i> like it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyone dig me? (Sorry, our class just read <i>The Outsiders,</i>and I'm kind of using hood talk.)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Even with school over (CAN I GET A BIG WHOOP) I still just... I <i>don't feel </i>like it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's not like I have no time or anything.<br />
I'm quite a person with no life right now, you see.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I just don't <i>feel </i>like it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And when I don't feel like it, my posts are kind of sucky.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
o.O<br />
I will be going to the US again, maybe I'll post some there. :D<br />

Well, well, well. Look at who hasn't been on their blog for ages? By ages I mean almost a month. *Shudders* Such a long period of time. I can't believe I abandoned you guys for so long. </div>

My dramatic side aside, IT'S MY BIRTHDAY TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
Getting older feels different, but I feel the same. Is that weird? Yeah, I think it's weird. Time really flies by, and I'm always so surprised by it. I still feel like I'm in kindergarten (maybe because I act like it sometimes,) and looking up to the older kids. But now I'm the older kid, looking down at the kindergartens. Time is something really amazing and annoying. It really does fly by while you're having a great time, and it slows down when you're in class listening to a boring lecture. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2. THE ONE IS OUT. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Can everyone please stop and just wait a few seconds for this amazing piece of news to sink in? Thank you. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
3. Writer's block. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://katelansing.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/writers-block_Joanne.png" height="503" width="640" /></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
It's non-existent. I was reading another blog post that I found when surfing the web, and it made a point that I agreed to reluctantly. It <i>is </i>non-existent. It's just something that writer's say when they don't want to write, or are too lazy. Because you might not be able to write something good and juicy, but you can still write. Sometimes I just force myself to write (like in NaNoWriMo), and after the first few terrible sentences, the words start flowing and making more sense. So whenever you want to write but cant think of anything, just write. Anything is okay. Try your best, it may be terrible, but it's still better than not writing. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This is a terrible conclusion. Um. Blog post, DONE! :D </div>

He was behind a white van, where two men in black were jumping in. Something flashed and caught his eye. The sun was reflecting on the metal, and for human eyes it would’ve been so blinding that they would’ve looked away. Jon didn’t. After all, he wasn’t human. He saw a girl being dragged out, unconscious with the metal knife close to her neck. </span></span></div>

He is an alien who came from the star Aldebaran, as humans call it, about 65 light years away. Three hundred years ago, the living beings on that star have been so curious of earth just like we are of other planets, and since they actually had the technology and skill to build an UFO, may he say harshly, unlike humans, came to earth. Needless to say, you’d probably agree with Jon on that one. Three hundred years ago, what were we doing? Inventing phones? Not even. Electric telegraphs. Yes, that’s what we’re doing. Pretty sucky compared to an UFO, right? </span></span></div>

I really need to work on not getting sidetracked while telling stories. Jon’s been stuck here for three hundred years. Never growing old, staying his hot, young self, because of the huge time differences between Earth and Aldebaran. Every day on Earth is a minute on Aldebaran. So technically…. Jon’s only lived on earth for 109500 minutes. He did the math and everything.</span></span></span></div>

He can teleport, move things indirectly (or as little kids would say ‘The Force’), was able to stop time and just walk around like nothing happened, invisibility, and he could heal really fast. On his planet he was average. Normal. That changed a whole lot here. </span></span></div>

If you were the one answering the phone, that whisper would’ve sent shivers down your spine. He sounded like he was on the rim of dying. “I’ve been taken here, to some weird agency, I think. There are people wearing purple and black clothes, here. They might be one of those weird clubs. The two men dressed in black got hit, just like me, because they failed to bring you back.”</span></span></div>

You were hit? Why did they want to bring me back?” Melanie asked. People dressed in purple and black sounded so familiar to her. She closed her eyes and forced herself to think about it, if there was any way to save Sam. And Grace. Nothing. Nothing… except for a sensation of a great impact hitting her and a huge feeling of pain. She quickly opened her eyes up again, and shook all of those weird, strange memories away. Then, it was like as if nothing happened, she forgot it all, as she started paying attention to what Sam was saying again.</span></span></div>

Her phone slipped out of her hand onto the ground, but she didn’t care. She couldn’t move. She couldn’t process what had just happened. In the phone, the growl had said ‘beat again.’ That meant Sam had been beaten up already. He was about to die. But yet, all she could do, was just sit here and wait for the news of their death. </span></span></div>

Jon, even though he was sitting two meters away from her, had heard the entire conversation. He was not as shocked. After living for three hundred years, he had heard about as many murders and kills as the meals you’ve eaten to this day. He rose up and plopped himself on another chair, one that was faced toward a perfect view of the sky. At night, if he sat there he could see his home. His planet. </span></span></div>

Should you be relaxing? Hell NO.

You see, Jon wanted nothing to do with humans. He thought that life should go the way it was meant to be, without any interruption from a supernatural being. If humans knew that Jon had powers, he was afraid that they’d start to rely on him. He </span></span><span style="line-height: 18.399999618530273px; white-space: pre-wrap;">didn't</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 1.15; white-space: pre-wrap;"> want that.

I can’t live without them. Those two have been with me for ten years in my acting career, they’re two of my bestest friends. Her shouting had decreased in to a whisper. A sad, lonely whisper. “I don’t know what I’d do without them,” she said, choking on the words. A stray tear fell out, as Melanie quickly brushed it away.

Instead, to Melanie's surprise, Jon stood up and walked over. “Grab your coat. I got the car keys.” He said, wiping another tear from Melanie’s eyes. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Her bitter laugh sounded, a signal of warning to his ears. “After you </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">make </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">me understand?

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Melanie sighed, a sigh of happiness. The full day of acting was finally over.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">A murmur of thank you began sounding, Melanie contributing to them.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">“Great job, Mark and Melanie. Wonderful actually. We got the whole scene down in two takes. You two are probably the most talented actors I’ve ever worked with.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">“Thank you, and we’re probably no where close. We’ll continue working hard!” Melanie responded, being as polite as possible. This was something that an actress had to have, otherwise the director would probably hate you forever, and you would never be invited to act in one of their movies or TV shows, ever.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Mark nodded, agreeing with Melanie. “Yes, thanks.” Ah. See, Mark, as the less experienced, was still having trouble balancing the politeness part. His response was less likely to make the director happy.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Call it kissing up… That’s kind of true. But that’s basically what they had to do in order to make a living. And let me tell you, Melanie is not as polite as she seems to be. So it seems… Nowhere close.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Read on. There’s proof.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Once the director was out of view, her agent and makeup artist rushed up, each carrying something to present to Melanie.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">“Coffee! Sunglasses!” They said at the same time, handing it over. Melanie took the sunglasses first. It had turned into a routine.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">“Thank you, honeys. The bright sun is so terrible on my complexion, and I’ve been so out of it. It took basically all of my energy to film that last scene,” Melanie said dramatically, while smiling sweetly. Even though that smile made every product she advertised get bought a thousand times faster, Sam and Grace personally thought it was a bit… nauseating.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Obviously, that was nowhere near the case. There was barely any sun out, it was clouds everywhere and it was going to rain. And she just had a cup of coffee before doing that scene.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">But of course, her two followers just nodded and agreed. Because what else could they do? Say ‘Um, you just had coffee half an hour before, and you still say you need more? I just think you’re addicted’ and get fired? Of course not. Grace and Sam were too smart to do that.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> No, they just led Melanie into the car, wordless as Sam plopped himself on the drivers seat. With a loud vroom from the engine, they were heading back home.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> Melanie opened up her window and let the wind blow into her hair. For a reason she never knew, the wind in her hair always felt like she was running, free and wild. Being herself, the true side of herself, the one that no one knew.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> “Hey! It’s Melanie Milne!”</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> “Isn’t that the star of the top TV series Magic and Trouble?”</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> “Melanie! Can I have your signature?”</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> She sighed. She really got tired of dealing with fans. But quickly, she composed herself. She waved and smiled at anyone who was passing by. Sam, who had heard the commotion, had slowed the car down so they were going bicycle speed now. She blew one last kiss at the gathering crowd and drew the window back up.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> “Alright Sam, get the move on.” She commanded, and rested her head against her hand. She never really understood being famous. Being famous meant that you had fans all over, paparazzi mobbing you everywhere you went. But Melanie, unlike the other stars, had always asked why. She was just someone who could act. Who could transform herself into someone else because she was too tired to be herself. She was a person. Like everyone else. She closed her eyes, trying to relax. After all, she was a huge star, and she needed to keep her beauty by resting. </span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> The car screeched to a stop, the door opened, and two guys dressed in black came in. Of course, Melanie didn’t notice anything until too late. </span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> She opened her eyes to see Grace having her hands tied at her back, her eyes wide and speechless, and hearing Sam’s muffled scream.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> Melanie panicked. She reached for her phone, but then she felt a hand suffocating her. Or at least, trying to make it seem like she was suffocating. He actually left an airhole at the crack of his fingers for her to breathe in.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

<div dir="ltr" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #222222;"><span style="line-height: 1.15; white-space: pre-wrap;">She’s running. Where? She </span></span><span style="color: #222222;"><span style="line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;">doesn't</span></span><span style="color: #222222;"><span style="line-height: 1.15; white-space: pre-wrap;"> know. She just wants to get out of there. Out of that place. It’s full of her worst memories, the ones she never wants to keep. She’s running for her life.</span></span></span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">People call from behind, asking her to come back. Or rather, forcing her to come back. But she’s had enough. She runs, and doesn’t look back.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Before when she was forced to run around the court, she would be exhausted at the end of only one lap. Not this time. She was full with joy. She was doing exactly what she’d always wanted to do, what she’d always wished for.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Running, and breaking free.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">What she doesn’t know is that there is something lurking around the corner. Her mind is still fresh with the feeling of freedom – Something she’s never experienced before.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">She turns, trying to get the people screaming and running after her to go away. But at the same time, too late to turn back, a truck is rumbling down high speed down the road.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">She is stuck in the middle. She sprints forward, trying to make it before the truck hits her, but her entire left side crashes in with the truck as she hears it try to screech into a stop.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 21pt;">

Because I've been to Asia too many times and I'm getting bored of it. But ASIA IS STILL WONDERFUL IF YOU WANT TO GO THERE GOOOOO!!!</span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Modern.</span></span></span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">13. Pasta or Soup?</span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px;">Soup, because it sometimes includes pasta. o.O </span></span><span style="letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px;">CHICKEN</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px;"> NOODLE SOUP, for example.</span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">On me, shorter hair suits me better but I envy the girls with the lush and long locks.</span></span></span><br />

<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">It is called. SUNDAY SCRIPTURE. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">And, as the title suggests, I post only on SUNDAYS. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Also, as the title suggests, I post a verse of the Bible. :)</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Here's the first:</span><br />
<h4>
<span style="color: magenta;"><span style="background-color: #fdfeff; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">So I tell you: Ask, and it will be given to you, seek, and you will find, knock, and the door will be opened f</span></span><span style="background-color: #fdfeff; font-family: inherit; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;">or you. Luke 11:9, NET.</span></span></h4>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #001320;"><span style="line-height: 20px;">We ask ourselves, what is "it" in this sentence? Later, in Luke 11:13, it gives us the answer.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #001320;"><span style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<h4>
<span style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="color: magenta;">If you, then, although you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more <span style="background-color: yellow;">will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!</span></span><span style="color: #001320;">" Luke 11:13, NET. </span></span></h4>
<div>
<span style="color: #001320;"><span style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #001320;"><span style="line-height: 20px;">You see? Lately I've been wandering away from God's path for me to the lures of human nature and flesh. I had no idea how to get back on track with the Lord, but after this Bible study I did at church today suddenly things became clearer. I <i>ask.</i> It's as simple as that. I communicate with the Lord, tell him that I want the Holy Spirit in me again, and it will happen. You <i>ask, </i>you <i>seek, </i>and you<i> knock. </i>And then BAM! Bob's your uncle. As it said in the verse above, the heavenly Father will be more than willing to give us the Holy Spirit. </span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #001320;"><span style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #001320;"><span style="line-height: 20px;">Tonight I'm going to pray, and ask God to help me get back along my path that He planned for me. Because as far as I know, I might as well have done a U turn and I'm going backwards to where I started. I don't want that. But without God, I can't help but have that, because I'm human and Satan and sin is more powerful than me. Without God, I can't resist the temptation of sinning and going back on God. But that's going to change. I'm going to pray for God to turn my back around, and force me in the way I need to go, which is closer with Him, and away from Satan. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #001320;"><span style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #001320;"><span style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #001320;"><span style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></div>

<img alt="Flower Photography - Pink Tulips Photograph Award Winning Photograph 8 x 10 Boston Public Gardens Photograph." height="640" src="http://media-cache-ec0.pinimg.com/736x/d5/02/00/d50200324336287c721e31a59ff74aeb.jpg" width="425" /></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Spring.</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Walk outside, and breathe, breathe the new air.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The air has been renewed. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A new feeling is in it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's crisp and freshness reminds me of</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
an apple pie straight from the oven.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Spring is here.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then, inspect, inspect the stylish outfits on the street.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Mits, scarves, hats, and big puffy coats no longer</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
wrap around like vines on people.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The un-bulkyness of the people</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
makes them seem like they've lost a million of pounds.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Spring is here.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you look close, close enough,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you can see the bright green buds on the trees.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They are bursting to grow, just give them a few days.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In a few days, the lonely bark </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
will be full with new leaves.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Spring is here.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now, bend down, down to inspect the ground.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Green strands, poking furiously </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to get through the dark, rich soil.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
From far away, they look like the nails in a bed.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The tips of grass looking like the sharp, painful nails.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Spring is here.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After you look with wide eyes at the new surroundings,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
ignore the vibe of excitement buzzing in the pit of your stomach.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Relax and calm down.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Breathe in the scent of the rebirth</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of the world.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And say to yourself,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Spring.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Is. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I'm starting a new series! :D<br />
It's called Let it Flow. Because often I click the new post button, but I sit and stare at the blank page. I can almost never decide on a *specific* blog post, I always have more than one idea. Today was one of those days so I just thought, well, why not just let my words flow out simply on the "page?"<br />
So here I am, doing just that.<br />
<br />
First off, I really want to thank the beautiful <a href="http://rosey-red-blogdesigns.blogspot.ca/">blog design</a> that <a href="http://a-dancers-pointe.blogspot.ca/">Rose</a> made for me. Isn't it lovely? I thank her so much for dealing with the perfectionist side of me, and adding all of the cool stuff that I could never do. She's just amazing, yanno? Every time I go on my blog, I am absolutely WOWED by the design. GAH, just thank you so murrrch! You are loverly.<br />

Spring. Is. Here. Finally! (Here meaning where I am right now, which sadly, isn't Canada.) Kind of. I saw symptoms today, (finally) I saw snow melting (finally), and a cute little robin (finally,) and grass peeking out of the dark soil (finally,) and the sun shining bright against the clear blue sky (finally.) FINALLY!!! Although the forecast says that it's going to snow (again) tomorrow, I have high hopes that it won't. o.O I hope Canada is finally getting some Springiness, also. :D I wannna come back to a green grass, new buds, kinda view, not an all white scene I've been seeing all winter. My mummy is telling me not to get my hopes up, the disappointment will only crash harder down...... *sighs*<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Life. It's something we have to live with. Everyone has one, and it's probably the center of their own universe. Because every single movement that you make, is you making your life. Every single word you say is you making your life. Every step that you take. Every day on the balcony (In summer, that is, because in winter it is WAY to cold) I like to stop, and look at all of the cars, all of the people. I think to myself, <i>Where are they going? What's happening in their </i>life<i>?</i> Isn't it just amazing? All of these people, all with their own lives. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Indeed it is. Be thankful that you are living your life, that you can breathe every breath you take. That you can say what you want to say, that you can do what you want to do. This is a reason why I like to enjoy the little things, even if it's just my fingers scrambling across the keyboard or drinking hot chocolate. I thank God that he gave me this life, that I can live it. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Indeed it is. Life is very tough. You are met with struggles, pain, suffering, anger, and plenty else of negative things. But as this quote says, you ARE stronger. With the help of friends, family, you can pull through whatever is challenging you. And after you do pull through, you will be so proud of yourself. Life is just a bunch of challenges that are coming your way. You just have to find a way to face them. I'm not saying that it will be easy, but I do know that everyone will have these moments, and everyone will somehow make it.<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
And finally, I just wanted to say this. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Life is wonderful. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Enjoy it. :D</div>

(And other Jazz)I've just decided to do them all in one post.... :D<br />
Day 2: Favorite Quote(s)<br />
My absolute favorite is<br />
<br />
"Life is like a bicycle. To keep your balance, you need to keep moving."<br />
~ Albert Einstein.<br />
<br />
Day 3: What makes you happy?<br />
When I'm feeling sad.... I do many things.<br />
I talk to my friends to keep myself distracted from what's bothering me, take a long bath, sleep, read, watch movies, eat - like a lot, go for a walk.... Yeh. :P<br />

Day 4: Best Childhood Memory<br />
Oooh.... Well I really like the time when I was like... three or something. I was in the US, with my completely Chinese grandma. So she took me on a walk, and she was like, "Hey, Laurel, in case we get lost, remember that there's a red sign over there, okay?" And I was like three, so I just nodded and smiled. As we kept walking, though, my grandma got really confused. She noticed that there were so many of the same red signs, and we got lost. Dad had to come get us.... xD Turns out the red signs were stop signs....<br />
<br />
Day 5: Favorite movies you never get sick of watching.<br />
All Disney Princess movies, (Modern and Classic), High School Musical, The Sound of Music (Yeh I know, I'm such an oldie :P), Despicable Me, The Spy Next Door (Probably my favorite among all of these)<br />
<br />
And yeah!<br />
Time for other jazz!<br />
So I placed an order for a new blog design at<a href="http://rosey-red-blogdesigns.blogspot.ca/"> Rosie's designing website</a>. I really thank <a href="http://storytellerofwestoncounty.blogspot.ca/">Anna</a> for her wonderful design, but after five months, I would like a new start. :D<br />
<br />
Also, I'm going to be guest posting at <a href="http://a-flyleaf.blogspot.ca/">Lizzy's</a> at the end of March!!!!! IM SO EXCITED LIKE GOSH!! Keep an eye out!<br />
<br />
Also, I have been working on the Princess of Perildton series, third part is coming soon!!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Haha. Homework.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you didn't notice, the title was full of sarcasm. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Because I fweel like I'm loaded with homework.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Which I'm actually not, so it's kind of funny.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I should be working on my Science Conclusion thingamabob.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But instead, I'm here, procrastinating.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Why do people procrastinate anyway?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Oh the Joys of Homework.</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I find myself, here again,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
staring at my lonely desk. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What am I doing? do you say?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Why boring homework, as always. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh homework, homework. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How I wish you weren't that much work. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Could you not stop to think</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How much it is annoying to think?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh homework, homework.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Give me a day without no work. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Would you please just go away</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and find a place to rest and stay?<br />
<br />
Ahem. Wrote that in two minutes. Hope you liked it! :D<br />

Shanks, I wuv you guys. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>The Ten Questions: </b>(These are the ones from Cindy and MorningTime4. Except I changed the ninth one, I really had no answer to it. o.O)<br />
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br />
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>1. Books or movies?</b><br />That's a hard one, but books. Because... I don't know, actually. I just find them... Original? Sorry, that sounds weirrd. I just find reading magical, like I mean.... Okay. I'll stop rambling. </span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>2. Favorite holiday?</b></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Chinese New Year, excuse my Asian-ess. </span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>3. Summer or winter?</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">That is a VERY hard question. Because I'm the kind of person who likes the "in-between" seasons, like SPRING and FALL. So anyway... I'll just say Summer because right now I'm SICK and TIRED of winter. It just snowed 10 more centimeters today, not very happy. </span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>4. Any relationship advice?</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This works for any kind of relationship. Be you. Nobody likes someone fake, and you get tired of not being yourself.</span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>5. Where do you want to travel to?</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I actually really want to go to Cuba. The only thing is, I can't. I'm American with an American passport. And they don't let you go to Cuba. Which sucks, because all of my friends (who are, of course, Canadian) say that Cuba's awesome and have been there many times.</span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>6. Biggest fear?</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Whew! Such embarrasing questions, man. </span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The dark. Because everything is unknown, and like I don't know what's in the darkness. But I do have an eternal source of light, Jesus. <3</span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">

<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>7. Favorite quote?</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">"Life is like riding a bicycle. In order to keep your balance, you need to keep moving."</span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>9. Why do you blog?</b><br />Because I can be who I can be with the screen in front of me... Um, it's very inspiring. And I find it's like a diary, only much cooler. :) </span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Not that diary's are cool, I mean like they're REALLY cool but like blogs are like...</span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I've never been on a hot air balloon.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And I really want to be on one. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just that feeling you get when you see everything at the bottom....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Beautiful and glorious.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can't stop thinking about it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That would be the perfect place to think.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Perfect place to write.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Perfect place to be inspired.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's amazing <3</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And now, going on a hot air balloon is officially on my bucket list.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I would like to see the world in a different point of view.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just floating in the sky.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So free. So wonderful. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Without a care in the world. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How would that feel?</div>

<div style="border: 0px; line-height: 23px; margin-bottom: 1.8em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Harold Edward Styles turned 20 today on February 1st. If you’re a Harry girl, get ready to cry.</span></span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; line-height: 23px; margin-bottom: 1.8em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Harry’s always been there. He auditioned for the X-Factor just like the other boys, but he was the youngest at the age of sixteen. Anybody remember how he cried and how our hearts were snapped into a million pieces when he watched him cry after they lost? Then came his relationship with Caroline Flack. It was over soon. His heart was broken again.</span></span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; line-height: 23px; margin-bottom: 1.8em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">We listened to every solo he had on Up All Night. We listened to every solo he had on Midnight Memories. We listened to every solo he had on Take Me Home. Again, we cried, this time over how he sounded in a song like Stole My Heart, where he sounded like a kid, and then we came back as faithful Directioners and heard him sing in Irresistible. He sounded like….a man.</span></span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; line-height: 23px; margin-bottom: 1.8em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">Harry’s the youngest, and he’s so innocent. How can you look at his beautiful smile and think he’s a bad person? Really, he’s not. He’s kind, loyal, and loving. And that’s why we should love him back. He loves his fans no matter how many haters (and there are lots) that attack him on Twitter. Doesn’t someone like this deserve to be loved? Someone who never faltered in being the nearly perfect person he is? When he cries, we should all feel his pain. And we have. Lessen that pain, please. If you’re reading this and you’ve sent him hate, let this speak to you. It hurts him. Harry’s a normal guy, he sees things on Twitter just like the rest of us. And this is my message to all of you- stop sending hate, just give him a break. Wish him Happy Birthday, and mean it down to the bottom of your heart.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; line-height: 23px; margin-bottom: 1.8em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">

I really shouldn't take credit for this. So I'm not going to. This was made, by one of my BEST blogging friends last year and I just switched it a bit up to match this year. She is the wonderful CRocks, and her blog about 1D is <a href="http://theonedirectionfandom.wordpress.com/">here</a>. Honestly, last year this touched my heart so I decided to share this with all of you. </div>

I love you Harry. Happy twentieth birthday, from the bottom of my heart. <3<br />

We all have that one friend.<br />
Who makes you smile when you're feeling terrible.<br />
The only one you spill all of your secrets to.<br />
The one reveals your crazy side.<br />
The one who understands you, no matter what you do.<br />
Don't you just love that one friend?<br />
Without them, what would you do?<br />
I would be a mess.<br />
I wouldn't smile, ever.<br />
I would be serious all the time.<br />
I wouldn't be me.<br />
I wouldn't be complete.<br />
That one friend is amazing.<br />
They make you who you are.<br />
<br />
This is dedicated to my BEST FRIEND, Emma. Sure, she can be annoying. But I can too. And everyone has their flaws. And I accept them. She accepts mine. The day I met her was a day I could never forget, because I met my other half of my heart. And my twin. Twinzz forevah! :)<br />
