life reminders for the memory-impaired.

lightbulb in a dark room.

Like the desert
waiting for the rain,
like a school kid
waiting for the spring-
I'm just sitting here
waiting for you.


So yesterday I saw St. Elmo's Fire, which was very good. :)
`Cause you know, that song "1985" by Bowling For Soup? It goes;
"She's seen all the classics, she knows every line-
Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink, even St. Elmo's Fire."
And since I love The Breakfast Club, I asked my mother about the other two movies, and she said St. Elmo's Fire was very good.
Btw, I've had 1985 stuck in my head since then. How sad. Because I love love LOVE 80s movies, and I love love love LOVE 80s music.
Why couldn't I have lived in the 80s? ):

I've decided I wish I had been born in the 60s [around when my mother was born?] Because then I would've grown up listening to The Beatles, when they were big- and during a revolution ^^ And then I'd go through puberty and adolescence in the disco era, dancing my pants off everyday. >:D
AND THEN I'D BE IN MY TWENTIES IN THE 80s :DDD The best years of my life in what I consider to be the greatest decade. Ah, dreams.
Oh, speaking of the twenties being the greatest years of my life, I consider it would be so because so many things would finally be legal. But once I pass 30, I think I'd seem too old to have anymore fun D:

You know that phrase, "story of my life"? How someone might say;
"I got fired today."
"Story of my life."
I like that phrase. I need to find more situations & conversations to say/use it in..:P

I've been reading The Happysad Archives lately, and I'm hoping to get through every single one of them. My favorite is this one: http://gallery.happysad.be/#4.11
Isn't that just so sweet?
They're all so cute and sad. :(


This quote randomly got stuck in my head:
"Love goes toward love as schoolboys from their books,
But love from love, toward school with heavy looks."
Can you remember where it's from?
I couldn't. I had to search it up xD

thirty seems to be the age where everyone starts to stop partying, and settles down...... Or wants to?

10 good years of parties and fun.
I think that's enough.
As long as they're spent with the right people *coughcoughcough*

But we're gonna party LATE into our 40's/50's :D
Because we're awesome like that.
And we'll always be children. ;)
