“Oscar Wilde said that if you know what you want to be, then you inevitably become it - that is your punishment, but if you never know, then you can be anything. There is a truth to that. We are not nouns, we are verbs. I am not a thing - an actor, a writer - I am a person who does things - I write, I act - and I never know what I am going to do next. I think you can be imprisoned if you think of yourself as a noun.”

That Kind Of Woman: I went on a date last night I went on a date last night and then you...:

thatkindofwoman:

I went on a date last night

I went on a date last night and then you texted and asked, again, whether I would come there. Start our days with coffee, end with you making dinner. Forever. I feel myself tug towards yes and then I remember why it will always be no with you and I.

There are…

I bow to Mr. Ocean.

A tornado flew around my room before you came
Excuse the mess it made, it usually doesn’t rain
In Southern California, much like Arizona
My eyes don’t shed tears, but, boy, they bawl

When I’m thinkin’ ‘bout you
I’ve been thinkin’ ‘bout you
I’ve been thinkin’ ‘bout you
Do you think about me still?
Do ya, do ya?

Or do you not think so far ahead?
‘Cause I been thinkin’ ‘bout forever

No, I don’t like you, I just thought you were cool
Enough to kick it
Got a beach house I could sell you in Idaho
Since you think I don’t love you, I just thought you were cute
That’s why I kiss you
Got a fighter jet, I don’t get fly it, though

I’m lyin’ down thinkin’ ‘bout you

I’ve been thinkin’ ‘bout you
I’ve been thinkin’ ‘bout you
Do you think about me still?
Do ya, do ya?

Or do you not think so far ahead?
‘Cause I been thinkin’ ‘bout forever

Yes, of course
I remember, how could I forget?
How you feel?
And though you were my first time
A new feel
It won’t ever get old, not in my soul
Not in my spirit, keep it alive
We’ll go down this road
‘Til it turns from color to black and white

The Natural Woman.

Mon, 03 Dec 2012 13:46:00 -0800

I’ve always loved the most natural women; I’m not very into hiding yourself. For me, the most beautiful girl would be a girl that feels comfortable with what she is. I’m always asked about what I would recommend, or what a girl should do—but it doesn’t work like that. You have to find yourself and what fits you and what’s good for you, and most of all, feel self-confident. When you see people that are self-confident, they radiate something good. When you look at iconic people, most of the time they are dressed up exactly the same way for all their life. They dress for themselves … I think the purpose is to find what’s right for you and what you feel good in. When somebody tries to be somebody else and looks too much to the newspaper or wants to resemble a certain girl, it will be a failure because you are not this girl. It’s better to spend some energy to find, ‘Ok, this is good for me,’ or ‘This is the right thing for me.’

A GQ Guide to Canada - Vancouver included :D:

I love articles on Vancouver! They usually capture spot-on all the reasons why one should love this city and the people inhabiting it…..haha even if “every decade or so Vancouverites work out their rage by torching cars and looting storefronts after a hockey loss”.

Check out this link, and then maybe book your next plane ticket to the West Coast yeah?

“Amy Pond: Who are you?
The Doctor: I don’t know yet. Still cooking.”

Sometimes I would like to say that about myself. I am “still cooking”.

Sometimes when you fail, the best (and only) thing you can do is to just pick yourself up and move on.

I’m not gonna dwell on this one little thing. I am going to get past it.
