It's because you and them were made of the same pieces. And afterwards, when you put yourself back together, some piece of them remained.

When I sit near you, I suddenly don't know what to do with my hands.

I was waiting to be struck by lightning, waiting for somebody exciting...like you

Electricity is.. when your hand’s behind my neck and you kiss my lips. -Mutiara Cinta

Empire State of Mind

“The city's got the right name-New York. Nothing ever gets old around here.”

Living in New York City gives people real incentives to want things that nobody else wants. -Andy Warhol

One belongs to New York instantly, one belongs to it as much in five minutes as in five years. -Thomas Wolfe

If you only get one great love, then New York may just be mine...

Fellini

Witness my greatness! I am the ruler of parks and trees from here until the end of the street, I have howled at the moon until it was mine, I am the master of all I survey and I answer to no one!

The fact that you know nothing about me is a flagrant display of ignorance. I pity you.

"Here's to the crazy ones.
The misfits.
The rebels.
The troublemakers.
The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently.
They're not fond of rules.
And they have no respect for the status quo.
You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them,disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing you can't do is ignore them.
Because they change things.
They invent. They imagine. They heal.
They explore. They create. They inspire.
They push the human race forward.
Maybe they have to be crazy.
How else can you stare at an empty canvas and see a work of art?
Or sit in silence and hear a song that's never been written?
Or gaze at a red planet and see a laboratory on wheels?
We make tools for these kinds of people.
While some see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.
Because the people who are crazy enough to think
they can change the world, are the ones who do."

- Steve Jobs, Apple C.E.O.

there is a light that never goes out

rawr ;)

I don't know who you're kissing now. But I do know who you think about when you do.

That's what it feels like when you touch me. Like millions of tiny universes being born and then dying in the space between your finger and my skin. Sometimes I forget.

You were a dream. Then a reality. Now a memory.

And if I blink my eyes enough, maybe I will wake up and you will still be there sleeping next to me.

Ready to POP that Bar

It's definitely one of those days when cravings are running loose...Dying to try Pop Bar Gelato!!

UGH! *sigh*

Patience my lil grasshopper, soon, so soon!

Beautifully handcrafted gelato (aka SEX) on a stick...YUM! Check them out: Pop-bar.com

When did it get so complicated?

...is that too much to ask?

Nuts about Chocolate!

Heaven definitely IS a place on earth, as long as Nutella and Ferrero Rocher are involved...

Drum-roll please... "THE FERRERO ROCHER CUPCAKE" (aka my ultimate temptation/torture). Oh, Food Sensitivity Diet (Day F*cking Eight, 33 days, 8 hours to go...) just you wait till I'm done with you. My handy mixer and I are whipping up some of these decadent babies! CAN'T-FREAKIN'-WAIT!

via Lick The Bowl Good: Nuts about Chocolate.

Don't give the crowd what they want. If they knew what they wanted, they'd be on stage. Not you.

vintage: representing the high quality of a past time; old-fashioned; being the best of its kind.

"Rayuela" - Julio Cortazar

"Y no le hablo con las palabras que sólo han servido para no entendernos, ahora que ya es tarde empiezo a elegir otras, las de ella, las envueltas en eso que ella comprende y que no tiene nombre, auras y tensiones que crispan el aire entre dos cuerpos y llenan de polvo de oro una habitación o un verso."

I just need you to be able to tell people I was here, I felt, I lived and I loved as much as I could, while I could. And that the person that I loved, was you.

this is a man's world...but it would be nothin', nothin' without a woman or a girl.

It's either yes or no, stay or go, wrong or right, black or white. I will not stay for shades of gray.

f*ck u very very much...

cake? nah, give us art

And I know you and I are going nowhere, but sometimes nowhere is right where we need to go. Let's be lovers tonight, tomorrow go back to being friends...

the greatest love of all

"...the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you can find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous.”

oops, i did it again...

where the wild things are

"Maybe some women aren't meant to be tamed. Maybe they just need to run free til they find someone just as wild to run with them.”

to oz and beyond ;)

Now, just like Dorothy, put on your ruby slippers & walk it out!

all is fleeting

I traced our names on a fogged window, and i watched them fade away. just like we did.

man, i feel like a woman!

oh, girls just wanna have fun...

Tell them...

You should tell them the truth. Tell them that if they hold on too tightly, love might cut them. Tell them to hold on tightly anyway. Tell them everything is worth it and that the richness of life is only ever enhanced by its inevitable, brief flashes of sadness and loss.

Boy, was I wrong...

I could've sworn I was telling the truth when I told you I didn't miss you.

Vicious Circle...

Of course it's complicated. If it wasn't, I probably wouldn't be interested in you.

"Life is scarier than death" - JSF

“I changed the course of human history!” “That’s right.” “I changed the universe!” “You did.” “I’m God!” “You’re an atheist.” “I don’t exist!”

“I’m sure people tell you this constantly, but if you looked up ‘incredibly beautiful’ in the dictionary, there would be a picture of you.” “People never tell me that.” “I bet they do.” “They don’t.” “Then you hang out with the wrong people.”

I try not to remember the life that I didn’t want to lose but lost and have to remember.

I needed to see her again, I couldn’t explain my need to myself, and that’s why it was such a beautiful need, there’s nothing wrong with not understanding yourself.

I’m sorry for my inability to let the unimportant things go, for my inability to hold on to the important things.

I thought, it’s a shame that we have to live, but it’s a tragedy that we get to live only one life, because if I’d had two lives, I would have spent one of them with her.

I missed you even when I was with you. That’s been my problem. I miss what I already have, and I surround myself with things that are missing.

We spent our lives making livings.

The memory of his arm wraps around me as his arm used to. Each day has been chained to the previous one. But the weeks have had wings. Anyone who believes that a second is faster than a decade did not live my life.

I regret that it takes a life to learn how to live, Oskar. Because if I were able to live my life again, I would do things differently. I would change my life.

Thinking would keep me alive. But now I am alive and thinking is killing me.

He looked confused, or embarrassed, or surprised, or maybe even mad. I couldn’t tell what he was feeling, because I couldn’t speak the language of his feelings.

“Look at me,” I tried but I couldn’t, she said, “Look at me or leave me. But don’t stay and look at anything else.”

Why didn’t I learn to treat everything like it was the last time, my greatest regret is how much I believed in the future.

“It’s a shame,” she said, “that life is so precious. It makes us worry so much.” “We worry so much, it’s all we do.”

A definite MUST read... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Oh, Harry...

Harry: I love that you get cold when it's 71 degrees out. I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich. I love that you get a little crinkle in your nose when you're looking at me like I'm nuts. I love that after I spend the day with you, I can still smell your perfume on my clothes. And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it's not because I'm lonely, and it's not because it's New Year's Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.

Sally: You see? That is just like you, Harry. You say things like that and you make it impossible for me to hate you. And I hate you, Harry. I really hate you.

White Horse

Stupid girl, I should have known

I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairy tale
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell

This ain't Hollywood, this is a small town
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now it's too late for you and your white horse, to come around

And there you are on your knees
Begging for forgiveness, begging for me
Just like I always wanted but I'm so sorry

Cause I'm not your princess, this ain't a fairytale
I'm gonna find someone someday who might actually treat me well
This is a big world, that was a small town
There in my rearview mirror disappearing now

Now its too late for you and your white horse, to catch me now
