"In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different"
Coco Chanel
From The Notebook. Possibly the most romantic films I have ever seen and the one that made me look like a ghoul afterwards as my liquid eyeliner has run all down my face.
This is one of my favourite parts.
Noah: Will you go out with me?
Allie: What? No.
N: No...?
A: No.
N: Why not?
A: I dunno, because I don't want to.
N: OK, then you leave me no other choice.
A: AHHHH
N: I'm gonna ask you one more time, will you or will you not go out with me? I think my hand's slipping.
A: OK, OK. Fine I'll go out with you
N:No, don't do me any favors.
A: No, no I want to.
N: Say it.
A: I wanna go out with you. N: Say it again.
A: I WANNA GO OUT WITH YOU!
N: All right, all right we'll go out.
Other quotes:
"Summer romances begin for all kinds of reasons, but when all is said and done, they have one thing in common. They're shooting stars, a spectacular moment of light in the heavens, fleeting glimpse of eternity, and in a flash they're gone"
"They didn't agree on much, infacet they rarely agreed on everything. The fought all the time, and they challenged each other everday, but despite their differences. They had one important thing in common they were crazy about each other"
"This is not about keeping your promise, and it's not about following your heart- it's about security"
Confused? Watch the film!
Happy Valentine's Day! xx
With Valentine's day just around the corner I suddenly feel very alone in a world where romance surrounds and intoxicates almost every aspect of my life. I am naturally a very sensitive and romantic person and to feel almost unwanted is not exactly a fun feeling. Sometimes I find myself sitting at home feeling awful and wishing I could have someone to hold me close and tell me everything was going to be OK. And I would believe them. I would love them so deeply and tenderly that I would believe everything they said whereas with others I can just see right through their attempts at reassurance and comfort. No matter how hard they try to convince me to pay attention to this or not do that I would not be listening. I would be in my own world dreaming pathetically of who could persuade me into such things.
Sitting down in chemistry I smile at the boy next to me, we will call him H C, who offers me a sweet and when his friend asks for one he says no, which makes me laugh. Obviously he has come to the realisation that any arguments from these two boys on my chemistry table send me into fits of giggles at times. They rip each others jotter and scribble rude words on the other ones folders which is obviously very immature but it does make me laugh so hard. So, H C asks me about my day and tells me about how his class threw snow balls off the first years in gym which makes me laugh even harder. My stomach is starting to hurt at this point and I manage to contain myself enough to write the notes and keep my dignity, but only just. After class my friend asks me about the lesson and I told her about the H C's sweet giving and our conversations. She gives me a look I have seen many times before and she says one word.
'Lust'
What has that got to do with anything?!?

2008 has been quite a memorable year for me. There has been tears, bad times, awful moments, arguments and tensions. But there has been a lot of happiness for me. Smiles, laughter (a lot of laughter) and love, I guess. Most of all for this past year I would like to thank:
- My family, for being there for me and teaching me how annoying little brothers can be
- My fabulous and utterly amazing friends, for all the laughs, tears and hard times we have shared
- My cat, for listening
- Topshop, for helping me develop my own style
- H&M, for your amazing designs in jeans, skirts and cardigans
- Primark, for making me feel loved when I'm broke.
- Stephenie Meyer, for introducing me into a whole new world of literature and hot guys
- Grazia, for making me sound clever whenever I start talking about fashion
- Kings of Leon. Wow! you have amazing music
- Radiohead, for giving me a new anthem
- Muse, for making Twilight fabulous
- All of my amazing readers, for giving me beautiful feedback and flattering me more than I deserve. You all have such amazing blogs and are so inspirational, in style and personality.
- Well, it would come out eventually. Thank you T G for showing me love at first sight. Thank you for showing me how much it hurts when boys have better things to do. And, of course, thank you for showing me how hard it is to move on.
