There will be a day when you believe in fairy tales all over again. The world will come to its senses and puts its effort into every single human being who needs to re-discover. Until that day, we're all supposed to believe in magic and art because without it, where are we supposed to put all our emotions into and what are we supposed to hope for? The beauty of following ones passions is what matters most until there's a black hole sitting in front of us defining success. So screw the status quo and believe in fairy tales.

Shubz and Chubz

Just saying, this is a poorly written post. It is literally just written out of love, and does not lack anything, in my opinion, but eloquent vocabulary.

So I'm making my best friend a birthday present. And it's extremely hard to put in two years worth of love into a present. There are so many things that I want to tell her and so many things that I want to remind her of and so many ways that I want to tell her how much I really do love her. Shiraz has to be one of my only very close best friends. She also put much time and effort into the present that she made me for my past birthday so not only should I return the favor, I hope to top that one so she knows just how much she means to me. There are many different words that I could use to describe Shiraz, among them: innocent, wild, spontaneous, cautious, beautiful, kind-hearted, open-minded, elegant, driven, and simply the type of person that you'd want to approach and get to know. There are many things that I could give her. For example, I have already gotten her two rings. I could also give her a sweater, a cd, a dance outfit, or anything simple of the sort. However, there is much more depth necessary and needed to be put into the type of present you'd want to give a best friend. Never take your friends for granted, because in any instant, in any moment, somebody could be gone and out of your life forever. Happy Belated Birthday Shubs, I hope (when I finish it) that you will like your present. And I hope it represents the happiness and the sadness we experience together. I hope it describes how sisters are supposed to be. How best friends are supposed to be. How I hope we'll forever be.

I think my favorite moment, and probably yours too was the one time when we had a sleepover. And you were sleeping in the living room and I was sleeping in my head. However, being at my house so much, you are obviously accustomed to being around me all the time. So you came to my room and you didn't even knock on the door, you just opened it and looked at me. So I pulled the sheets up and I said, "I knew this would happen." We laughed and you said your "awww's" then we spooned (I know, who knew it was possible when this girl has such a big badonk). My next favorite moment was the day I got everybody on facebook to write Shubert on your wall. From then on, you became Shubs or Shubz (as Abdullah likes to call you). Then Abdullah also nicknamed me based on our fat relationship: Chubz. From then on, you and I became Shubz and Chubz.

I know both of us aren't completely great at being cheesy with one another, but without words, we get by with our actions. Your hugs are the best, Shubz. They make my day each time because there's no hesitation in it, it is literally just a giant hug shared between two small sisters. I love you so much and even if I'm still in the fucking U.S. for college and you're in Israel for the Army, I know we'll keep in touch. It's hard to look into the future for the day when we leave each other but one day we'll be rooming, on a farm, like we planned, spooning. :)

New Years Eve

Spent at home, relaxed with my two friends Crystal and Sarah. Thought it would be kinda boring. In fact at the beginning it was. Then the computer came out and the speakers and we blasted music until 3 AM. It was fun dancing with my two best friends, just having genuine conversations and eating shitty food and drinking unhealthy drinks. NYE '10.

What comes next? Interviews

"Do I wish I was doing better?

Yeah...but I'm not alone in that

A lot of people are struggling right now.

All I can do is keep trying, you know?

Get up, work hard, pay the bills, hope for something better.

I think there's nobility in that.

That woman or man that's waiting for the bus after a long days work.

Parents who come tired and still find time for their kids.

That's who I'm rooting for.

That's who I respect."

"I worry about what comes next, I know. I do.

I just... i just can't believe it's gone."

A Penny For Your Thoughts

If there was a possibility

For the sky to turn violet

Would you take it?

If Zeus could tear down his lightning bolt

And draw it into your hands

Would you hold it?

If a dime could take you riding

All around the world

Would you use it?

If, at your touch, a ripple through the pond

Could change your reflection

Would you let it?

If there was a chance that

your world would self destruct

it's yet to be found beauty

Would you stand and watch?

I wish Greek Mythology still existed because I'd unite myself to that religion. Greek Mythology includes both heros and creatures of all beautiful sorts. Greeks gave you the choice of not just one god but many to which you could pray to at any time. My favorite would probably be Poseidon because he's in control of the ocean, feeling the sway of the tide and having the power of water which controls every living being's life on this planet. My next favorite would probably be Hermes because he was a messenger god. He had cool ass wings on his feet and was at peace with everybody.

I wish I could travel back in time to a place where imagination and the seizing of existence in fact pushed those to live based on philosophy and hope. Where no Greek was afraid to live long enough to become a hero, one to look upon. Medusa is our reflection. She is our insecurities, she freezes us in the moment where we look upon ourselves through her million eyes. Greek Mythology really seizes to amaze me. The 21st century sucks.

Julian: Brooke?

Brooke: Yeah?

Julian: It's gonna be hard this thing between us. Being friends.

Brooke: Yeah it will be. But it's better than not being in each other's lives.
