I don't think I've ever cried tears of joy like that. Actually, happy or sad, I don't think I've ever cried tears as genuine as those. That movie was so ( Read more... )

I can't help but hate myself right now. I haven't slept. I'm too nauseas to eat. Everytime I see my own reflection, I want to cry. I haven't yet been able to yet, though I wish I could.

I needed this weekend, and by this weekend I mean all the days after Friday. Friday was terrible and I was nauseas and feeling gross all day. But Friday is over! I've been a strange amount of depressed lately, but this weekend, today especially, really made me happy. Melanie and Lara came and stayed for a night.
