Death shouldn't be scary but shouldn't be rushed, ya know? It happens when it happens. Let it be how it is meant to be.

Say what you want, but Eurovision makes me feel like we're so close to each other. I mean, whole Europe (plus Australia) is watching. We're all spamming social media with posts, memes and all that stuff. We're living it!

That makes ys so unite.

And I think that's beautiful ❤

when I was younger - in fact, even a year or so ago, I used to be afraid that God would want me to go be a missionary in a foreign country. You know, missionaries always talk like God told them they had to, so they dropped everything and went. And Jonah tried not to and had a pretty rough time of it. So it’d always seemed to me like God would bang on my door one day and tell me to get up and go and talk about Jesus to people who didn’t want to hear it.

As soon as the application opens I’m going to apply for a program through the Presbyterian Church that will place me anywhere in the USA or possibly the Philippines or Peru to serve for a year after I graduate.

I’m not afraid anymore. I’m not afraid to lose what I’m leaving behind. I’ve learned that I’ll always have a friend or two and that where God is, there my home will be. I don’t feel like anyone’s obligating me to go, but that it’s what I was meant to do.

honestly I’m more concerned about my application being rejected at this point, because that would be straight up confusing haha

You cannot be sad forever. Just as you cannot be happy forever.

so. to be honest, i only started watching sleepy hollow because i saw a thing on youtube that said it was coming on that night and i thought what the hey i have literally nothing better to do.

i didn't expect to liveblog literally every single episode thus far.

i didn't expect to find actors and staff who actively engage not just with the fans, but with each other.

i didn't expect this to become the best part of my mondays.

i didn't expect much and i got way more than i ever thought i wanted. i've become one of those rabid fans. i'm a sleepyhead gdi and i am proud. since the first couple of episodes i have been saying that i will definitely be buying this series when the dvds come out. i don't know how but it has wormed its way into my heart.

i may be creeped out and sad and be yelling in rage because of having to wait for resolution to effing huge bombshells, but at the same time there's a huge derpy smile plastered on my face. i have found my show. i have found my doctor who/supernatural/sherlock/what have you. and it is a damn good show, inside and out. representing women and people who are not white as being just as badass and amazing as people who are white. irving and jenny are two of my favorite characters ever - this coming from a white girl, if that matters.

so congrats, fox. though you frustrate me you have a loyal viewer for however long you deign to keep sleepy hollow on air. {may it be forever.} so happy it's already been renewed for a 2nd season and i hope it's so much more than a 2-hit wonder. i don't see where they can go after this but i'm hoping they pull off something because i need this show. i need it.

thank you, sleepy writers and orlando jones, for livetweeting a lot of the episodes. your commentary on tonight's one certainly made me smile. :)

I feel like meaning is only something you find if you're looking for it.

Do you ever have that feeling when you're alone and you feel completely lost?  You realize that everyone else is out there, maybe doing something.  Everyone else seems to be so sure of themselves, and everyone else seems to have control over everything.  

Then you look at yourself, and even though you've had everything planned out, you ask yourself.  When does anything ever go according to plan anyway?  Or perhaps you ask: What am I without something?  

Like seriously.  Everyone just assumes I'm this or that, but without it, what am I?  Would I be just an empty shell?  Would I be the same, or am I really nothing at all?  Just an empty shell with a little talent in this and that, and that's all anyone will ever know?  

It seems like everyone else is managing everything fine, and then you see me, who just dwells in the past and fandoms because she doesn't want to deal with crap in the real world, who just wants to draw and write and can't commit to anything at all; someone who only complains and makes promises that she can't keep, and someone who has no idea how to stop doing that.  

Then when someone makes a 'joke' about how this silly little girl fangirls too much, or who complains a lot, or when the only 'occupation' people can imagine her doing is being an artist, she wonders what it would be like if she fails.  If she just can't do it.  What if she wasn't good at art?  What if she did stop complaining?  Would it really change who she was?  

What if she was without anything?  Would she really have an identity?

Really makes you think huh.
