This is perfect.

I want to watch so many different things right now.
Balto, London Boulevard, and the entirety of True Blood are at the top of that list.
I don’t even know how this happens.

Don’t be a stranger.

This line always makes me laugh!

Cleaned up the back room and now, finally, have space to breathe, work, and write.
Let’s get this shit going, shall we?

The Middle Ages was a very exciting time in Europe.

So many homes to be had!
Sometime in the middle of last Wednesday, a couple of friends and I realized we miraculously had Friday, Saturday, and Sunday off work. A hotel was promptly booked and we spent the weekend in Orange County.
I was born and raised in Costa Mesa until age eleven, and have been back a handful of times since moving to northern California. With how quickly this past weekend trip was planned, I didn’t really have any time to think about the massive dose of nostalgia that would hit when I got back to my old hometown, but damn, did it hit hard. Now I kind of just want to relocate to Newport or Huntington Beach and forget the rest of the world exists.
That’s not entirely true, since I love so many places in the world, want to see so many more, and am still mired in the process of applying for dual citizenship. However, if I’m ever lucky enough to have my love of writing pay off in a very literal way, I’ma buy myself something on the beach.

No one, and I mean no one deserves this.
don’t care if your a bieber, hipster, one direction, kardashian, janoskian blog. you all need to watch this and reblog it
this video deserves a billion notes so please stop scrolling, watch and reblog !
This should be on every blog. No one deserves this. I seriously cried, breaks my heart this goes on
If you don’t reblog this, you have no heart. NO ONE should have to go through extreme bullying
Forever reblog
): what the FUCK is wrong with the world. every single one of my followers should reblog this.
This hits so close to home. That boy was only 11 when he took his life. I can’t imagine losing my 11-year-old brother that way. It’s just so awful.
i just balled. this is really ridiculous. no one deserves to be treated like that. everyone has a purpose. theres no reason that someone should think that they can treat someone like that. EVERYONE BETTER REBLOG THIS!
This gave me chills. Never, in a million years, Will bullying ever by acceptable. Ever.
i got chills omg
I saw his parents on Ellen, you think the movie trailor is chilling? try actually seeing them talk about it. it was horrible.
I dropped out of school because I was bullied. This should be mandatory for everyone to see. Nobody really knows what its like to feel that way. I had to go though so much counseling and rehab to recover from it. I hope everyone stops, watches, and reblogs this video. Because this is important. One day YOUR kids are going to grow up into this world, don’t you want to fix it?
Growing up in Boston I was bullied early on but my older brother stepped in time and time again. He didn’t just step in for me, he was the older kid that would regulate on bullies without batting an eyelash. He was like a super hero to us. It made us empowered. He showed us we didn’t have to take their shit. Kids eventually stopped bullying us because we didn’t take it and we stood up for ourselves and when necessary fought back.
One day, a couple of the bullies waited for him at the bus stop with baseball bats. I was out sick that day and wasn’t on the bus with him. 6 kids with baseball bats beat my brother so bad he was unrecognizable to my mother and father. You couldn’t see his eyes because they were swollen shut so badly. A nearby crossing guard is the reason my brother is alive today.
My brother knew precisely who it was that jumped him. He didn’t tell the police. He didn’t tell my parents. He didn’t tell anyone. He healed up and he chose his time and he went medieval on their asses one by one. He never stood for people preying on the weak and became a hero to all of us in the neighborhood growing up. It taught us younger kids to stick together, to help each other other.
Maybe his methods aren’t what you can teach kids today, as far as exacting his own revenge and getting justice - but you can teach other kids to not stand idly by and let other kids bully other kids. You can teach kids to not stand for it and not allow others to be victimized. You can teach that.
I hear older people say “Back in my day it was just as bad, you just dealt with it”. Bullshit. Back in your day, after school you didn’t go home and logon to your computer only to have bullying be in your face on Facebook, in email, on instant messengers, on your cellphone.
Back in my day, I don’t know what I would have done without my brother. I’m one of the lucky ones.

Fucking stoked. Baz Luhrmann is either love it or hate it, and I’m not gonna lie, the trailer’s got me thinking I might love this as much as Romeo + Juliet.

"Robb was basically seduced by a college entrance application essay."As far as favorite subject lines from the IMDB forums go, “Jon Snow hates spooning” has officially been replaced.
