Trying To Remember.

I remember trying to remember you.

I'm trying to remember you because memories are all that's left.

I'm trying so dang hard because I only got 8 years. 

I remember your southern accent telling me that everything was going to be okay. 

I remember dancing with spoons as microphones in the kitchen.

I remember. 

I remember your witch costume on Halloween.  

I remember you. 

I remember you being sad that I wanted to drive with dad instead of you.

I remember watching lifetime movies in your bed even though I was to young to understand them. 

I remember picking cherries from our tree.

I remember the look on your face when I told you I played kissy tag at recess. 

I remember.

I remember the day my little brother was born and I was worried cause I wouldn't be the only one. 

I remember coming home with a broken arm and you crying harder than me.

I remember asking you if you were the tooth fairy. 

I remember you planting flowers. 

I remember your smile.

I remember you told ME to smile cause I didn't want to go to kindergarten.

I remember you singing me to bed. 

I remember your gross healthy drinks you had to drink.

I remember trying one of them.

I remember you buying my friends a gumball.

I remember asking dad why you had to stay in bed forever.

I remember.

I remember.

I remember coming home one day and you weren't in bed anymore.

And I'm trying SO hard to remember these things because it was so long ago. 

And I'm sorry Nelson it wasn't a very happy post. 

But I needed to try to remember. 

Don't Delete Chain Mail

One time when I was 13 I got an email that said send to 20 people and do NOT delete or else you will have bad luck the rest of your life and you shall DIE! 

I deleted it. 

And I'm starting to think that email changed the past few years of my life.

And I m starting to think that it changed a lot considering this is my THIRD time writing this stupid prompt because I accidentally clicked cut instead of copy. 

Bad luck. 

And I'm starting to think all of this because how else do you explain it?

How else do you explain all of this.

All of the inconvenient timing of things and the accidents. 

How else do you explain that I was out of town for the only Killers concert they will have in Utah before I leave. 

Or how about that every time I go to the fridge to get milk for my cereal it's enough for a fly. 

Or if I just gave that guy a chance last year when he liked me I wouldn't pulling my hair out now cause he got a girlfriend and I like him. 

Or if I was just there on that day at that time I could have stopped my own heart from breaking. 

If I just told him the simple word no. 

Or if I just ran outside a minute earlier to hug my dad for the last time.

If I just fastened my seat belt at the age 8.

If the cancer could have waited just one more week.  

If I just if I just if I just

What if what if what if

Or if or if or if 

If i was just there on that day at that time I could have stopped my own heart from breaking.

But. 

Out of all of those unfortunate events something good came out of it. 

I didn't die. So the email was very wrong.

Beautiful as it seems

Some things seem beautiful. 

And then its swept away. 

Literally. The chair is in the ocean now. 

To go along with the post below.

How to Stay Single

Heres the thing staying single is not as easy as it looks, it really takes some skill. So let me share my knowledge with you.

First off. Don't get ready for the day! It really does work. Just result to that comfortable aeropostale sweatshirt of yours and you do not even have to stress about boys coming your way. Oh and something to really throw those boys off.. Who needs deoderant anyways? Forget it. The stench is real.

Second. Tell your crush that you like him! Obviously hard to get is the thing to do now so.. DONT DO IT.

Third.  Eat as much as you can. All the time! Bring your food to the commons and just eat. East like your life depends on it.

Because it does.

Oh. If you reallllllly want to stay single eat nachos. Nachos is the best food. Especially the ones from Harts. And don't bring napkins.

Fourth. Try tripping over everything. Like maybe put a pair of shoes right in front of your face JUST to make yourself look like your the most coordinated person in the room. BAM single right there.

Fifth.Be really nice to them because who likes nice girls anyways? Cough Cough.

Sixth of all. The most IMPORTANT step. Tell really really stupid jokes! And just to top the cake laugh at them every single time you tell them.

THE END. YOUR SINGLE FOR LIFE.

This made me laugh.

Use these arguing techniques next time you fight with someone.
