He heals the brokenhearted
and bandages their wounds.
He counts the stars
and calls them all by name.

Looking for Alaska by John Green

 Absolutely mind blowing book. I loved it. John Green is definitely one of my favorite authors. There were so many memorable quotes in the book. The characters were memorable and the setting sang out fun, friendship, love, and heartache. Their adventures made you want to live life out loud. It definitely made you think of the Great Perhaps. But that's all life is, isn't it? A Great Perhaps. A maybe. A sometimes. A full out blown adventure. Maybe I have a romanticized view of the world.. but it's so much better than being sad and gloomy. It makes me love and totally have an appetite for living. And that's what makes me different. I love to read and lose myself in a story. I like to sing and dance around my room. I like to hang out with my friends and cause mischief. But in Looking for Alaska... Its shows that friends, they really are all you have sometimes. Sometimes its good  to bend the rules and have fun. You only live once, live it up! I love this book. Truly. It's just such a good read. It made me cry. And it made me laugh and want to go out. It showed me how having friends, real ones, is. I am truly always looking for my inner Alaska. ♥

Being Somebody.

 You always wonder what it take for someone to notice you. You feel small and unimportant. But the thing is, it's not about how much money you have, where you've been, or how long it'll take to get there. The important part is have you worked hard for what you have, where you're going, and enjoying the ride on the way there. Being proud of who you are. To me, just shining and being happy through the worst of circumstances.. that is what makes your stronger. I think scars are beautiful. Both emotional and physical, because they are the things that you learn and hurt from. They make you who you are. People are always saying that to be somebody is to be happy. Being happy is a state of being. If you want to be happy, then be. That's all it takes. You think you have to be some extravagant human being and be impossibly good looking.. what ever happened to loving who you are? NO ONE is perfect. We all have our imperfections. But isn't it those same "imperfections" that make us beautiful and unique? I think so. EVERYONE is beautiful in their own way. There is good to everyone. I know this for a fact. Sometimes you have to just dig a little deeper to find it.. but it's definitely there. So on the note of being somebody? Being YOURSELF, that's being somebody.
