In the Words of a Guy...

So I was on the phone the other night to this guy, and we were talking about how guys see girls and what they call 'em and stuff. This is what I learned...

If a guy says a girl is pretty, he's talking about her face.
If he says she's hot, he's talking about her body.
If he says she's beautiful, he's talking about her heart.

Isn't that SO sweet? I got little goosebumps. Yeah, I know, the whole hopeless romantic thing kicks in here. HOWEVER, I HOPE that one of these fine days ALL of us girls find the perfect guy who looks past the outside to the HEART, where it really counts, and calls US beautiful.

Early Morning Wisdom

"Never regret something that once made you smile"
~Abbs, at about 2:30 a.m.

I'll Be There For You

I'll be there for you

These five words I swear to you

When you breathe I want to be the air for you

I'll be there for you

I'd live and I'd die for you

Steal the sun from the sky for you

Words can't say what a love can do

I'll be there for you

After reading Scarlett's post about friendship, this song came to mind. While this one is more about romantical friendship, one can draw from it the basic idea that friends are there for you and will do anything that they can for you. I went camping with some of my best friends last weekend and made some memories that I'll never forget. Friends are for sure up there in the list of most important things in life!!

The Inspiration

Chuck has inspired me in our debate about oysters. He maintains that, "Hearts break and heal. But oyster shells are eternal! " At my rather astonished response, he replied, "Have you ever heard of a oyster shell dying, Erika?" To this I could only say, "Can't say I have Chuck, but can't say i've heard of one LIVING, either!!" Chuck, now really getting into it all, wondered, "So then are oysters the undead?" That, my friends, is the question. I'd say oysters are like rocks, not dead but not alive, right?

Hmm...

Ugh, I'm having major bloggers block here. I can't think of anything to write about!! Ideas at all guys?

When There Was Me and You

It's funny when you find yourself
Looking from the outside
I'm standing here but all I want
Is to be over there
Why did I let myself believe
Miracles could happen
Cause now I have to pretend
That I don't really care

I thought you were my fairytale
A dream when I'm not sleeping
A wish upon a star
Thats coming true
But everybody else could tell
That I confused my feelings with the truth
When there was me and you

I swore I knew the melody
That I heard you singing
And when you smiled
You made me feel
Like I could sing along
But then you went and changed the words
Now my heart is empty
I'm only left with used-to-be's
Once upon a song

Now I know your not a fairytale
And dreams were meant for sleeping
And wishes on a star
Just don't come true
Cause now even I tell
That I confused my feelings with the truth
Cause I liked the view
When there was me and you

I can't believe that
I could be so blind
It's like you were floating
While I was falling
And I didn't mind

Cause I liked the view
Thought you felt it too
When there was me and you
