Ponder this...WHAT if...just IF...you were REALLY...
I have a knack for ALWAYS thinking that I am the bad person…that I am in the wrong… and that I am the reason things fail. (and many men have a knack for stepping out each reason why this is true…every thing that I lack or that they dislike that has apparantly driven them away).

1000xpm:
Last year I forewent a Best albums list and focused more on the individual songs of ‘09 that stuck close to me through the year. While I still plan to revisit some of my favorite tracks of 2010, these best album lists are admittedly quite fun and do a solid job of encapsulating what a great year…
SPOON! AGREE! I have seriously listened to this album 10 times AT LEAST this...

I’ve always been pretty annoyed by the way people refer to eating disorders with these cutesy little names. I just imagine some daft girl being like, “Brb going ana for a week xoxo!” and it makes me want to vomit.

When things in my life spin out of control, I turn to the only thing that I have ever been able to control, my appearance. When I can’t control even that, I feel ashamed and like a failure. ...
