We come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.

Have you ever wondered which hurts the most: saying something and wishing you had not, or saying nothing, and wishing you had?

Annoying Things To Do On An Elevator1) CRACK open your briefcase or handbag, peer Inside and ask "Got enough air in there?"2) STAND silent and motionless in the corner facing the wall without getting off.3) WHEN arriving at your floor, grunt and strain to yank the doors open, then act as if you're embarrassed when they open themselves.4) GREET everyone with a warm handshake and ask him or her to call you Admiral.5) MEOW occasionally.6) STARE At another passenger for a while. Then announce in horror: "You're one of THEM" - and back away slowly7) SAY -DING at each floor.8) SAY "I wonder what all these do?" And push all the red buttons.9) MAKE explosion noises when anyone presses a button.10) STARE, grinning at another passenger for a while, then announce: "I have new socks on."11) WHEN the elevator is silent, look around and ask: "Is that your beeper?"12) TRY to make personal calls on the emergency phone.13) DRAW a little square on the floor with chalk and announce to the other passengers: "This is my personal space."14) WHEN there's only one other person in the elevator, tap them on the shoulder, then pretend it wasn't you.15) PUSH the buttons and pretend they give you a shock. Smile, and go back for more.16) ASK if you can push the button for other people but push the wrong ones.17) HOLD the doors open and say you're waiting for your friend. After a while, let the doors close and say "Hi Greg, How's your day been?"18) DROP a pen and wail until someone reaches to help pick it up, then scream: "That's mine!"19) BRING a camera and take pictures of everyone in the lift.20) PRETEND you're a flight attendant and review emergency procedures and exits with the Passengers.21) SWAT at flies that don't exist.22) CALL out "Group hug" then enforce it.

10th grade As I sat there in English class, I stared at the girl next to me. She was my so called "best friend". I stared at her long, silky hair, and wished she was mine. But she didn't notice me like that, and I knew it. After class, she walked up to me and asked me for the notes she had missed the day before and handed them to her. She said "thanks" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I wanted to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.11th grade The phone rang. On the other end, it was her. She was in tears, mumbling on and on about how her love had broke her heart. She asked me to come over because she didn't want to be alone, so I did. As I sat next to her on the sofa, I stared at her soft eyes, wishing she was mine. After 2 hours, one Drew Barrymore movie, and three bags of chips, she decided to go to sleep. She looked at me, said "thanks" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why. Senior year The day before prom she walked to my locker. My date is sick" she said; he's not going to go well, I didn't have a date, and in 7th grade, we made a promise that if neither of us had dates, we would go together just as "best friends". So we did. Prom night, after everything was over, I was standing at her front door step. I stared at her as she smiled at me and stared at me with her crystal eyes. I want her to be mine, but she isn't think of me like that, and I know it. Then she said "I had the best time, thanks!" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why. Graduation Day A day passed, then a week, then a month. Before I could blink, it was graduation day. I watched as her perfect body floated like an angel up on stage to get her diploma. I wanted her to be mine, but she didn't notice me like that, and I knew it. Before everyone went home, she came to me in her smock and hat, and cried as I hugged her. Then she lifted her head from my shoulder and said, "you're my best friend, thanks" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.A Few Years Later Now I sit in the pews of the church. That girl is getting married now. I watched her say "I do" and drive off to her new life, married to another man. I wanted her to be mine, but she didn't see me like that, and I knew it. But before she drove away, she came to me and said "you came!". She said "thanks" and kissed me on the cheek. I want to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.FuneralYears passed, I looked down at the coffin of a girl who used to be my "best friend". At the service, they read a diary entry she had wrote in her high school years. This is what it read: I stare at him wishing he was mine, but he doesn't notice me like that, and I know it. I want to tell him, I want him to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love him but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why. I wish he would tell me he loved me! `I wish I did too...` I thought to my self, and I cried.

It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.

9 Things I Hate About Everyone1. People who point at their wrist asking for the time... I know where my watch is pal, where the hell is yours? Do I point at my crotch when I ask where the toilet is?2. People who are willing to get off their a** to search the entire room for the TV remote because they refuse to walk to the TV and change the channel manually.3. When people say "Oh you just want to have your cake and eat it too". Damn Right! What good is cake if you can't eat it?4. When people say "it's always the last place you look". Of course it is. Why the hell would you keep looking after you've found it? Do people do this? Who and where are they?5. When people say while watching a film, "did ya see that?" No Loser, I paid $12 to come to the cinema and stare at the damn floor!6. People who ask "Can I ask you a question?"... Didn't give me a choice there, did ya sunshine?7. When something is 'new and improved'. Which is it? If it's new, then there has never been anything before it. If it's an improvement, then there must have been something before it, couldn't be new.8. When people say "life is short". What the hell??? Life is the longest damn thing anyone ever does!!! What can you do thats longer?9. When you are waiting for the bus and someone asks "Has the bus come yet?" If the bus came, would I be standing here???

"Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will lie under the stars and listen to your heartbeat, or will stay awake just to watch you sleep... wait for the boy who kisses your forehead, who wants to show you off to the world when you are in sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends, who thinks you' re just as pretty without makeup on. One who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares and how lucky he is to have YOU... The one who turns to his friends and says, "thats her"....
