support
My friends support me through everything. Ok, that’s a lie. My REAL friends support me through everything. They don’t judge. They don’t use harsh words. They don’t hurt me. Yet somehow they still manage to give me their honest input on the situation and help me through it. That takes real talent and real love.

respectable
I want to grow up to be someone who is considered respectable. I want to be trustworthy and dependable and just be someone who is known as a person you can lean on and who is always there for you. That, to me, is a respectable person.

perfectly
I wonder if anyone’s ever really done something PERFECTLY… We use that word so lightly… It means so much more though. Completely flawless. Unspoiled. And with no history of ever being wrong. Perfect.

wishing
I kept wishing for the same thing over and over every night on the biggest, brightest wishing star, hoping one day it might finally come true. It didn’t.

mythology
We learned about mythology in 7th grade and again in 9th. But each time we were taught about it, I kept wondering if there are some people out there who still believe in Greek gods and all that?…

paperclips
I like making paperclip jewelry. It’s so fun, especially if it’s the colorful paperclips. Those are really cheap-ish, though, and they bend too easily.

optimism
Everyone always says I’m an optimistic person… I don’t know how true that is though. Only the people who know me best can see how insecure I can be at times. That means a lot to me.

typewriter
When I was younger, I used to go to church sales all the time with my mom. Once, I found an old typewriter for sale. I thought it was such a treasure. I had always wanted one. Why didn’t I just want something normal, like a doll or some crayons?

stick
Her spine was as straight as a stick as she shot up in her chair. The clap of thunder outside had awakened. She had fallen asleep on her math textbook. Again.

wrong
It’s all wrong. This cannot be happening. I swear, just yesterday my life was perfect. Just a couple hours ago I didn’t have any problems. Well I guess there has to be a cutoff point somewhere… What am I going to do?

possibility
Today, there are not a lot of possibilities for things to do. There’s several feet of snow on the ground and I feel trapped inside my over-heated house. I want to go out and make snow angels and snowmen like I did when I was little.

believer
I am a believer in the Lord almighty. That’s the first thing that came into my head when I read this. “I’m a believer, I couldn’t leave her if I tried!” That’s the second. I believe in love at first sight. That’s the third.

amazed
I was amazed at how quickly I fell for him. I was even more amazed when we managed to make it last. Usually when I fall hard and fast for someone, it doesn’t last long. It passes with the season. But this time was different. I knew that for sure. HE was different.

willow
The weeping willow’s branches brushed the grassy front lawn gently in the summer breeze. I felt pity for the tree, the tree that never ceased crying. Did it never feel happiness?

teeth
I ran my tongue across my teeth as I waited impatiently for the signal. Once I saw that sign, I would be off. And nothing would ever be the same… 3, 2, 1…

bunny
“He’s cute like a bunny.” That’s how my friends and I describe some guys. I think it works perfectly. It’s not suggestive like “he’s cuuutttteeee!” it’s more… innocent :)

transport
This word reminds me of my little brother and how he mixes up the word “transport” with the word “teleport.” According to him, we are teleporting the box to my dad’s house, not transporting it.

spike
I think I’ve already wrote about this word… Can that happen? That’s so weird… Well, I don’t like this at all… Now what can I write about? All I can focus on is what I wrote the first time I had this word… It’s like whenever you don’t want to think about something, it ends up being the only thing you can think about…

copper
The first thing I thought of when I read this word was “You’ll never catch me alive, coppers!” but then I reread it and realized the meant the metal, not the police.
I remember running around the house with my brother when we were younger and playing “cop and bad guy.” We used to scream that same thing.

closed
The door slammed closed behind me. It was over, I knew that for sure. Once the words had come out of my mouth, I realized that saying them had sacrificed my home, my peaceful life, and my relationship with my mom. Hopefully this baby could give me some of those things back.

affection
I held him close to me, closer than I’ve ever held a guy before, and gave him all my affection. We were young but very much in love and it was the most amazing feeling in the world. It felt like I wanted to never let him go, ever.

understood
And finally, after all this time of feeling so alone, I felt like I finally had someone who understood me. And not just the “me” that I pretended to be. No, that was a mask I put on for everyone else. This girl understood ME.

flakes
Our friendship slowly came undone, flaking gently, the pieces of what used to be something beautiful and amazing falling to the floor. And the worst part is that neither of us bothered to catch them on the way down.

habit
I have so many habits.. Some good, some bad. I’ve always heard it takes three days to break a habit… Or was it three weeks? I don’t remember. Either way, that’s a weird way to put it… Breaking a habit? How are you BREAKING it? Huh.

magnet
They were attracted to each other like opposite sides of a magnet. Meant to be. Fate. Everyone could see it, especially when they looked at each other with that longing look in their eyes. That’s what made it so horrible that I would want him for my own. I would ruin their perfection.

science
Science. That’s what my sister’s good at. English. That’s what I’m good at. It’s interesting how we can excel in opposite subjects… But it makes school work a lot easier because then we can help each other with the thing the other is not as good at.

killed
And then he killed him. That was it. In that split second that it took to pull the trigger, he had stolen something he could never, ever return to that man. No amount of time in prison could make up for it. No money paid could repay it. He had taken the man’s life.

duck
“DUCK!” she screamed at the top of her lungs. I ducked forward as she instructed just as the pancake-sausage wrap flew over my head and went soaring across the middle school cafeteria. Today was not going to be a good day.

market
For some reason, market reminds me of the festival of nations. We go there every year, me and my family. I love it there. I love all the foods and going around to each “country” to get a stamp on your passport.. too bad I kind of outgrew doing that…
