  1. trying to figure out what the heck is going on in the world and in my life right now. tough job, ain’t it? we all wish we could figure everything out, but we can’t. so we let it go & move on. but if we just let everything ride and hope for the best, what’s the use in being able to figure anything out at all? we can just sit & wait together then i guess.

    figures.

  2. Figures come in all different shapes and sizes. We are all different, but in the end it doesn’t matter, only that we leave something and achieve sommething precious behind on this earth

  3. She took another drink from the glass of complimentairy goon, white and warm it made her feel exhausted. All around the atrists paintings of nude women bulged from the walls. It was time to go, it was long past time to go, she knew that when the artist cought her eye and walked over leaving whatever conversation he might have had in a tiolet bowl somewhere.

    “Nice paintings, sorry i have to leave I have work to do”
    “Give me a call sometime we should catch up, I am always looking for new models, you have a nice figure”

  4. Go figure! it’s such a condescending phrase isn’t it? It’s like saying “I just said something cool, but you won’t get it at first, you need to sit and analyse to figure it out…coz i’m soooo smart”. Go figure!

  5. It figures…there isn’t anything that I can really do to make myself sleepy, which is why I am on this site at night past 1:30 in the morning watching Scrubs, doing laundry, and bopping around without a clue to what I am really doing.

  8. “Figuratively speaking” She said.

    “Figuratively speaking it’s the end of the world?” I asked

    “Yes, I was speaking figuratively… Did you think I wasn’t?” She asked.

    “Yeah… never mind, I just thought you were talking about that giant asteroid hurtling toward us, sorry.”

    “Oh, yeah… no.”

  9. Figure. Go figure. Try to figure it out. If you can’t figure it out then give up? To figure is to think about it. Figure our what you want in life. A figure can be a beautiful thing. Don’t worry about your figure. Artists like to look at naked figures.

  10. Go figure. This is such an awkward situation ughghgh.

  11. I figure there’s somethin wrong with me. It’s like I can’t stop st-stumbling… on these websites. I’m supposed to be writing a philosophy essay but I really just don’t feel like it. What should I do? I really need to figure out a way to

  12. I saw a figure in the distance. I wonder who it is. I’m nervous. They turn. I smile. They don’t. Awkwaaaaaaard. I turn away. They do the same. Life continues. I wonder who they were?

  14. My teacher told me to draw a figure on my paper. I asked her what she meant. She couldn’t explain it too well.

    So I drew a heart. She asked me what I meant by it. I told her I couldn’t explain it too well.

  15. Figure. The way I figure it (figure of speech), the way you react to emotions can certainly be controlled. You can’t help how you feel but you can help how you react or act on the way you feel. I figured this out earlier. I hate mathematical figures.

  17. the figure loomed in the darkness like smoke that came out of the sewage. his steps were quiet and well timed. nobody knew who he was but he was always there. just watching. waiting.

  18. I spent a lot of time in that dusty old antique shop in my youth. I would stop by on the way home from school just to look through the artifacts of lives I had no right to know. Those little figures and keepsakes told stories greater and grander than any book, more vivid than any film or comic.

  19. “How do you figure?” Caoimhe and Caid were currently arguing about whether it was going to be harder on her or him while they were apart.

    “I’m having really difficult physical work outs.”

    “You would have those even if you were still at home.”

    “But see at home I have you.”

    “Yes, whereas I am undergoing mind boggling difficult academic feats.”

    “Oh are you now?”

    “Yes.”

    “Really?”

    “Yes.”

  20. I’ve already had the word to think about, but figure can lead into imagine. Imagine you’re where you are right now, but a figure appears in front of you. It’s an angel and he merely wants to show you what it’s like to fly. Soar up through your ceiling and fly with him, seeing the wonders of the world. This is how I fall asleep at night.

  21. a shape. a beautiful body. to analyze something. an object.

  22. Go figure. It’s a figure of speech. It has little to do with your figure. Which is that hour glass shape you hope you can hold onto past 30. Figure it out. Figures are not for everyone. Some people just aren’t good at math. Go Figure.

  23. Figure you have twenty minutes to think about your life.. To really PLAN it out, you know? What would you think about? Would you remember that time when you were younger and you scraped your knee and think about how you want to prevent things like that? Or would you think about how you want to change the world for the better? The world is full of possibilities. You need to find your passion.

  24. figure it out. girls are worried about it. shape, something that is tied to beauty but isnt really a part of it. i figure this is what figure is about, beside being questionable and unsure.

  25. Go figure. Figure skate. Figure out how to figure skate. When I figure something out I like to organize it. Sometimes when I figure something out it makes me feel worse. I don’t understand it always. I know God knows how to figure things out. Yay. I do not have to worry about figures – or figure skating. I don’t know how to figure skate.

  26. I figured it out. After a long time of people telling me that I would end up better in the long run. Today it hit me. It will turn out exactly how I make it turn out. My dad making me stay at a lonely, empty campus gave me the opportunity to go to New York next week. With karma, it’s impossible to say that things won’t come around.

  27. A figure is an object or a imaginary thing that you see. A figure can also be recognized as the outline or silhouette of something. The word figure is usually used to describe something erie like something you cant quite make out.

  28. “you wish you had a figure like mine.”
    she said it like it was supposed to hurt.
    but it’s a lie.
    & she knows it.
    i told her so.
    nobody’d ever stood up to her that way.
    she’s that girl.
    well, used to be.
    i got the guy.
    she got the figure.
    oh wait, i’ve got that too.

  29. figure. shape. numbers. what “it all” amounts up to. a mass of something shoved into a casing, and what comes out when it’s all filled in, we call that a “figure.” funny. makes me think of hot dogs. and balloon animals.

  30. Go figure. Everyone’s gone and I’m all alone. Not in a lonely way. More in a bored way. My co-workers took the day off. People are in meetings. And I’m surrounded by people who could care less about my day. Way to go Thursday. But hey! Tomorrow is Friday! And then it’ll be Monday again . . . go figure.

    Love
    Forget
    Go where you are taken
    Make no choices
    Simply be
    He has the answers
    …. maybe
    Trust and Trust and Love and Trust
    Faith Faith Faith
    Fall
    Cold
    But why?
    Believe
    And never expect

  32. Does this figure fit, I think to myself I’m in the wrong figure.

    do we ever know?
    how do you figure.

  33. body shape, action doll, general form of something. You have a nice figure. Can I play with your action figure. Figure something out.

  34. She watched the water drip, slowly down the tree branches outside her window. A simple thing, the rain. Simple, yet important. Such tiny things cumulating to give life…someday she’ll figure it out.

  35. My body image. being fat. Not looking good. Wanting to make myself better. Trying on clothes. Hoping that one day I’ll look in the mirror and see a figure I love and will be happy with.

  36. Figure it out, the figures of a woman, the figures of the world. Figures are numbers, and figures are standards, but is my figure up to your standards? Figuring out what needs to be figured out without using numbers and figures figures out to be much harder to figure out then I ever thought it would be. That figures…

  37. Doing figure 8s in these ice skates – or was it all just a memory?
    I’m slashing across the rink like I did a lifetime ago in Germany.
    Remind me why I’m here again – pretending that I’m happy.
    When nothing is on my mind and there is emptiness in my heart.

  38. Why is it that women always worry about their figures? You were born a certain way, so just accept it and move on. Why constantly try to fit what society establishes as the “perfect” figure? There is no such thing. Trying to search for this ideal leads to harship and pain, depression and discomfort.

  39. Stare across the dark blue vast
    to the other side of the bay
    and yonder on the farther shore
    a figure, draped in soft ash gray.

    A mournful cry sweeps over
    on the gentle, summer breeze
    and echoes all around the park
    as it whispers through the trees

    The leaves begin to fall with speed
    flying from the nearby branches
    green gold yellow red and brown
    how quickly now the time advances

    A shiver rustles through the grass
    and chases off the sun and warm
    night rapidly begins to fall
    as tiny icy crystals form

    The shore-bound figure turns dark
    as the biting wind begins to cry
    turn your back to cold white flakes
    that cascade as glitter from the sky

    A faint glow lights the shore again
    as dark and cold begin to fade
    color returns slowly to the horizon
    where that constant figure swayed

    Glance once more toward the bay
    Squint across the fading black
    there on the bright’ning horizon
    A soft pink figure smiles back

  40. After, I figured it out. I figured out how you knew anyone couldn’t understand, but that one day they would. My day had already come and gone; I just hadn’t realized it. That is, until it came back.
