“This life is what you make it. No matter what, you’re going to mess up sometimes, it’s a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you’re going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends - they’ll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they’re your true best friends. Don’t let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they’ll come and go too. And baby, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can’t give up because if you give up, you’ll never find your soul mate. You’ll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn’t mean you’re gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don’t, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life’s a beautiful thing and there’s so much to smile about.” ― Marilyn Monroe

Craig: Okay, I know you’re thinking, “What is this? Kid spends a few days in the hospital and all his problems are cured?” But I’m not. I know I’m not. I can tell this is just the beginning. I still need to face my homework, my school, my friends. My dad. But the difference between today and last Saturday is that for the first time in a while, I can look forward to the things I want to do in my life. Bike, eat, drink, talk. Ride the subway, read, read maps. Make maps, make art. Finish the Gates application. Tell my dad not to stress about it. Hug my mom. Kiss my little sister. Kiss my dad. Make out with Noelle. Make out with her more. Take her on a picnic. See a movie with her. See a movie with Aaron. Heck, see a movie with Nia. Have a party. Tell people my story. Volunteer at 3 North. Help people like Bobby. Like Muqtada. Like me. Draw more. Draw a person. Draw a naked person. Draw Noelle naked. Run, travel, swim, skip. Yeah, I know it’s lame, but, whatever. Skip anyway. Breathe… Live.
It’s Kind of a Funny Story

It takes diligence, care and time to create a beautiful rose. But, it only takes a mere minute for your fingers to rip off each petal…leaving the once beautiful flower, ugly and broken.

Whatever you do in life will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it…because nobody else will. Like when someone comes into your life and half of you says “you’re nowhere near ready,” but the other half says…”make her yours forever.

A few late nights ago a few friends and I stopped by the local Ihop for the usual 2am dining experience. After we ordered our food the waitress came by with our drinks and we noticed we never received our utensils. The waitress sincerely apologized and with a serious face I screamed “You’re Fired” and she almost started to cry. But then I smiled and said, “I’m just kidding” and all was well. Until today… My friend texted me saying he got sick last night and thinks the waitress had spit in his food. The moral of this story: Always wait till after you get your food!
