    Everyday buries me deeper. . .
    She said, "All I'll ever mean is 'I love you.'" Sometimes she wanted to cut out her stupid heart and give it to him, because she meant it that much...

    Stayed home from school today. Well, part of the day. Went to school for lunch, 5th, and 6th. Then went to little sister's basketball game. They lost by 2. It was a good game, I guess.

    RANDOM QUESTION: Do you think 18 is too young to wed, too young to know what love is? Can't love pay the rent?

    ANSWER: Yes, it is too young to wed, no it isn't too young to know what love is, and love alone cannot pay the rent. . . .

    Question: Is love worth the risks?

Warning: this may be a long comment.

I've so been in the same situation your in. In fact, it's this predicament that ended me and kelly's relationship (not saying thats going to happen to you, but it's true.) Ask anyone, we so had the perfect relationship, and early on we felt made for each other (we were friends for years before we started dating, and I think we even felt like that then)... something I still feel to this day. Now, it was love. It doesn't matter how old or young or whatever, if you feel love you know it ... and the thing with young love is that, you probably won't experience anything like it again. It has this sense of naive-ness, this pure sense to it. And kelly and I had it. And we loved each other so much, and just wanted to get married and move on. But then there were things that happened ... the reality setting in that this may be the only person you can ever be with. Some are comfortable with it, others aren't ... eventually, kelly wasn't comfortable with it. And he broke my heart cause of it, and the acts that came from that drive to want to be free again. 18 is defnitely a little to young to completely settle down, cause there are alot of things that are going to be coming ahead of the both of you, and it's easy to say now that it will always work, but obstacles will come. I think it'd easier personally to really settle down ... when your life in general feels that way. For everyone that's different. Love is always a great reason for taking risks. Risks are always being taken in the name of love, so yeah it may just be worth it. This feeling of doubt though doesn't mean in the least bit your falling out of love, but I guess you could say, it's just taking care of yourself first and watching for the one you really do love:Matt. Love can't pay the rent, but it can keep you warm in those tough times. To pay the rent, get a education/job first, then see about that commmitment. Kelly and I had alot of this planned out, and then the bomb dropped. Again, this is not to say that this is going to happen to you, but it's just to say, that right now, while you mean these things in your heart, that you'll always love Matt, and your going to marry him, and all that stuff, while your saying this stuff NOW, and mean it with all your heart, your speaking for the FUTURE, a future that you right now can honestly be said is uncertain, regardless of how much we wish we could say we have it planned, fact is it's not. It's a mistake that kelly and I made (speaking way too soon), cause when it was over, I felt like I lost my life, and for him, I think it felt insane too, cause now where to we go from here?

Though we're apart, again this isn't to say fate hasn't got something up it's sleeves. ;)

Moral of the story, take care of yourself, follow your heart, do what's best, and honestly don't stress too much over it now ... cause you got your whole life ahead of you. While it's better to regret something you did rather then somehting you didn't do, it's sometimes better to let time takes it's course and just sit back and enjoy what you have now. You have matt, your in love, bask in that, because it's something people search their whole lives for, and you found it in him.

It's something I need to learn to do too.

XOXXO Miss C.

nope. I think if you wanna get married at 18, go ahead. my grandma eloped after 13 days of knowing my grandpa and she was 19. There were 3 other couples that had been together for forever and were like highs chool sweethearts. They all got divorced, cept my grandparents, and they would still be together, but he died of cancer....

i've known everett for less than 2 months, and i wanna marry him. in my heart, i know i'd be totally happy and that's all i care about. don't let anyone influence you.... ok?

Hey laura, I totally agree with you ... but I'm mostly just saying be careful. You follow your heart, but know too that nothing has to be rushed really. But then everyones different, I'm merely saying what I went through ... that's not to say thats going to happen to everyone ... like, look at your grand parents, that's freakin awesome.

Just do what you feel is right. Someone special once told me "if your not 100% sure about something, don't do it". I think that's very good advice. Laura, is your totally sure about everette then go for it and I wish you nothing but the best, cause you deserve that, and it's good you found someone. Yeah for you!!!

The best thing anyone can do for themselves is to just follow your own heart. People can give you all the opinion and advice in the world, but what it comes down to is what you feel is right. No one can decide that for anyone else.

Love you sept. XOXXO Miss C.

I don't know if it's just me, but I think that last comment I made was a little on the bitchy side ... not my intentions, so sorry if it came off like that.

Ok, I'm going to shut up now. I've said enough.
