&quot;Whatever happened to chivalry? Does it only exist in 80&#039;s movies? I want John Cusack holding a boombox outside my window. I wanna ride off on a lawnmower with Patrick Dempsey. I want Jake from Sixteen Candles waiting outside the church for me. I want Judd Nelson thrusting his fist into the air because he knows he got me. Just once I want my life to be like an 80&#039;s movie, preferably one with a really awesome musical number for no apparent reason. But no, no, John Hughes did not direct my life.&quot;

&quot;... And once you lose yourself, You have two choices: Find the person you used to be... or lose that person completly.&quot;~ Brooke Davis<br /> <br /> &quot;Happiness is like a butterfly; the more you chase it, the more it eludes you, but if you turn your attention to others things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder.&quot; ~ Thoreau<br /> <br /> <br /> ...&quot;Just when the catipillar thought the world was over; it became a butterfly&quot; ~ Anonymous<br /> <br /> &quot;Imperfection is beauty. Madness is genius. &amp; it&#039;s better to be absolutly ridiculous than absolutly stupid.&quot; ~ Marilyn Moroe
