&quot;Close your eyes, and keep your mind wide open&quot; -Bridge to Terabithia<br /> &quot;If I&#039;ve learned anything, it&#039;s that my mascara isn&#039;t waterproof.&quot; -Sammie Jameston (Mascara Isn&#039;t Waterproof)<br /> &quot;When I say I love you. You say you don&#039;t deserve it. When I say I need you . You say I deserve someone better, When I say my life is better with you. You say I don&#039;t know any better. But when I kiss you, you say I love you, When I have to go, you say I need you. When I am with you, you know, that there is no better feeling then our love coming together and that is something we both deserve.&quot;
