When life gives u lemons, make lemonade. Then, throw it in the face of the person who should've gotten you the oranges you orginally asked for.

What we do is determined by what we are. What we are is determined by what we think. What we think is determined by what we experience. What we experience is determined by what we are exposed to and what we do with that exposure.
(MIKE VANCE and DIANE DEACON)

Life is like a book with many different chapters. Some tell of tragedy, others of triumph. Some chapters are dull and ordinary, others intense and exciting. The key to being a success in life is to never stop on a difficult page, to never quit on a tough chapter. Champions have the courage to keep turning the pages because they know a better chapter lies ahead.
(RICH RUFFALO)

Because you're able to do it and because you have the right to do it, doesn't mean it's right to do it.
(Dr.LAURA SCHLESSINGER)

We are born with our eyes closed and our mouths open, and we spend our whole lives trying to reverse that mistake of nature.
(DALE E.TURNER)

You can have anything you want if you want it desperately enough. You must want it with an inner exuberance that erupts through the skin and joins the energy that created the world.
(SHEILAH GRAHAM)

We all have the ability. The difference is how we use it.
(STEVIE WONDER)

Everything is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Every great mistake has a halfway moment, a split second when it can be recalled and perhaps remedied.

One person can make a difference and every person should try.

The one thing worse than being alone is not being alone and wishing you were.

Real difficulties can be overcome, it is only the imaginary ones that are unconquerable.
(THEODORE N.VAIL)

The goal in marriage is not to think alike, but to think together.
(ROBERT C. DODDS)

Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not, but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.
(EPICURUS)

When you look in the mirror, you are looking at the problem, but remember, you are also looking at the solution.

Live your life, so you don't have to hide your diary.

Dream what you dare to dream. Go where you want to go. Be what you want to be.
(CALVIN COOLIDGE)

The first thing of importance is to have confidence in yourself, in your abilities.
(KATHARINE GIBBS)

Become a 'possibilitarian'. No matter how dark things seem to be or actually are, raise your sights and see the possibilities-always see them, for they are always there.
(NORMAN VINCENT PEALE)

DAVID COPPERFIELD just might be the greatest magician and illusionist of all time. He is definitely a legend in his own time. Here are some of his most inspiring quotes...
'The easiest thing in the world is to come up with an excuse not to do something. I found that the most important thing in life is to stop saying,'I wish,' and to start saying,'I will.'
'Before there can be wonders, there must be wonder.'
'Whenever I pursued my dreams, I discovered something astonishing-I discovered myself. My secret has been to consider nothing impossible. Then to treat possibilities as probabilities.'
'Passion is everything.'
'I learned that there were two ways I could live my life: following my dreams or doing something else. Dreams aren't a matter of chance, but a matter of choice. When I dream, I believe I am rehearsing my future.'

Miracles do not happen in contradiction to nature, but only in contradiction to that which is known to us of nature.
(SAINT AUGUSTINE)

The world is composed of givers and takers... the takers may eat better, but the givers sleep better.

Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired.
(ROBERT FROST)

Love is a fruit in season at all times and within reach of every hand.
(MOTHER TERESA)

There is this kid in my gym class who I'm really diggin, like he's really cute and sweet but every time I'm near a guy I like I get nervous and can't talk to them. However, my friend is such a doll and talks to him for me so today she told him me and my other friend are going to be on facebook and that he should go on so I can talk to him and he said "I will most definitely be on" then she said good, she's afraid to talk to you in person because you'll think she's weird and he said "no, I wouldn't at all, I think it's cute that she's shy, we're alike in that way." and my friend said yeaa but I'll get her to talk to you soon and he said "Good, I really want her to talk to me." sooo, I gather that he's kinda diggin me too, right? Now, what do I do from here? I know the obvious is to talk to him but what do I say? I feel like it'll be weird because he knows I like him. I also see him one period a day which is gym, at the beginning of the period, he's hackysacking with friends then they have to go in the locker room and change, then he goes to his squad and I go to mine.. so I don't see him, that's also a factor. Please help. I'm in such a rut. Thanks. (link)
Well you could first start talking to him on facebook or online,get to know him there, ask him questions about him, but not in like an interrogating way, just hold a normal friendly conversation, and see what you have in common. Its basically a better way to first meet someone and set your real first impression, because sometimes when you see someone face to face and your shy, so things are awkward, so you set the wrong impression and stuff.

And yes he sounds like he's interested too, i'm not sure if he likes you with the meaning of like, cause he doesn't know you yet, and actually you don't know him either yet, so don't skip to conclusions, sometimes when you actually get closer to someone its different than when knowing him from a distance.

And your friend didn't actually tell him that you like him, she just indirectly said it, so that could mean that you just want to be friends but your shy, afraid to take the first move.
And hey, eventually you will have to take the first move, and it will be hard, and your gonna blush and your face is just gonna be all red, and your gonna say stupid things lol but it happens, and i bet he'll do the same lol, but eventually you'll have to do it, and it will just be once, and you never know, sometimes it goes well hehe that's why its better if you talk online first, so that at least you'd know each other in someway.

And about not seeing him in school, maybe when you talk online, you'd set a date or like a time where you could hang out, maybe after school or at a free time you both have, so you'd be able to hang out.

Hope i helped, please be free to contact me if you need anything else. Best of luck :D
