Happy with problems.

Despite all of the drama going on around me, involving almost everyone close to me besides the girls, I've realized how proud I am of me and Steven. We started our relationship good, but after a while, it was filled with drama, people got involved, and everything went crappy. We've learned not to listen, and we're a lot better.
But there's a line you have to make.
When you bend over backwards, and change yourself, for a boyfriend or girlfriend, it's getting to be too much.
There's a couple relationships in particular that are really just pissing me off lately, but that's not the point.
The point is that you do NOT need to change for a relationship. Friendship, or otherwise.
If you're a person I'm talking about and you're reading this, I'm sorry, but it's true. You don't need to change. You don't need to be someone you're not. You need to be YOU, not what they want.
Anyways, all of this going on is really making me realize that I have an amazing relationship, wonderful, real friends, and we don't have to change for anyone. <3 If we have a disagreement, we talk. We don't talk behind each other's backs. We don't yell at them. We talk.
That's why I love my friends.
That's why I love my boyfriend.
That's why I'm happy, despite all of the drama around me. :)

Love you all!
-Brooke

woo! high five for friday. :-)

1. Reading the questions on my 43 question long questionnaire from Steven's cousin Megan. They're so great.
Examples::
1. Who is your best friend?
2. Who is your best friend's best friend?
3. Who is your best friend's best friend's cousin?
4. Have you ever been to outer space and seen an alien? If so, please draw a picture below.
5. I am eating Cheez-Its.
6. Why was that not a question?
Yeah, she's a strange girl. But she's pretty cool (:

2. Hanging out with my wonderful boyfriend and Ashleigh yesterday :-)

3. Finishing my exam review for one of my classes 8 days before it's due :D

4. Turning in all of my missing work today! :D

5. Talking non-stop about someone that you know a friend of yours dated, but that friend won't admit it, so you just talk non-stop about them. ;-)

ah, freshmen.

So normally, I hate freshmen.
HATE them.
with a deep, burning hatred.

butttttt
There's actually quite a few I like now. :-)

My Jayme! She's adorable and I've known her for three years and she's super sweet (:
Alan, my best friend's brother.
Saige and Tessa, two girls from the journalism class that's in our third hour.
Megan and Katie, my boyfriend's cousins.

It's really shocking that I actually like them, because almost all of the other freshmen...
I swear sometimes, they could be Satan's spawn.

So I started this year off as 'I hate freshmen, I hate freshmen, I hate freshmen. They get worse every year.'

And the last part is true.

But I'm finding more and more throughout the year that I like. :-).... Even if Megan did write me a 43 question long questionnaire ;-)

So yes, that is all.

Moral of the story: I no longer hate freshmen, thanks to the people up there ^^^ :-)

one word.

{link-up to this blog}

This link-up is to get to know each other :-)

It's one word to describe...

me:: crazy.
I swear to you, I may be certifiably insane. ;)

my life:: blessed.
I have a great family, great friends, a great boyfriend, and God <3

my love:: strong.
People may say teenagers don't know what love is; they're wrong. This love is real, and it's amazing. <3

my body:: alright.
I'm not one of those teenage girls who think "I'm fattt" every two seconds. I don't.

my cooking:: non-existant. ;)
I don't cook, I don't like to cook... Eating... That's a different story (;

my career:: future.
I don't technically have a career yet, but I have plans for the future. :)

my hobby:: reading.
I love reading! It's so great. {the Hunger Games movie comes out in one month and two days!!}

my style:: plain.
I wear skinny jeans, a t-shirt, my North Face, and my boots/Vans every day, without fail. :)

my blog:: "pretty."
It's in quotes, because I asked my best friend :-)

my home:: hectic.
mom and me at one house. dad, stepmom, 6 year old sister, and me at the other.
