Jar of Hearts

If you have not heard this song, go find it and take a listen. It's currently my favorite (closely followed by E.T. by Katy Perry but that's a different story)

I know I can't take one more step towards you
Cause all that's waiting is regret
And don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore
You lost the love I loved the most

I learned to live half alive; and now you want me one more time

Chorus:
And who do you think you are
Running 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are

I hear you're asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong to ever fall back in your arms

And I've learned to live half alive
And now you want me one more time

[Chorus]

Dear, it took so long just to feel alright
Remember how to put back the light in my eyes
I wish I had missed the first time that we kissed
Cause you broke all your promises
And now you're back
You don't get to get me back

[Chorus x2]

[Insert witty title here]

You have to be able to make fun of yourself of life is not going to be that interesting and you'd probably won't be as happy as those who do. I say that directly in relation to something that happened to my team in intermural softball. So if you know me, you know that I look really athletic but it's a facade. I can't catch, I run funny and I hate working out. Anyway, my team realized this quickly and placed me in right field (for those of you reading this with no concept of softball, right field is where lefties hit the ball and there are fewer lefties. The ball rarely comes over there). I am quite content standing out there watching the game from a really nice position. Well low and behold, the ball comes flying at me. Well in that moment, time slowed down and I thought: wait, the ball does not come out here! What's it doing coming this way. I literally stared as it flew over my head. I didn't even move. The guy standing at second base ran for the ball in the outfield and as he ran by he said, sarcastically: "Oh don't worry, I'll get that. You stay there." I'm pretty sure my team will make fun of me for the rest of my law school career lol
