Sunflowers are the best flower.
All other flowers are so pretty and dainty. You can easily snap their stems without even meaning to. Some have thorns, and no matter how pretty they are, prick your finger on one of those thorns and you’ll want to fling that pretty little thing to the ground and stomp on it.

Have you ever liked someone so much you kind of just get tried of them?
Like you don’t even want to see their face because it’s exhausting.
You’re just like…no. Go away. Go get married or something because no one cares.

I have made that mug cake from Tumblr in the past.
It is disgusting.
Please don’t bother.
Just take five minutes more to mix together a cake mix and make yourself wait 20 minutes for it to bake, if you really want cake that badly.

My guy friend literally came over to my house to wake me up to go to the GYM
who does that
he wants ur vagina
That’s cute.
But yeah who does that. :P
If one of my guy friends did that, I’d kill him.

It would be complicated.

you know, i’m a raging lesbian and i was never distracted by what other girls in my classes were wearing in high school. this is a male problem, not an “attracted to women” problem.
This is an “inability to respect women” problem.
Which is a male problem.
