Today’s been a day where I just want to sit in the passenger’s seat and go for a long car ride. And come home to lay in bed, watch a movie, and cuddle. I’m flipping through channels on the tv and nothing is fulfilling my mood. The people who I want to surround myself with are too far away. Nothing’s wrong. It’s just today’s lack of responsibility and the...
A Victim Treats His Mugger Right

Check it out.
Random update: I spent most of the weekend working. I managed to get away on Saturday…I went to NIU again to visit my friends. It will probably become my second home over the next few months, until they graduate. Woke up this morning to find that my macbook is broken. It was working last night, so that’s aggravating. So despite rarely being home, this is yet another reason why I...

I looked through these photos, trying to decide which ones to erase, which ones I won’t mind getting rid of. What I noticed was this feeling like heartbreak, but something more bitter. I can remember these specific moments in time, but it’s almost like I don’t know the people trapped there. I recognize the faces, but I can’t see the soul anymore. Most of my once-good...

Word of advice: If you’re going to talk shit about someone on Facebook, make sure you delete the status before you send them a friend request. Good job, guy. Day one of knowing you and you haven’t made a very good impression.

WatchI’ve always hated my voice (talking and otherwise) because I sound like a 5 year old and my voice was once compared to Amanda Bynes. I recorded this several months ago when I became obsessed with this song. It’s 9 seconds long. 9 seconds of a song that I messed up on so I stopped recording. No one has ever heard me sing. Besides for my choir teacher in 6th grade, twice. My point of...

1. You can be totally in love with someone but be in a relationship which doesn’t suit you. Get out of it, there are over 6 billion people in the world, there is a functional relationship for everyone.
2. When you’re a teenager, you think you know everything. You don’t. I’m 23 and I don’t know…

So I worked noon-9pm today. Came home and worked for 3 more hours. Not because I had to, but because I wanted to. Oh. I guess that’s a good thing.

So I don’t think I’ve mentioned this on here yet, but I recently started working at my friend’s music store/venues. In the past I would occasionally help him out with things or work the door at a show, but nothing really “permanent”. However, I just started booking shows and I’ve been helping to get things in order with the store (since he just opened a new...

I have a really obsessive personality. When I meet new people that interest me, my mind obsesses over them. I want to know about all of their little details, the secrets, the past, their dreams, sorrows, and inspirations. This goes for friendships and otherwise. I wish I could explain why this happens. Most times, I wish I could stop it but I can’t. New faces, new stories…they’re...

Isn’t replacing someone old with someone new the strangest thing?
Everything you’ve built up in the past is completely wiped away and you have to start over, even if you don’t want to. Even if you’re tired because, let’s be honest, starting over is a lot of work. It’s like all the while you…

You know in the heat of the moment, I said some things I didn’t mean. Most of them I probably did. I can’t remember anymore. Either way, I’m sorry. Despite it all, I still wish you happiness. Good luck.

Just an FYI, I changed my url back to “laurenbolek” Which means I’m officially out of my hiding phase. I’m done deleting people and hiding things. I can only be who I am, and if others don’t like it then that’s unfortunate. But it is what it is. Ask me questions or tell me secrets. Be my friend. Follow my Twitter which I’m trying to use more often.

Juste Love: Honesty →
juste-love:
I feel as though I cannot preach about honesty enough. I won’t sit and rant to you but let me say this, there is nothing that adds to the hurt worse than lying.
No one is perfect. We are going to mess up. If you end up hurting someone or if your mess up is something that effects someone else….
I so desperately need a day to just be alone and do absolutely nothing. But in the past few months, I’m quite positive I’ve had less than 24 hours to be completely alone, with no one around me. The only time this occurs is when I’m in the car. And I’m free to sing and scream and do whatever I need to do. I absolutely love that I’ve been spending so much time with...
