"I bought a one-way ticket, 'cause I knew I'd never see the ground, unless I was aboard a jet plane and we were going down. When I wiped the tears from my eyes, the warm water took me by surprise. And I woke up beside the ocean, I realized: I must be in California." -Owl City

Chocolate and hugs: a beautiful combination.

I’ll be honest with you, I’m a fan of chocolate.  And hugs, but we’ll get to that. This semester I’ve become rather attached to Dove chocolate. It’s just so wonderfully delicious. Plus, you get these encouraging little messages on the wrapper. What more could you want from chocolate? One of my favorites that I got a while back was, “Time you enjoyed wasting was not wasted at all!” What a thought.

This here is my new favorite, however.

Brilliant.

A hug. That’s beautiful. As I mentioned, I really enjoy hugs. I realize that this isn’t a sentiment that everyone shares, but I just happen to find them incredibly comforting. A lot of times some of my friends don’t know what to do when I’m upset. Really, I don’t need them to do or fix anything. A hug would totally suffice. It’s kind of like saying, “Hey, I’m here for you.” And sometimes, that’s just the reminder that I need.
