It's official. I'm going to suck it up and not let this depression get to me. No one ever promised this life would be good, or easy, so you have to learn to roll with the punches and deal with the hand God gives ya.
"When Life Gives You Lemons, Make apple juice and then watch people wonder how you did it."
So, in light of this, I'd like to take this chance to explain a little bit about why I chose these four amazing girls to be in Nightmare Phase, and why I'm so lucky to have them in my life:
Ivy - My Light. She's my best friend, and has been with me through the hardest of all the times. Even though she doesn't seem to take anything seriously, there's no one else in the world who can listen to my problems, then instantly make me laugh about them simply by being themselves. She knows exactly what to say and when to say it, and snaps me back to reality...erm, her reality. Spending minutes on the phone with her can undo weeks of misery. I don't know what I'd do without her.
Imo - My Warm Blanket. She's my security, the one I can vent to for hours at a time. Even though I don't always see it, she's always looking out for me and always is there to listen to my problems and offer advice. She always has a shoulder to cry on and an open heart. And she cares about others' well being. She shares my empathy for others, and I share her caring heart.
Teira - My Mirror. She's my sister, not by blood, but by heart. And like the relationships sisters have, as opposed to friends, we fight and we argue, but we always end up loving eachother in the end. We have so much in common it's scary; from our eating habits, to our personality quirks. She always has a compliment or a good word, and her laugh lightens up the room. I've never gotten so annoyed by someone, but loved them so much for it at the same time.
Rin - My Rock. She's my childhood friend, who was separated from me when I moved away at a very young age. We didn't keep in touch and had no idea of eachother's existence until a short time ago. But within a few weeks, a strong bond was instantly formed. Some people just fit together, and that's us. We have TONS in common. More than almost anyone else I've ever met. Even things like our childhood home, to being homeschooled, to being adopted, to personality traits and bad habits...We balance eachother because we handle situations so similarly, and I love having her in my life.

Well, just thought I'd share. I'd like to remind you, make sure you tell all the special people in your life you love them. Sometimes, they need to hear it more than you could ever imagine.
