ABOUT ME

My name is Candy, I'm 21 years old.
I am interested in studying cross-cultural psychology and hopefully one day being able to conduct my own research and writing my own book!! =)
I'm a really happy person and really excited to learn about life..
Absolutely lovee snow and going snowboarding, wakeboarding, skiing, love watching cute movies-- playing board games, walking in the woods, sky diving!! Love bowling but i'm not so great.. lol ice skating is cool. I believe it's about the people your with rather than the things you do. As well as every experience is what you make of it- you should take the best!!

*at the end of the day you just have to smile and laugh at every experience =)

I'm a total helpless romantic whose just looking for a fairytale ending. =) I love to read sappy sayings and quotes.. poems
*it's one of those things that just says everything I feel sometimes and I can connect to more than anything else..

PHILOSOPHY

"dont let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game"
-Cinderella story

"It is our choices..that show what we truly are,far more than out abilities"
-J.K. Rowling

"If you limit your choices only to what seems possible or reasonable, you disconnect yourself from what you truly want, and all that is left is a compromise"
- Robert Fritz

"Never explain-- your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway"
-Elbert Hubbard

"It is easier to forgive an enemy than to forgive a friend"
-William Blake

"If you havn't forgiven yourself for something, how can you forgive others?"
-Dolores Huerta

"The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed"
-Carl Jung

"We find no real satisfaction or happiness in life without obstacles to conquer and goals to achieve."
-Maxwell Maltz

"It's not always about reaching your goal, many times it's all about the road you choose to get there and the challenges you must overcome on the way"

Love doesn't make the world go round. Love is what makes the ride worthwhile. -Franklin P. Jones

Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it. It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk anything, you risk even more. -Erica Jong

It's better to be an authentic loser than a false success, and to die alive than to live dead. -William Markiewicz

One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure its worth watching.

Life is a classroom in which each of us is being tested, tried, and passed. -Robert Thibodeau

Communication. It's the first thing we really learn in life. Funny thing is, once we grow up, learn our words and really start talking, the harder it becomes to know what to say, or how to ask for what we really need.

It's fear of the unknown. The unknown is what it is. And to be frightened of it is what sends everybody scurrying around chasing dreams, illusions, wars, peace, love, hate, all that--it's all illusion. Unknown is what it is. Accept that it's unknown and it's plain sailing. Everything is unknown--then you're ahead of the game. That's what it is. Right? -John Lennon

There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly. -R. Buckminster Fuller

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most...We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people
permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

- Marianne Williamson

Opportunity may knock only once, but temptation leans on the doorbell.

“To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.”

“If you wait to do everything until you're sure it's right, you'll probably never do much of anything.”

“In love, it is better to know and be disappointed, than to not know and always wonder.”

“Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away”
