#quoatations

Sammy: "Last thing I remember... a car accident. After that, I was given a new purpose. They told me to stop crying and always smile. That I am the face of Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizzaplex. I'm proud to be a asset of Fazbear Entertainment, LLC."

@guardianofreaks asked me a awhile ago (and I’m so sorry for taking so long to finally do this) what are three quotes that define parts of me.

These quotes are listed in no particular order.

1. “If there’s a will, there’s a way.” -Unknown

Reason: I just feel like this fits me. If I’m approached by a problem that looks difficult to solve, whether its big or small, I always find a creative way to solve it. Like the other day, I was at the pool with my friends and we had this small cooler and we were trying to fit an icepack, a large water bottle, and a large green tea bottle in it and it didn’t seem like we were going to get it in there. And so I was just like, “Let me try”. And despite my friends telling me that it wasn’t going to work, I managed to put all three things in the cooler in a way that just made them barely fit and said said quote above after I had successfully shut the cooler.

2. “Surround yourself with who you want to be.” -Uknown

Reason: Way back in 5th grade, I had a teacher that had a poster on her wall that said that quote that had a picture of a used pencil surrounded by freshly sharpened pencil. I thought about it a lot and still do. I am very observational when it comes to little details like that and always look at posters during class and will remember them. In fact, I remember the poster of MLK and the poster with a cat thinking about a tiger that said something like “Dream big” on it that my first grade teacher had. I can remember multiple posters that my teachers have had in their rooms and that was one that stood out to me. But I realize that I do surround myself who are exactly like me or that I want to be. I surround myself with good people and have never befriended someone who wasn’t a good influence on me on my own. 

3. “I’m an apostrophe, just a symbol to remind you that there’s more to see” -Imagine Dragons, “Whatever it Takes”

Reason: I love this song and I love Imagine Dragons, so I just had to add this in here. The first time I heard this song lyric, I was absolutely blown away. Like you ever hear a song lyric that’s just so clever, deep, or meaningful or all three and just become speechless all of the sudden? There’s quite a few song lyrics that have done this to me and that I think about a lot and this is one of them. As someone who used to be really shy, I can really relate to this song lyric. I just felt like there was so much more to me that my classmates never knew about me that only my best friends and family members knew. To them, I was just the kid who rarely talked and was incredibly smart. Later on in life, I had my friends tell me that when we were younger, people would go up to them and asked what it was like being friends with me. Did we ever hangout? Did I ever talk? Did I ever lighten up and tell jokes? The answer to all of those questions was yes. My friends told them that we would hangout often outside of school and that I was a completely different person then. I was less uptight and was funny. They even told them that I was actually the most talkative out of all them, which everyone found it extremely hard to believe. I’m no longer shy and actually talk in class now and actually participate in sports in clubs, but I’m still picky with choosing my friends. There’s only a few people that I actually talk to each of my classes and I only hangout with a select few outside of school so I still feel like there’s still much more of me that most people haven’t seen yet.
