I’m Allegra, 
and this is my blog 
solely dedicated 
to being happy, 
and things makes people smile.

When I first made this blog I thought, there are so many blogs and posts about things that are depressing and awful and about the worst parts of the world, so I want to make one to balance it out. This blog is my attempt to counter the ones that make you feel like the world is an terrible place to live. This blog will be filled with things that are meant to see the world in a better light. Some posts will be funny, others beautiful, and little things to make you smile and keep you going.</description><title>Don't forget to smile</title><generator>Tumblr (3.0; @illbeforeversmiley)</generator><link>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/</link><item><title>evrthling:

They just remember the part where they didn’t have to worry about bills, and their hindsight becomes so focused and narrow that it couldn’t see the period at the end of this sentence.&lt;br/&gt;
The truth is, for many if not most of us, high school is one of the most difficult times you’ll ever live through. At that age, you’re expected to act like an adult while gaining none of the benefits of adulthood. You are criticized for virtually everything you do by just about every adult in your social and family circle. You’re expected to start holding up responsibilities, but under their rules.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Everything I said above about how you need to be yourself and grow into a fully formed human being before your life can really start? Those teen years don’t make it easy. If you look at porn, you have to hide it. If you hang out with friends that your parents don’t approve of, you have to cover it up. When you go out, you have to be home by their set schedule. The house is decorated their way. You eat what they cook. You dress to their standards. You lose every argument because “You’re only 16, you don’t know what you’re talking about yet.”&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;And the entire time you’re dealing with all of this stress, your body is fucking with you from the inside out, blasting you with hormones and chemicals that you’ve never experienced in your entire life until right now. You’re sexually awkward because you don’t have much, if any, experience. If you’re not ready for sex, you’re made to feel like an outcast, and you’re instantly ostracized from certain social groups. It is terrifyingly hard. Some people don’t make it through. You fucking will. Why?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In just a few years, you’ll be on your own. Maybe you’ll go to college or maybe you’ll start work right away. Either way, you will, for the first time in your life, be the master of your own domain. You’ll come home from a hard day’s work and throw your pants on the floor because they’re your pants. It’s your floor. Your rules. And as you spend the rest of your pantsless day, relaxing on your self-made pantscarpet, there’s not a goddamn thing anyone can do about it.&lt;/p&gt;”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cracked.com/blog/5-reasons-life-actually-does-get-better/" target="_blank"&gt;Cracked.com - 5 Reasons Life Actually Does Get Better&lt;/a&gt; (via &lt;a href="http://eagling-on-the-moor.tumblr.com/" class="tumblr_blog" target="_blank"&gt;eagling-on-the-moor&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/em&gt;</description><link>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51167671250</link><guid>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51167671250</guid><pubDate>Thu, 23 May 2013 16:01:47 -0400</pubDate><dc:creator>kueekuatsu</dc:creator></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/c8fe73680da0aadde0c1b4d2e12cad6a/tumblr_mn1uyzxxzi1s159dqo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51163562816</link><guid>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51163562816</guid><pubDate>Thu, 23 May 2013 15:01:18 -0400</pubDate><dc:creator>kueekuatsu</dc:creator></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/d39790c03540f4db2f99b3442fd62d2d/tumblr_mn1v0ufhpt1s159dqo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51112082993</link><guid>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51112082993</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 21:01:06 -0400</pubDate><dc:creator>kueekuatsu</dc:creator></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/04ea23d548206e3f6424ef054fe8bf95/tumblr_mn1v2eUjGR1s159dqo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51107555134</link><guid>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51107555134</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 20:01:11 -0400</pubDate><dc:creator>kueekuatsu</dc:creator></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/59024b3ee745e613bbc57efd25d09739/tumblr_mn0rluXMLk1r1acm3o1_400.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51103100124</link><guid>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51103100124</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 19:01:02 -0400</pubDate><dc:creator>kueekuatsu</dc:creator></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/da501e06b486065c659728a520dd3bf1/tumblr_mmz1kkGV1m1qez01eo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51098630352</link><guid>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51098630352</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 18:01:22 -0400</pubDate><dc:creator>kueekuatsu</dc:creator></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/1d446664febfd3a714ee6a11f93cf749/tumblr_mn0evrgCWt1s33l3ko1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51093983686</link><guid>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51093983686</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 17:00:55 -0400</pubDate><dc:creator>kueekuatsu</dc:creator></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/24c8f6889c24db0319711a4486c3c484/tumblr_mn0mhnmI1b1soq1soo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51089493756</link><guid>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51089493756</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 16:01:35 -0400</pubDate><dc:creator>kueekuatsu</dc:creator></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/1253c009c8f53f92639b0ae91463d0a0/tumblr_mn0qpnMvUt1rjt01vo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51085323951</link><guid>http://illbeforeversmiley.tumblr.com/post/51085323951</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 15:01:13 -0400</pubDate><dc:creator>kueekuatsu</dc:creator></item><item><title>aurora-lovely:
