8 what is a unicorn?

remember this post from the summer?
u⋅ni⋅corn 
[yoo-ni-kawrn]
–noun
1. a mythical creature resembling a horse, with a single horn in the center of its forehead: often symbolic of chastity or purity.
2. a heraldic representation of this animal, in the form of a horse with a lion's tail and with a long, straight, and spirally twisted horn.
3. a boy you want but you can't have. term coined by Sara Mildenhall summer of 2009. ex: Rachel Robbin's Unicorn is engaged, aka completely ideal, fictitious, unreal & intangible.

Ladies & Gents. I have a UNICORN.
It's only a unicorn for a little while because this will happen, don't you worry about it.
And Sara thinks we'll have the most beautiful children. Just a plus.

  6. That's because we want what we can't have...it's easier that way, right? One day, the guy that has been pestering you to go out with him will actually catch your eye for a sec and so then you give him a little bit of time and realize HE was the one you had wanted all along...not the unicorns...confusious says.
