Day Five... (Favorite Memory)


This is one of my favorite memories. Every summer the whole family would get together down south at my Aunt Connie's house and have a huge famly reunion. I have never had a better time in my entire life. It's when all of my famly was still alive, there was no family drama or disloyalty, we were young and having the time of our lives. These are memories that can never be taken away from me, regardless of how fucked up certain people turned out to be. That's me in the pink innertube, Jason floating by himself, and I'm pretty sure Uncle Larry (might be Uncle Lee) about to land on his back in the pool. Ow. I miss him so much. But that's just what makes this an  even better memory.

I wouldn't be able to recognize the good times...

...if I had never had to deal with the bad.

Day Three... (Fave)

This one was a little hard, but definitely not for the same emotional reasons as yesterdays. I have too many favorite shows and having to choose was very difficult. I narrowed it down to two, and that's the best I could do.

The first...

One Tree Hill. I love this show. I know it's a silly teenage drama, but a lot of the things in this show ring true in my life and things that I've gone through and things that I'm going through. Somehow this show always makes me feel better. And the kick-ass music is amazing.


The second...


Law and Order: SVU. I think it's pretty obvious why I'd choose this. It depicts exactly what I want to do with my life. Even though it's TV and it's not reality, this show rings true for me. I am totally in love with Christopher Meloni and I envy Mariska Hargitay and her character Det. Olivia Benson.

It's difficult to know where you're going, if you don't know where you came from...

Took this picture from National Geo's website. Absolutely amazing.

When I Grow Up...


When I was 5 years old, my mom always told me that happiness was the key to life.
When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up.
I wrote down "happy."
They told me I didn't understand the assignment
and I told them they didn't understand life.
