My best friend

This is my bestest friend in the entire world, Alexis. :]

Okay so now I have shown you my bestest friend. I love her sooo much! She is an adorable little Sophomore this year and she's doing so good! I'm so proud of her. She may as well be my little sister really. We don't get to hang out as much as we used to but, you know, that's life.

I have no voice. Yes, I'm sure my whole family is praising the Lord and sending up numerous Hallelujahs right now but you know what? It really stinks not being able to speak. Well, I can talk a little bit but it's a low whisper. It's so hard for me not to be able to talk much! UGH! Very frustrating. And I don't even know how it happened. I was fine Friday night but I was a little hoarse from laughing and yelling on the way home from the middle of knowhere, AKA Pulaski, Tennessee. You have to entertain yourself somehow for those 3 hours. But then I woke up Saturday morning and I could hardly talk! We had my brother's party yesterday and I sounded crazy! lol It's sucks but it's also pretty funny. Cause anyone who really knows me knows that I loveeee to talk! haha. Kind of ironic.

But today is pretty somber too. So I guess it's good that I can't talk a lot. Yesterday the spiritual mother of our church, Sis. Maude Brown, passed away. She was 95 years old. She always said she was going for 100 but I reckon the Lord saw fit to go ahead and take her. We love her very much and she will be greatly missed! Just this past Wednesday my mother, myself and some friends of ours went to see her in the assisted living home that she was in. She could hardly speak but she wanted us to sing. Just about every song we would sing she would whisper very slowly in between many gasps of air how beautiful it was. I am so proud that I got to do that for her and that I was fortunate enough to be able to hug her and tell her that I loved her. And to hear her say that she loved us too was just a blessing. At around 5 o'clock we will be going to the wake...

So everyone I believe needs to let the important people in their life know that they love him...because we don't know how long we have. We could live to be 95...or we could die tomorrow. I would just like to tell everyone that I love them and that I wish the best for you and all your endeavors. I hope you get everything you want out of life.

So here we are...

I'd just like to throw a shout out to my big brother and say Happy 21st Birthday Blake! [That'll be on March 1st...but I may not blog that day. lol] I love my big brother. Yes, we fight...a LOT. It's pretty ridiculous...but when I need to talk to someone, I know he's there. Sometimes being judgemental, but he's getting better at that. :] Anyways, he's awesome. I wouldn't trade him for anything. :D

Man...this is gonna be such a wonderful weekend! :] Tomorrow night we're heading to the wonderful town of Pulaski, Tennessee. Don't ask my where that is, I have no clue. lol I just know it's going to be a veryyy long ride! haha. Then Saturday we're going to Ichibon for my brother & my good friend Broshia's [Happy 21st Birthday to her too---March 2nd!] birthday get together! Us and about 25 of our closest friends! :D Then we'll be going to either putt putt or hang out at Coolidge park! Yay us! :] Then, hopefully, Sunday we may go to Trenton for church. I haven't talked to Blake about this yet but I'm really hoping it happens! lol

So it seems that it may be a good weekend. :]

Til a later blog!

Happy Belated Single Person Awareness Day! :]

I want to go back to the beach. Now.

Well guys, another Valentine's Day [Single Person Awareness Day] has come and gone. Chocolates, roses, teddy bears. All the painfully UNoriginal gifts have been given. While some new quite original have been given [One Man Wolfpack Shirts, Slim Jims & Fruit Roll Ups. haha] I hope every one had a magnificent one though! :]

I also would just like to put out there that I can not WAIT until Glee starts again! AGH!

Okay, now, I have finally jumped on the bandwagon. I feel like I have done an awful thing. At this exact moment, I am...watching American Idol! There! I admit it...I kind of...like it? Ugh. I am so disgusted in myself. Boo! :[

I am so upset with myself, that I am gonna continue to watch it now. lol Everyone enjoy! :]

I Wouldn't Mind-He Is We

This is an amazing mosaic like picture in the Shrine in Tennessee. It's an eerily beautiful place. :]

"Forever is a long time but I wouldn't mind spending it by your side. Tell me everyday I get to wake up to that smile...I wouldn't mind it...at all. I wouldn't mind it at all." -He Is We :]

I absolutely love this song. It's sooo fantastic. :] (Thank you Aly for introducing me to it!) Ah. Well anyways. Sooo this Sunday is Valentine's Day as most of you have realized by now. As for me, it continues to slip my mind. As I guess it will as long as I'm single. lol Oh well. But I've decided to get some really cute Valentine Candies for all my friends out there. I found some a while back...problem? I can't remember where I found them or even what the were. lol I just remember thinking "I should really get those to give out on Valentine's Day." haha. Oh man. It's ridiculous. But anyways, so I don't really have a whole lot to say today. I guess I'll save all the really mind boggling things for another blog. :]

So it's been a little while...

<---Me and my friends on an awesome Mi Jacal/Wal-Mart night! ;] Sooo much fun! :]


Well it's been a little while since I've blogged...I really need to get the hang of this. But I just want to say that I. AM. SO. EXCITED! :] My wonderful "aunt" and cousins are coming all the way from Atlanta, Georgia this weekend to hang with me! :] I can't wait! I love them sooo much! They're absolutely wonderful. :] AHHH! Okay. Now that that's out of my system. ;] So I watched Paranormal Activity last night. I've heard mixed reviews about it but I thought it was absolutely AMAZING! I mean, I knew everything that was gonna happen and I was still TERRIFIED! lol Man. It was just so good. I'm all for a good, little to no gore, horror movie. And the creepiest thing is that kind of stuff can really happen! :/ We finished the movie at about 11:00 and I was up til 2:00. I never really thought about the movie until I layed down to go to sleep. But luckily, I didn't dwell on it long enough for it to bother my sleeping. But anyway, I would DEFINATELY recommend for ANYONE to watch the movie. I can't get over how awesome it was! :] It would have been even better to watch it with a group of friend or that significant other... ;] Cuddling definately required. :] haha. So anyways, I'm gonna watch a little t.v. and get ready to go shopping for this weekend! :] YAYY! Love you bye! :]
