4. Write about your closest friend(s).
The people I'm closest to and why begins:
Jessi- My little sister. The person I can go to for everything, tell anything to, be anything with. She is so intelligent, so I can talk to her about so many things that are interesting and on my mind. She's so funny so she never fails to make me laugh and always cheers me up. It's also just so easy around her, I feel so safe and content.
Anna- We've been best friends forever. She understands me and makes me feel so secure and confident with her complete acceptance of me and my illness. She loves and cares for me so much that it's hard to believe we're not related.
Chrissy- I don't get to see her that much at all, and that sucks. But she's like the big sister I've never had. I can talk to her about anything and she always made me feel included when I was younger. She's so kind and almost motherly towards me, and she is SO funny.
Jessie: She is the most amazing person ever! We laugh so much when we're together and she makes me feel comfortable about the fact that I sometimes have to be on IV around her (which is hard to do). I can also talk to her about anything, and she's such a caring deep person despite her goofy-theatrical personality. She also loves to hang out with my family (genuinely) and everyone loves her.
Hannah: She's been there for me the entire time I've been sick. She's so caring and always e-mails me and takes interest in my disease (and even reseaches different treatments for me). She never makes me feel like I've been forgotten while I've been home & is the only one who has taken an active interest in my ailment. That's the acts of a "true-blue" friend. lol

***I know Fluorescent Adolescent by the Arctic Monkeys is not exactly appropriate for this darling picture, but hey, it's a good song. And you can kinda see where I got the idea, I mean look at the picture for awhile..no? I tried.
3.Your favorite television program
I also love Law & Order SVU, Cake Boss, Animal Cops (!), The Dog Whisperer (Cesar Milan is my idol!),Desperate Housewives, Dateline: WHat Would You Do?, The Amazing Race (solely because Kev Jumba and his father are on it. Go Team Jumba!) and The Apprentice (solely because of the psychotic childish spastic guy). I also love some late night TV like The Soup and Chelsea Lately on E!. And then on MTV I watch The Buried Life, Teen Mom (the season has ended :/) and World Of Jenks.
Just recently I started watching the Vampire Diaries and I'm surprised to report that I couldn't change the channel. I used to watch Gossip Girl, but everyone was too snobby for me to stay interested.
Yes yes I know, I seriously need a life.
If my life was a movie, this would be my soundtrack.

2. What is true love?
True love is an unbreakable bond between two people. It makes you see the world in a completely different light: revolving around and related to the one you love. It's when you can't stand being away from that person and they're all you think about and talk about; when you're with them, you can't imagine being any happier than you are at that moment with them. It's when you accept someone for all their flaws and see all the good in them; even their flaws seem endearing and flawless (and they feel the same way about you). It's when you feel optimistic and confident around that person and they bring about the best in you. It's when you would do anything for that person just to please them or make their day (within reason of course). It's when you can tell that person anything and everything you feel and think about. It's when you feel completely safe and content with that particular person. It's that feeling when you see that person, you get butterflies in your stomach and can't imagine a world without them.
I hope someday soon I can experience the magic of a true love.
Song challenge day 18- a song that you wish you heard on the radio

Just go, Just walk away,
so bittersweet, you're already far away.
Take with you, our memories
They're opening like summer flowers.
Don't you be fooled
I loved you more, than I would ever dare tell you, I'd ever dare tell you.
I'll let you go, I'm only holding you back,
You're more than a small town, you're more than a small soul.
Close those pretty eyes. Don't look behind.
What did I tell you? That past is past, don't let it follow you.
Don't think, that by any day....I'll forget your face.
How could one forget you?
Hard to let go of something once you get hold of it...once you get hold of it, ya.
Don't you think for a moment....that you aren't worth all of it.

Soundtrack of My Week
Song Challenge day 16- a song that reminds you of summer
Day 28: Write a letter to someone you’ve never talked to in a long time
I haven't spoken to you in a long time. I'd like to say I just forgot, or that I didn't have time, but then I'd be lying. The truth is I lost faith in you, and for so many reasons. As I've grown older, the corruption and evils of the Catholic church have been revealed to me. Clergyman are power hungry, corrupt, and interpret the Bible to fit their own beliefs- and have been this way the entire history of Christianity. They preach that you love everyone except homosexuals, divorcees, women who get abortions, non-Christians etc. This is so hypocritical, and I would be ashamed to be apart of all that hate and strictness. I have found a haven in my own spirituality through positive thinking, good eating, therpeutic ways of living and meditation. I also haven't spoken to you in so long because life has been so cruel to my family and I these past approx. 4 years. I have been neglected by the medical community up until recently, and now I must suffer the consequences. I developed learning disabilities, and they are only worsening as my treatment progresses, and I have all odds against me for having a baby (Von Willebrand's disease will cause me to bleed out, my heart defect will cause me to have a stroke during childbirth, and my children will be born with the Lyme anitgen and/or Autism). This and many more have convinced me that you have failed me, and may not exist. But another part of me likes to believe this experience will be useful and educational, and I will live the rest of my life healthy and happy. I can only hope this is true.
I am sorry that the corrupt Catholic church has skewed my vision and belief in you, but I will try to see you as you are individually and make an effort to speak to you more often.
-Meg

song challenge day 14- a song that no one would expect you to love
Day 26: Your favorite quote
My favorite quotes are currently:
"It's the ride we take, the many winged escape- it's the bough we break to blow away...It's the time we waste swallowed into space; its the time it takes to blow away."
-A Fine Frenzy
"Take with you, our memories. They're opening like summer flowers."
-Meg & Dia Frampton
"The heart may freeze or it can burn; the pain will ease if I can learn. There is no future, there is no past; I live this moment as my last. There's only us, there's only this; forget regret, or life is yours to miss. No other road, no other way; no day but today."
-Rent
Facebook Lawyer: Mr. Zuckerberg, do I have your full attention?
Mark Zuckerberg: [stares out the window] No.
Facebook Lawyer: Do you think I deserve it?
Mark Zuckerberg: [looks at the lawyer] What?
Facebook Lawyer: Do you think I deserve your full attention?
Mark Zuckerberg: I had to swear an oath before we began this deposition, and I don't want to purjure myself, so I have a legal obligation to say no.
Facebook Lawyer: Okay - no. You don't think I deserve your attention.
Mark Zuckerberg: I think if your clients want to sit on my shoulders and call themselves tall, they have the right to give it a try - but there's no requirement that I enjoy sitting here listening to people lie. You have part of my attention - you have the minimum amount. The rest of my attention is back at the offices of Facebook, where my colleagues and I are doing things that no one in this room, including and especially your clients, are intellectually or creatively capable of doing.
[pauses]
Mark Zuckerberg: Did I adequately answer your condescending question?
-Jesse Eisenberg as Mark Zuckerberg, "The Social Network"
Norah: There's this part of Judaism that I like. Tikun Olam. It said that the world is broken into pieces and everyone has to find them and put them back together.
Nick: Maybe we don't have to find it. Maybe we are the pieces.
Norah: Nick? I'm coming in...
~
Thom: Look, other bands, they want to make it about sex or pain, but you know, The Beatles, they had it all figured out, okay? "I Want to Hold Your Hand." The first single. It's effing brilliant, right?... That's what everybody wants, Nicky. They don't want a twenty-four-hour hump sesh, they don't want to be married to you for a hundred years. They just want to hold your hand
~
Drunk Kid: Are you off duty?
Nick: This isn't a cab.
Drunk Kid: Are you off duty?
Nick: It's not a cab, my friend, I promise you.

Nick: I never wash my pants. I like to keep the night on them.
-"Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist" ^.^ LOVE!
"I don't mind spending everyday out on your corner in the pouring rain; look for the girl with the broken smile, ask her if she wants to stay awhile. And she will be loved...Tap on my window knock on my door I want to make you beautiful...It's not always rainbows and butterflies, it's compromise that moves us along..I know where you hide alone in your car, know all of the things that make you who you are...Please don't try so hard to say goodbye."
-Maroon 5, "She Will Be Loved".
"Would it kill you not to be so funny all the time? That's all I'm askin'. This woman thinks I'm very funny and now you're gonna be funny, so what am I gonna be? I'm gonna be a short bald guy with glasses who suddenly doesn't seem so funny."
-George
"Who are you gonna eat to survive?"
"Kramer."
"So fast? What about me?"
"No."
"Kramer's so stringy. I'm plump, juicy."
"Kramer's got more muscle, higher protein content. It's better for you."
"Well, I would eat you."
"That's very nice, I guess."
"I still don't see why you wouldn't eat me. I'm your best friend."
"Look, if other people are having some, I'll try you."
"Thank you."
- George and Jerry, in "The Abstinence"
-"Seinfeld"
Rose: I can't believe my mother is out riding around on a smelly old bus. Being pushed around, harassed, possibly even mugged by hostile teenagers with bad haircuts!
Rose: You... you... you rude person!
Dorothy: Go easy on him, Rose.
-"The Golden Girls"

Song challenge day 13- a song that is a guilty pleasure
Day 24: When you look outside step outside your front door of the house, what do you see? picture if you like **
Right now, I see a million trees with so many amazing and vibrant fall colors, the huge blue sky; and at night it's dark enough to see every star in the universe right above us. Most awesomely though, I see alot of wildlife: baby squirrels (along with the adults of course), chipmunks, rabbits, tortoises, woodchucks, turkey, skunks, possums, coyotes, deer, and foxes; and a HUGE variety of birds- even hummingbirds. I literally live in one of the most beautiful places in the world. :)

Frustrated utterances.
I Didn't See It Coming & I Want the World to Stop by Belle and Sebastian (adorable classics).
Forget You by Cee Lo Green (< I'm OB-sessed with this guy's sound.)
Eclipse Soundtrack (how did you pass me by unnoticed??)
Tighten Up- The Black Keys (hell yeah ;))
Rootless by Marina and the Diamonds (the ONE song I don't have of hers. I was quite surprised that was possible)
Fluorescent Adolescent by Arctic Monkeys ( new to me, but I'm feeling them lol)
Love the way you Lie by Eminem and Rihanna (cannot get over this song)
Pursuit of Happiness by Kid Cudi (pretty much anything by him; I love him but somehow only have one of his songs D: )
Sunshine by Rye Rye and M.I.A.
Meg & Dia's upcoming album It's Always Sunny in Tilamook (out Nov. 2nd)
Lady Gaga's upcoming album Born This Way (release date unknown).
I really hope that my little soul sister (aka my dog minnie) will be alive when I move out in 3 years, because i'm sure as hell not gonna separate from her, and would probably bring her. She's 13 now, and she's doing really well (like a puppy one would say) so I hope she's still this way when she's sweet-sixteen :) Only problem is she needs to be walked like 6 times a day since she's old, and she barks. ALOT. (she has anxiety issues). Just hope my roomie won't mind (anna) ;D
She's my little cuddle bug & sick buddy; college would be depressing without her to mellow me out; haha. I'm gonna try to find a way, or some supplement, to ensure she lives until she's like 18+. I'm sure I could rise to that challenge. I'll look it up right now.
