Reply to this meme by yelling "words!" and i will give you five words that remind me of you
(most people seem to just pluck them out of interests).
Then post them in your LJ & explain what they mean to you.

-Deployment: this is my current enemy. it's the first one sean & i are going through (hopefully the last assuming he still gets out after his contract is up) and we're barely even a month into it. it's one of the hardest things i've had to go through in my life as of yet and i hope it remains the hardest. talk about a long distance relationship. i'm still getting used to it and hold a grudge against the USPS for having such a slow mail system to overseas (ps did you know if you send a package that isn't priority mail it goes by ship...? ridiculous) i have a deployment chain and everyday i take off a link, write the date and a sentence or two about my day or how i'm feeling and it helps me to keep from writing a ton of letters & emails everyday. 
-Postcards: i love these! i collect them and i'm hoping to get every state one of these days. i have a photoalbum esque thing that his sticky sheets that lift up so you can just put something down that's any size. i'd rather acquire them myself by visiting these states but i'm just as happy getting them from someone else who lives or visits there. the goal is to have a postcard showing the state and a postcard that is just themed with that state (if that makes sense to you). but i love all postcards :)
-Pictures: MY LIFE. i love love love taking pictures and having them around. i'm dying to take a photography class and i'm hoping to take one next semester if time allows.this is probably part of my scrapbook obsession because i get to sit and mess around with pictures for hours on end. my bedroom walls have frames all over them and i have two shelves on my wall solely for picture frames..plus their scattered around my room and the rest of the apartment.
-Work: meh. i've worked since i was 15. started at a Honey Dew and no lie it was my favorite job. moved onto the photo lab at cvs (pictures! lol). i worked at both jobs for two years and now i'm at Bridgewell. now i work with individuals who have mental disabilities. to be honest i liked the field alot more when i was volunteering. it's not enjoyable anymore when you have to be there instead of just wanting to be but oh well. i'm hoping to get a second job so i can break it up a little bit. OH! kindof important..my job provides my apartment. i do 5 asleep overnights a week (have to be home by 10p sun-thurs and work 6a-9a) so i don't pay any rent or utilities. it also results in no social life bah.
-Lyrics: the other part of my life lol. 90% of the time the lyrics i post or use as my subject lines (aim profiles etc) have a meaning. i don't usually choose at random unless i just like the lyric or something. this little obsession started back in high school when my friend showed me a lyric community on Blurty (which i still read to this day) and ever since then i've loved reading lyrics & such. just about every note i've written in school and letters i have sent have lyrics written on them. weird? maybe. enjoyable? yes. there's alwayyys a lyric to fit your situation.
