ive counted my blessings, praise the lord
such.a.fweaking.good.time.
so im in virginia with my beautiful sisters and brother. this has been the time of my life. let me explain:
gwendy, 26
heydii, 23
whitney, 20
sherei, 17
whitney and i are exactly like heydii and gwendy. whitney is my best friend (as heydii is gwendy's best friend). heydii is messy and free spirited like me, while whitney and gwendy suffer from a mild case of OCD(!!) and extreme organization. when the four of us gather, its nonstop laughs. we always do the same things, dispite how much time we spend apart. we are all always saying the same sentences at the same time and laughing in the same huge manner. my sisters are clever girls, so the practical jokes never really end.
and then their is marc, my brothernonbrotherbrother. long story. another long story made short; im pretty sure he has lost half of his brain to drugs. its a sad thing, but at the same time he is one of those free spirit stoners you cant help but to smile at. so we are all sitting here cracking up, and every once in a while marc will try to tell a story. but he always forgets the middle, or the end, and he always fumbles over his words. and then when its complete it doesnt make any sense.
heydii has a new boyfriend we just met. 'meeting new boyfriends' is one of my favorite lopez family traditions. dad, a huge scary spanish man, always ..i mean always...intimidates the crap out of the boys. he yells at them, ask them the classics (what are your intentions with my daughter!!??) and usually sends them packing. and then to make matters worse, whitney, gwendy, and myself decided to start hitting on him. it was HILARIOUS. heydii was dancing up on some dude at a baseball game, and erik (her boyfriend) was like 'whoaaa'. so we all sent erik a text message that said like 'lets hook up, your hott'. heydii got soo mad. and then everytime we would pass him whitney would shake her THANG (she certainly has one) or gwendy and i would drop something just so we could bend over and pick it up.
im sure you had to be there, but basically. this is exactly what i needed. i am an army brat, so its really difficult for me to make friends. not that i dont make friends, just that i have a general disinterest in keeping them. im so use to packing up and leaving, i dont see the point in 'trying' at friendship. yes ive been blessed with a few great people in my life. but what im trying to say it--whenever things get awful at home, and im ready to pack up, ive always got my sisters here. they are my family, my best and dearest friends. sometimes all it takes is three days in paradise to make the real world seem like a sinch.
when i get home i plan on having the best summer of my life. i plan on watching the world cup like its going out of style, playing soccer harder than i ever have, living at the rock family worship center and spending as much time with my 'masters commission'ers before they have to go to school in the fall, exploring new friendships that have just recently been birthed and i cant wait to investigate, enjoying my wonderful 'huntsville regular' friends, and of course enjoying time with old friends home from college.
my life is awesome, that is something to count blessings for.
