just got back from my grandparent's "celebration of life and love." here are the things that i remember right now at this moment (this is more for me than anyone else...i'd advise you to not read it):
-my cousin trent didn't want to go with jen cahn because he said she's weird and hes dreadlocks
-political comedian saying things like, "i was engaged at one point, but it didn't work out because of religious differences. i'm catholic and she is satan." chuckle chuckle..?..?
-i thought my cousin, ezra, who is our age, said that brooks robinson, who was the mc, was hott. he did not say that at all. we were on stage, behind a curtain that was about to come up. so, i lost it infront of 125-some people. haha, i'm not surprised, actually
-grandparents looking the happiest i've ever seen anyone. i've never wanted to be like them. i talk about them badly. but, they're happy with their lives which is one of, if not the, most important thing. they have so many friends and family that really care about them, it's outstanding.
-the crowd cheering to the picture of my grandfather and george w. bush. i love republicans. i did not clap.
-rachel, my 7 year old cousin or something like that, trying to have an animal noise making contest with me.
-JARED, 2.5 YEAR OLD, STEP-COUSIN IF THAT'S WHAT YOU CALL IT, IS THE COOLEST KID EVER. he really rocks.
- my dad's lame speech; he is one of the corniest people to ever walk this earth.
-i'm a freakshow even to middle schoolers, i think my cousin is in 7th grade. and she kept making me repeat stuff. i am the mature one haha
-i just decided that if my dress was a boy, i'd definitely be dating it. it's rad!
-the lady rabbi (there's a word for it, but i don't remember and i don't feel like lookign it up, sorry chumps) made a dirty dirty joke. eeeeeeeek
hmm, well that wasn't too exciting. here's something that i really took from tonight:
...to be able to truly be radiant with happiness, that is my goal in life. to have that happiness, like a flame, bond me with others and to be able to brighten others' lives.
i just want to be happy again. i don't want to be alone in life. i watched my aunt talk about how she's envious of my grandparents. my aunt had a really tough divorce a couple of years ago. it's the worse divorce of which i've heard. having their bond that has lasted into their old age, that is what she desires...(although they've only been married for 20 years, but still, they're in their 70s and have their soul mates.) it's a sad fear that i have; without a question it stems from insecurity. i don't want to go through my entire life alone. terrifying
time for dane and bed
