I think first I will do Lindsay's little questionnaire:
10 years ago:14 years old. Rosie was still riding that grunge rock phase. Listening to a lot of Nirvana and Hole. Just beginging to appreciate Grateful dead and The Smiths. My room was covered floor to ceiling with posters from movies and magazines. My mom was still in her "crazy phase" so we had yet to settle down anywhere, alas I was always the "new girl", so I didn't have any friends. The music was my friend.
5 years ago: 19 years old. Freshman year at Biola. Getting lost in all my classes. I love being in school. Amber and Wild Wilhe were my roommates. This is the first year I began to journal, and the flood gates opened wide. My mom got married around this time, so I inherited a crazy ass group of "step siblings" (for all those that attended the wedding I'm sure you can remember the "Who can bust this?" fiasco. Brilliant.
1 year ago: Sleeping on Suzanne's floor in Portland. Working for the Red Cross pimping blood from donors in the Portland area and surrounding cities. Portland is where I feel the most at peace with my surroundings. It was fun getting acquainted with that city with Suzanne at my side.
Yesterday: Drove "home" to Vegas from Fullerton. I do love contemplative drives, windows down, music blaring. The desert was beautiful, very crisp. If that makes sense. Then the city peaked around the last bend and my heart got anxious. I gotta make amends with this city or it might get ugly here.
5 snacks: Chips and salsa, donuts, peanut MandMs, Diet Coke, did I mention Diet Coke?
5 songs I know by heart: Frankly Mr.Shankly by the Smiths. Landside by Fleetwood Mac. Long December by Counting Crows. Love is a Battlefield by Pat Benatar. Wish You Were Hear by Pink Floyd.
5 with a mill: Put my bother through school so he could quit his shity job that he hates. Buy my mom a liitle house. Finish school. Clean up my credit=pay all thoses damn hospital bills. Rosie+Suzo+Amber ladies of leisure for quite some time.
5 places I'd run to: Thailand. Vietnam with Tyler. Portland with Suz. The ocean (with the ability to breath under water). Somewhere where it is perpetually Fall.
5 things I'd never wear: Mini backpack. Clothe scrunchy. Any Disney paraphanalia. Body suit. Pants rolled into socks. And yes I have been guilty of all of these crimes.
5 favorite TV shows: ER, Seinfeld, Conan, The Daily Show, Cheers.
5 biggest joys: My brother, my friends, my coffee/journal/reading the paper routine, music, and when I can still hear God's whisper.
5 favorite toys: My freakin Ipod rocks my world, my new old timey typewriter... Frankly those are the only "technological" things I own at the moment. I guess the camera I borrowed from Joey is mine for the time being.
