I’ve been at the library for going on four hours now. And I’ll probably be here a few more. When did I get all this work??!!? Reading. Papers. Projects. Applications. blah blah blah.

Forever starts...THIS December?
This beautiful couple is my cousin Daniel and his fiancée Leslie. He’s flippin’ awesome and I love her to bits! They were scheduled to get married December 2011 but due to an uncooperative United States Navy, the wedding was switched to THIS December.

Who said words don't hurt?
Fat. Useless. Faggot. Retard. Psycho. Dyke. Stupid. Anorexic. Loser. Dumb. Ugly. Moron.
These are just some of the hurtful words that children, teens and young adults have had said to them. And unfortunately these words have become commonplace over the past few years.
Bullying has become a pandemic in America and it absolutely breaks my heart. The fact that we cannot turn on the TV or pick up...
