There she goes...There she goes again...

I’ve got a brilliant plan. I’m going to take a picture everyday (that I can) and post it...

Why? I don’t know...

It’s cause one day I’m an ugly duckling then next I am a swan...  so this way it will be easier to track what i actually look like...

I guess you wanna know stuff about me, right?
I’m 21. I will be this November. I’ve got a boyfriend who I’ve been with for the past 5 years. (I’m still not married.) I currently live with my In-laws. (I don’t mind it though I love them!)

I have a rather large family... On my mother’s side I’ve got 2 Uncles and 3 Aunts (excluding their spouses), 16 Cousins, 7nephews and 1 niece. On my father’s side got 1 Aunt and 1 Uncle (excluding spouses) and 4 Cousins

I used to be a very dark person... I used illegal drugs and was very self destructive. Most of the scars on me are self-inflicted wounds.  But all of that was put behind me... yes yes my boyfriend became my emotional crutch, but through the years of being together I’ve overcame my darkness. And began to love and care ,no holds barred, for a family that i’ve never really felt like i was a part of... with such a large family i’ve never really fit in with the group. (if that’s the way to phrase it).

My Grandfather (PopPop R.I.P) Just recently passed away. The main cause being small-cell lung cancer though he also had prostate cancer and a brain tumor. I spent most of my time with him during the last two months, going with him to radiation and chemotherapy. i’d spend the night at the hospital keeping him company and talking with him about his memories. In turn those days spent will be my cherished memories.

Believe it or not I’ve been through a lot. I guess you could say I’ve a sort of naive intelligence about the world...
Well good night ladies and gents...

The Ugly Duckling…

Very sorry about your grandfather. I'm sure he was suffering badly though. And at least he's not anymore. And you have those great memories of being together to always hold onto.

Also, I like the posting a pic idea cause you're beautiful. :)

hello, very pretty duckling.
You were very good spending so much time with your grandad. I am sure the kindness you have shown will be returned to you some time in your life.
