Random word! asshat.
I'd like to meet:
Alan Rickman, Anne McCaffery, Billy Connolly.I want to meet friends, they are the most important thing in my life. Some would say that FAMILY is the most important thing in one's life, but they are wrong, beucase my family ARE my friends. My sisters especially. Kari, a sister by blood, and Shawna, Kristal, Elizabeth and Brandy. Sisters. Family. Brian, brother by blood. Friend, family. friend and family are and should be always interchangeable. i want more friends in my life, becuse one can never have a family that is too small.
Music:
Well... my music is as varied, if not more than, my interests.... the following list doesn't even contain artists whom I only have 1 or 2 songs by, and artists I RARELY ever listen to. My parents played music for me when i was in the womb, they played music for me growing up. Several times, we would sit as a family in the living room and listen to music and talk. My dad would put music on and my mom, sister and I would try to guess not only who was playing, but what song it was and what album it was on. If my parents are ever MISSING CDs, they look in my room. My walls have a few of my favorite records on them, and I own a VERY good record player (currently in storage :( ), and will most likely be taking all of my favorite records out of the garage with me when I move out on my own. I cannot stand silence, and I am never truely IN silence. Even when I am outside in the woods without music, I still hear the music of nature, and I still have songs playing in my head. I listen to music when I drive, I listen to music when I cry. I listen when I am angry, when I am happy and When I am reading. Music can cheer up a sad person, it can make a happy person cry. It can calm an angry person, and it can help someone who is working set a rythm to work by. Music is third in importance to me, with Family and Books being first and second. Enjoy the list:
