5, 6, 7, 8.

So I have a pretty good reason for getting behind on my blogger challenge, (thanks to a road trip to CA to see my sister-in-law return from her 18-month mission to NY!) but here's a little catch up from all the days I missed.

PUBLIC PROFESSION of LOVE to.... this blogger and this blogger.

Ms. McKenzie and I go way back to my freshman year of college (her sophomore). She was the roommate of my BFF I met in the lunch line at school (Rachel). It took us a while to become good friends, but once we did become friends it was beautiful. The thing about she and I? We have lots in common: same major (and in turn, same classes), same love for literature and writing, same job now, same job in the Fall (different schools, same district), same newlywed boat, and some day we will write a tv show together (just you wait!). I love the way she writes and I love her, so I love her blog.

The lovely Grace and I have been friends even longer. We took a tumbling class together before we went to the same high school and played on the tennis team (she was much better than I). The best thing about us though? We lived in London together and traveled all around Europe eating meringue and matching and have been quite close ever since. I love her and her blog because let's get real, the lady has class. I really do adore her and her beautiful self.

...

If someone asked me what I do, besides what I do, I would say I love deeply, think too much, and try to laugh as much as possible. I take myself way too seriously sometimes and not serious enough other times. I'm an avid tv watcher, book reader, food eater, and dream dreamer.

...

I've always been most afraid of being alone. So afraid that it used to keep me up at night. Just the idea of having absolutely no one scared me, even though I knew it would never happen. I'm also afraid of putting myself out there and being rejected. I'm sure of other things too I just can't think of any.

...

Don't back down. On anything. If I have had any regrets in life they are all in relation to not trying hard enough or quitting too easily.
