The Day...
We were skyping, and talking to each other, and Missy got to see the look on Dee's face when Dee opened up the card, onesie, and the temporary tattoos that she bought for Dee's baby. For me, I was pretty bored at first, although it was nice too see Dee open up her present.
But then Missy said, "Okay, give Gabby her present", and suddenly my throat was dry. I hadn''t been expecting anything. It wasn't my birthday, and I sure wasn't pregnant. So when my mom came out with what looked like a Chinese food box, except cuter, I knew it had to be some kind of small thing, maybe something on paper. I opened it up, and inside was some tissue paper-like stuff. I took it out, and inside was some folded up paper. I unfolded the paper and started reading it.
Then my mom said, "Okay everybody, give Gabby some space". At first glance I noticed it was something from Ticketmaster, and when I peered closer at it I saw the words Maroon 5 and my heart leaped out of my chest. I continued reading to see my row and seat numbers, the date, and the address, and honestly at that moment I almost cried. My sister Missy had gotten me tickets to see my favorite band Maroon 5, and at that moment I was happier than I thought possible. I'm pretty sure I said, "Are you serious?" about 14 times. It was unbelievable, not just that I was going to see Maroon 5, but that anyone could ever be that happy. And for that moment of nearly insane happiness, I have my sister Missy to thank, because everyday I get closer to that concert I get happier and happier. I can't wait until the day of the concert, which to me will feel like a fairytale.

Not Loving You…
And the Winners Are…
Amy and Mark Vann! The category? Best pair of parents I’ve ever met. (Sorry mom, I said pair). They are a match made in heaven. Apart, I don’t think they’d be as good, but together they compliment each other very well, like peanut butter and jelly. Their kids could not have asked for better parents.
Amy: The strict one. Always making sure you do what you’re told, always checking your homework, and always making sure you get a punishment when you deserve it. (With help from her trusty sidekick of course). Without her, I probably would’ve been an idiot, and a spoiled brat. Okay, so I’m still a little spoiled, but if she hadn’t checked my homework, I would not be getting all A’s in my honor classes. Of course she is also a very fun, creative parent. And her kids have the best clothes and hair. They’re probably better dressed than all the kids in my school.
Mark: The (kinda) laidback one. Letting you get away with stuff once in awhile, always smiling, joking, and laughing. Just being around him makes a crappy day feel so much better. Don’t get me wrong though, he can certainly dish out the discipline when you deserve it. Without this man in my life, I’d probably be boring, and I wouldn’t have any sense of humor. Thanks to him, I’m probably the awesomest person I’ve ever met (Besides these two people of course, and my mom). Okay, so I’m a little anti-social at times, but that’s only because I can sense peoples’ energies, and I’m usually only drawn to people with positive energies.
Amy & Mark: Together, they make the best pair of parents in the world. They both have great moral values that they pass onto their kids, and if their kids are 1/2 the parents they are, their kids will be great too. They are a great influence on not just their kids, but also any kids that spend just 5 minutes with them. Luckily for me, I’ve had the great honor and pleasure of knowing this lovely pair my whole life. They’re like my second mother and father. I can’t wait until I see them again, so I can tell them how much I love them and appreciate everything they’ve done/do for me.

I’m so glad…
I’m only 1/2 Polish. Otherwise I’d be saying things like “of all the six senses we have my fave is touch”. Sorry mom, but I just had to make fun of that. I mean, hello, most humans have 5 senses. I have 7 though. I’m psychic, and I can sense peoples’ energies. But, we’re not talking about all the reasons I’m awesome, so let’s not get off subject. (P.S. I cannot write today. I have the right words to say somewhere in my head, but they’re just so elusive. Sorry my post kinda’ sucks.)

Coolness…
I don’t know how, when, or where I had this epiphany, but now that I’ve had it I’d like to share it:
Coolness, is something that’s unattainable. If you think about it, its true. When you look back at yourself, from let’s say a year ago, don’t you think ‘Man was I a dweeb’, or ‘Gee, that was really stupid’, but a year ago you thought you were the coolest. And right now you’re probably thinking you’re the s***. But don’t you think that if you look back a year ago today and think that of yourself, that a year into the future you’ll be looking back at who you are now and thinking the same thing? That’s why I don’t think people should put so much emphasis on who or what’s popular. We shouldn’t try to impress anyone, so they can think we’re cool, because in the end it doesn’t matter. Instead we should pay attention to the things that actually matter.

This man …
Never seems to take a bad picture. He’s like my sister Missy, he could make a booger in his nose look good. I can’t wait until the day I get to meet him.
