Cassy In Her Own World

Someone who has made my life worth living Again, I'm not entirely sure how to answer this. There have been so many people in my life that have made life a little easier, a little better, a little brighter, a little...more than it should be. My mother, for one, is an inspiration all on her own. At times, she worked 3 jobs just to make ends meet, but she always made life something to look forward to. She survived 3 miscarriages, 2 daughters, one divorce, an abusive relationship, fleeting romances, countless moves, several dead end jobs, broken limbs, scratched knees, huge fights, even bigger disappointments, being completely broke and overdrawn, and overall a very hard life. Through it all, she never let on how hard it was on her. My sister gave me hope. We never had a good relationship when we were younger (in fact, we took sibling rivalry to the extremes at most times), but around her 18th birthday, we really got to know each other. Of course, it wasn't really hard -- we we...

Discuss some of the things on your bucket list On my bucket list, the list of things to do before I die? I want an adventure. Something really exciting, dangerous, thrilling, amorous (maybe). I want one good rush of adrenalin in my life that I can look back on in my life when things get dull. It doesn't even have to be a long adventure, it could be just a few hours. But it should be something that makes me really feel alive. I want to get married. I want to have a happy relationship with a man I love, have one or two children, live right outside the city with a small house and a backyard and perhaps a few animals. It's boring, it's overdone, it's stereotypical, it's apple pie American, but it's my dream. I want to see Japan and Australia and Russia. I want to be kissed in the rain. It is the most romantic notion I can think of, and I don't want to miss out on that experience. I'm 19 years old now and I still have yet to be really kissed. I defi...

Something I hope to change about myself and why I've never put a lot of thought into changing myself. Sure, I've had the odd kick now and then: lose weight, get in shape, better diet, stricter hygiene routine, clean my room, be nicer, etc. etc. etc. ... But they've all passed, either due to my lack of strong will to actually do these things or because I talked to a friend and realized I didn't need to. I don't think people should change themselves unless it is absolutely dire. Telling an obese child they need to run and play and get in shape isn't trying to demean the child, although people might see it that way, it's trying to make it healthy and with that health comes happiness, because maybe it'll feel better and avoid early onset diabetes. Telling someone to stop smoking isn't trying to hurt them, it's trying to help them. Of course, people try and change others all the time without any thought to the person's feelings. Americans tr...
