Tiny Update.

As a lot of people may know, Amy has been busy lately.
See post below....Know that Kevin W. Elliott is my best friend in the whole wide world. I can tell him everything (things 100% of people would NEVER want to know) and he thinks it's beautiful.
I took a 6 day hiatus off of school because I wanted to spend time with him. I gained an extra family, and albeit tragic circumstances, enjoyed time with people whom I now love and respect very much. I learned that the Marine Corps. is a respectable group and can be a second family to those who lose their loved ones. I think all of us had a lot of fun reminiscing and celebrating the life of Tommy. I learned that it's okay. It's okay to celebrate in the face of loss. It's okay to make new friends and to have a great yet very sad weekend in honor of a loved one.

I also lost my dog Buster. He was 18 years old. I picked him out when I was 4. I watched him go...I watched him being injected with some pink stuff that took away his suffering and pain. I held his head and pet him while he was dying. I really will miss him. He's been in my life for so long; Longer than my brother has (not to say my brother doesn't hold the utmost importance in my life, but still).

Anyway, that's a sad tiny update on me. I'm thankful for my best friends in the whole world, and I'm thankful for my family. One thing I ask is that you all pray I get through the last month of this semester. I'm really doubting myself at this point.

Love you all...... www.amymarissa.tumblr.com

may angels lead you in...

"Carpe diem! Rejoice while you are alive; enjoy the day; live life to the fullest; make the most of what you have. It is later than you think."

I'm sure it's beautiful up there, Tom. To the Elliott family, especially Kevin who honestly is my best friend, I love you guys and will always be "just up the hill" for you.

lovesongs.

You know you have a "too nice" problem when a love song comes on, and you think about someone else's situation. I want to text them to tell them they're not alone, and John Mayer feels the same way, but I can't because that would be a little too weird.
Maybe it's actually a problem called "Amy doesn't have a life, or love life".

Other times, I cry for people. If I know they're numb and can't cry for themselves, I cry for them. I don't tell them though, because that would also be weird.

your heart is an empty room.

I used to realllly love Death Cab for Cutie. I just recently found this song. It's gorgeous.
