Actually, I do know how to spell gangster...

R-E-B-E-C-C-A!


Now, I have to admit, I've definitely put the blog on hold recently. But no worries; because I've decided to start writing again! According to me, this blog is a form of ventilation; like my own personal stress reliever. And believe me, recently I've needed a way to relieve some major stress and anxiety! So, some of you may be wondering what I've been up to recently. Well, this past month my life has changed in many ways. For one, I've learned that trust is a privledge, and the people you trust should be only those who are willing to defend your reputation, not slaughter it! Believe me, it's hard to have to defend your reputation to those you have never met; and even harder to defend it against those you've known your entire life. So, if I had to give any advice to someone in the future, it would be to "use good judgement before calling someone a friend. Not everyone has your best interests in mind."

However, in light of my recent troubles, I was given the amazing opportunity to attend Palmetto Girls State! Words cannot describe the impact of that camp on my life! The getaway provided me with a chance to not only escape Camden, but also an opportunity to meet several extraordinary young women. These wonderful young ladies changed my life. They proved the extent of real friendship and helped me discover the importance of "my own voice". Now, I'm sure there are some skeptics; I know, because I was one at first! How could a little camp have made that much of an impact... blah blah blah?! Well, I have a theory: In my opinion, Palmetto Girls State was a success because, for the first time in our lives, everyone in attendance was on the same academic level. Everyone there was a Class President, or team Captain! Therefore, each and every girl was forced to form real relationships outside of their comfort zones and without dwelling on their own achievements. So, like I stated eariler, I created friendships that aren't ever going to be replaced. And to that, I am forever greatful! Thanks Stokes City, for being there when I desperately needed a friend!
Boom! Like thunder, Stokes City is gonna take you under;
Flash! Like lightning, Stokes City is oh so frightning;
Cool! Like rain, Stokes City is gonna bring their game!
:)

On a less serious note; I'm at the biotch(beach)! And I'll be down here until next Sunday! (the one after the Sunday thats tomorrow, haha!) Anyways, I'm getting some much needed relaxation; and some much needed time with Chan! You know, to "mend our relationship". A relationship that I screwed up; but thats a whole different story. However, I have some extremely exciting news! First, the "Sexpedition" now has an awesome system! It bumps.... hard! Secondly, I painted a badass cooler! It's amazing and I'm extremely proud! So, with that being said; I'm off to enjoy the first night of my vacation!

Cooler pic, love!
