#1: Dear Bruce




So, I have this assignment in one of my classes and it involves creating your own blog. Luckily, I already had one. I love writing and think that it is one of the most therapeutic things a person can do for themselves. I decided for my assignment that i'm doing to write 6 blogs all titled to someone, like in a letter. Each entry will have a number and will be dedicated to something, someone or whatever i feel like writing about. Here goes my first one...

Dear Bruce,
It's been almost two and a half years since you've been gone, and there are so many things I wish I could say to you if I just had the chance. I'd tell you millions of thoughts that have been on my mind since the day you were taken from us. I'd tell you that your four year old son is brilliant, and that sometimes I believe he is a piece of you reincarnated. I'd ask you more questions about the entertainment business and where you've left your mark around the world as a performer. I'd tell you that I think you are one of the greatest men to have ever lived. I'd take the cancer out of your bones and give it to myself if it would bring you back. I'd laugh from my belly again and indulge in one of your famous hugs. I'd tell you that mom's fine and I think you give her strength. I'd watch a football game with you and actually understand it now. I'd sing a song with you. I would talk about college with you and how it scares the shit out of me sometimes. I'd tell you that I think A.J. prides himself in being like you. I'd show you my tattoos which are dedicated for you and you only (and explain about my next one which I think you would love.) I'd update you on my life and how I've been living these past two years, i'm not sure if you would be 100% proud of me. I'd dance with you again, and I would finally perform with you as we used to talk about. If I could see you again, I think it would snap my world back into focus; for it hasn't been quite as balanced since you've been gone.
I miss and love you. RIP
Emily

#1 or twenty


I sometimes believe that the thoughts in my head should be laws. I sometimes think i am so disgustingly brilliant that I can't even understand myself. I always joke around to my friends saying that i'm going to write a book of all my philosophies and the way i believe life should be...but i really want to. I think i could possibly be someone. I think i could stun people.

I think i really could write a book or two or twenty one day.
Maybe in my past life i was a famous psychologist or journalist or something. I think my ideas would be very helpful and insightful to many people, like they are to me.
For instance, i believe food should be free. all kinds of food. because we as humans need food to survive. and why should we pay to survive?
I also believe that school should be optional. like REALLY optional. from the time you enter kindergarten. because children have dreams, and hopes and wishes, and the worst possible thing to do for a child is hold them back from their dreams. cause who knows what that child could potentially be. children could be prodegies, wasting their days learning what 2+2 is, meanwhile creating a whole other world in their head. and then their grades fail, and we hold them back until they finally show an interest in what 2+2 is (or atleast pretend to) and by then their dreams are gone.

I believe sex should be an everyday thing, and it should be fucking fantastic every single time. I believe traveling shouldn't cost as much money, because half of the people on this earth never leave their own state let alone country. and that's just sad.

I believe that music is a necessity for living. I believe that writing can heal all wounds. I know for a fact that time erases pain and covers scars you thought would never fade. I think that tattoos are works of art, no, masterpieces of art. I believe men should flood women with passion, and women should do the same. I believe that cancer is the most horrible thing in this world. I believe that people who are brilliant dancers are gods and goddesses. I believe that you can fall out of love with someone but never stop loving them. I think that terminal illnesses are bullshit, because i believe in miracles. I have witnessed miracles.

I believe that cookies shouldn't make you fat and carbs should make you skinny. I believe that everyday should be clear skies and cool breeze. I think coffee is my savior. I think my ex boyfriend taught me exactly what i do not want in a man, even if it took me five years to realize that. I want my mom to be happy every single day of her life for as long as she lives, because she deserves it, probably more than i do. i think that every person deserves a second chance. i think flowers are pretty and the sexiest thing a man can do is wear cologne. i think grades shouldn't exist, because they are just one person's judgement. I believe that oversized sweatshirts can make anyone look adorable.

I believe in colored fingernails and dying your hair. I think that everyone should feel what it's like to have a love affair. I believe that you can teach someone by not even speaking to them. I think that Grey's Anatomy is the greatest television show ever invented and John Mayer is meant to be with me. I believe that stars in the sky are people that have passed and that the ocean is never ending. I think that outer space is easily accessible and that cheesecake is a blessing. I think marijuana is the greatest thing ever grown and you're never too old to have a sleepover with your best friend. I believe in jersey cotton and feathered pillows, and that you should never wash out tear stains because they remind you of hard times and how you overcame them. I think sometimes, people can be head over heels in love with each other but they just do not work. I think everyone deserves to be adored.

I think i should write a book or two or twenty.
