☆Amanda's Livejournal☆

Do not remember events, remember how you FELT in those moments. I think this is the biggest thing people forget to do. There's a huge disconnection between recorded dates and actual remembered feelings.

"Family, friends, husband and wife, lovers. We seem to be one of those, yet actually we are none of those. We'll treasure this fragile happiness and go as far as we can, and beyond. From now on and forever, let's stay friends. If possible, without ever being apart. And also, if anything were to happen and we had to be apart, let us meet again someday, all with a face of laughter. My dear friends... You are my last friends..."

I've never packed up to move before. This is hard!

Fundraiser to help Amanda with her last semester of college tuition!


I'm in a bit of a tough spot right now. I only have one more semester at UTSA before graduating with my B.S. in Kinesiology. Money is super tight and while working as a non-paid intern these next few months, I don't know how I'm going to do it.



Seriously, anything helps. ♥

Michael Jackson's cover of Smile.

I listened to it with my mom on the drive to the mortuary for my grandma's viewing. It's not possible for me to NOT get emotional when I hear it.

In the last thirty years since the discovery of this horrible disease, we have made so much progress in the medical care available. Newer and better medications are being tested and slowly but surely, I believe that even if there isn't a cure in the future, it will be possible to live a long life if you take the proper precautions.

Swing Girls with Juri Ueno. It's about a group of girls who deliver lunches to their school's band but it turns out they were all spoiled because of the heat. The whole band is sick and so the group of girls are sent to detention in summer school. To get out of detention, they figure they'll sign up for jazz band. None of them play instruments though. It's silly and fun, but at the end they all make it to their competition and do well. It could be a funny American remake, but there are so many movies like that already.
