The Story
June 11, 2010
I have a dream and I have had this dream for as long as I could remember. When my friends would talk about whom they are going to marry, where they are going to live and who their neighbors would be, I always talked about how I did not need a man or a child to make me happy. All I needed was a house on stilts, built in the sand with the beach as my backyard. I had plans to go to Miami University to study Marine Biology. I am a fish in water and all I ever wanted to do was swim with the dolphins as well as have a job that allowed me to be outside. I love being outside (however well all know that with Oklahoma summers that is next to impossible). Even more so, I love being in the water. I want to jump in to it -feet first, dive- head first, slam in to it -butt first; however my method, I want in it. I want it warm, and I never want to come out. I want the sun to penetrate every strand of my hair causing it to turn its funky Irish shade of dark red. I want…I want, I want.
