For Fall Break, my Big, one of my girlfriends and my young man and I all went down to Virginia Beach. When we got there, it was wicked warm for October, so we went to the beach and played in the sand. When we were all done, my Godmother stood us all in a circle, and took a picture of our sandy feet. I always wanted a copy of that picture, and she found it, put it in a frame decorated with shells and sent it to me.
Mum and Dad got me a digital camera. This also rocked hardcore, and I'm going to try it out when I go to New Jersey with my pals for New Year's.
My favorite gift this year has to be the Irish claddagh ring my boyfriend gave me. It's so simple and pretty, yet has so much meaning and tradition behind it.
His mother also told him how great we are together and how she has a feeling that I'm "the one". It's always nice to get the mom's stamp of approval!
