1. Family (essential)
2. Travel (necessity)
3. The ability to breathe because it gives me life and i don't know what I would do without it. Yeah bam, got soppy!
So in stage one of getting to know me, i may as well go through the first love of my life.
Family!
I am the baby of the fam. Got a killer mum and dad, they are priceless and they decided to have my pretty gorgeous big sister before me, Charlotte Emily Webb. She is my best friend...most of the time...maybe not really...actually can't stand her...oh wait yes I can...I love her!
My mum is a babe! Yes she does shoot me for saying that but deep down she loves the fact I call her K-dogg and crush her with my loving!
And then there is dad who is just a barrel of laughs. From the good old 'pull my finger' joke to the wise words he gives me normally followed by "don't tell your mother". He is my champion.
I also count my closest friends as my family. The amount of trouble we have gotten ourselves in, the laughs we have had and the fights we have had have literally made us stronger. I disagree with some of them and some of them are my total opposites but I think that is why we work so well. A lot of what I say is based on what they have showed me and what they have yelled at me about.
Bec, Mel, Clo, Skye, Alice and Kim will come up in my blogs a lot. This is like a heads up that these names are your link to my real life muses. They are part of the reason I am the way I am.
And the final name that matters is Taylor. He is my boyfriend who is priceless entertainment, continued controversy and in my humble opinion, one fine piece of guy :) I'm nineteen and have my whole life ahead of me but hell, if this stage in my life (open ended and undefined time limit) is shared with someone who makes me laugh, smile, cry, think and be myself then I think I will keep him around for a while. Yeah, he has earned it...he is a keeper.
Families are like fudge - mostly sweet with a few nuts. ~Author Unknown
This quote is an understatement into my family. We are one big bunch of nutbags with all our stories and experiences.
We have had our laughs and our tragedies but as I was discussing with my mum the other day, I am one of the luckiest girls on the planet. I have all four of my grandparents to have afternoon tea with and discuss what my parents got up to at my age (great for defense purposes). I have never experiences loss within my family. Now my family is huge. Dad is the eldest of 7 and then the kids just had kids and then it just grew and now it is just BIG. But for me to have all of them makes me appreciate them more.
Sure we have had our close shaves. My Uncle Martin was hit by a plane propellor, my mum had breast cancer and my grandfather has had 2 heart surgeries. I mean are we lucky or are we lucky. Nothing beats a family reunion where I get to see everyone.
The latest reunion was only last Saturday. Elle turned 18 and the whole family got together. No matter what happens to me in life, this family is me and my god my life is going to be full of laughs. Inappropriateness and laughs...thats for sure!
Anyway. I could talk for days about my family...but trust me, that would actually be boring. They make no sense to me normally so I pity the fool who chooses to read my blog and attempt to understand my rambling family!
Embrace your family...when something goes wrong or right...they are the ones that are there no matter what. You can't deny them! (nor would you really want to!)
Peace
