HERE ARE SOME THINGS...

I WANT TO DO BEFORE I DIE!

Yep, you read that one right. I was sitting on my bed, just thinking. I was thinking of all the things I would love to do before the Grim Reaper comes and takes my life away. I mean, yes, I'm only 18. But hey, my life can end tomorrow for all we know. So here is a lovely list of things I want to do before I die (okay people, I know if I die tomorrow i wont get any of them done! LOL!) :

*Skydive
Kind of like flying, so hey, why not feel the wind through my hair on the way down!

*Spend the night in a haunted house...by myself
Yes people, I eat that shit up! Give me a haunted house & I'm entertained for hours.

*Drive across America. ROAD TRIP BABY!
Give me some good Cd's, a bag of chips & a few good friends & were off on an adventure...oh & I would of course need a map!

*Catch a baseball from a Red Sox game
Okay, so maybe I'll be scared I would get hit in the face...but I'll be sure to wear protection, that's why they made those face mask things...right?!

*Find my birth parents & siblings
I know I may never get this one crossed off, but that's actually my number one dream in life. I want to know where I came from. Who my mother is. If I look like her. I have so many questions for her. It will be hard, but I'm going to try & find my parents.

*Walk in a marathon for breast cancer
Yep, I want to do it! I want to take a good ol' walk for breast cancer!

*Visit Alcatraz
Yeah I know its haunted & there are tons of sharks around it, but who gives a flying crap?! I sure as hell know I don't. I want to go and explore the old creepy jail and maybe have a few ghost encounters!

*Go to a gay pride parade
I think gay people are amazing. They are funny & have really good personality's. They have huge hearts & they can be a really good shopping buddy! So I defiantly want to go and support my gays & what they believe in.

*Find the love of my life
I don't care if he is poor & lives in a shoe box (well maybe the shoe box will be an issue) but still, I want to find a really good, amazing guy I can be happy with and have a wonderful life with. & he obviously needs to make me laugh...duh!

*Live on a farm
I know I defiantly am not a hillbilly, but I love horses (maybe not there stench & there nasty poop) but still, I want to live on a farm and raise a whole bunch of animals. I'm not going to eat them though, they will be strictly pets! I am against hunting and killing animals thank you very much!

*Visit the Great Wall of China
I've always been in love with China. I have no clue why, but I would love to go there. Or maybe even move there. Hmm, I might have to learn a little Chinese before I go. Just so I can be with the "in" crowd when I'm there. LOL!

*Have children
Isn't that every girls dream? To be a mom? Mine is, I would love to have kids. 6 to be exact. I've always been in love with kids. I would love for my mom to know her grand children.

*Spend a whole week at the beach
Not sure what beach, but I want to just lay out under a palm tree, with nothing to worry about & listen to the ocean waves (& maybe some little brats wonderful children screaming & yelling).

*Travel to Africa for an African Safari
It might be hot, but I want to explore the wild side of life!


Okay, so maybe that's only like 13 things I want to do before I leave this earth. But hey, it's better then nothing, right?!

MY FIRST BLOG POST..EVER!

Hello Bloggers!
Hmm, I don't even know where i should start. I figured I would start a blog. I have no clue why, but here i am....Blogging.
Not sure what i should say in my first post.
Lets start with the obvious. My name is Courtney. I'm just a regular 18 year old chick. Not sure where I am going in life, or even my purpose here. But hey, God put my ass on this earth for a reason. That reason, i have not figured out yet. My mission in life, to find out why. I just hope its not an epic fail!
I have a dog named Charlie, a wheel chair bound mother named Brenda & a hard working dad named Ken. I also have two hermit crabs, Lola & Freddy!
I'm a textaholic, shopaholic & an iced coffeeholic (if that even exists, okay well in my little world it does!) . Make me laugh & we will get along pretty damn good.
I have a pretty good life i must say. I was adopted when i was a baby. I know nothing about my birth parents, but i would love to find them. I have no clue where to start though. I'm still trying to figure that one out.
I'm in love with nail polish, hair dye, animals, kids and for some strange reason i like old people. Don't ask why, but i do! There are so many things i would love to do in life. Like go to cosmetology school & open up my own hair / nail salon. Work with animals, mostly monkeys & dogs. Go to school for child development, open up a day care just for mentally challenged children. And last but not least, go back to college (yep, i dropped out of college) to be a medical assistant,  & maybe work in a nursing home with old people or something like that.

I look up to one person in my life. She's like my second mother. Ali. She's an amazing woman. She has a blog also, I think that's why i decided to start one. Hers is so funny! You should google it Crawford Life & Times (or just click here!). She Has 5 kids. Adopted two of them. One from Haiti and one from Arkansas. Her oldest is 21 and her youngest is 3. Then she has three in between. A 5 year old, 14 year old & a 19 year old. There all like my brothers & sisters. She has a great husband & a really good cook that lives in her basement (LOL!). She always puts up with me and takes me in when my parents & I get into fights. I babysit for her & clean her house. So its like a win win situation! She is always taking in kids who don't have homes, mostly her sons friends. I don't know how she does it all, but she does. Like i said AMAZING woman. My hero in life.

Anyways, I'm going to go lay out in the sun and watch the cute construction boys work outside. Its a nice day out and I'm pasty white!

Until next time bloggers!
