Giving Back


When I make it in life and hit the jackpot and am loaded with cash I want to make a gym. I want to make a gym that is free for anybody and is open 24/7. I want to do this because I don't see why people should have to pay to work out and lose weight. I would make it so you just go there and start a membership that is completely free. When your done your membership you just get a pass and that opens the doors for you the you can go whenever you want.

Strength


Symbolizes unconscious powers
Terrifying Strength
Raw physical strength
Emotions will be set free
Never back down
Given strengths
Tough and indomitable
Hot passion

Tatted Up

The ink on my body,
Runs deeper than the blood in my veins.
Defined lines & shading,
Describes my birth month.
Each curve & line,
Make perfection on my skin.
September 5th celebrates my birth,
Virgo is my sign.

Born Distracted


Sitting in class with my friends talking and trying to have fun. Teacher is explaining the assignment for the day and i'm just talking away with my friends not paying attention. The teacher thinks i'm paying attention cause we are good at covering it up. Teacher finally finds out were talking and tells me to stop talking cause im distracting the class so I stopped... I am just sitting there now off in my own world, shaking my leg. Trying to concentrate but I can't sit still. I was just naturally born distracted. I blame it on the ADHD though. That's my excuse every single time someone says something about me not being able to concentrate. The teacher gets done explaining the assignment and sends us off doing our own thing and i'm just completely lost and have no clue what to do. That is basically the story of my life rite there.
