I love, but I don't

It’s May 19 2008

I’m at my house surrounded by friends

I love friends and family too

Why can’t everyone be a friend?

I love food

My favorite is a pickle

But I don’t like cucumbers; people think that’s weird

I don’t like lasagna either

I love the sun, the moon and the stars

I could stare up at them for hours and get lost in wonder

I love how the light glitters on the snow

But I don’t like the snow

I don’t like the cold

I would like snow if it wasn’t so cold

I love the warmth and the sun

I love the light

I love color and variety, especially in eyes

There can be so many different colored eyes

Deep brown, brilliant green, petrifying blue and a mix of them all

Some are even golden

As precious as the person who sees through them

I love country music and pop as well

I like rock and others are okay

I really don’t like rap, unless it has a good chorus

Then I can live with it

I love amusement parks

The feeling in your stomach as you plunge down and go around turns

Your hair flying behind you

It’s a great sensation, but I don’t like getting queasy afterward

I love cats, dogs, and wolves

I don’t like hairless cats

But I don’t like getting cat hair all over me when I pet one’s with hair

I like giving animals baths too

Unless they run away

I don’t like cold water

Unless it’s a hot summer day and it feels so good

And I don’t like it when the wind is blowing as you get out and it’s freezing cold

I don’t like when pools are dirty either

I love to run

I love soccer and baseball

But I don’t get to play them as much as I would like

I like to get dirty; I just don’t like cleaning up afterwards

I like my hair short

But it’s a pain when I exercise because it won’t stay up in a ponytail

It’s too short and always falls out in the back

So I have to find a comfortable middle that’s cute and can be put up

I love goofing off with my friends

Hanging out and having fun

Going crazy and running around

Doing things that don’t make any sense

Like at my birthday party, today

My friends surrounding me as we party our heart out

Celebrating about getting older, having fun

And just being
