Scary Cat: Like I mentioned above Iām afraid of Lighting storms, they make me curl up in a ball and cover my ears. I guess now Iām afraid of dying. Never before have I been afraid or even thought about it, but being diagnosed with Cancer has opened my eyes and made me now fear death, there is so much more stuff I want to do. I guess Iām afraid of fire also, for the same reason of Thunder storms. I can handle small flames like candles and stuff but when things like fireplaces I stand far away.
My life in a shell:
I was born in a little hick town in BC Canada. It is just a little close nit community where you knew everyone by name and where friends with everyone. But I really didnāt get to be raised there, though I visit it often for all our family lives there. Anyways Dad got promoted and moved to New York City, which was a big change to my family. I was in kindergarten so really didnāt know anything but N.Y.C, anyway my parents still taught me the way of the town so to speak too keep me that little country girl. Each summer I would go back to my home town for a month and some times even bring my friends back with me. While I was at home in New York I would pin for the country, I guess Iām just a country girl at heart. I love being outside and in the forest or wide open, I hate being inside for too long. Anyway life was pretty great growing up, not that we where rich but my parents loved me and I had friends so I think it is perfect. I mean sure we got into fights and sure I wanted to run away from my parents, but who doesnāt? So I guess Iām saying there isnāt much interesting about my life, I have a normal life nothing special. I made friends, I went to school, I fought with my parents, tried to stay up later or get out of chores. Life was pretty normal; I was just your average girl.
Growing up I really got into music, my dad being in a band himself. I learned how to sign, how to play pretty much any instrument and how to dance. But my passion was for the drums, something about them got my heart racing. I mean who doesnāt love banging on drums and being loud and crazy. It is amazing the high I get from playing the drums. IT was a way for me to really express myself and often times to get out my anger. My drums have been like my teddy bear, with me since I was a little kid and always there when I was mad or sad or happy. So as you can guess it wasnāt such a big surprise that I joined a band. I was in high school where I meet my fellow band mates and friends and we made a band together. IT went awesome for we stuck together threw the years, growing closer as friends to the point I canāt expect life without them. Now we really where not that famous, just you know playing small gigs and what not, I thought it would just be a little past time thing. But some how we hit it big, donāt ask me how. So now our band is famous and we are known around the world. It is kind of hard for me to be without my parents for they couldnāt move like I did to Europe because of their job. So when I can I go visit them and also go back to BC, it is getting more and more hard.
Now life I thought was perfect, nothing could go wrong. But well I guess I had to meet bad luck, everyone doesā¦.mine is just kind of big. I guess I had a whole life time of bad luck to make up for and it just kind of waited to spring a big load on me. What am I getting at? Well lets start from the beginning. For about a month now I have been feeling kind of sick. You know being tired, losing weight, not eating much and finding strange bruises on my body. I kind of brushed it off as the flu, decided to get lots of sleep and it would go away. But after a month of not getting rid of the flu I went to the doctors to see what he could do, when youāre a famous drummer you canāt afford to get sick. Anyways turns out I have something more then the flu, I have leukemia. I went into shock upon hearing this so took too my room for a weak, telling my band mates and friends I was just sick. Here I lived in self pity, trying to get a hold of myself. A week later I came out, pretending everything is fine and dandy. I havenāt told anyone I have Cancer and plan to keep it a secret as long as I can. I donāt know how long it will work but Iām hoping it will. I have a week until I start my treatment, maybe in that time I will finally tell themā¦but I donāt think I will. Specially now that we are staying with this other band and I think my band mates will be more stressed, they donāt need to worry about me.
My therapist says I'm: NaĆÆve. That one word can pretty much sum me up. I believe that there is good in everyone, and everyone deserves a second change, that someone can always change for the better. I also believe that everything will become better, that things will always become alright no matter how bad it gets.
Ā»--- Sunny/bright. Iām probably the happiest girl you know. I donāt really let things get to me, and usually manage to smile threw everything. I donāt really get upset and most of the time Iām always happy. I try to always smile, no matter what.
Ā»--- Nice. Iām very nice I guess you can say, not having a mean bone in my body. I donāt really like rising my voice and if I get mad at someone you know you did something wrong for it doesnāt happen often, but good news is that I donāt stay mad long.
Ā»--- Loyal. I will stick with my friends no matter what, and will do anything to make sure we stick together. I put my friends always before myself, their happiness always comes first. I will do anything to make sure they are not sad, including hiding up my fears. Like I mentioned I donāt get mad, and usually the only time I do is when someone is after my friends so to speak.
Ā»--- Brave. It is not a trait I usually put with myself but Iām starting to figure out Iām pretty brave. I will face anything for the benefit of my friends but I always thought that was being loyal. But with my braveness I found it out when I found I had Cancer. Iām learning to live life like it is normal and a smile on my face, even though all I want to do is curl up in a ball Iām so afraid. But Iāll still play my music and do my treatments, hoping I will get better.
I want it all: I love the country and wide open spaces. I enjoy being out in nature, no matter if it is a forest, a flower garden or just a field, as long as it is nature. I love any kind of animal but I love horses most of all (country girl Iām). I like Lakes and Rivers, just watching them or swimming in them, I find oceans too big for me. Iām an early riser and go to bed late just for the joy of watching the sun rise and the sun set. Oh you should probably know I love little kids, I have such a soft spot for them and want some of my own. I also love ice cream and gummy candies!!
Bring it closer, and you'll pay: OK I wonāt eat meat for Iām a vegetarian, so I pretty much hate it. Iām absolutely afraid of thunderstorms for when I was little I was sleeping in the stables in BC and it got hit with lightening and caught on fire; I have course was trapped inside having tried to save all the horses. So now Iām afraid of them. I canāt be inside for long times other wise I get very fidgety. I donāt care if it is on a balcony; I just have to be outside. I will get very upset when I see my friends upset or mad or someone picking on them canāt stand it. I hate tears, with myself and others; I think there is always a better thing to do then cry. I canāt stand sour candy; it just kind of makes me gag for some reason. Mean people make me mad which is strange for I donāt get mad, so well donāt be mean . When people feel sorry for me it just gets on my nerves and Iāll probably snap at them, it just doesnāt sit well with me. And also I canāt stand being stared at for too long. I mean I can stand it when Iām on stage, or because Iām famous. But if people just stare at me for no reason I go shy.
