I have this very beautiful purple heart-shaped necklace that my friend Hannah gave me. She gave it to me to show that we would always be friends. We have been through some hard times but in the end everything always works out. She has a very bubbly personality. She has a self-conscious attitude, like me, but she is very beautiful. She likes wearing dark clothing but her attitude brightens everything up. I love the fact that she can be having the worst day but if I ask her advice or ask her to listen to my problems, she will without hesitation. One instance is when I had just gotten out of a relationship with my boyfriend and she had been having issues with her dad. She put all that aside and listened to me for like 2 hours, and I returned the favor after I got done rambling. By the end of the conversation we were both crying our eyes out.
The one thing that really surprises me, but makes me happy, is that even though Hannah lives so far away, about an hour and a half, we still manage to stay very close. During 4th of July weekend, my parents, two step-brothers, Hannah, and I all went to a lake owned by Deltic Timber, the company my step-mom works for. My step-brothers went fishing, and Hannah and I sat on the dock trying to get up the courage to jump into the lake. Eventually we did, but I still regret it, because as soon as we jumped in Hannah went under the water. I was so scared. When she resurfaced, we both scrambled to get out of the water. I swear something was going to grab us both and pull us under. Thankfully we made it out, but we didn't go swimming again.
I will forever cherish the necklace she gave me, and I hope she will feel the same about her matching one. To me the necklace isn't just a pretty thing that hangs from my neck. It signifies so much more. I feel that it represents our relationship as friends: whole and very complex, but full of love. I will never forget the memories I have with Hannah. She is, and will always be, my closest friend and the sister I never had.
Over and Over-Three Days Grace
I feel it everyday it's all the same
It brings me down but I'm the one to blame
I've tried everything to get away
So here I go again
Chasing you down again
Why do I do this?
Over and over, over and over
I fall for you
Over and over, over and over
I try not to
It feels like everyday stays the same
It's dragging me down and I can't pull away
So here I go again
Chasing you down again
Why do I do this?
Over and over, over and over
I fall for you
Over and over, over and over
I try not to
Over and over, over and over
You make me fall for you
Over and over, over and over
You don't even try
So many thoughts that I can't get out of my head
I try to live without you, every time I do I feel dead
I know what's best for me
But I want you instead
I'll keep on wasting all my time
Over and over, over and over
I fall for you
Over and over, over and over
I try not to
Over and over, over and over
You make me fall for you
Over and over, over and over
You don't even try to
Foamy: Hey, look what I got from that internet auction site.
Germaine: What is it?
Foamy: It's a toaster from that haunted house in Amityville. Amityville!
Germaine: You bought a haunted toaster?
Foamy: Watch, this is cool, you put in regular old white bread and...
48 seconds later…
Germaine: Wheat toast? How did you end up with wheat toast?
Foamy: No one knows! What’s even cooler is when you put it wheat bread, you get pumpernickel, and when you put in pumpernickel you get a blueberry muffin!
Germaine: Bullshit.
Foamy: Oh yeah? Fine. It just so happens I have some pumpernickel bread right here.
56 seconds later…
Germaine: Whoa!
Foamy: See? Blueberry muffin.
Germaine: That's freaky. What happens if you put a bagel in there?
Foamy: Good question!
6,798 seconds later…
Germaine: Is... is that a pork chop?
Foamy: Oh man, what a jip. I was hoping it'd be one of those toasty cakes.
Germaine: Ooh, try waffles!
Foamy: Eh, you know, the auction description said not to use waffles.
Germaine: Why?
Foamy: I dunno, something about getting back a toasted human hand or something. Eh yeah, don't fuck around with it.
987 seconds later…
Germaine: Whoa, it's a toasted hand.
Foamy: What did I say about using waffles?!?
Foamy voice-over: The Amytiville toaster, make breakfast spooky, spooky talk from toaster, spooky eat me toast, yum yum yum, human hand.

We used to be so close
But now we've drifted apart
You told me we should both move on
But I just can't let you go
Please come back to me (2x)
Chorus:
Wishing you were here
To dry up all my tears
Wishing you were here
To drive away all my fears
Please tell me what I did wrong
And I will try to change
Cuz I'm just wishing you were here
Every time I see you with her
My heart breaks and I cry
I can't understand why you love her more than me
If you give me a chance, I will change for you
Please come back to me, back to me
Chorus:
Wihing you were here
To dry To dry up all my tears
Wishing you were here
To drive away all my fears
Please tell me what I did wrong
And i will try to change
But for now I'll be wishing you were here
Oh oh oh oh ohhh (3x)
