Day 1

Hi! I'm Emily :-)

I'm an 18 year old free living, creative soul living life as healthy and balanced as I can be. I like to make beauty through art; weather it be through photography, song lyrics, piano/guitar or dance...I love everything about expressing myself through this medium. I laugh a lot and give out love to everyone I meet. Staying healthy is a lifestyle : ) but knowing that balance is the key ingredient makes life so much simpler.

So this blog is a little piece of me where I can ramble on about my days and thoughts and my deepest darkest secrets...scary :0!

This weekend flew by with lots of love and neverending songs on the radio..on Friday I hung out with my brother and we ran out into the snow barefooted and laughed and laughed. Saturday was spent with a college boy and night turned into a candlelit bathroom singing Chamapgne Supernova with my favorite girls. Today, mom and I took a nice walk on the treadmill and did a Barbel Strength Class..it kicked some major butt. I'll be feelin it tomorrow. Then we headed down to downtown Cincinnati.

We drove by 1310 Sycamore St and I lost my breath. This is where I grew up. The big ominous marbel building hung over the street, the Fame Musical signs still hanging overhead the School for Creative and Performing Arts sign. It looked so gray and empty...and I thought back to the girl that I was before the school, before TTS, before life happened. I'm no longer that girl. And it feels so liberating, to escape from the trap, to be able to breath again. And I smiled as we sped past.

We spent the day wandering the Modern Art musuem and got lost in the spiraling stairs and laughed together. For lunch we grabbed TKY's @ Potbelly's on the square.
