As Time Passes On...

To be truthful, I didn't realize I took this long to post again. To me it feels as if my last post happened just last week. All I knew this morning walking into work was it was Tuesday, I was scheduled 6-2, and it was fall. Then suddenly it hit me when I looked at my clock in ticket... It was November 5th!!! I couldn't believe it. These past few weeks have gone by so fast I forgot time was a constant thing. I don't know what made me forget that no matter what I'm doing time is still ticking by, but somehow I forgot time existed.

Some might say that's a good thing because that means I'm enjoying myself. Ya know, the whole time flies by when you're having fun saying? I am enjoying working and finally have a social life again, yet I'm not so sure I want time to pass by as quick.

I think about how my grandpa, whom I call Pappy, just passed away and how I can remember like it was yesterday I was at him and my ma's (grandma's) house. I was riding my bike around the block when my bike tire got stuck in a crack and me being me I just kept pedaling thinking my bike would eventually move. Now that I think about it. They ended up looking for me due to the fact that I didn't realize time had gone by so quick. My point is, that's from when I was like 5 (maybe even younger) and now he's gone? It's like time moved to quick for him?

I don't want time to move to quick for me.

I really enjoy being young and my only responsibilities being the few bills I have and to show up to work on time. It scares me to think that before you know it, I'll probably have a house and a husband. I'm sure I'll enjoy my life then too. I just want a little bit more time to be.... just, well, Emily.

Soon, I'll have to start attending college. In January, that is. I'm not sure what's going to happen either. Part of me wants to chase my dream of being a fashion designer and the other part says I should get a more subtle job. I guess, only time will tell.

That's my worst nightmare right now. Time.

The Ohio Rennassance Festival!

I have to apologize it's taken me so long to post. I meant to do so all week, but with my new job it slipped my mind. I am literally about to fall asleep right now and it's only 6 when I don't go to bed until 9. I bet I'm the only 20-year-old in Indiana who goes to bed that early???

Anyway! Over one weekend I was able to attend my favorite event of the year, The Ohio Renaissance Festival! I've been able to attend this festival since I was little. I remember when I was really little and I went to go get knighted by the queen and then I was aloud to buy a princess hat. I always thought I was so cool.

This is a blast from the past and a wonderful place to take the family! There is literally something for everyone! The kids can get knighted a knight or princess, while the adults enjoy one of the shows. If I might add check out the Kamikaze Fireflies! They're my favorite. I love how they mix pop culture in with their show. They use acrobats, whips, juggling, and fire for their tricks!


^Let's be truthful, who would want to see how he got to be standing on top of a member of the audience?^

I was even lucky enough to catch a picture with the female of the group, her name is Casey... or is it Kasey? I don't know but hey, I got a photo! 


Not only were the shows great, but so were some of the games. I was able to get out of my girly comfort zone and try my hand a archery! I also threw a couple axes but, sadly forgot to ask my boyfriend to take some photos. Boo! My boyfriend, Johnny, was able to throw stars, knives, axes... I was a little scared to stand at the "watching zone" behind him. Haha!


^The ground, also know as where most of my arrows hit.^



Johnny even went ahead and bought a couple throwing knifes. His excuse is he's going to learn. Now just to wait for the excuse on how he doesn't have time or how he doesn't know where to start. At least they weren't too expensive! I was able to buy a tiara (of course) and some more of my favorite NatureCraft Lip Butter. Igot "Sex on the Peach" this time. ALSO!!! I told them I wrote about them in this post and they gave me all they're information so everyone can find them!


You can also find them on Facebook (click here!) and Twitter! (click here!)

It was an amazing day! Now it's time for me to finish my coffee and head to bed. I'm so tired from today this coffee isn't even helping!
