Guaranteed.

Eddie Vedder, I admire you very much. I like your sound and I love your lyrics. I am inspired by the rhythm and the movement of Hard Sun, Rise, and Guaranteed, for example. Eddie Vedder, your voice and the songs- they are deep, true, romantic, soothing, and good. I want to climb the mountains, scale the terrain, and run for miles in the forest when I think of going Into The Wild. Wind in my hair, I feel part of everywhere. Oh but on one point I disagree... on bended knees is the only way to be free.

It is so good to be home. I love my family so much! I've been back and forth between Athens and Atlanta since I graduated on May 8th and even though it's a lot of driving, it's wonderful to spend time with my wonderful friends in Athens and to catch up with folks in Johns Creek. I love being home because the memories of my house - the smells, sounds, familiarities, routines, and people - the memories are comforting. I love being home because my mom makes home-cooked meals with entirely too big portions because she loves to serve and comfort us. I love being home because I get to spend quality time with my mom, dad, and brothers. I love laying by the pool, reading, staying up too late, going to bed too early, and relaxing. It is such a blessing to be home.
