the post for nyna


I waited until the 26th so that it could be a "random post about you" and not a birthday post :D
it all started when i was born...and i first met nyna.

she was a real chump from day one.
sang to jim and i when we were grumpy from waking up from nap.
made us "crunchy corn spread" which was probably the tastiest thing we'd ever had.
played with catapillers for hours with us (although it gave her hives)
played "kids corner" with us every afternoon (untill we wore a hole in dads tarp)
amused me on our "long" trips to nagorkot
sang "from the east winds to the west winds" to cheer us up.
Memorized the book Seven Keys and then told us that she was making it up as she went along
painted our faces for each clown birthday party
helped us "find what to wear" before our big "gigs" haha
taught us how to put on make up
took us witnessing (i remember having huge arguments with Jimi and Juls on who would get to go with Nyna on the scooter....and who had to walk to visit Mr. Beeshel Bazaar with Mom..heh)
came home from Italy to save Julie and I from crying our eyes out all Christmas :P
I can't count the amount of times Nyna told me "NO let me pay for it, one day when you're rich you can pay for everything for me"
I've made a lot of "lists" with Nines..shes good at that.

...and thats all my brain can muster right now.

i love you Nyna. wishing you the best new year ever ..you deserve it.

fat boy slim



happy birthday jimi. i remembered this meaningful story (as if it were yesterday) you christie and i were watching tv in the hotel as usual when...
(julie:) people probably just think of me as the uglier sister.
(christie:) no way im the uglier one.
(julie:) no im pretty sure i am
(christie:) no i am...
(jimi:) shut up! your both the uglier sister.

so honest! you could always defuse our stupid arguments. you can laugh when everything is turning to shit and always find something to joke about. you are an amazing drummer and have a wonderful style that is NOT emo. you hate it when we talk about you in third person when your in the room. your pointaphobic and claustrophobic. but the best is that you really dont care what other people think about you. and i know i was only supposed to say joseph lords prayer but maybe next year i will have it down. happy birthday!! --julie
something to remember the old days...
