Hello all. Even though I was of legal age, it seems that the FBI is willing to hear from older “victims” to see if any information can help with the case. Tomorrow, I am going to call. I know I’ve urged others to go forward, but it was different when I thought I couldn’t. I can feel the butterflies starting to emerge already. I’m going to brave though in hopes of helping get justice for the younger girls involved. Won’t you join me?
I’ve decided that the only way to motivate myself to learn how to make awesome cocktails is to blog about it. Here’s the link: http://cocktailaweek.tumblr.com/

3. Tell me about the last dream you remember having.
The last dream I remember is one where I was getting it on with this guy I used to like, and it was weird because I kept telling him I didn’t want a one night stand. He also talked about liking a girl that he doesn’t even know irl. It was also in a hotel and other stuff was going on.
6. What comes to mind when I say cabbage
Spring rolls. I freaking love those things.
15. Are your parents strict?
Medium. They’re pretty chill. I never had a curfew, but I wasn’t allowed to date until 16. They are more strict since I drink now.
18. Who sits in behind you in your math class?
I’m not in a math class, and the last math class I had no one sat behind me. The last person who sat behind me in a math class was Jessica Rice, and you sat to my left!
21. Are you sarcastic?
Yes. You look like a butt.
Anonymous asked: The only thing he ever did was reply to one of my comments. I wrote "I wish I could come see you live, but I can't :(" To which he replied "Why? Can I call your parents or something?" And I know that this is no where near the pain you are experiencing but I still feel upset about the whole thing...
You have every right to be upset. He did something awful. You don’t have to be directly involved to feel hurt or betrayed. You gave him support, and what did he do? He threw that all away in order to get off. (Sorry to be kind of crude, but it’s true.) My experience with Mike was such a long time ago that, for the most part, I am healed. It hurts me the most that he did this to 15 and 16 year olds. I think the best way for all of us who have been hurt by his actions to heal is to support the younger victims. There are plenty that haven’t come forward legally and encouraging them to bring forth evidence is important. I say “encourage” and not “pressure.” Bringing forward a case against him can be very scary and scarring, but if a girl feels that a lot of people have her back, she is more likely to be brave enough to try.
