I've just about wrapped up watching the post-conversation on Senator Ted Kennedy's memorial service that took place this evening in Boston, MA USA.
I've always had interest in the Kennedy family and their legacies. I've always felt bad for them as well, due to the tragedies that they've experienced over the years. One of the main reasons, originally, was due to the Special Olympics and everything that Eunice Kennedy had strived for. Upon learning more about her, I learned more about Ted Kennedy and admired the passion he has for the American people and the belief of equality. One of my most favourite moments I read about (and was mentioned at the memorial) is about a union worker who went up to him and said, "I heard everything they said about you last night.... about you never working a day in your life. Well, you aren't missing much!"

Maria Shriver's eulogy for her mother brought so many tears to my eyes... also, my great grandmother had passed away just days before Eunice, so I was in an emotional state overall.
If you haven't read or heard the eulogy, I suggested you take the time to read it.


I've yet to figure out how to fully operate my new camera. I really need to because Lisa-Marie is showing her face in a matter of 4 days!!! I'll need to take some pictures and also need to continue with the 365 project since my hiatus is coming to a near end.

I decided that I'd like to incorporate some odds and ends in here... I happen to buy a lot of make-up/beauty products (it's kinda hereditary) and would like to review them here, as well as review some more subjects on faith and the like. My faith is an enormous part of my existence, each and every day, and would like to put more of that in here too.

well, it's been a long week and I need to sleep. I have a big weekend ahead, but I'll be stopping by tomorrow.
