The best last day I could ever hope for.

-I saw two little Asian girls playing around the ocean today. I watched them for probably a half hour. They reminded me of me and my big sister, when we were smaller.

-I saw a man holding a (probably) 7 year old girl with a life-jacket. I'm sure it was his daughter. You can just tell those things. She was holding onto him for dear life, while he kept walking out into and through the waves. He wasn't even to his waist yet, but she was scared to death. I remember feeling that terrified when I was little. I let myself freak myself out. ..It made me think that maybe we need more trust. Then again, when an adult says to you "you trust me, right?" ..that's usually the time a freak accident happens and they drop you, or you both get eaten by a shark. But.. Still, it makes me think that there are always going to be things that seem so huge, and scary, and dramatic and intense, but when you look back on it all later, it's not a big deal.

-One of my top mmoments in life so far: Standing in the ocean, water thigh-high, fingers grazing the top of the water, and looking up to watch an airplane close to me. The size about the tip of my thumb. Airplane and ocean. Airplane while in the ocean. It was perfect.

-I have decided. I want to be buried fairly deep underneath the sand, in a glass coffin, whilest wearing a really pretty dress. But I want the glass to disengrate after a while, so that when it does, fish start eating my legs, and so many will swarm over to do so, that when my body floats up, or is come across, my legs are covered in what looks like scales--but are actually little fish overlapping each other, all trying to get a piece of me. Mermaid status. I have spoken.

-My favorite things: ocean foam, laying in the shallow part of the water, letting my hair sink through the sand.

-I found a tiny mermaid's tail. I showed Dakota. I couldn't believe how I didn't realize that mermaids were TINY things. I figured, for whatever reason, that they were my size at least. I saw the tail though, so I was wrong. This is me publicly announcing it.
