Changing my life

Meet Elin Westin. She has been living with me and my family for the last seven months. I am ashamed to admit it has taken us about five or six of those months to realize we have so much fun together and we are so alike. Elin plays guitar and sings beautiful songs. She is teaching me how to play guitar. This girl is basically my big sister. In two months she is leaving to go back home and I'm very sad about this. She is my best friend and partner in crime. On the bright side though I am going to make a trip to Sweden. Elin has changed my life. Since she has been here things in my family are a bit better, which is great considering how they were, so I have to thank her for that. If anyone knows Elin then you probably know that she doesn't judge you. Least I don't ever feel judged. She is an awesome person to be around and I am so happy she came into my life. I know that even when she leaves we will be close and she will always be a sister to me.




This is Mr. Ben Moore. In the past month he has changed my life just as much. If you ever feel like just being yourself and don't know who you can be that with, go see Ben. I have never been more of myself then I am with this kid. It's the best feeling. He is also a musician. Plays a few different instruments and sings. He and Elin play together at a few great places around this town. Ben and I used to go to the same school yet we didn't really talk, knew of each other but that's about it right.. Well basically thanks to Elin, Ben and I are good friends. I am sad that we didn't talk to each other before this year but glad we do now. He could also be another partner in crime of mine haha. Best part is he lives just done the road a ways from me, though he goes to school in Elko now. Ben has made me realize that I don't want to be anyone else but myself, I'm not going to keep changing who I am to be someone I'm really not for those around me. Some of my happiest times are with this kid and Elin as well. I am so thankful for them. I believe more with them and I am myself with them. You couldn't have better friends then those you are yourself around.

Side note: Elin drew his tattoo in this picture and I also must say I love this picture of him. [bandana :) ]
