" God has risen."
Those are the words that go around a church, or in between families on Easter. It is true, God has risen. Over two thousand years ago. And thanks to that we are able to go to heaven. Easter is a celebration of new life and the freedom that we spiritually have because Jesus died for us. We can choose if we want to go to heaven or hell. Don't have to sacrifice animals, because Jesus' blood made all of our sins be forgiven with an honest prayer.
Easter is a "Thank you God" holiday. But for some strange reason, people made it about bunnies and eggs. Both of which I can understand partially to why, but not completely. How does a holiday about death, and rising or Jesus have any connection to bunnies? Eggs on the other hand are a symbol of new life, it's more of a tangible explanation to new life. Chicks are born from eggs and they produce more and more. So the only thing that connects Easter and Eggs is brand new life.
Bunnies are more of a spring thing then Easter. So why are they the ones bringing eggs to little children? I believe in having fun. And people can make bunnies bring eggs and Santa brings presents. But they have to remember the true meaning of Christmas and Easter, and not stray from it too far. Because even though we can include other aspects into those holidays they are still about God and his gifts to us. And it is our duty to honor them and be happy for getting them.
Happy Easter everyone!

Wisdom and Emotion
Easy, fun, wonderful, loving and absolutely amazing. That would have been my definition of life after the age of 18, when I was 10. Now living it, it doesn't seem to easy anymore. It gets hard. You never know whats behind the next corner. Kind of like driving on a highway for your first time. But unlike the highway like doesn't get boring or easy over time. You keep traveling on that road and never going back.
Eventually you get a hang of it. Or you think you do, but then something happens to make you go back. Unexpected and uninsured. Everything just goes back into a spin and it takes you forever to get out, just to get pulled back in. For me, a few things are coming together. And I'm grateful. Honestly. You can't get everything you want in life. And slowly I'm even learning that.
I'm not an easy person to be with or around. I get stupid. Very jealous and sometimes clingy and ignorant. I'm not perfect. But even though no one can be except for God, I still strive to be the best I can. Even if it doesn't show. But life takes a different toll on me, just like it does on everybody else. Some may say that I have it easy with a job, loving boyfriend, parents and siblings, a roof over my head, car and soon license. But for most of those things I had to work for. Yeah for some I expected them, but I learned that no one gives you anything for free, you have to earn all of it.
There are days I'll throw tantrums because something is difficult, but once I take my time to think about it and break it down it's quite easy.
Everyone is different, and everyone takes life in differently. But for everyone it is hard even if they don't show it. And sometimes having sympathy or just listening and keeping your mouth shut may be the best solution.
Everyone has problems with something different that someone else found easy to deal with, and you can't judge, how hard it will be to deal with a problem based on your own or someone else s experience. Patience and enjoyment it that key to life. And love. But love isn't just a feeling, it is a relationship and a choice. Something you always have to work for or it won't work for you. Same with life. It may be rough or it may be easy. It will throw rock and thorns in your way, but what you choose to do with them will change the outcome of your life.
Everyone learns through their life. Me, you, and that person in the dark corner. But learning also is different. You can learn from books or you can learn from practice. Either way it's your choice and your life.
I'm not saying I know a lot,actually barely anything at all, if anything at all. And all of this could just be my imagination. But life on this page is my opinion from personal experience. And I trust that for me I can work on my flaws and try to be happy. And maybe in the end a little ray of sunshine will break through the dark clouds or lies, deception and hatred of this world, and everything will be OK.

Your're a pain
Hey, rain,
You're a pain.
Why are you always pouring?
You are wet and droopy,
You make me mopey.
My happy mood goes away.
You're good for the world,
Only in small doses.
Yet you fall all the time.
Right now I hate you.
You make me sad.
Your drive me crazy.
And make me mad.
Cant you please just go away.
And come back another day.
Love, Vika

Im a pretty little bummble bee. With a stinger.
Everyone tends to see what they want to see in people. And I realized that one day when someone told me " I thought you were better then that, I guess I was wrong." To my opinion of someone else, someone who lied to me non stop, defriended my because I choose not to live with her. And no matter what the situation was, that person always found something to complain about. So I decided that everyone needed to see the real me, not who they wanted to see.
I'm nice, unless you piss me off, when you pick on my family, friends or judge my boyfriend. The we'll have problems.
I'm very open minded and get along with most people really well.
I'm russian, latvian and german, but so far only know how to speak russian.
My family drives me insane, ALL the time. But after calming down I love them with all of my heart.
I have one best friend. My boyfriend. The rest of the people I either have lost contact with or they choose to get on my bad side.
I adore purple. And blue and red. But I love just about any color.
I'm a coffee freak.
Crazy about animals.
Crazy in general.
Have 8 younger siblings.
My favorite person in the world at that time died on my 15th birthday.
I complain, but when it become excessive I try to stop.
I'm very good at making things up on the spot. Used to find it easier to come up with a lie then tell the truth, but that was brought out of me quite quickly.
I love art, music and nature.
Hiking,biking,swimming and camping are a blast.
Adore seafood, especially sushi.
I love fall, its my favorite season. But I like winter next.
I like different types of music. Sometimes even country, but rarely. My favorite bands are Cake and Avenge Sevenfold.
I plan on going to school for massage in the fall.
I want to marry my boyfriend, and am very sick of people being judgmental of him. Especially my family. He is the best guy in the whole world.
I hate people that talk crap about me behind my back. If you have something to say, say it to my face.
I hate snakes.
I am addicted to weird shows but love dark and psychological stuff when I'm with Jered. My brain shuts down at home.
I am a sadomasochist.
I like standing up for people and to people if I have a problem, but when it's not worth it, then it's not worth it.
I screwed up 2 years of my school life because I didn't know how to handle things.
If you don't like me, that's your problem.
I work at a laundry place.
I don't have my license but have an adorable car.
I live in a sucky sucky world filled with sucky sucky people. And somedays I'm one of those sucky people. Sometimes for five days at a time.
I enjoy learning,cuddling, kissing and hugging.Ect....
There are plenty more things I could say, but I learn new things about myself every day. I try not to judge other people. If you have questions just ask, and I'll be more then happy to answer.

Get over it
Every day we live our life. It may go by fast, and it may go by slow. But in reality its the way we live it that counts. Everyone has things in life that are hard, and may take sometime to get through, but that's why we have friends. To help us through them. To be there when we want to talk, to just listen and to be there to give us advice when they have gone through it too. But not to be there to empathize us.
We usually don't try to throw a pity party, unless we are hungry for attention. But that just means you need a hobby. When we have a problem and write or talk about it, it makes us feel better when either we figure out how to get out of it or someone gives us an idea. We love responses and appreciate all of them, but sometimes when someone else tells us that they went through it too, it doesn't help us in anyway. We'll accept what they say. But it's no use to us.
When someone responds to something we have a problem with, they have to realize that they need to think about what they say before they actually say it. And when we don't thank them whole halfheartedly for their response, it doesn't automatically mean we didn't appreciate it even a little. It just means that it wasn't what we needed to hear.
It isn't fair when you write about your feelings, the feelings you are sharing with the world, and someone responds, and when you give them an answer that they aren't satisfied with, that they immediately judge you. It makes them an asshole. Because they may have gone through what you have, but they may have had help, and instead of giving you advice they just told you they went through it too. That's not helpful and they have no right to get pissed because you may not have been completely happy with their answer.
People need to stop being selfish and full of them selves, and expect everyone to like what they say. When someone asks for responses on what they have to say, weather they are mean or nice, they don't say that they will love them to death. And people giving responses need to realize that. Instead of being hypocritical, pety little brats, they need to accept that what they wrote may not have been the most helpful, and when the person they wrote to doesn't give you and huge thank you, you need to look at the responses you give them when they respond to your writing.
Just something to think about.
With all my love, tweak.

Valentines Day
As Valentines day is rapidly approaching, so are the plans and the gifts of heartfelt love or guilt are bough. Valentines Day is considered a day to love and be loved by one person or many. As everyone should know, this day was started because of Saint Valentine who decided to marry people because it wasn't allowed, and he believed that true love shouldn't be stopped. He got caught and sent to jail. And there he had a friend who was a girl. She kept him company until he died on Valentines Day, and before he died, he sent her a note sighed "Love, your Valentine". And from that day on people decided that they were going to write love poems and send gifts to their loved ones in the memory of this man.
But now people expect for gifts and candy to be given to them, and that's how they feel affection is being shown to them. And everyone goes all out to celebrate this holiday. It is nice to receive a note or a flower from someone special, everyone loves it. But that's what it should be. Special. Not expected. When you love someone and want to show them you love them, you can do it any day. The only difference with Valentines day is that everyone is doing it. Everyone is buying chocolate, and roses and teddy bears. Everyone. Why not get those things on other days, why does this day have to be the only one? I believe that people shouldn't spend all this money to buy someone what everyone else is getting, they should be individual and make something or do something or buy something on a different day. What I want for Valentines Day is a kiss, a sweet remark, no chocolate or flowers. Just time with my loved one. Of course it is always nice to get those things, but love is about passion not things.
When you go shopping for Valentines Day ask yourself what would mean the world to the person you love? Is it a day at the Spa, a clean house, a nice dinner or maybe their favorite flowers. Not roses. Do something individual.
Happy Valentines Day,

College Park
College park is a video blog done by my boyfriend, and also the name of the song which is the theme song of the blog. It is amazing and beautiful, but what pierces me to the heart is the intro video. Its a video of everyone in his family, friends and people he met once or twice, but everyone in those pictures is having a blast,most of them were captured when on wasn't looking. Its amazing and makes me want to cry when I watch that video, because it makes me realize that our lives aren't scripts or book by book plays that we make them out to be. But instead adventures and precious memories. Because once those people are gone those memories are the only thing we will have.
People don't seem to realize that the point of life isn't to work and save up everything you have, it's to enjoy yourself. Yeah that's not the meaning of life, because we are too human to understand the meaning of life, but we are only human and aren't perfect.So why not instead of trying to fit in or put all that trouble to show the most popular person in your high school that you made something of yourself, we try to actually live.
We have lost the child within our self that always tried to have adventures and wanted to learn new things about life, and instead of looking at boring facts, they used their imagination to come up with weird explanations to everything. But they were happy. And we aren't. Looking back at those pictures I realized that life is simple not easy, as someone super smart that I know, once said. All you have to do is enjoy yourself in everything you do. I know my mission, to get that girl that was laughing with her friend at graduation even though her life was falling apart.
Love you all

They Rape You Of Your Childhood
That saying refers to both a song and my life. Sadly the second one is the reason why its here.
I am the eldest of nine kids. Yes nine, not eight not ten. Nine. My parents wanted a lot of children but before they had so many they didn't consider the fact that they will have to raise them properly. My dad had 9 or 10 siblings, I forget how many. And he was the third from the youngest. So he had a bunch of siblings to look out for him and only 2 to watch over and learn how his parents raised them. My mom was the only child from both of her parents but has 2 half sisters she never met, so she got everything she wanted and never had to share or have responsibility. My dad was the one who took care of me until my mom learned. That took a little bit.
But as soon as I has a younger brother responsibility started falling on me. Because my dad was always at work and we had a farm I had to learn to baby sit, clean and help my mom with anything she needed as well as help my dad with the farm in the summer. And the only reward I got for always working was permission for superiority. I was a second mother to these kids and that kind of backfired. I'm not gonna lie, I love being in charge and be able to tell them to do what ever I want as long as it doesn't go against my parents rules. But that left me with nothing.
My mom had a girl 2 years later and twins 11 months later and then 4 more kids every year after that, the last 2 being twins once again. So she needed my help all of the time. I was what she called me " her second right hand" I was always there and always helping. I learned a lot about what to do and not do when it comes to kids and the basic things about raising them properly. But during all that time I had no time to be a kid, no time to play and no time to be the same as those kids, I was their protector and it was my job to look out for them 24/7. And from that I learned that the parents should be parents and the kids, kids. You can't put so much responsibility on a three year old and expect them to feel equal to their siblings.
As I grew older my parents thought all the kids that they can control the kids under their age but don't have to take care of them because I was around. For some reason they didn't lie responsibility on all of the kids to take care of each other, just on me. And thanks to that the kids became uncontrollable. They started having younger siblings bring them stuff when they didn't want to get it, or do their chores when my parents decided to divide them. And yell at each other just because they were older and older meant superior. But when someone picked on our younger kids from the neighborhood they weren't there to protect them, instead to mock and make fun of them.
I think my parents put too much time into making the kids and not raising me. And I learn from that, but just hope that they do too. Soon. And if you have kids, do yourself a favor and take time to know them and be responsible for them, do not put all the responsibility on the kids and treat them as equals and have them treat each other the same way. Feeling power and having power never brings any good if you use it badly.

Check It Out
I noticed a while ago that some people are super close minded. It's annoying but I know they cant help themselves. The day it really ticked me off was when I decided to let the world know about a certain band called "My Torn Genes". But even when you try to persuade people to listen to it they won't unless they think that it is their idea. Which of course 99.9 percent of the time it's not. But hey who's counting. The thing is, that people only listen and read what they know. And if it's out side of the box they are too scared to check it out and open their mind to it. Which is kind of sad.
In reality people should be fawning over everything they see and hear. Not believe it but at least be curious. But they are not. Unless its something crappy about someone famous. Then everyone is up their ass trying to find out everything they can. Other then that they are clammed up in their little world. I'm not going to lie. There are things I'm afraid to try too. But I try to over come my fears and think that maybe it will be good, or fun and just give it a shot. I'm sure a lot of people are that way, but a lot of them aren't.
There are things in life that shouldn't be done, like murder and theft and rape. But those are rules of morality. Being judgmental and not giving a shot to something like music or a movie is being rude.You can't believe something is good or bad by hearing about it from others. You have to check it out on your own. And a lot of people just don't want to. They are really missing out. Its human nature to connect with others, then why not give a chance to something that isn't you? Why not seek thrill and adventure when it comes to certain things like music, art and movies? Your life will be so much more interesting and fun. You will be bored less. If you just open your eyes and look at the things around you. And in the end you might find something you actually enjoy.
Anyway would you all be dolls and check out this great band that started this whole thing? Go to www.myspace.com/mytorngenes.
Who knows it might be the next big thing. Everything big was small at one point.

Being judgmental and not giving a shot to something like music or a movie is being rude.You can't believe something is good or bad by hearing about it from others. You have to check it out on your own. And a lot of people just don't want to. They are really missing out. Its human nature to connect with others, then why not give a chance to something that isn't you? Why not seek thrill and adventure when it comes to certain things like music, art and movies? Your life will be so much more interesting and fun. You will be bored less. If you just open your eyes and look at the things around you. And in the end you might find something you actually enjoy.
Anyway would you all be dolls and check out this great band that started this whole thing? Go to www.myspace.com/mytorngenes.
Who knows it might be the next big thing. Everything big was small at one point.

A Perfect Parent????
Parents. They are so stressful and ignorant it makes me want to quack out of anger. I know that they try their best and sometimes their best is really the best, but there are times when their kid needs to learn from their own mistakes.
My parents used to be full of rules and wouldn't let me do anything like wear make up, date or stay over at friends house. They became more lenient with time, but only because I decided to disobey them. I felt bad, but I really needed to get out of this bubble of protection and learn about life myself. Because their way I would have never learned about anything. Of course with time I had my friends and my loving boyfriend to help corrupt me.:D And I love it.
You see dear readers, the thing is that a lot of parents try to keep their kids from the world all of their life, or until they legally can't anymore. And when those kids, all sheltered and pampered go out into our world they are clueless about what to do and how to behave. They let everyone crush them within minutes and break their spirits. Why? Because their parents figured that they knew that the world was bad and they would keep them from it as long as possible. But those kids after a certain point should have been able to see the world little by little and learn about it little by little so that when they were old enough to go out on their own, they would be able to take care of them selves and make their parents proud.
My parents realized this a little bit too late. Because with them, I was the sheltered one and after me the rest of the kids got to do what ever they pleased, and my parents lost control. There was no middle where they would still keep certain things out of their reach and certain things within. Like rated R movies. Most kids wait until they are either mature or 17 to watch them. Our 8 yr olds have been watching them for a while. And my parents gave up control.
I'm not trying to say that every parent is like that or its my parents fault for their parenting. It is, but I have to cut them some slack because no one is perfect and when you have 9 kids it is kind of hard to teach them the right things and catch them before they get too far away. But I do believe that when you have a child, you should have a medium of what you will teach them and what you wont. But everything has to be taught eventually.
