What kind of judgements would you guys give me if I told you that these two men were the biggest crushes I had on an irl person as a young 10-ish year old?

Ikevamp Boys In Vegas
Tumblr media
Leonardo:
Ok Leo wouldn’t really be into the expensive nightlife part of Vegas. He’d probably like the old bars and pubs in downtown Vegas where all the original casinos are. He’d also like to explore the nearby mining ghost downs (Rhyolite Ghost Town). (He’d also take everyone to the ghost tours of those places at night). He would probably just wake up and leave the hotel and when all the others wake up they can’t find him but don’t really question it since they probably expected him to go off exploring on his own. He would also go to the Neon Graveyard and Madame Tussaud’s + any other cool art display with Vincent and Theo. He would take MC to the gondolas in the Venetian hotel. They would also go to the Ceaser’s Palace mall and just run around there for hours looking at different stores and get lost. He’d like the Avengers Exhibit and he’d try to make some of the things he saw there. (There was also a Da Vinci exhibit that MC would definitely take him to see). One time Leo and Dazai were smoking together at a fancy rooftop bar and ended up sharing a blunt with Snoop Dogg. Both of them wake up the next day thinking it was a fever dream. (Listen I just really think Leo and Snoop Dogg would be good friends. They are basically the same person)
Arthur:
He would immediately go to an expensive rooftop bar to flirt with women (If MC isn't part of this). His favorite places would be the strip clubs and bars (he drags Theo with him). He and Comte go to a Burlesque club together. He got kicked out of a bar once because he was unknowingly hitting on someone’s wife. This boy would also take Theo Gucci shopping with him. The two of them will probably get into several bar fights and either get kicked out or arrested. (Comte bails them out). He would take pictures with every showgirl he meets and gets Theo in on some of them (Theo is just standing there glaring at the camera with his arms crossed). He loved going to the Pitbull concert, wants to be called Mr. Worldwide now but no one will call him that. He would also go to Casinos and somehow win big to impress MC. Security is keeping an eye on him.
Comte:
One of the chillest ones on the trip. He just goes to fancy restaurants and watches Cirque Du Soliel shows. Every time you see him he just has a glass of expensive wine. He takes Leo to clubs with him, even though they just sit by the bar the whole time having a drinking competition. Comte also runs into Arthur at a Burlesque club. (This man would be into burlesque you can’t tell me otherwise).  He mostly just manages everyone’s schedule, helps them book tickets for whatever they want to do, and occasionally bails people out. Also goes to Italian restaurants with Leo (because Vegas has the best Italian food I’ve ever had ong) What? No ofc its not a date. He buys MC a new dress and leaves it on her bed with a note telling her to be ready by 6 and takes her to an exclusive restaurant in a limo. He goes all out for their date.
Shakespeare:
Bruh he would absolutely LOVE all the different shows. The whole environment that THRIVES off entertainment. This would be his dream city. He would somehow get backstage for a Variety show and help them add scenes and dance numbers. He’d come back with so many ideas for his own plays. He would also follow around some of the wilder residents to see if they do something he can include in his plays. I also believe he’d somehow find the most romantic places to take MC if she was there with them. He would also be interested in the Mob Museum and the mafia history. He would LOVE Criss Angel’s Mindfreak show (No I’m not just saying that because I love it too)
Napoleon: 
I think he would like exploring the various hotels more than going out clubbing. Let’s be honest, Comte would get the super expensive suites so Napoleon would just be sleeping in half the day. He would use it as a chance to unwind and would take full advantage of the room service and spas. He would go to the pool with MC and Sebastian. I can see him being everyone’s designated photographer and bag holder. If MC wants to go somewhere he would come with her to make sure she gets there safely (The amount of creepy old men who have stared at me when I walk through casinos is gross).
Vincent: 
He and Theo would definitely go to the Neon Graveyard with Leo. They would also love seeing the abstract art pieces and murals that are all over downtown Las Vegas. He would be so amazed seeing the seasonal decorations in the Bellagio hotel. MC would take him to the Van Gogh art gallery so he and Theo could see how successful his art has become. He also like exploring the hotel with everyone and going to the pool to relax. He would take amazing pictures of MC and make an album for her. One time he was walking to a show with everyone when a few showgirls asked if he wanted to take a picture. And being the absolute angel he is, he told them how beautiful they are and just had the most wholesome heart- stealing interaction with them. 
Theo:
He would go to old bars and pubs with Leo and Arthur in downtown Vegas (They got into a bar fight that Leo helped them hide from Comte). Arthur would drag him to various clubs but I think he would have an overall artistic appreciation for Burlesque. I think he’d be happy to see that artistic expression isn't being censored anymore like it was in his time. MC would take him and Vincent to the Van Gogh exhibit. He would also love the different murals and abstract art that's all over downtown Las Vegas. MC would buy him one of those glass art sculptures and he would be all “oh Hondje brought me a toy?” but he would actually be super touched and would blush when she gave it to him. Arthur would also drag him into taking pictures with various showgirls and then would get jealous when Theo gets more attention from them (even though Theo isn’t a big fan of it).
Isaac:
Isaac would go to all the different museum exhibits with Leo, MC, and the Van Gogh. He would also enjoy the Avengers Exhibit because of all the crazy technology and scientific concepts used in creating it. He would also go to the spas with Napoleon and MC because that boy needs to relax himself. I think most of the time he would either stick with Leo, Napoleon or MC because Vegas is... a lot and he might get overwhelmed. Arthur would rope him into taking a picture with the Showgirls and he would be flustered for the rest of the day. He mostly just gets dragged into whatever activities the others are doing.
Dazai:
Dazai would love all the different comedy shows. He would also be exploring the hotels but instead of finding the spa he would find the most random hidden storage areas and rooms of the hotel. By the end of the trip he would somehow know the whole hotel inside out. One time he went missing and no one could find them until he came down the elevator with this rich elderly couple who gave him a tour of their whole VIP floor. He would also go out to bars with Leo in the middle of the night and they’d come back and just smoke together on the balcony. He would find the best obscure dessert places in the whole city and somehow make friends with a celebrity that he met purely by accident. (He just shows up to lunch with Pitbull one day and he’s like “yeah I just met him in the bathroom”. MC and Sebastian are  s h o o k)
Mozart:
Mozart would be very interested in seeing the street musicians and how they're able to play songs from everyday objects.He, Comte, and MC go shopping together and then they’d go to exclusive lounges together. He gets dragged to clubs by everyone but god forbid he gets touched by a sweaty person dancing, he will LOOSE IT. He gives pointers to the DJs and he actually likes listening to different genres of music. (Funny story, one time my dad went to a club in Vegas where Calvin Harris was DJing and he gave him tips on how to mix songs. He had no idea who Calvin Harris was). Mozart loves the spa and huge bathrooms, hates casinos since he thinks they're noisy and filthy. He goes to the mall and buys expensive skincare items. 
Jean:
Poor boy is so lost. Just like Isaac he kind of gets dragged everywhere. He likes going to the lounges with MC and Mozart but most of the time he will just want to enjoy the hotel room alone. MC doesn't want him to be alone the whole time so she takes him to see the Bellagio decorations and takes adorable candid pictures of him while he's there. He is amazed at how they were able to create something like that. He’s also amazed at the fountain show that MC takes him to at night. Mozart and MC take Jean with them when they goes shopping and he buys Jean some nice things (because he DESERVES IT). Would avoid clubs at all costs and if he somehow gets dragged there by everyone he leaves the first chance he gets.
Sebastian:
Like Shakespeare, Sebastian also follows around the residents, seeing how they react to such a new environment. He takes notes on all their activities and exchanges info with Shakespeare. He made all the reservations and keeps track of everyone’s itinerary. He is the only other person who knows about Arthur and Theo’s bar fight because Leo told him in exchange for modern cigarettes. He was so excited when Napoleon asked him to join him in their spa trip. Most of the time Sebastian goes with Comte and Napoleon to their activities. He would also love seeing some of the historical exhibits, like the Titanic and Ancient Egypt ones in the Luxor hotel. He’s mainly just happy to have enough free time to write as much info in his book as he wants.

Ouija 2, Evil Since 1983, like Entenmann’s except Evil (2016):  I saw the Ouija board movie and only after having seen it am I now being informed by Wikipedia that it’s the Blumhouse sequel to an earlier Michael Bay movie.  Both of which are produced by Hasbro, presumably to sell more Ouija boards!!  Hasbro Executives were in a room with a giant line chart, and the chart represented the importance of cross-media licensing for the future of ouija board sales!
Ouija board sales are an interesting business.  Because as far as I can tell from this movie (a highly successful and critically acclaimed commercial for ouija boards), the best way to sell ouija boards is to promise that if you buy one, people are going to die, thanks to the spirit realm being real dicks...
The movie is fine-- it’s that Mike Flanagan guy and he seems like he’s fine even though i didn’t really like his movie The Shining 2 (which asked the question What if The Shining except with Traveling Wilburys groupies?).  People seem to like his work-- even if this isn’t as funny as a Hereditary, it like delivers basically what I signed up for when I said to myself “I need to see that ouija board movie” out loud, because that’s where I’m at, spiritually; that’s how things are going with me.  The characters have no real grief to them (likable actors though, especially the kid from ET), but harmless Hollywood rollercoaster horror and some of the spooks are a good time (and the little girl being a cockblock for her sister is a pretty good scene)... I think it succeeds at what it’s trying to be... I had fun.    
But it has within it has a two second moment that I have been ... I am besides myself with laughter and mirth and astonishment.  Like Criss Angel, that 2-second moment is magical, and I have been mindfreaked.  I don’t know how to describe what’s happening in the second image here but... I yelped a little yelp of delight at those two seconds.  i love that moment so, so much, especially because for the five minutes before it happened, I was making my own jokes to myself of wacky things that I’d like to see happen involving a certain corpse in the movie and I thought I was being a real clever jokester, a real class clown, and then the movie just topped all my little gags and laugh-em-ups, so... the egg on my face...
Really laughing and clapping my hands together at literally 2 seconds out of a 90-some minute movie, and only those two seconds.  Just so idiotically amused, like a dumbass.  When COVID ends, I’mma go to a circus and clap at the zebras and smelly animals because yaaaaaay i have the brain of a dumb child wheeee.....
Also: were the bad guys in this movie Holocaust survivors?  Did I hear that part correctly???  As in the historic Holocaust, from history books and such?  I might’ve misheard that part-- there were parts of the ouija board movie I struggled with.  
It’s a little weird that it’s not illegal to make little kids be actors and say gonzo “I love being a creepy boogens because I’m either a Nazi or a victim of Nazis, the audience wasn’t paying attention" screenwriter dialogue, for money.  It seems like that should be against rules.  But Joe Biden’s America.
Brought to you by Hasbro!

in the original brewster was obsessed and found out quick to the start all by himself and half the trouble was trying to convince everyone else too. now one of his friends is trying to convince him??

like he looked really unsure what to do with himself was that in character or?? he's looking around all paranoid he's perving on all the girls he's threatening him really obviously i can't tell if i like it more than the smooth suave chilling conversation that was driving charley mad at the start of the other one. jerry telling him to 'manage' the women in his life cause its his job to keep them safe. now they're doing the distracted disinterested in Amy play and she's the one coming onto him strong  and what are we gonna see this. this is literally worse acting than the screaming kid in the first one it's like halfhearted. now the movie's settling in for like a spookier, much darker version of the  nah nevermind its like a padded retelling. there's no billy in this one, just Jerry - who's gonna cover him during the day?

and now everyones free to die of their wounds aha jesus. his clothes would have seared into his skin, his goggles would have melted but no, completely unscathed. so lame. oh that was such a slow awkward dialogue. weird like one liner jokes throughout are we in vegas? oh nice they're fucking i really don't care i don't wanna see these 25 year olds why do we care what happens now Jerry's dead. jesus that was bad. please im so upset. oh well sometimes 1980s camp horror is better than cheap rushed or at least badly edited modern ones. disappointing man.

Vegas Trip #4 March 8th 2022-Present
Where do I begin wow, the past few months have been crazy let me tell ya.
So since January I've been donating plasma to get some extra cash, ofcourse snags along the way & chest issues from doing so. I've donated a ton of blood over the years to the Red Cross so I'm used to being stuck with a needle however theirs is a lot smaller lol, but donating plasma can be twice in 1 week compared to once a month red blood. Either are great causes because it goes around the world & to kids that really need it, it saves lives, highly recommend if you don't care about needles.
I combined that and my cash refund from work the prior yr, gathered what I could, booked everything from flight, hotel, and shows. I booked Planet Hollywood for 5 days, came out to around 1.5k, I should've done a small motel that doesn't charge fees & would've been cheaper in the long run but I acted on impulse, the flight was the cheapest one I could get & for March 8th for like $80, the shows were Criss Angel Mindfreak & his new anticipated show Amystika both of which were set for March 11th that Friday.
As some of you know I'm a loyal fan of Criss Angel, but you don't know is how far back, seems like since day 1 of Mindfreak the series, since I was a kid its been a really long time, time really does fly. He's come a long way & I've watched him grow as I have & still to this day he's my favorite person. Believe at the Luxor was the only live show I've seen so far, back in 2011 it was the best show I've seen. I made sure we sat front middle row up close & personal. I tested my gift then to see if i could communicate with him through our minds b4 the upsidedown straight jacket escape.. Something worked...b4 the switcharoo trick i looked behind me after they got my attention. I was still fresh with my schizophrenia without experience so I was hearing a lot of things at the time. Idk if my little test helped at all, but I thought I heard "@ me" & I didn't til yes later. But anyways he was upsidedown inches away from my face, I was chubby back then but I'm sure he never forgets a face. I couldn't see well I didn't have my glasses the whole show I was partially blind lol. My mom sitting right next to me was like "kiss him, he's right there nows your chance" I said " no, mom I can't..beside you'll ruin his concentration" mom"if u don't I will" he was hanging there for a while I totally could have lol. But in that moment I just stared peacefully & lovingly into his eyes..well it was dark so where his eyes would be lol. After that 1st trip to Vegas I got a CA logo inked on my left ankle to commemorate the occasion. I've been to Vegas 3 more times after that & all with their own experiences involving him without even seeing him or any shows. This recent trip is my 4th and longest trip to Vegas I've ever had, & so far I've been here longer than a month. There's a whole history regarding him maybe 1 day I'll get into it but not rn. Anyways...
I take 2 planes from Tucson & I arrive 2 hrs later to the beautiful city of Las Vegas. From the airport I take an uber to the hotel. I check in, the people at the front desk said they needed 500 up front but the receipt from the website I booked from said they only needed 262 & after checkout. I crued, tears down my face, I didn't know this like wtf. Managed to just pay that up front & away I was up to my room. Its my 1st time at this place, I see Criss's bikes on display all over the casino floor & lobby, the bikes on the top look really dope up on the 2nd floor where everyone can see. It seems like a perfect fit for him working here, the escalators to the 2nd floor go straight to his theatre like a staircase to heaven. I have to say I was drawn in immediately taking pics of all the bikes looking around, I truly felt at home & at peace, like this is so freaking awesome I love it here.
I go to the dispensary 1st thing i do after i got my room, to get a preroll but of course I lose half of it on the way back lol. Flashforward to Friday the night of the shows. I see Mindfreak for the 1st time, was pretty good. I sat in the front row again but this time off to the left side A7 for both shows. I got the package deal so u could see both sitting in the same place. Come to find out the day b4 I hear from the box office that the 2nd show Amystika was cancelled & was to be postponed at a later date. I'm like "well fuck now what do I do?" I checkout Sunday the 13th, the 5 days really flew by. I thought checkout was 4pm not 11am so I had to bounce quick. I left a dress I think in the closet at the hotel & lost my vape..losing things should've been my 1st clue that things would become tough later. I ordered a ride that never showed up so I waited outside forever. They held onto my bags for me for a while so I could go look around, go to the bar etc. I'm at the bar & this older gent hands me little figi water bottle, I'm an idiot OK I've never been roofied b4 so I thought he was being nice. I get woosy & light headed, the asshole spiked the water. Yea don't take candy from strangers. I felt drunk but all I had was water. I decided to go back to the lobby & pace myself, get my bearings. A white security guard in yellow comes up to me and orders me out, being very forceful & rude. Mind you I could barely walk much less talk, he said shit like was lying. Excuse me? Give me a break I was drugged. All of a sudden I have to get off property I'm not allowed to be here...well why I played good money to stay here & I'm on vacation. He kept shooing me out very angerly, the fuck is his problem? I have every right to be here im a tourist & I know my rights. I ended up wobbling away in a dress all fucked up on roofy & they're taking me off property. Idk what's happening or why its happening, I just did what they told me to do they wouldn't take no for a an answer, that prick security guard is now my worst enemy. Once i feel better I go back to get my bags being held & just go. Idk where I'm going, though I've been here a few times but never alone, im on the strip outside idk anything about surviving Vegas on my own but I learn as I go but not without making some mistakes & a bit of trail and error. All this happens within a week or so.
I walk to CVS fuck it. I go next door to a little shaded area under a tree rest my feet, some dude with a black & white puppy comes up & starts talking to me. OK.....I completely space it & walk away into the CVS to use the bathroom without my luggage, I come out & my bags plus the guy is gone, someone informed me he took off with it. FUCK! He was gone. Eventually I'm chilling over at Paris & I lose my phone too with all my cards ID everything. So I'm left with just the clothes on my back. What the actual shit is happening?
I'm at heart bar minding my own business having a drink & 3 yellow security guards come up to me, apprehended me, put the handcuffs on the wrong way so I was screaming in pain it hurt so bad, carried me away, slammed me I to the ground in front of the wheel of fortune game knocking the wind out of me, making a scene in the casino floor, I'm in awe...just why. I plead with them in the security office, they don't care about anything I have to say & don't take me seriously, nothing I say gets through to them they do what they want & assume what they want. I have done nothing wrong, what's the meaning of this. I'm trespassing excuse me I'm enjoying my vacation & am a paying customer. I don't get it, this calls for a lawsuit this isnt fair I dont understand what I did wrong. Don't they have anything better to do than to pick on & 3 men forcefully gang up on 1 girl that's a Loyal Fan of the guy that works there wtf? So they kick me off property again.
After a day I go back in sick of this, I have a right protest, the security aren't real cops either, I deserve to be here I payed to be here. So I go in, go up the escalators. I need info at the box office about Amystika. The security people follow me up almost knocking a woman & her baby off just to get to me, at the top I turn around & the knock my drink out of my hand take my arm & pin me to the ground very brutal like...right in front of Criss's theatre! Pretty much right in front of him, but he was doing a show that night. This was during the duration of Mindfreak & afterward. The sheer force of it the guy tore my cross & other pendants off my chest, they sat me next ti his motorcycle on the 2nd floor against the wall. I asked the security to please put my dainty necklace in my bag (new pink drawstring bag that was given to me) he says no, so I try doing monkey feet & put it in my bag myself to protect it. The security guard goes & kicks the bag away from me. You asshole! No matter what I said they didn't believe me and didn't give a damn. I refused to go without seeing criss bring him out here we'll straighten this mess up. They didn't get him he never came out b4 an officer lady came up to take me away to jail. I ended up in the back of her patrol car, she drove to a strip entrance near the balloon, transfered me & 2 gangstas into a van handcuffed. Whatever I had on me was given to the authorities. We were then driven to the county jail downtown. No leniency or anything yellow security are fucked up hardcore strict, they need to loosen up a bit & dislodge the sticks of they're asses. A lot of people that ive met are in a situation because of trespassing when they didn't even do anything.
So few hours in jail I am going through, I'm a walk through thank god so they didn't keep me, I have a mug shot somewhere now. Mind you I'm a very good girl I dont have a record at all, this was the 1st time I was arrested. I have court sometime in May, rn I have to call the courthouse somewhere to figure out when & where it is cuz I lost that paperwork too.
I'm released, its really cold outside like 3am, I see Golden Nugget nearby I walk over to it. I figure out eventually that the infamous Fremont St. is in the back yard so I happily walk around there, amazing place 1st time I'm seeing Fremont too & I love it. Yea as shit is going down I'm still trying to keep positive & seeing the sights while bad stuff happens to me lol. I absolutely love Vegas & everything there is to do & see there's still so much I haven't done yet, its the circumstances thieves & evil Security that ruin it for everyone.
So I swear criss new I was at Fremont because that morning right where he did human candle for ep.1 I was in the store on the corner & he walks right past the window right in front of me. This is like the 3rd time we crossed paths feet away from each other without a word spoken, we keep passing each other like ships in the night lol. It looked a lot like him wearing a big poofy jacket & the way he walks. Was he trying to look for me? He should've heard that I was arrested and sent down there. The voice in my head said to go to that area where he was on fire yes ago..so possibly? I missed him by a hair again. I ended up staying on Fremont for a few days, a homeless man said there was a place that gave away clothes (I was wearing the same dinged outfit for days, that was a god send.) He gave me a bag & a shirt, I went to go get clothes, long walk to & from Fremont, I come back to Fremont, fall asleep on the curb somewhere, wake up & my new back was gone & in it's place was a drink....someone took my shit again for the 2nd time!? Ugh..k so we are back where we started yay! Oh and I started my period & I was PISSED. I ended up walking down the strip going back to Planet Hollywood in the dead of night, much longer walk from downtown, being that I have no money for uber of bus.
I finally make it, I go to the 2nd floor, peace and quiet no security in sight, I can relax a little. Someone payed for my time at the computers in FedEx bless her heart. I hadn't had a phone for a couple weeks & relying on just my mind can get confusing cuz it can be vague & I'm no expert yet. I do know North South East & West which is important lol. So via my computer access I got into Facebook and relayed a message post to my friends on where I am that I'm OK and alive, etc. There I reached my fam so they know now phew. I go into I think is a restricted hallway? I call it the red room, its decorated in beautiful & elegant designs and lined with awesome chairs & pictures. This hall was made for royalty damn! I love the way they did it looks so awesome, my kinda place. The security finds me again & instead of being arrested they take it easy on me & offer medical because my body hurt from their bodies crushing me to the ground before :\ They just want me to leave still so they got an ambulance for me to get checked. I was transported to the lobby & into the ambulance & headed for Desert Springs Hospital. They did X rays & they were fine just body aching, I asked them to mend my feet cuz they were sore & full of blisters but they didn't. I needed sleep really bad but they didn't give me a bed for the night or feed me, just discharged me gave me a prescription that I can't even fill till I have Nevada medical, & sent me on my way. I then walked all the way to the strip yet again, now this is getting ridiculous.
I'm at Planet Hollywood batjrooms, security finds me again put me into handcuffs again and again to the security office, where I'm getting a 2nd court date oh goody, why am I not allowed in the hotel that I payed for? Im much more calm this time, I even read the mind of the 1 cool security guard twice in a row, pretty cool! And the take me off property back to the strip.
Throughout these weeks on end I'm doing everything I can to check lost and founds all over the strip for my phone and belongings without any luck. I'm working my butt off to solve this problem but everywhere I turn there road blocks. I check the go to hotel Paris but the security there is like "wait you're Briana Templin, you're not allowed here u need to leave!" Apparently he tells me that its not just Planet Hollywood its all Ceasars properties for 1 full year. What? Isn't that kinda harsh considering I haven't done anything & Im a paying customer where I stayed the hotel that exiled me anyway? Fuck why can't I see Amystika! Its like the universe doesn't want me to see his show let alone even meet him :'( why are these things happening! Ive had the worst luck since ive gotten here & criss could help me make it all go away. If it wasnt canceled I wouldn't be in this mess to begin with. What does it take what do I have to do to make something anything go right. I can't even contact him, he knows I'm in trouble, idk what to do I'm being screwed over & I need his help. Rn I'm staying at a homeless shelter trying to get ID & everything I need but its been weeks & idk how long I can handle it. Im not leaving til I do what I came here for. I have been going to church, Easter is coming up 1 of my favorite holidays. I made friends along the way that are now family. One of which is Robin she's a cancer survivor and the strongest woman ive ever met. Speaking of i need to get a brain scan done because I have a lump in the back of my head that could very well be a tumor. Idk how long I have left either & I'm terrified, I dont want this to be for nothing & I want to make my dreams a reality & live the life I want to before I dont have any time left. I'm scared, my life is totally different than it was in Tucson. Im a totally different person than I was 2 months ago...I dont recognize myself anymore. We stay outside so my skin is drier than usual and I have sunburn including on my head so I need to be careful. God what happened how did I get here how is this my life
Regardless I know God has me, I'm his faithful servant & desiple, he has my back and he saved me back in 2013/when I sought out a church, I loved him already but I accepted him into my heart then & he's been my guiding light since. He hears my heart & he has a plan & a future for me. Though I worry too much...I have faith it'll be ok. Ive been through this before with 3 nails going through my feet as a kid, ive experienced somewhat of the same thing he went through when he was nailed to the cross. I feel spiritually connected to him & I love him for all he's done for me. So if I'm going through hell in the days leading up to Easter then its alright, I'm walking with him as he went through hell in the days leading up to his resurrection. Its what he had to do through his sacrifice because of his undying love for us. He's the footprints in the sand & we're walking through this together, he knows. I just have to have faith, the pain is just temporary. He's one with me & he's my father...he's my true daddy forever. God is good.
Happy Easter. Oh btw I'm volunteering for the church's (Thr Mountain) Easter at the Park event this Saturday the day before Easter. So if any1 in Vegas would like to come visit and have some good fun come on by :) <3
