If I had to describe myself, it would be in a word that has many meanings with a complexity which falls off the tongue.
A word made up of many elements, is deceptive in appearance, and creates an illusion from the imagination.
My word would be Phantasmagoric. ~Summer Ross

First loves blogfest entry

Alex is hosting the First Loves Blogfest today. 

The rules: Four loves one blogfest 

Entry:

First movie: Nightmare on Elm Street.
I can't explain why, but Freddy Crugar has always been great to me.

First song: Total Eclipse of the Heart by Bonnie Tyler.
My Mother had me listen to this song when I was young, and it's been in my heart ever since.

First Book: "Little Women"
I remember reading this book beside a campfire during the summer out with my family. Though I don't actually remember how old I was.

First Person: Ryan Norris
We dated for one year in 6th grade. He broke it off with me in a grueling scene. He died a few years ago in a motor cycle accident.

Thanks for participating in my blogfest.

ugh--I never saw Nightmare, but Little Women was it for me, too! I even wrote like a 16-page "book report" on it when I was very little. I loved it that much-LOL! :D

Ryan Norris. That's too bad. :o| <3

I was terrified of Freddie Kreuger! My neightbour made me watch it when we were little, and I was so traumatized lol. I did love Little Women though, I've actually been wanting to reread it.

So sad about your first love. One of my first boyfriends died (years afterwards) when scuba diving in the Caribbean.

That's awesome about Nightmare on Elm Street.

I'm sorry to hear about your first love (person), though.

I try so hard to sing Total Eclipse of the Heart for Karaoke but I always mess up the middle part.

Unknown said...

Excellent choice with Bonnie Tyler. Have you seen the literal video for Total Eclipse of the Heart? It's hilarious!

Unknown said...

Hell yes on the Freddy K!

We all love something...right!
