You're probably thinking: Why in the world does Hannah recognize the font from Twilight? The real loser in this situation must be me. Yes, it's true. But to be fair I only read the first two books, then realized how ridiculous they are.
Also, two people stood around for at least an hour and chatted. They did not touch a single piece of exercise equipment. I'm betting they left after awhile and felt like they had put in a good day's work at the gym, too.
Enough gym bashing.
Day #7: A picture of your most prized possession.
This one is easy.
This is one of my high school senior pictures. My mom bought this violin shortly after I began lessons at the age of 4, in hopes that she would someday give it to me. I worked my way up from a shoe box dressed up as a violin, to this beautiful instrument. The truth is that it isn't worth all that much. I've been told that I should really buy a new one. I'm so attached to this one, though. Plus I can't afford a new one... but that's not the point. I remember when I finally graduated into the full size.
I named my violin Zeke, after my mom's nickname for her back brace in high school. My mom had scoliosis; can you imagine having to wear a back brace in one of the most vulnerable times in your life? But my mom was/is a rock star: she won the title of Homecoming Queen! That's the history behind the name.
I also love my violin because its deep red hue matches my hair color.
My other most prized possession:
My wedding ring. When Jake proposed, he didn't have a ring. He decided he wanted me to pick one out. I've never regretted this. I've often wondered what he would have picked out, but going shopping together was so amazing. I picked this one because it looks so much like my mom's ring. When I was young I used to take my mom's ring off her finger and play with it. This one is just different enough to make it my own.
What's your most prized possession?
huzzah!
