The #MonthlongCelerationofGolden starts
tomorrow (May 1st). It’s the most wonderful time of the year!
I could explain to you why we do this but
Golden did it perfectly when we first started this blog so why recreate the
wheel …. Read her post here …
What I will tell you is why I celebrate it. I celebrate it because Golden
deserves it. She’s a hard working, fun loving, amazing woman who has battled
more demons than even she would admit to and is still fighting. When they told
her you’ll have to retire by 30 she was like "nah … fuck that" and proved them
wrong. Her body has fought her every step of the way, yet Golden just powers
through it, with minimal complaining, but frankly for what she's going through the little bit of complaining is justified.
She’s literally the strongest person I know. I am proud to call her
my friend, I am proud to be in her corner and I’m proud to spend a month
celebrating all the awesome that is Golden. I've said it before and will say it again, I'm so happy that the AU Housing Board made us suitemates our Freshman year, many random things came together to make that happen and I'm forever grateful for those random situations.
My mother and her mother constantly tell me
not to encourage her in this insanity but it’s not insane. It speaks to her
personality and for once allows the spotlight to be on her, something she
typically shy’s away from. I am making it my mission that this be the best
month long celebration yet, cause let’s face it each one has to be better than
the last right. Some of my friend’s get week long celebrations but Golden gets
an entire month. From May 1st through the 31st (her
actual B’day) it’s all about Golden !
Throughout the month I’m going to post some of
Golden’s “best” blog posts as well as a few new ones of my own as part of this
month long celebration cause if we aren’t going to use this blog to build one
another up then what we are using it for?! Who knows maybe I’ll get her to come
back to the keyboard for a post this month.
So join me won’t you as we celebrate this
month by sending her tweets of love and encouragement. It doesn’t take much, a
goofy picture that made you smile, which might make her smile; a note to just
say hi; any acknowledgement really is what we are looking for so let’s get it
going … and kick off Monday May 1st the right way as we start the #MonthlongcelebrationofGolden
(could we have used a longer hashtag?!)
Thanks,
Marcy @beaslmaGolden @theonlygolden
