When I first woke up this morning, I heard a musical tune in my head saying, "Good morning! Good morning! It's bingo time!" While many of you would wonder why I would think of this, I don't wonder. This was said (or sang) every morning at 7 on the cruise I went on the summer before 10th grade. My cousins and I hated this because we would go to bed at 1 or 2 in the morning.

Thinking about the cruise brings back many memories, but reminds me of a pivotal moment in my life. This was the time period where I realized how many horrible things were happening in the world. This was the first time I was scared for my life. Yeah. I know. Seriously Kemsley? You were just figuring it out? But I was a different person back then. I was protected far too much.....
