Fun, Witty and Pretty


Funny, Witty and Pretty

 



   
Howdy!  I’m Christina Marie DeLong.  I am from the “bipolar weather state of Texas”!  Where Mother Nature cannot help but, bless you with winter for breakfast and summer for lunch, you learn to adapt.  I was naturally born in a hospital, in Bryan, Texas. As if my life could not be any greater, my not so smart parents decide to multiply at an alarming rate.  Not only one, but even more hard head tiny little mouths to feed. You guessed it! I am far from being soiled, and I hate sharing! Being the youngest girl out of eight children did come with definite perks. Like learning from my sisters and brothers mistakes, having a gang of personal Uber drivers at your doorstep, figuring out tricks to doing your chores the fastest, and bodyguards for when little boys like Tommy break your heart.


    I am interested in a lot of things. First one is serving the Lord on Sunday’s, bible study and church revivals. I simply love me some baby Jesus!  I enjoy spending quality time with my dad which includes hunting trips where I get to “shoot them bang bang” and take home part of Bambi's family. I also enjoy four wheeling, horseback riding, football, basketball, super bowl weekend, and SHOPPING!  I love to cook anything from smothered pork chops to your grandmother’s smack your lips tatters. You know! The ones that leave you drooling while sitting fat and full. Yeppers those tatters!

   With my passion for helping others and determination for success, my future will shine brightly. To achieve my love, I choose to go back to school to further my education in Medical Trauma Services. Which includes abstracting medical data to strength Trauma Patient Safety, Injury Prevention, and Community Outreach Programs. After graduation, I’ve already considered an infinitude of ways in which I will accomplish my doctorate in Physical Therapy. Ultimately, by volunteering in Physical Therapy clinics, exploring Residency and Fellowship, building a brand name, and signing up for no life at all for the next seven years.  I hope this is just the beginning of many new adventures I will face.

   I hope all my past doubters, underachievers, and nonbelievers are present during my skip across the stage on graduation day. In the audience, I hope to look out and see work mentors, college professors, trusted friends, best friends, supporters, and a sign from my mother in heaven cheering in the stands.

I would not be who I am today without the support of my family, friends, coworkers, and God.

    I love the weather and taters bits. That's good southern-voiced writing right there. You should read Larry McMurtry. He's one of our Texas writers that has a "regional" voice that shines bright on the page.

Figurative Language, Hank Williams Jr., Garth Brooks, and Chris Stapleton

Image
Hank Williams Jr., from Shreveport, Louisiana, is one of my idol songwriters in country music. He created his own musical existence, through connecting country with Southern rock and blues. Originally, Hank Williams Sr. wrote and recorded, “There’s A Tear in My Beer”, in 1951, but later rerecorded by his son Hank Williams Jr. in 1988, after the unexpected passing of Hank Williams Sr. in 1953. His music style creates imagined stories that sprout life on stage, leaving his audience emotionally connected with each lyric he sings.   One of my favorite songs,   "Tear in My Beer" on the album Pink Cadillac , The Williams sing,   “ There’s a tear in my beer / ‘cause I’m cryin’ for you, dear / you are on my lonely mind.”   The classic song is an example of an idiom, because “There’s a tear in my Beer”, gives you a glimpse into Hank Williams Sr. loneliness and emotions as his fallen tears drip-drop into his ...

Response to article "Hurricane Maria and relief efforts in Puerto Rico"

  In the  Los Angeles Times article,  "Trump praises hurricane relief efforts in Puerto Rico amid criticism of a slow response,"  by Molly Hennessy-Fiske and Laura King.  Trump visits Puerto Rico on a reassurance mission in an attempt to bring comfort to all Puerto Rico residents that he is dedicated to their recovery process after hurricane Irma devastates the island.  Trumps attempt to show his concern for Puerto Rico fall short. Instead, Trump “so graciously” complains and states “I hate to tell you, Puerto Rico, but you through our budget a little out of whack!,” and even tosses around jokes when others are struggling to survive and cope.  Then Trump’s displays an attempt to show his concern for the Island residence as he propels rolls of paper towels into the crowd while voicing “The job that’s been done here is nothing short of a miracle, he said.  Now mind you, millions in Puerto Rico are still without power, food, and water.  How...
