In my room there is a knitting of Mary. It lays against the wall taped to a cardboard box the exact way my grandma made it. My grandma loved knitting so much she would spend all day and night doing it. I remember watching her precisely craft that amazing artwork. Even though she passed away whenever I look at that Mary knitting I still feel she is with me. She spent so long on it and worked very hard to make it as perfect as possible. It always reminds me of how artistic my grandma was. I will keep that Mary knitting with me forever.
I remember back in 2001 when the first Fast and Furious movie came out, my dad, who really loves cars took me as well as my brother and my mom to see the movie. I was six years old when I saw Paul Walker on the big screen and I just fell in love at first sight. When he passed away it just took me back to that memory of me being so infatuated with him on the big screen. I remember the whole time my dad was telling me to look at how cool the cars are in the movie but, I had my eyes on Paul Walker the whole time.
