THE ENTRIES
So like it's weirdly formatted like this to fit within the quotes. Just an FYI if you send it to the other judges.     As a child, I spent considerable time alone. My parents worked multiple jobs just to give us the bare minimum. And my brothers also worked and participated in their school’s soccer team, so their time at home was scarce. Above all this, I never felt any feelings of loneliness or sadness. The fantasy worlds, Disney films let me experience, were enough to keep my spirits high. I immersed myself within the magical realm of Disney, by watching the films over and over again. My dad never missed a release date. Every time a new one would come out he would snatch up a copy and rush home; I would just sit in my parent’s room just mesmerized by the stories, characters and amazing songs. My avatar represents the joy those tapes brought me. It’s an ode to my childhood. The avi itself is not sentimental, but rather what it represents is important to me. Those moments I cherished as a kid. Those moments of true joy, that people search their entire lives to feel again. Every time I see that adorable mouse I am reminded of that feeling. Happiness might be fleeting, but its memory is cemented within me.

Honestly, the origin of A Bomb is kinda lame. So, junior year of high school, I had a friend named Karen. She had this FINE ass off-and-on again boyfriend… wooooo but let stop, before this starts sounding like something off of BET Videos After Dark. Anyway, she had a group of female friends and they called themselves The Bomb Squad. I never asked where the name originated from, but basically they would take the first letter of their names and add “bomb” to it. For most of the year, we hung out regularly. We would take the bus together, ditch class to go to both lunches and just talk ****. The point of this being, because we spent so much time together, I just inserted myself into the Bomb Squad. And A Bomb was conceived through immaculate conception. I'm very intense when I speak about things I'm passionate about. I guess that intensity, is what makes me explosive. :] The connection both my username and my avi have is that they both represent the two sides of the same coin. My username represents the hard outer shell. While the username symbolizes the explosive and sometimes careless nature that I have. It’s the tough and sharp shell that surrounds, the kindness and virtues I possess. They are the two extremes temperaments I have. *insert cliché yin yang closing statement here*
