By birth, I'm Elizabeth. By the public, I'm Lizzy. By friends, I'm Becks. I'm a supporter of Cystic Fibrosis as well as the people who fight for everyday rather than giving up, If that's not obvious already. I'm attending the University of Pittsburgh, looking to earn my bachelors in English Literature with a minor in Creative Writing. I'm in a shit-dead little town called Johnstown from August to December and January to April, but Pittsburgh's my home. I'm up for good times and sweet people.

This is a blog of the things I find online, in my head, and in life.

It's time you opened your eyes and realized what's going on around you. There's more to life than sitting in ignorance. Every eight seconds someone within the planet takes their final breath as their life comes to an end. Compared to that, every three seconds someone is born, gasping, as they come into this world. Everyday, someone is born with Cystic Fibrosis and everyday, someone dies from it before his or her ultimate time. Now I may not have this disease, but it has shaped my life in ways I never thought would be possible. I'm no longer sitting on the side lines and you shouldn't be either. Now, people wear their own bracelets, like pink and yellow, around their wrists to show their support for cancers. A blue bracelet hangs from my now tattooed wrist everyday as I make the climb to spread awareness. I am proud to support both my brother and the search for a cure for Cystic Fibrosis as I hold onto both hope and strength for what is to come. Knowledge definitely is power, so enough of the ignorance. Get involved! Willing to show your support & would like a bracelet? Simply get at me.
