    Title: Inspired by…..

    By: Cece Hymes

    I like to talk about my grandmother
    And how she inspired me
    She loved to read books
    And was as sweet as can be

    I learned to stay positive
    And not let much get to me
    Because I was inspired by my grandmother
    I learned to always be me

    I don’t need extra to enjoy the time
    Smoking,  drinking, and cursing was unlady like in her mind

    Oh how I miss my grandmother today
    But I know she inspired me
    In each and every way

    She’s here in my heart
    And in my mind
    She inspired me to know
    No matter what
    I will be just fine

  • Starlight Drive-In Theater

    Starlight Drive-In Theatre

    Atlanta GA

    By: Cece Hymes

    Got a chance to do another thing off my bucket list in the Atlanta area. This was great. It shows multiple screen drive-ins located in Atlanta GA. You can see current and upcoming movies. I went to see John Wick, it was a little dark, but you can see everything that’s going on. The movie was great.

    One thing I like about this place is that it’s not expensive, you can watch 2 movies for the price of one. Another thing I like is that you can hear it well in your car and bring your own snacks and can talk with other people in the car. The down part is that you have to keep your car running, you don’t want to run your battery dead.  They do sell popcorn and things.

    It is definitely something to try out and different. I am glad I was able to try it out and knock something else off my bucket list. Make sure to check it out and let me know what you think. Also, follow me @Cece.atlbucketlist and @Cece.Atl.

     

  • Kennesaw Mountain

    Kennesaw Mountain

    Atlanta GA

    By: Cece Hymes

    I got a chance to go to Kennesaw Mountain which is beautiful. Kennesaw Mountain is a mountain between Marietta and Kennesaw, Georgia with a summit elevation of 1808 feet.  It is the highest point in the core metro Atlanta area.  It has great trails all over the mountain. Its view is nice, and a lot of beautiful birds were out on this nice day.

    This was on my bucket list, and I was glad that I was able to go and see the scenery. I want to try different nature walks and mountains. I didn’t go to the top, but the view is great.

    Make sure to check it out and let me know what you love about Kennesaw Mountain. Also, follow me @Cece.atlbucketlist and Cece.Atl 

  • First (Poetry)

    Title: First

    By: Cece Hymes

    First things first
    We put ourselves first
    Once you learn this step
    We get what we deserve
    And nothing less

    Happiness and joy
    Love and peace
    Thats what we need
    And what to believe

    I want you first
    To open your eyes
    Tell me what you see
    And whats your dream

    This is your year
    I want you to see
    You can do anything that you want
    If you just believe

    But first thing first
    You got to start
    Remember everything
    Starts with you
    So just pursue

    This is my first poem
    For the year and this is
    Just for you

  • About Me (Poetry)

    Title: About Me

    By: Cece Hymes

    What about me
    That you see
    That makes me special
    And unique

    Is it my mind
    Is it my body
    Is it my soul
    Or is it just all 3

    I look in the mirror
    And ask what it is about me
    I look back and tell myself
    It’s everything

    Your mind is creative
    Your body is an art
    Your soul is deep
    And you ask
    What about me

    So what about me
    I am amazing
    I am beautiful
    And I am unique

    So what about me
    If you want to know more
    Come and see
    It’s worth knowing
    What it is about me

  • A Night out in Atlanta GA

    A Night Out

    Atlanta, Ga

    By: Cece Hymes

    Went out and hung out with some friends for a birthday gathering in Atlanta. First time going on a party bus. We went on the Go Go Party bus. It was nice. The driver was really nice and on time. The Party bus had lights in it, music, and a pole if you want to dance. It holds about 25 people. I really enjoyed this.

    The first step was to The Clutch Restaurant. It was a really nice restaurant in Atlanta Ga. The food was Great I ended up having the Shrimp and Grits which was good. We tried the wings which were good and the brussels sprouts. They have Live music playing after a certain time. It is classy and nice. The customer service was good.

    The last place we ended up going was the Parlor Lounge which was cool. They played House music. The people were cool and it’s a nice laid-back place. It’s like a chill spot to go to and dance. The smell when you came in wasn’t too good but once in the back and down to the dance floor you couldn’t smell it.

    It was a nice day to get out and enjoy the Atlanta area and to try and do some new things and try new places. If you tried these places let me know what you liked about them. Make sure to follow me at @Cece.atl and @Cece.atlbucketlist

    “Nothing is going to be handed to you-you have to make things happen”

    She was great. She inspired other athletes into fashion. Why not look good and run. What are some of your great memories you want to share of Flo Jo? Also make sure to follow me @Cece.Atl
