[blue-eyed struck]

YEY!!!!! ;D can't wait!

[§hannon]

I'm sitting here singing 'Let Go' from the Red Eye music video.
I'm getting in Red Eye mood to write.

I start singing a lot. lol. I'm one of those people that... I hate singing in front of people. But, people that have heard me sing are like, "YOU'RE SO GOOD! WHY DON'T YOU SING IN FRONT OF PEOPLE?!". Self-concious thing. lol

[blue-eyed struck]

writing fiction, singing, says she looks like Cillian. You could've been rich and famous! GET ON IT GIRL! stop wasting your time!!

[§hannon]

I'm taking everything back that I've said about Cillian and I.
Basically, I was just restating everybody elses opinions of how we have similarities.
And, I dunno. It got out of hand.

[blue-eyed struck]

Well all Murphys have something alike, right!? I definitely agree on your eyes. They look just like his!

[§hannon]

But, that came afterwards... haha.
Everybody says we have the same nose, lips, and cheeks. Not cheekbones. But, cheeks.
Hair colour.. that's obvious. Blegh. I don't know.

[blue-eyed struck]

heehee! your the girl version of Cillian!! That's cool!

[§hannon]

Hahah... that's a little scary.
And one hell of a reputation to live up to. lmao.

Oh yeah. And that Cork accent? I have that too. And it comes and goes when it pleases.
THAT'S annoying... lmao.

A couple days ago, my mom (Murphy side) and I were going through the drive-thru and she said 'Tank you'. And, that's an Irish/Cork thing. To take the 'H' out of words like that. So, she starts laughing and she's like, "Did you hear me? I just said tank." and starts laughing. So, I told her, "That's an irish thing, ya know?" and she goes, "Tank?" and I said, "Yeah, like tink instead of think." and I said tink with this REALLY strong Irish accent. She just looked at me like I was crazy and started talking randomly in an Irish accent. God, it was funny.

[blue-eyed struck]

hahaha! Especially when you're speaking with family, the accents start to come out! I know with me, everytime I talk to my grandmother, my persian accent just automatically comes out, and it's not the most attractive accent, but I can't help it!

Did you grow up in Ireland, or were you born in the states?

[§hannon]

I was born in the states. But, I have a lot of Irish influence in my family.

I was going to do a family tree because I know Murphy goes back further than my great great grandfather. And I was interested in figuring things out.

[blue-eyed struck]

That's cool! Try this website for your family tree. They give a 2-week free trial. I'm sure you'll need all the help you can get. There's alllooottt of Murphys out there!

[§hannon]

Hahah. There's a lot of Murphy's, period. lol

[blue-eyed struck]
