i feel the need to update this blogspot... lets see... what has been happening lately? my new motto in life is "just do it" courtesy of shannon harris. its so true you know? sometimes, especially when you are in college and homework is boring and you dont always feel like you have a direction you are headed in, sometimes you just need to do what you need to do. not even what you need to do, but what you want to do. i really want to have a clean bedroom everyday. so i need to just do it! its quite a freeing realization for me.
what else... i think there are 30 days or something like that until onething. (www.ihop.org/onething) i am definately excited about that but i am also excited about the rest of the trip... and getting a break from ordinary life. plus i love going halfway across the country in an airplane. i love the moving sidewalks in the airport. and i love take off. so it shall all be very exciting...
i have been thinking a lot lately about people from high school, and a friend of mine just recently posted about missing old friends... it is kind of sad. in this life... we transistion so much. sometimes i think we would all be happier if we would all just stick together. but i guess that is what college is like... you leave your friends to make new friends that you will leave when you graduate college. in the end... i think i am glad i stayed in town. i have friends here, ones i love and care about and ones that love and care about me. not those here today gone tomorrow kind of friends.
one thing i wish i could do better is reach out to people. i think a lot of people are lonely and maybe they dont always say it. i know i have had times in the past two years of extreme loneliness... and there were a couple of people who reached out to me. ohps... got to go back to work!

Hmm. Back when you didn't hate yourself? Perhaps you should stop the madness of hating yourself.
What is it that you hate, I wonder?
It's nice to read your words. I too hope Taylor has a party party. *chuckles* I can't much imagine him not having one really. As I don't recall, over Thanksgiving he invited a few people over, which turned into somewhat of a gathering. Alas, I was in Cambridge annoying Aruna.
I'd like to hear about the way things are... in specifics... sometime perhaps - that is, if you don't mind.
