Come Lets Sit Around the Fire and Tell Those Stories that Made Us Feel Good Inside

For the past two weeks, I’ve been so busy that I haven’t been able to just sit around and let everything absorb. Instead, I’ve been moving with that current, running along, making sure that everything is in, everything is studied for, and everything is generally good. Regretablly, I haven’t been able to write as much as I’ve been wanting to. What I really want is one those notebooks filled with thick writing paper and a cute front. A good writing pen is also essential. I think I would be more motivated to write. Nowadays, what I do end up writing is bland and emotionless.

My plans for the winter break are still wide open. I would like to find another job, and soon leave the Marriott, which coincidentally I am working at right now. I’m hoping to take a skiing trip with Derek and my other friends this winter; I would really enjoy that. Originally, my plan was to become an EMT over winter break, but silly me forgot that it takes a longer amount of time to become one. A part from school work and work, what I really want to do is spend time with everyone. It’s amazing how a few people in your life can make such a difference in how you feel, how you see things, and how you wake and sleep each day.

School is either my worst enemy or my best friend. It either leaves me on the ground begging for help or up in the air on a pedestal waving my hand around. OK- maybe I’m exaggerating a bit, but school determines my emotions sometimes. If school were an object, I might be arrested for physical abuse because I would hit and throw that thing around like I don’t know what.

This past weekend was an adventure to say the least. Friday, the day that I “physically abused” something (which made me dead tired), suddenly became a shopping day, which is sometimes really, really boring. And guess what, it was. hehe. There’s a select few people I LOVE to go shopping with, and there’s some days that I just love going. I just wasn’t feeling this shopping trip. My sister came over later that night, which was pretty fun, it’s too bad that we couldn’t go see a sneak preview to a movie, but we found ways to have fun anyways. Saturday was interesting. I went out ice skating with one my friends to Cabin John, which was a fun yet a bit boring. I love ice skating, but it would have been better if more of my friends wanted to come with. It’s all good though ice skating is kind of a stress-reliever for me. Later on, I went to the frisbee formal, which was lots of fun. It was a night filled with pong, shot-ski’s, funyuns, meeting people, and pictures. By the end of the night, all I could think about was how I really really wanted to dance with Derek. My phone call to him that night was probably a character less than me, where I was a little bit off in my own world, sleepy, worn-out, and …to be honest wanting to be right next to him. I know…me and my thing and missing people, missing him.

Christmas. The time of giving and recieving. I love giving gifts to people. New years…the beginning of the new year. This new years I want to set out a list of goals. The main reason for this is that I want to make the most of my year, become as productive as possible, and be proud of everything that I’ve done by the end of the year.
