Hiatus

Well, again, It's been awhile since i last blogged, but thats okay . Wow, it almost August, where does time go?. Anyways, these past couple of weeks have been very...erratic, I guess. Yeesh, lets see. I went to the movies with Chris on Sunday, or should i say Monsoonday. Okay, So maybe it might not be the best joke, but oh my gosh we got SOAKED. Racing through the parking lots of not one, not two, but three theaters was an adventure in itself to say the least. Never wear flipflops on a possibly rainy day, because they only get in the way when your trying to race through feet deep floods. And the thunder, and the lightning too.What a stormy day that was. I've never been more glad that I brought a sweatjacket with a hood.

That was sunday, which, the day itself was good, things got crappy as the night went on. That night, I wast then made aware that Creamsicle, my goldfish of over 13, years, has a bloat condition and is swimming upside down. Based on experiences with other goldfish, which have had the same condition, its NOT good diagnosis. Not good at all. We got some of those little brine shrimp and put them in the tank to try to help him. Hopefully he pulls through....

I guess I could blog about my allergies,lol, but I dont want to give them any more satisfaction or power over me. I'll keep it short and just say that Cold Compresses and myself are becoming very close. But hey, that comes with the territory of summer I guess.

Right now one of those Court Shows is on t.v, this lady is sueing another because she hit her parked car. The defendants defense is " it was illegaly parked". What the defendant dosent mention though, which is exposed 2 minutes later, is that she Doesn't have a license! Is that crazy?. She goes onto say that she's been driving for three years and that she knows the rules and regulations regardless. Apprently, the judge remarks that she obvisously didn't know to turn around before she puts the car in reverse to check for cars behind her. Ahh, society today.....

Oh well. I guess I'm going to keep it light this entry, much like the lunch I'm eating right now. Until Next Time.

The following is an entry from March 8th 08 from my livejournal site, I didn't to get lost among old blog sites, So i figured I'd transfer it here:

Sometimes in life I guess, you just have to put yourself in action. Be spontaneous. Take a chance.Do something. So many people can just wait and wait and wait for life to happen. And then you know what? Newsflash: Poof!. Its already happened. Realize that life doesn't start after you get a big promotion, or once you confess your love to your childhood crush.It starts now. Live while your alive, and make the best of your life while your doing it. Don't let life pass you by as you wait for something better. Sure, It may be written in the stars, but WE hold the telescope. We choose how we react to a situation, or let it get the best of us.So take a deep breath,and relax. Looking back, It will be worth it.

Only Time Will Tell

Well, Its been a tiny bit over a month since I last posted. I had a few things to blog about, but this time I just think I'm going to play it by ear. Whatever I get to so be it. Or maybe I'll just ramble and see where this entry takes me. Who knows. Anyway, since my last entry.....
School Is officially over , which marks the end of a few things. The end of a really great year. The end of all regent's exams-forever. The end of 11th grade. The end of being a junior. We all know what comes after that folks. This past year, I kind of feel that I've learned a lot about friendship, strength within, as well as confidence. At times I don't think we realize how much we have actually grown until we look back. It's fascinating how some things have such a nice way of working themselves out. Sometimes its hard to comprehend or absorb the fact that I'll be GRADUATING in a year from now. Although junior year is over, I'm pretty sure (and hope!) that senior year will also contribute to bigger and better things.

Summer. Now, thats something that I think I can talk about. Its early July and you would never know it unless your calendar hit you in the face, because it is so overcast and cloudy right now. As little kids summer meant freedom. Summer-where the possibilities seem endless. Where anything can happen. The sparkle of the crystal blue water ripples in the swimming pool,the faint aroma of a barbecue meal in the distance, or maybe the sound of the ice cream man around the block. Its amazing how all of these little elements intricately weave themselves into our lives. As much as I want to relax(and will), I know that this is the summer where I start looking at colleges, and life after high school. These months can maybe be a time for adventure or new experiences . Even now, who knows what summer will hold for each of us. I guess we'll wait and see.
