apart from the ridiculously rainy weather life in Oxford is great. I've been really busy which is what I thrive on. I become a much more productive person when i have very limited amounts of free time. A sleepy person, but that's a sacrifice i'm willing to make. I have 2 little jobs and their great. I kind of wish I had time to keep tutoring at the ( Read more... )

Today I got practice setting up climbing routes. I also discussed buying a bike along with my friend Zach. Both of these conversations got me really pumped up about camp. I miss it so much, and i'm so excited for the coming summer. It really is home to me ( Read more... )

I really am afraid that my mother and I have a irreparable relationship. It scares me sometimes. I'm afraid that my children will grow up to resent me, or be distant and not talk to me the way I am with my mom. And I blame her. How crappy is that. It's my fault. I know better and I could do something about this pitiful mother daughter relationship ( Read more... )

I have felt somewhat dead lately. Is not that I'm sad or anything its just that I cant seem to stay happy. It's a kind of apathy, or an array of emotions that you would expect to come from apathy.

A relationship can change one of the people’s lives completely and have little to no effect on the other half. An experience; a conference, movie, song, visit, anything can rock someone's world and totally change their outlook ( Read more... )

I think I often experience God the same way I experience Stars. I didn't come to this conclusion on my own but I've thought about it a lot lately. It seems like the stars are much clearer on top of mountains. Surrounded my others who also notice that they appear brighter, appear to have a unique twinkle that's lost in the city lights, that's ( Read more... )

Some days I want to leave, just walk away and never come back. Walk away from this home, my family, my highschool friends. This routine is warn out ( Read more... )

My escape to Black Mountain has been amazing. Robin and I have spent a lot of time in the car but even that has been fun because it's just singing along to music karaoke style and laughing, a lot of laughing. I've had a chance to see many friends and get addicted to Alias. Greenville is an amazing town, who'd have thunk. It was great to see Katie, ( Read more... )

I talked to my mom for a minute about her moving around stuff in my room without asking which is probably my biggest pet peeve, has ( Read more... )
