As I leave school each day, I think to myself, "aww man, I forgot to tell them..." So I thought I'd compile a list and see if it comes out as good as it sounds in my head ( Read more... )

I LOVE visiting the area where I grew up because there are STORMS there! I've never really been able to put my finger on what it is I like about them, but then I found this little excerpt from The Shack, by William Young ( Read more... )

For those of you who read this that I don't talk to regularly, I thought I would let you know that I broke up with Aaron a few weeks ago. I don't really feel like writing about why, but if you care to know, I'll talk about it if you email/IM me.

(The video isn't me, but it's what I learned to do!)

I finally learned to do something other than plowing! It only cost two BADLY bruised, swollen knees, a swollen butt, and some whiplash...

Too bad it took me til the last run of the season!

 I've been tossing this idea around in my head for a while, and thought I'd get the rough draft on paper. I live and work in a not-so-nice area, and it's interesting to compare how these areas are perceived by media and entertainment versus how I view them in my daily life. The idea kind of came from someone saying something about "the deepest ( Read more... )

Get it out of my head. The more I try not to think about it, the more I do. I feel guilty doing it too, but it comes up in my dreams...can I control what I dream about? *sigh* Is there a reason why it won't go away? I wish I knew... I wish somehow the decision could be made for me...

So, I'm back again. Back in the midwest, that is. I come here about twice a year to visit extended family and high school/church friends. Every time I come back, I think about what life would be like if I moved back. I think about what it would TAKE to move back - or rather, what I would have to give up.

I'm all moved into a new house!!!! I moved to Long Beach, but I should be making a few trips back to SD before August 15th, so if I haven't seen you yet, I'd love to! Also, I'm hoping to do a house warming party eventually ( Read more... )

(UPDATED)

I now get on the airplane in about 40 hours, so it's time to update the to do list:

I want this week to go quickly, but I'm scared because I have SO much to do and I don't know how I'll fit it all in...

In the next five days I need to:

Do two art projects (one down)
Mark multiple exams
Finish Internal Reports
Tear down my rooms
Take all of my ( Read more... )

Today I rode a camel!

Not as glamorous as it sounds, but it was still exciting. In the evening, these people who own horses, ponies, donkeys and a camel hang out beside a park and sell rides to kids on each of the aforementioned animals. The animals look very sad and poorly cared for, so I felt kinda guilty paying to ride on one of them, and thus ( Read more... )
