Do any of y'all know if lots of people buy senior class rings, or if most people don't? I don't know if I should buy one or not. (I would probably not wear it very often.)

I am so excited to go home! I missed Thanksgiving with my family last year, so I can't wait for it this year! Turkey and ham and green beans and mashed potatoes and yams and stuffing and corn and PIES! Oh my! I am in charge of making the pumpkin pie this year. It's a big responsibilty, but somebody's got to do it ( Read more... )

Wednesday, Oct. 26. Game #4 of the World Series. I will be there!!!! My dad agreed to let me come home for a game! Going home Wednesday afternoon, pretty much straight to the game, home to sleep, then 7am flight back here. I won't even miss Spanish class ( Read more... )

Oh HELL YEAH! Astros in the WORLD SERIES!

Oh happy days.

I have been trying to keep my mind off of the loss, mostly because when I think about it I feel empty inside. Plus Erica is annoyed and says I am taking it too seriously.

I had to be up at a decent hour this morning, so I was tired today. And now I want to read, and I don't have to wake up early tomorrow, but I have nothing to ( Read more... )

WTF?!??!? They are CLOSING ASTROWORLD. I have been going there since I was little! It's Houston's biggest amusement park! How can they do that? What will happen to all the rides? Where will we go for roller coasters? How can a city as big as Houston not have a SixFlags amusement park? It's always so crowded ( Read more... )

My grandfather died one month ago today.

Alright well it's off to school in a few hours, my bags are *mostly* packed, just gotta load up the ipod and get some sleep!

( And I just heard this song on the radio - I can't help but like it, though it's ridiculously cheesy! )
