Well, it's time for my semi-annual journal update. Just kidding...but seriously it's been almost six months since my last update ( Read more... )

I had some spare time so I thought I would update. This summer seems to have passed more quickly than I would have expected. I have about a month until school starts back. It seems that no matter what season it is of the year, I can't wait for the next one. School is out and I can't wait for it to begin again so that I will be forced to be ( Read more... )

Hey folks ( Read more... )

As I mentioned before, I have opted to spend my spring break visiting the great state of Pennsylvania (so named for one William Penn) and though I expected little from the town of Indiana, PA, I have found that it is one of the most magical places I've visited hitherto in my span of years ( Read more... )

Now, I'm not saying that smoking a pipe is particularly pompous, but doing so in one of the most ( Read more... )

Well, the fates have conspired against me and is seems that I have tests in each of my six classes in the two weeks leading up to Spring Break(during which I will be heading to sunny PENN-SYL-VANIA to visit many of their excellent beaches, sample the fine cheeses and wines of the low country and check out the local Amish night club scenes). On top ( Read more... )

It's strange being in school again. I feel like a fish out of water, though it doesn't seem like I have any problems fitting in. Most of the kids here are, on average, six years younger than me! That may not seem like much but when I consider that when I was learning to drive, many of them were celebrating their tenth birthdays with Power Ranger ( Read more... )

I'm glad to be joining this little community of private citizens with public thoughts. I hope to gain greater insight to my thoughts by joining and reestablish contact with friends long missed but not forgotten. I'll add new info to my bio little by little and in the meantime would love to hear from anyone who comes across this and wants to say, "
