I want to say something sappy, and meaningful but I know you would probably make me laugh as I was trying to do it.

I will not flake on friends who have been nothing but good to me. I will make better grades, and be willing to work hard even when faced with the seemingly insurmountable. I will show kindness because it ( Read more... )

I awake to find sun flowing silently through my window and excitement bursts into my sleeping form at my first conscious  thought: Christmas. I bounce out of bed, toes barely skimming the carpet down the hall, my body flung down the stairs in one effortless motion. I enter the living room to find a family laughing happily at some perfectly given ( Read more... )
