Poof

January is gone. That was fast.

We're half way through February already.

It's truly amazing how time flies.

To sum up January - it was good. I honestly don't remember a lot that happened. Is that bad? It's probably bad. Oh well.

I did go to a rabbit show. All the champions from all the counties came to Lansing to compete. There were about 12 of us. And I won. No big deal. Just the best rabbit showman in the state of Michigan.

I got all my prom stuff. Dress. Shoes. Jewelry. Now all I need is a date.

I hate Economics. I swear it's out to get me. "There's a test Wednesday." "Awesome, I got this in the bag. I've studied and I understand everything." Wednesday - "I don't know this ... crap." C+ "Well, at least I passed." This happens about once every week or so. I'm surprised I'm still getting above at 80% in there.

Anyway, on to February. I entered a poetry contest. I submitted two poems: The Floor and They Call it Love (I changed the title on the last one). (Click the titles to read them.) I mailed those in yesterday, and March 2nd, I have to perform them, so that will be something new. I'm not exactly the one to go up and talk in front of a bunch of people, let alone memorize two whole poems and recite them. So we'll see how it goes. Worst comes to worst, I suck and I never do it again. No big deal.

Next weekend is the annual Chicago trip with the dance company, and I am very pumped. I have one goal - to buy a travel mug with the Chicago skyline on it. I saw one last year and didn't get it. I regret that. I'm buying one even if it's $35. (Ok, probably not that much. $20 is my limit.) Otherwise, I'm going to buy cute clothes and yummy food and have a blast! I've been saving up my birthday and Christmas money (which is really hard for me) and I can't wait to spend it.

Anyway, this month should be crazy busy - February always is. But hey, that's my life and I enjoy it. I like being busy. I just don't enkoy the stress that comes along with it. Oh well. Price you pay, I suppose.

2012

Another year has come and gone, and man, it's been an eventful one.

So here's to 2012, and making it the best yet.

Cheers!

Almost Christmas

It's almost Christmas break. I am so excited. So excited. You have no idea how excited I am. I get to sleep, and eat, and take naps, and relax, and watch movies, and sleep in, and go to bed early, and open presents, and eat cookies, and take after dinner naps, and sleep.

Have I mentioned that I get to sleep?

I'm pretty excited about sleeping.

In case you couldn't tell.

Sweet Seventeen, Baby

This pretty much sums up my birthday. Pretty awesome.

17 Times Around The Sun

Almost my birthday.

Yeah?

Thanksgiving

Turkey. Stuffing. Pumpkin pie.
Family. Friends. Fire places. 
Poker. Stories. Fond memories. 
Live. Laugh. Love.

The Right Color

It was easier in the days when all you watched was Disney movies and your only worry was whether or not you had the right color crayon to finish your picture. You didn't worry about money. You didn't worry about being liked. You didn't know about all the crap in the world. Everything back then was easier. Easier to say sorry. Easy to believe. Easier to smile. Because to a 5 year old kid, the world is perfect. Unless you couldn't find the right crayon.
