SO, last night was awesome. I rang in the new year with some old friends, and some newly acquired ones. I wasnt with my family, so that was kinda sad, but i did tell them all happy new years, and i was with them today. Family is second to no one in life, and although everyone has a different family, they are your backbone.
Just an FYI, i have narcolepsy. So last night around 1:30 i fell asleep in mid conversation standing up in the kitchen. To my surprise i woke up this morning with a blanket and a pillow on the floor under a Christmas tree in the living room. weird eh?
The day presceded to go downhill when i found out that the piped in my house had frozen, the sink in our bathroom had broken, and we had run out of fuel for our heat. It was a great start to the year. We finally unfroze the pipes and we got some gas, and i thought to myself. i am thankful for having this roof over my head and food on the table every day. We can't let some minor setbacks ruin our days, right? Life is way to short to spend it mad or sad.
so here i am now, wrapped up in this super awesome batman blanket my girl friend got me, talking to her, wishing she was in my arms. she is my favorite thing about 2008, and my favorite thing about my future. If you could just meet this girl, you would be blown away by the person she is. everyday, i find courage to do more, just by the things she says and thinks about. For such a small girl, she has already changed the world so much. She is in peace studies, she works at the Ronald McDonald house, she volenteers at every local soup kitchen and homeless shelter, she just signed up to donate bone marrow, she gives blood whenever she can, she is signed up for the peace corps, she does summer camps with kids, AND she still has time to love me with her whole heart. She is a stunning young lady, sometimes i just cant stop looking at her, wondering how someone could be so incredibly powerful and meaningful to me. I know i am young, and i can't change what will happen in the future, but whatever it is, i hope that i get to share it with her.
I could go on and on about this young girl, but i won't. she is just the one thing that is on my mind in this new year, and i cannot wait to go back to school and see her. i miss her so damn much.
Well i hope everyones new years is going well and i hope the rest of the year treats everyone kindly.
