Do you get weary? Do you ever get weak? How do you dream when you can't fall asleep?
Desktop Publishing class.. what a joke ;)
Needless to say, life has been very hectic and busy. Between school, cheering practices/games/competitions, work, and a personal life, I've been kind of worn out. It's almost as though time is slipping through my fingers. Everyday, I'm coming to the realization that I'm a step closer to graduating from this place. And even though it's exciting, it's scary as well. There's a big world out there, with many different decisions that I will eventually have to make. I've never been one to particularly like change, but I do know that I need a new environment, new people, and new experiences.
But, I still really wish I was back to be in elementary school. Things were so much more simple then...

I celebrated my 18th birthday last Thursday! Mmm, an adult now? I went out with friends to Flatbreads for lunch, and mum took me out for dinner with my Aunt Dina, Sabrina & Shannon, and Memere. I honestly think I've been blessed with the best family there is. :)

Yesterday would have been my Grampy's birthday. It's been so long since I updated... Grampy died December 23rd, 2005, after complications with cancers, surrounded by family in Florida. I have a lot of anger with the whole situation. I feel as though I should have been able to see him before he left. The phone calls were just not enough to feel anything. I wish I could have held his hand, kissed his cheeks, and told him to not be scared.
It's been an emotionally trying time lately. I feel a lot for the emotions my dad must be feeling. The day I lose one of my parents will be the day that everything good falls apart in my life.. I don't even like to think about it.
RIP, Paul Staples. <3

On a lighter note, I'm getting my Lifeguarding license during February vacation!!!
So hopefully, if things go well, I'm going to apply for a job at the beach for the summer.
It's ideal for me really... the beach is my favorite place to be. <3
No college acceptances yet. My mom keeps bickering that I've applied late. I applied in December?
For now, I'll patiently (and nervously) wait for letters from Northeastern, Endicott, and Orono.
Wish me luck.
Cheering ends this week. It's bittersweet. I probably won't ever cheer again in my lifetime, unless the college I go to sucks at cheering ;) So far, I've lost about 10 pounds since November.
Softball starts in mid-March. New coaches. Let's see what this season has in store for me... benchtime? I think so. We'll make it fun though. We always do.
PS) Jessica Diolio... the softball mixes won't be the same without your expertise. You better help me out. :D
