i need to journal more. its only to my detriment that i don't, and not others. i haven't had my outlet for the longest time, although i feel so damn self-righteous saying aloud all the silliness in my head and how important it is. however, if i don't it tends to seep out of my life in unexpected and usually unhealthy ways. so perhaps my belated new years resolution will be to journal more. lets see how this goes, shall we?
i'm leaving friday for Allentown, PA to go skiing with a girlfriend for our joint birthdays. a side trip to NYC on Saturday is planned, complete with tickets to see Grease on Broadway, tourist stuff, and dinner and drinks with my brother who lives there. you know, i looked at a map of Manhattan on amelia's wall in our room for almost 2 years, and never realized how small the island is. i'm sure i'll fall in love with it while i'm there, but i would soon grow tired and want something new, were i to ever live there. i don't get people who are "manhattan-ites" and refuse to leave the island. come on. like the world doesn't exist outside of there? i'm a little nervous about going skiing since i have a history of bad knees. i will take it easy and just play in the snow and be a snow bunny for a couple days, and come back in one piece.
i've had a rocky past couple months. emotionally i'm a bit tattered. thank God for my close friends. and thank God for music. and thank God for His grace. else i'd be a lot worse off. i can only go up from here. :)
