Riding yesteday was nice, because suddenly I feel like I'm the on the verge of getting somewhere, whereas before I just felt like I was going in circles and never getting anywhere.... But that's feeling starting to fade away.
My aunt Laura is working on a scrapbook of our trip. I have to go get mine, so that she can look at it. Even though mine is a bit strange.
I love listening to music.
I tried to got to bed at 10, but I couldn't fall asleep until 12. I had all this music running through my head, and I wanted to go turn it on.. But I couldn't... Or I didn't. I have to work on that, though... I can't really keep sleeping from 12-8, as a general time when school starts.
I'll see you guys later. I only have three days, and today, until school starts. Where is all the time going??

I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
And we are led
To those who help us most to grow
If we let them
And we help them in return
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you...
Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
I have been changed for good
It may well be
That we will never meet again
In this lifetime
So let me say before we part
So much of me
Is made of what I learned from you
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have re-written mind
By being my friend...
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a skybird
In a distant wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you..
Because I knew you...
Because I knew you
I have been changed for good...
And just to clear the air
I ask forgiveness
For the things I've done you blame me for
But then, I guess we know
There's blame to share
And none of it seems to matter anymore
Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Half-way through the wood
Like a ship blow off its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a bird in the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
I do believe I have been changed for the better
And because I knew you...
Because I knew you...
I have been changed for good.
