See how it thrives, in the ashes of our lives
...I never considered that! I was thinking too small with the material possessions. Body organs! Of course! It's so simple!

Alright, alright. So, guess what I found out today? I figured out what I'm going to do with the rest of my life, that's what. It's all laid out before me now. No more questions, no more worrying. What sort of profession has caught my attention so vividly you might ask? Well I'll tell you:
Storm chasing!
That's right! I'm going to be a frickin storm chaser. How kick ass is that? I want to drive around for eight weeks all over the mid-west chasing tornadoes! I love storms - I was always interested in weather and clouds and stuff when I was little. And think of the adrenaline rush it would be and all science you'd get out of it! I bet you thought I was joking, but I'm not. I want to be a storm chaser dagnabit, so I guess I need to be a meteorologist first, but honestly, think about how cool that would be. Then in the off season, I could be an occupational therapist and run the diner with Kellbell! XD Haha. What a future that would be! Seriously, I'm excited. Think of all the fun driving I would get to do too, were I the driver of the team. I love driving - I'm good at it. And I love driving fast. Now I'd have the excuse to be able to do it. Frickin sweet! ^^ Honestly, some of my favorite things all in one: cameras and filming, storms with all their unpredictable chaos and spontaniety, the insane driving, traveling all across the states, actually helping people in the aftermath, and an extreme, hard-core adrenaline rush unlike any other! It's intense and exciting and daring and important and takes a little bit of insanity. It's perfect. So hells yeah, people, I want to be a frickin storm chaser!
I wonder if I can find a storm chasing internship... XD
As for the passing of 2008, it saddens me. Want to know why? Because I like even numbers. And I will have a long odd-numbered year to suffer through next year. Heh. Think I can handle it though. Have lots of exciting things planned already. Maybe I'll go skydiving, get a british or irish accent (or meet a special someone with either one of those X3), swim with dolphins, actually do everything on the "things to do at Walmart" list, read every book from A to Z in the humor section at the bookstore, get a motorcycle and ride across the country, have a party on the elevators at school, make more sparkling friends, film the Zombie Musical, or even build that time machine and conquer the universe with Jae! The only thing I need to worry about is getting a job and fixing my leg. New years resolutions? Get a job, fix my leg, get in shape, make no more mistakes, and really just take everything as it comes and enjoy it (sexually). Haha, just kidding. That's quite the opposite of what I plan on doing, but that statement was asking for it. Lols. Anyway, this year has been full of its ups and downs. Happy memories, sad memories, regretful memories. But I learned a lot and there will be no more mistakes ever like the ones I made this year. I also made about a zillion new friends this year that I am so incredibly grateful for! It's weird how from the worst situations, good things, even great things can still happen. I also don't think I've ever been so accepting of myself until now. It's finally comfortable, and I'm happy, really truly happy. I think I'm ready for the new year though, anyway. Just look at all the fun stuff waiting for me in '09 (even if it is an odd number)!
So, 2008, I bid thee adieu with an almost fond farewell. If anything, it's been an interesting adventure and quite the learning experience.
And Happy New Year everyone! I wish you the best and happiest memories to come! So break open the alcohol, go streaking through your neighborhood with confetti glued to your body, get covered in bubblewrap and roll down a flight of stairs, blow your noisemaker as loudly as you can in your best friend's ear (sexually! XD), whatever you plan on doing, just make sure you have fun in welcoming the new year. <3
Now, back to watching Richie Rich. Heh. Aw. The little kitty up there has a flower. :3
