New Years

2007 is here, 2006 is yesterday. 2006 was probably one of the hardest years i've had to go through in a while, with the passing of grandpa, entering a new atmostphere such as college, battling an inter-conflict day in and day out. It did have some great points though, new friends, I got my new Xbox, etc etc. I just hope this year has alot of greater things in store for me, and my new years resolution is to become a better person.

Christmas.

Today is the big 25th of December, Santa's day, Jesus' birthday, a special time for people to come together. I am pretty happy with the way my Christmas this year has gone, got some of the things ive needed/wanted. Christmas is everyday if you truly think about it. I am thankful for all my friends and family who believe in me, the troops over in Iraq, all the things God has blessed me with. I hope 2007 will be a much better year then 2006 was, alot of hard times and sad moments plagued my year of 2006 but it has also brought me great hope and insperation to carry on. Merry Christmas.

The Real X-mas

Last night I was watching Boy Meets World, and Mr. Feeny said something that has really gotten me to thinking. I dont have the exact quote he said but he basically said that people dont realize the gifts that they are given throught the year. That got me to thinking about all the gifts I have recieved throught the year, such as, the friendship I have with my best friend,Jamie(who has stuck by my side through everything) the fact I have a family (even if I dont like it all the time) that loves me, my education in college, and all the things that I am blessed with each and everyday. I havent been excited about christmas in a long time, not since I was a little kid. I really dont care if anyone gets me anything, it wont bother me if they dont. I feel now that I think about it that christmas is each and everyday because we are given the gift of life.

Christmas.

I am almost finished with school which is wonderful. I had to write a five page paper two weeks ago which turned out to be a total bomb. Hopefully next semester will be great, but what sucks is it always takes me so long to make friends with people. I am very hard to get to know because I do not open up that easily. Anyway, Christmas is almost here, its going to be depressing since grandpa wont be with us to open our presents and share the joy. Things are still hard like always, I cant get over always being sad, I am a negative thinker on everything. So I wont set myself up for a downfall of when something good happens to me. I hope everyone is doing well, Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas.
