Forwarded email from my Mom!

I believe - That just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they
don't love each other. And just because they don't argue, it doesn't
mean they do.

I believe - That we don't have to change friends if we understand that
friends change.

I believe - That no matter how good a friend is, they're going to hurt
you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.
I believe - That true friendship continues to grow, even over the
longest distance. Same goes for true love.

I believe - That you can do something in an instant that will give you
heartache for life.

I believe - That it's taking me a long time to become the person I want
to be.

I believe - That you should always leave loved ones with loving words.
It may be the last time you see them.

I believe - That you can keep going long after you think you can't.

I believe - That we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we
feel.

I believe - That either you control your attitude or it controls you.

I believe - That heroes are the people who do what has to be done when
it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.

I believe - That money is a lousy way of keeping score.

I believe - That sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're
down will be the ones to help you get back up.

I believe - That sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry,
but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.

I believe - That maturity has more to do with what types of experiences
you've had and what you've learned from them and less to do with how
many birthdays you've celebrated.

I believe - That it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.

I believe - That no matter how bad your heart is broken, the world
doesn't stop for your grief.

I believe - That our background and circumstances may have influenced
who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.

I believe - Two people can look at the exact same thing and see
something totally different

I believe - That your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people
who don't even know you.

I believe - That even when you think you have no more to give, when a
friend cries out to you - you will find the strength to help.

I believe - That credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human
being.

I believe - That the people you care about most in life are taken from
you too soon.

I believe - That you should send this to all of the people that you
believe in. I just did. The happiest people don't necessarily have the
best of everything; they just make the best of everything they have.

Haunting flowers

Hey guys,

I had some time before class so I was looking through some of my old posts and then decided to post something new.

I'm not sure if that last sentence made sense, but, what the heck, its 10:24 in the morning.

Usually I would be waking up about now for my 11am class but I got up early and didnt feel like going back to sleep. Dont get me wrong, Im really tired, but then again, when am I not tired?

Today is the beginning of the rest of your life! No, I dont know why I just said that, today is the beginning of the final stretch of the semester. This is the first day of classes for this week because yesterday was Easter Monday.

I pray that everyones Easter was wonderful and refreshing enough to get them through the rest of the semester.

Classes are going ok, my intimidating class isnt so bad right now, so, thats good.

I just feel like Im floating through life right now. Like Im just dreaming and its not really happening. Maybe I procrastinate too much, no, not maybe, I do procrastinate too much. I can see it when I read my old posts.

I dont know, maybe next semester will be better b/c it will be a little bit closer to normal. Im gonna miss Emily but Carrie and Jess will be here. Maybe that will wake me up.

Oh, Chris, I'm sorry I didn't really say much when you picked Matthew up to go back to school. I haven't been feeling well lately and was kinda zoned out. How you doin?

The Game

You lost! So did I!

On Michael's voicemail:

"Hey Michael...you remember 'the game' right? You just lost...so did I" - me
Clarinet

You are quiet, reserved, but very creative. A lot of people don't seem to understand you because you have your own 'beat'. You enjoy both the light and dark side of life, and sometimes this comes off as a little creepy. You are sometimes too quiet, you need to learn to speak up!!! You are very intreperative and creative in your workplace/activities and tend to be a good follower. You often dislike confrontation and would rather just forget problems, as opposed to fighting or talking about them. You love to read and write, and love to look very 'Posh'. Although you are often misunderstood, you are undoubtably cool.

Say it isn't so!

When did we become adults? Ok, change that...when did we start talking/having awkward conversations like adults? I mean, I know that I am technically an adult, but I usually only use my adult voice when I'm talking to people older than me...not those the same age.

I just had a very weird conversation with someone who Ive known for awhile and is the same age.

"Hey 'T' whats up?" - me
"Oh..nothing...just, keeping busy.." - T
"Ok, well,I guess...I'll see you later." - me

Keeping busy? What the heck?
