It's late and I'm tired, but if I don't blog now I will forget to this weekend. I'm running out of things to talk about and since I can't think straight most of these probably don't make a whole lot of sense. It's friday night and I went to work, came home, ate, and blogged, that's how big of a loser I am. It has been an interesting day. I can say that fourth period was pretty hilarious and somewhat embarrassing, topping off one  of the best days ever.

Things are running smoothly in my life right now and although my schedule is filling up things seem to be working out okay. I'm ready for warm weather to arrive soon though it has been cold for to long, and when spring arrives I can start soccer back up. I can't wait to get back on the field, but I don't want to rush senior year. I will take it one day at a time and enjoy it as much as possible.

I have been waiting for it to snow all day and it finally has. I'm so excited, but it is so cold outside, and I can barely drive without snow on the ground and am not going to take the chance of driving with it on the ground. Unfortunately I have to work tomorrow, but I have the night free so I can do what I want. This week is over, and went by fast. I've been so busy and continue to have plans for the next month and few weeks. It seems that this year will be over before I know it and I will be graduated. 

Despite having to go to school today and not being prepared it was a good day. I got a lot done and yet seemed to do nothing at the same time, if that's possible. Today seems longer than most and I'm not sure why. I had a lot of fun today and it was full of a lot of laughs. It helps balance out my week, because Wednesday was the worst day ever. I was in an awful mood for no reason and could not get out of it if my life depended on it. I'm just glad that I made it through the week and the week ended on a good note.

This weekend was the first weekend I didn't have to work on Saturday or Sunday in a long time. It was amazing, having two days to do whatever I wanted and not have any responisbilities. I got to go out to eat and hangout with friends. I went to church, and hungout with my sister the rest of the day. We went to the park and the library, where I got a new book to read since i just recently finished reading the twilight series. Although it was only two days to myself it felt like a vacation and I had fun and am glad that the pressures of work and school were not present.

There are traits we notice in everyone, some more noticeable than others. My friend Meghann has a tendency to use the word freakin in every sentence she says, and Taylor, another friend has over a thousand different facial expressions. A trait that I instantaneously associate with Courtney is her snorting that always accompanies her laugh. Molly's trait, I would consider most everyone notices is the volume at which she speaks for it is extremely loud. Everyone has certain traits that stand out to us, or maybe they are more subtle, either way all of us have habits that are repititious rather they go noticed or not.

1. Riding in a car with Meghann Anderson

2. Going somewhere you aren't supposed to be

3. Doing the Cinnamon Challenge

4. Trying to fight Dusty

5. Talking to a lot of people at one time on the computer

6. Putting people on hold

7. Eating at Cheeseburger in Paradise before soccer practice

8. Trying to drive your car home when it keeps dying

9. Running down icy steps

10. Not looking where you are walking

Possibilities....this word is full of instability and ifs. I am unsure of what the new year has in store for me, but am excited to find out. I plan on graduating high school and attending college here in town for the first year. As for detailed plans, I don't have any yet and I plan to see how things go and where I end up. I'm usually not the type of person to not have a plan, but what else are supposed to do when you don't know what you want to do with the rest of your life except plan to go to college and see where that gets you. I hope to find some of my interests while I'm there as well as make some new friends, which I'm sure I will. Sometime this year, later on, I hope to have gotten somewhere with knowing what I want to do with my life. I'm sure the new year will bring good things and bad and hopefully I can see good in the bad. I'm sure this year will be my most life changing thus far in my life, and I hope it can be said that it changed for the better.

I'd like to start by saying that I don't believe in superstitions. I don't know how they got started or why, but then again that can be said for a lot of things. There are many things of which I am unsure and many things I wish I knew more about. Superstitions, I believe to be created for enterainment purposes alone. Do I believe in bad luck and good luck? Is it the same as superstitions? I believe we create our own luck. What we get is what we have created for ourselves, it can't be blamed on myths and legends. It is true that some things are out of our control, but it is also safe to say that we do have control over most of the things that go on in our lives, and most of the opportunites in our lives we can create ourselves.

Looking and thinking back on 2009 memories flood back of good times well spent as well as bad times that try to be forgotten. However, the bad memories that are unable to be forgotten may remain for a reason, that reason being to help us learn from them. The good memories that occured throughout the year are often forgotten, despite the joy we got out of them. Often times we dwell too much on the bad things and must refocus our attention on the good things. It seems to me that sometimes the bad things leave a big impact on our life, but all that is needed is a hint of happiness to make things right again. This year has started off great, and I'm aware that it will bring things with it that won't be something I'll consider to be good, but I hope that with these things I'll see the purpose behind them.
