Its SNOWING!! I just love the snow, despite the fact it completely messes up any plans I had for today sadly.  It just puts you in a "christmasy" mood! 
I dont know what I'd do if I lived somewhere where it didn't snow for christmas.  It just wouldn't be christmas...I can't imagine being able to swim during christmas or wear shorts and t-shirt.  The fun of christmas is the snow and clothes and all that fun stuff!
Anyways, not much to update about really.

  Christmas is in just a little over a month, and on the news today that I was watching apparently not nearly as many people have been donating this year to good will and other places.  Apparently all this could be because of the Hurricane season this year with hurricane Katrina.  I still think its sad though, so many people could easily spare some money or second hand stuff to give to the less fortuneate, but suddenly no one seems to be able to find the time. 
I know people may not have the time, but does it really take that much out of your day to donate something? it could be anything at all...I happen to be 18 so my financial situation means that I don't have much to spare, but anyone can manage to give a little, although I suppose if we haven't been "less fortunate" in our lives we really don't know what it means to wake up on christmas morning without any presents under the tree...or without getting what we asked for.
Maybe its too much to ask since I know people DID donate alot with hurricane Katrina, but it seems now that people feel satisfied with themselves. 
Those are just a few of my thoughts on the situation, I know ANYONE could find the time or something to donate, even if its only a few dollars or an old teddybear...

This is a new blog for me, so I'll try to keep this one interesting and updated, no promises though.
its kind of depressing outside today, cold and blah, so it got me thinking.  I hate how life changes, nothing ever really stays the same for very long.  People change, and you grow apart from them and theres nothing you can do about it, or maybe your the one changing, while everyone else stays the same.  Either way, people move on and friends change.
moving on is inevitable, but scary none the less.  New people, new experiences, new places, new opportunities.  As we're growing up we can't wait to be "grown up" but when we actually do start to grow up, we dont want things to change.  The way things were before are how we wanted them to stay, instead we were forced to move apart, to move on, and make decisions for ourselves.  I've gone in my direction, hoping it works out, while everyone else has done the same.
There are always promises to "stay in touch" and get together over holidays, and those plans work for the first few months, then letters get forgotten, phone calls unreturned, and friends forever drift apart.

The thought of college this year was so exciting, finally independence, and change! but sadly, maybe that wasn't exactly what we wanted, and now theres no going back, live moves on whether your ready or not.
