things change.thats life.

so many unimportant things to do in the past few weeks.
yet they have consumed all of my time.
odd.
once again, the subject of time.
seems to be an ironic battle.

senior dvd is done.
after many nights,
and maybe even a week of sleepless nights, the video is done.
thanks goes out to my amazing cousin joe bland for all his help.
was sweet getting to spend so much time with him.
if you don't know him, you should probably get to know him.
what a genuine person.
enough said.
thanks joe, i love you.

graduation is another story.
so much to be done.
today was the last day of school, and it didn't even seem like a day of school.
kinda disappointing.
i guess it's because i have to go back tomorrow to work on a few projects for some friends.
who knows.

i just sat through a 3 hour Bradley graduation on Saturday.
my cousin was privelaged enough to be the commencement speaker.
he did a fantastic job.

although Bradley's graduation names seemed to go on forever,
i got to spend almost the whole day with my entire family,
and got to spend the whole day with my grandma and grandpa....the utlimate of all sweet.
i think i have the best grandparents in the whole entire world.
i honestly don't think any could compare.

my graduation is on sunday.
im excited, new beginnings.
new school, new friends.
summer filled with memories to come.
im pumped.
kinda sad leaving behind the High School life though, im growing up...weird.

a lot of the blog that i posted earlier is truly becoming a reality right now.
i posted something similar to this.....a few revisions.

i love getting together with friends,
just enjoying eachother
and the love we have for eachother.
(but i already miss the way things used to be)

im sad about senior year ending. (most definately)
however, i am looking forward to college (most definately)
& making new friends.
but it's a new chapter in my life.
and to be honest.
it's kinda bumming me out.

still miss my friends...
not a day goes by that i don't think of each of you.
grandma. ashley.. zach. hanna.
im glad i can say goodbye with hope.

...and time unfortunately goes on
with memories lasting forever.
(hold on tight to memories)

and to my friends...
im going to miss just being able to hang out whenver we feel like it.
i dont know what i'll do without all of you being around.

TIME.
i hate that word.
still do, won't ever change.

teen.
the real life starts to phase in.
friendships fall.
people who mean the most
change the most.
and new relationships begin.
but somehow the new realationships can never replace those of the old ones, no matter how hard i try.
i guess people that mean the most to you
don't often realize the things they do that hurt you.
it's been this way for quite awhile.
im giving up on it.
it seems to be out of my hands.
i'll still be here when things come around.
my feelings never change.
oh well.

LOVE.should be an alternative definition for life.
life is all about
love.
this is going somewhere.
someday you'll see.
thanks to RJ.
you know.


MY FAMILY.
mom.dad.brothers.
grandpa.grandma.
aunts.uncles.cousins.
all people in your life who can never be replaced.
they are the ones you look up to in life.
and love the most.
take time to show them how much they mean to you.
they are
ones that are there for you when no one else seems to care.
a different kind of love.
unique.
....yeah

God.
still the one relationship in my life that means the most.
never changes.
100 percent consistent.
even when people
--friends, relatives, family, whoever--
seem to fail.
eternity.
never ending time.
best friend.
greatest love.
i promise you He wants a relationship with you.
bring on change.
im ready.
i dont need to sit back and watch.
who says you cant silently lead.
watch me.
it's me and You.
everything else.
it always fails.
thats sin.
i guess you learn to deal.

Meres -- I'm right there with you right now. Endings seem dull, dreary and often not worth the effort.

Beginnings bring promises of hope - future - and excitement! I look forward to watching you grow at BU. You will be a light on this campus.

Just know I'm right down the street. Stop by to celebrate the great moments and also retreat here when the world falls apart. I hope that you'll visit often. Maybe we can hold each other together in this time of transition.
