Senior Year about to begin.

Well, in two days my senior year begins. For the most part, it will be a really great year. Sure I don't like how myself and every other guy at school will have to wear a belt and our shirts tucked in every day. I definitely don't like how we have to have mesh or clear backpacks this year either. But, in exchange for that garbage, I have a solo in our marching band half time show and might possibly get to go to University of Alabama's Honors College. :D :D :D Really excited about those things. Also, summer is over and I am so happy that it is. My summer has been extrememely rough. For one, my mom got kidney cancer and had to have her left kidney removed and the rest of my summer has been to help her recover. Also, I have been trying to do better on my ACT scores and find money to pay for college. For the most part, I haven't worried about women this summer. I've just been trying to relax. Although I am very happy to say that I can now play Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin, the entire song from memory, on acoustic. :D :D :D :D :D Its my all time favorite song. Anyway, hopefully this will be a good year.

Summer 2010

Well, it's officially summertime. So this means I have to make my first summer blog post. :D Well, life has been stressful for the past few months, this entire semester for example. I am finished with Advanced Placement United States History!! and Pre-Calculus! :D That in itslef makes me happy. But, I am also now a senior in high school and this means I will have a very busy year coming up. I am both scared and excited simultaneously. Although most people do not experience this feeling until graduation night, I felt this very recently, yesterday in fact. Over the course of this semester, I met and have gotten to know a truly amazing person who I am so lucky to be able to call her my friend. Long story short, she came from Germany and has to go to another school next year in order to graduate here. I am sad to see her leave but I will never forget her and one day we will meet again. So I had to deal with that slight depression. On top of this, I have to look for scholarships to pay for college because I was not fortunate to be born in a wealthy household. I was just raised in very warm, loving, and nurturing one. :D Either way, I have to look for that. To help make my resume look better, I have been volunteering. Not as my sole reason to volunteer, but simply because I have nothing else to do over summer break. So I spend my summers helping people and this will be my seventh summer volunteering. You do the math when I am currently 17. ;) More than likely I will be at a local schools day camp, a local Adult Day Care, and possibly Hospice or VA Hospital. In other matters, I am still single. Been looking for that one special woman in my life. Hopefully this will be my year, as in getting scholarships for school, good grades, great memories, and a girlfriend. :D Well, that's it for now. Have a good summer. I will try to post as often as needed.

Life

Well, Life is complicated right now. My friend that I was really close to pretty much stabbed me in the back and now I have lost her forever. Long story short, she made me believe one thing when she had it planned to do the exact opposite later on. So now, she isn't my friend anymore. However, I did get my other MALE best friend back. And also I might have a potential prom date. I have a few more options now then I used to have. So hopefully, Life is looking up a little for me. Peace Out.

Well, life is all around pretty awesome. BUT it can be just a little better. My parents told me that they want me to enjoy school and not put so much pressure on myself. Therefore, I will not have to spend so many nights studying constantly. I can relax more. That's good. Second, I am having a good spring break and helping people out in my community. Specifically, at Caring Days. Its an adult day care center for senior citizens with memory disorders. I help out over there and love it. And finally, I have a very close friend who happens to be a girl. And I am very happy to say that she feels the same about me as I do about her. So that could mean something great in my future. Bye!

Life

Well, Life right now for me is very complicated. My eyes are giving me physical pains that cause me to have headaches and I strain so much to see I am releived to go to sleep at night. I am struggling for the first time in a class, AP US History to be in fact, and I am fighting to keep a B in there and that is stressing me mentally. I haven't had much time to devote myself to God. Stressing me spiritually. And I am infatuated with my best friend. She is an amazing person and yet, I did not fully realize my feelings for her until recently and I have been trying to get her dating another guy. And it looks like she just might. I am very stressed out and really would like some kind of order in my life again. I seem almost as if a different person now. A person I don't like.

Lent

Ok. It has been forever since I have posted anything new. I have been under a lot of stress lately and I need some kind of help. I beleive that I can get the best help from God by actively participating in Lent this year. I love the idea of us humans giving something dear to us for 40 days as a reminder of what Jesus experienced in the desert through the temptations of Satan. What I will give up, is very personal and I do not wish to disclose it, but after Lent I will become a much better person all around, less of a hypocrite, and hopefully closer to God.

Is it Possible?

Christmas time. The most wonderful time of year. People are being nice to one another waiting anxiously for the holiday to come. A time for when everyone puts their differences aside and celebrate the holiday together. "Peace on Earth and Good Will toward Men". But if we can do that once a year, why can't we do that ALL year. Why can't we forgive our neighbors and be friends. To have no more fighting or nuclear weapons that can destroy the world. Why can't we have a world in where you don't have to worry if someone will rob and try to kill you in the middle of the night. Why can't we have a world where fighting is removed from our dictionaries? WHY? People. That's why. There are plenty of people that agree with my ideas, but there are people who are not willing to sacrifice their pride. People who can't stand to lose in any way. People who are racist and sexist who won't even try to listen to other opinions about their decisions. People who think that the world is against them and try to get revenge on it. If we can make it so that everyone WANTS to change for the better, then we can have Peace on Earth. A man named Jimi Hendrix, a man wise beyond his 27 years he was here, once said " When the Power of Love overcomes the Love of Power, then the world will know Peace". It will be something in which we can never make it as law or have any kind of force behind it. The Earth and her people will have to rise up one day and say "We shouldn't be doing this" and throws their weapons, their hate, and their prejudice aside. When will that be? God only knows. A year? Two years? 1000? or a million? Time won't matter because when that day finally comes, all the time in the universe could have been spent on it, and it would still be worth it. That's all for tonight. God Bless and Pax Vobiscum.
