Lately...

SO life has been going pretty smoothly. Smoother than it used to for sure. I'm actually not having alot of 'cloudy days' lately. It's really nice. I have friends now. One in particular makes my life alot brighter. He is also one of the only people who can make me double over laughing or scare the crap out of me when he wants too. I feel really vulnerable too though. I havent opened up to someone in a really long time, and i dont want to be 'shot down in flames.'

Things are TOO happy though. I feel like at any moment everything's going to go crashing down.

Anyways, a couple of my friends found out about a little phobia of mine. I hate to be lifted off the ground. I tend to freak out a little. So, just because my reaction is funny, my friends tend to give me hugs that lift me off the ground so that my feet are like an inch of the ground, or they decided to cradle me and drop my head lower than my legs so that i feel like I'm about to fall over. They LOVED it. I'm glad someone gets a kick out of my strange quirks. =]

I even recently got reconnected to a really good old friend. Since I go to Windward and not FHS, I dont see any of my old friends anymore, or even my new ones. We decided to start the note passing system so that whenever we see each other we hand the other person a note. Why dont you just call each other? well, because 1) it's not as fun and 2) phones are unnecessary and 3) it makes me feel good when i get a note, it's like getting something in the mail, but better.

Right now, I'm outside of Portland, Oregon staying in a hotel for the VERY FIRST TIME. The ironic part is that my parents own a motel...

My family and I are heading to California over this Thanksgiving break for a church service thing my cousins are doing. It's a LOOOOOOOONNNNNGGGGG drive, and very cramped. I wish I was closer to my family members, they seem like such strangers sometimes, and i LIVE with them. But it's not like my parents ever put an effort to getting to know me. As long as i have straight A's, i dont have a boyfriend, and I dont have too much fun, they're happy. I just wish they knew me. I bet my parents dont even know my favorite color, or the name of my best friend, or even my favorite thing to do. They are THAT clueless. It's a good thing i'm too much of a goody two shoes and i dont take advantage of their cluelessness.

Anyways, HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!
