mixed emotionsyes.. what a surprise. i have mixed emotions. but it's not very important. just about this whole louisiana thing. i mean, i am likin' it here a lot. i enjoy spending time with dad and kera, and all my other family and friends as well. but i really miss home. i guess you could call me homesick. i dunno.
this past week was sorta eventful. we didn't really do anything until tuesday. the family went out to toledo bend to spend some time outdoors, fishing, relaxing, that kind of thing. we had a really good time, and spent two nights there. it was cool, spending some quality time with dad, fishing and swimming. i haven't fished in forever, so that was great. i read a lot there too. it was really quiet out there.. peaceful.
we came back yesterday all tired and whatnot. we were actually planning a canoe trip today, but that was a big N-O when we figured we'd be too tired. we would've had to get up at six this morning. which wouldn't be
horrible, but you get the picture. we've been going and going for a little while, and my dad felt like it was time to give it a rest for a day or two. i did, however, get up this morning and run. something i haven't done in like a week. i'm planning on keeping up that trend until cross country starts. oh man.. cross country season's already almost here. y'all have no idea how
excited i am for that to start up. last season was so AWESOME, and i know this season's gonna be just as good if not better. anyway, like i was saying.. so we're gonna relax for a few days, probably until sunday. sunday we're planning on going canoeing, but that might end up getting cancelled again because of rain in the forecast. which kinda sucks, but what can you expect from the south? speaking of weather, how bout that freakin' hurricane? that's so gay. now i've gotta wait a whole 'nother year to go to florida. well, all i can say is that i'm looking forward to it.
random thoughts.
- my dad says i can't get my permit till alaska, which is understandable because you don't have to pay a ridiculous amount of money there to get it. the only thing that sucks is i'll have to wait an extra six months to get my license.
- zack got his license on wednesday. lucky piece of crap.
- i really enjoy hot fudge sundaes from sonic, but like 2 seconds after i start eating them they always give me a brain freeze. and i don't even eat them that fast.
- i did a lot of thinking in toledo bend, and in the car on the way home. i think that once i get to alaska, i want to start writing letters to people. actual letters because i think they have a lot more meaning.
- again, while thinking in the car i realized that lately i've really been aching for someone to be with. someone to hold, a girl who'll like me for me, a girl who i can be myself around and not care, a girl that's not afraid to show affection in the middle of a huge crowd of people (and i don't mean like making out in the middle of no where. just holding hands, hugging, whatever), a girl who i can feel really comfortable around. but i'm scared that if i do that, it'll make moving to alaska that much harder.
- i'm starting to miss my fender fat strat. and my acoustic is getting a little old. i still love playing, but i want something new.
- i saw Fantastic Four today, and it was freakin' awesome. a lot better than what i expected.
- Myspace is retarded, and i don't know why i still use it. but i do.
- if i had a super power, it would be super-speed.
