There are officially 2 weeks and 5 days left of school for this semester. The reality of the ending of my junior year is really setting in. I find myself often looking back at this school year and what has and hsa not taken place. I will be 21 this year and I find myself re-evaluating everything that I though I was and what I want to become. I know that I am not the only one who has been doing this either. In the movie 30 Years to Life a group of friends were evaluating their lives and what they hoped to have had by this time. If you have not seen this movie you should...it was like looking at my own personal circle.
While talking to a friend this week I realized that many people on campus are looking and seeing the same things that my friends and I always talk about. He said something interesting..he said that there are too many goodlooking people on campus who were unhappy. I found this interesting because I am hearing of more situations where those in relationships are leaving them because they are not happy and somehow they thought that being in one would make them happy. The reality is that most people who are not happy with themselves will not be happy with someone else. While talking to my friend he asked me what I thought would be the best way to avoid ending up in a situation like that, and I found that odd because he was so much older than me and I felt like he should be shedding some wisdom in my direction. But I answered him saying that it is important to find ourselves and be comfortabel with yourself. I feel like my girls and I are on the road to self-discovery and I told him that it is important to have peopl ein your life who won't let you feel sorry for yourself and who will tell you the truth. My friend was very impressed and told me that though there were goodlooking people on campus he was looking for something that was really of substance, his words were actually something with some fire... Wraping this up, it is important to exercise faith (and I'm speaking to myself too..) and trust God. It is obvious that he will not fail us or intentionally do wrong to us, clearly how far we have come is an indication of that. Just be prepared in case your day is today... I believe that is the time that I should be working on me. This is probably the only time that I will have in my life to worry about only me. I might as well enjoy it.

Answering your own questions...
i guess u know what to do.....no comment from me.
so was the guy cute? sorry to change the subject, you're absolutely right krys
i love your new look, btw. blue is my favorite
lol at Jailyn, and Kell always the first to notice you get an A+>lol Blue is a good color. Anyway, Krys, your birthday is September 19th am I right. Look foward to it it'll be a good time! Also, the man(your friend) asked "you" because you have good insight! Actually all of you do! Ya'll are women with some brains, and the man complimented you with that whole ordeal! I had a friend two years ago who was about more than five years older than me. My best friend, we would talk everyday after class. I wondered how we could have the conversations that we had. But, like Krys said, eh they should be dropping knowledge on us;right? But, to have a conversation in depth; it's, in my opinion a value of your insight/your opinion in itself. (sorry for writing a novel)>lol :-P :-)
