| Hello Xanga, Up at 7:27am... actually i've been up since 3... i woke up to something i didnt wanna quite see.. but dats ANOTHER WHOLE STORY haha rite now... i just thought id talk bout my day... Well yesterday (saturday) was a very very good day. Even tho i had like 3 hours of sleep cuz i came home hella late on friday nite and woke up at like 7am to get ready for my youth group's retreat. When i got there... seein all da group members all these together.... something we have NEVA been able to do... usually at meetins or other events we have like 4-6 people and it was always da same 4-6 people... but finally we had MOST of da group there... so about 25 people... but seein everyone there.. smiling.... laughin even tho most of us were tired haha... it was a great feelin... like da feeling you get wen u havent seen a great friend for YEARS den finally do... it was a great feeling.... then the retreat was great too... we got to recharge and get ourself back together and get ready for da much busy year we have ahead of us. I love that group to death... its like my 2nd family... i always have a blast wen im wit them. Which is why im always willing to attend all meetings and events. I just wish everytime we have meetings/events all 25 members would be there... With our retreat done... all da excitement of doing da 11th & 12th graders retreat came back rushin through me. I had soo much fun last year at da 12th grade retreat... and now that da 11th grade retreat is on a different week then da Seattle Basketball Trip.. i can finally go to da 11th... and im soo excited cuz this year im taking a bigger role as the 2nd Emcee... im training to be da Head Emcee for future retreats... even tho i HATE talkin in front of people... i believe wit my humor mixed in wit my exp. and wise side... i can help out alot of young adults who are in 11th and 12th grade. Which for da next couple of years.. will be some friends of mine, since i know alot of kids around dat age group. Which is always a big thing.... i mean talkin infront of kids who are 1-2 years younger den u is scary.. its like English class all ova again. But having a bigger role in this group was my goal for this year. I wanna help out wit as much as i can. MAN im just soo excited haha.. i wish March was next week... haha but ya even tho retreats arent til march... we got alot of other things to do until then... like our Xmas Show we're hosting at our Church. Also the Teachers Xmas party that we're hosting too. PLUS our Snowboarding trip that we're tryin to raise money for. Which would be pretty kewl... goin on a trip wit da whole group.... i know dat would be a great trip ^_^.... PLUS all those meetings we'll have for da 11th grade retreat and da 12th grade retreat.... busy busy... haha K... time to get ready for 9 hours of work >_< grrrrrr and its SOOOOO BORING |

| I think i have alot of sowwies to give out... i mean not everything was my fault.. but i had some fault... i just got done reading some letters i got from my last retreat when i was a leader... i read the letter that my cousin (lisa) wrote to me... and i guess i was wrong to forget about her and leave her and say all those things i said... me and her has always be close even wen we werent... i rememba wen we were lido... we would always hang out together and talk bout anything... even tho we dont talk... and i know shes mad at me... i still dink bout her.. and pray that shes doing good.... praying that god watches ova her as for my other friends... forgive me for over reacting and doin the things i did... iono wats up wit me lately... but like i said before... im just at the stage where i dink everyone is fake... and i just need sometime to be alone and do things on my own.... I also read a letter my 12th grade sunday skewl teacher wrote to me... she was my partner durin dat last retreat... i forgot everythign that that letter said... but now since i read it... it just got me all sad... cuz in da letter she says how my parents was soo happy and eyes full of tears wen she was talkin to dem bout me... and how she said i was the one to brin hope, love, and happiness bak to my parents... how i was suppose to be da light in their life... and wen she said how my dad.... how hes the type of person who doesnt talk much... but she said wen he talked about me... his eyes was ful of tears -_-.... and all this just hits me cuz i havent been such a great son lately... i havent told dem wat i really wanted to do wit college and pretty much just stay in my room everyday.... i really do wanna do somethign to make them proud of me... I also read all da other lido notes all the retreatants wrote to me... and honestly.. its scary wen people thats ur age sayin they look up to you... i have neva been looked up too before... im usually da one lookin up haha.. but really i rememba all da memories durin those 3 days at the retreat... even tho i didnt feel like i changed anyones lives... i still did... and i know by da letters they wrote to me... many of them were surprised to see a different side of me.. a more serious side... a more emotional side... I havent been da greatest person lately.. and i hope everyone can forgive me... |

| What sup guys... haven't done much talking lately.. just decided to update on whoeva wants to know... know wats up wit me... Well things haven't been all dat goodie.. but ey im still living... So pretty much... im at dat stage where i dink everyone around me is a fake... dat everyone is just lyin to my face bout everything.. and doin shiet behind my bak... i know some aren't but im so confused dat i dink everyone is fake... which makes me just wanna be alone... like i wanna do things by myself... i just don't know wats up wit me lately... but to me everyone who's close to me is a fake... and its hard to tell who's not and who is... -_- As for my school part of my life... im still scared of college.. but i kinda have an idea wat i wanna do and where i wanna go.. so far my Goal is attend PCC for a year then transfer to UofO... but im still alido on the MAYBE side... i mean UofO seems like a great place.. its hella chill... and i can focus on skewl... but its far from home... and everything... I really do wanna attend dere but a year is still a long time to decide and things mite change.. i mite stay at PCC... who knows Rite now... im pretty much just tryin to find a job... save up for a car... i dink life would be pretty easier on me wen i got my own money... own ride... do things on my own... not needin anyone else... Goals for the rest of da year -Get a Job -Save up -Get my permit and license -Get a Car -Register for School |
