It's been like weeks and days since I've last written, not that anyone has been complaining. I have been extremely busy with school finals and working full time....haven't had a lot of time to do the things that I like to do. I can't believe that it's already 2005! It seems like the year 2000 had just rolled around. When I look back and think about all the things that I have happened this past year, it just seems like it all flew by so fast.

I miss skipping class with Lydia and Stephanie, and pretending that Steph's leg was sprained so that we could have an excuse for coming to class late. I'll never forget that on...

My best friend and I the other day were talking about how certain people will change when they are around others.
