| So, this may or may not be the final post that I'll ever put up on Xanga.
It's amazing really. I look back at all the previous posts that I've put up and re-read them. Many filled with great feelings and success and several filled with "emo" thoughts and what I used to believe were darker times. I re read everything, and probably will for the rest of my life, to see how I grew up, how I wrote, how I matured over these 5 or 6 years of just plain...writing. The memories will never be forgotten, and the stories will remain forever. I just believe that I wrote here for someone, there was always someone looking here hoping to find another post, to see an update on my life, basically to check up on me and see how everything is going. Everyone knows who that person is, and im sure that person knows as well.
I feel that it's just a chapter of my life that has come to an end. A great chapter that shall always remain to my identity and to who I am as a person. Everything here has come down to one thing, I have grown up. I hate to say it, but it's true. Reality has really shifted gears and now I have to deal with it and not stall.
But here I am ranting again, pointlessly, but still enjoying it. Just know, I'm still here, I'm still alive.
Thank you Xanga, for all the years, keeping my memories stored where I am able to live a past life once more.

| Wow, a month has gone by already since new years...pretty crazy stuff.
Just updating on some highlights:
-Partied up New Years at John/Ileia/Brad/Liz's new apt. Lots of poker and hanging out there. Got to celebrate New Years with Gina. Good stuff
-Dodged an accident, it was scary how it happened and how close it was to a head on collision.
-School Started >> It's a lot of work right now
-Found out my Grandpa had a mini-stroke. I'm extremely relived that he's alright. The family had a meeting on how to get everything out of Des Moines.
-Parents came over 2 days before my birthday, went to celebrate at the John Hancock. Justin spent the night and brought his computer. Gina came over the day after (the day before my birthday) and spent the night to the day of. She got me this awesome Link Plushy. My parents, Justin and her got me a new video card: BFG Nvidia 9800 GTX+. My games have never ran so smooth.
-partied too much the next weekend >>
-Already had a Cell Bio Test. Wasn't too bad...ended up getting an 80.
-Kevin's Birthday came up a couple days ago and we celebrated that.
-Super Bowl was good times as we got a lot of people packed into the room watching the TV in the new living room set up we have now. Looks great.
-Still have to set up some movie times for the weekend. Gregg and I have been stocking up on movies to watch over the semester. So far we watched Panyo. Fun stuff.
-I've been goin to the gym everyday so far (chill on the weekends). I have a few personal goals, weight wise and such. Hopefully I get to lose 10 lbs by the end of the semester. I've been tryin so long to get 10 pounds off, but its so friggin hard and I don't really know why
Well thats all I can really think of on the top of my head. I've just been making plans for the upcoming everything this month. I had this Bede paper that I just started/finished today. It wasn't too bad, just a lot of stalling goin on between. I remember when 4 page papers used to suck to write, especially during high school. Now its kind of the norm. A lot of tests comin up this month....time to get back to the books.

| Another year has passed bringing us all into a new and exciting chapter of life.
It was interesting how things played out this year. I look back to the past 365 days and start to see them more as 12 long days. Looks like thats how my xanga was written out too. The year was played out with a lot of push and pull with pretty much everything. Everything with finishing up my first year of college and going into watching my brother enter college. Having trouble finding a job and ending up getting one of a more enjoyable laid back, driving job. Being able to see the person who I care most about everyday in the past summer to seeing her for a week in the 2008 summer.
I looked at my sony ericsson today, I remembered when I got it at the beginning of the year and now its torn to pieces. Its gone through a lot and it was always with me chillin in my pocket. I went through the pictures, showing what I've gone through this year. The memories I've lost came back and remind me how enjoyable this year was.

| I guess another month has passed by. This semester just went by so fast....I always wonder why. Could it be the loads of studying/projects or maybe that I'm getting older, I'm realizing how time passes by faster than it should. I feel like i just moved into JST and now my parents came by yesterday to pick up my computer/clothes for the nice needed break. Now I'm on Bry's mactop since I don't have my compy.
I just finished finals today. My last one today was math, and it went alright. No big surprises on it. I ended up getting a B in chem which im really happy about since he said at first I had a C, "a very high C" for that matter
Just a few updates from November - December
-Visited Gina over the weekend before Thanksgiving. Saw Quantum of Solace that weekend at a kick ass theater and had dinner at this nice place, The Twisted Fork.
-Met up with Bry for a bit while I was up at Marquette. Looks like he's having the time of his life.
-Spent Thanksgiving with my family and ended up going to Best Buy for Black Friday w/ my cousin (so cold...)
-Had TGI Friday's with the bro's and got to drive the eclipse before the snow comes down to ruin it.
-Fixed the car stereo system (still not complete) with Justin
-Went running w/ Gina, had lunch w/ her, then breakfast the following morning
-Got my job back at Jimmy John's
-Getting ready for a wedding coming up this weekend. Congrats Brad and Liz!
-Pulled many all nighters for group projects and papers. Not to mention finals week was crawling up behind me.
-Working out destroyed my arms >>
-I'm still planning to get that 42" HDTV. XD
Again, the past month just flew by. I just felt like a real college student for once because I caught myself studying a ridiculous amount. I guess thats how things work out. I'm just glad that I'm finally done with everything (for now).
