Happy New Years!
What is your New Years resolution?
What makes a good resolution? Something that you can actually stick with all year, no problem? Or something that will really test your inner strength?
I’m not sure what would make a good resolution for me…maybe I’ll swear off boyfriends for 365 days. Or chocolate, wait: who am I kidding? I couldn’t make it 3 days without chocolate, let alone three HUNDRED and sixty five days haha. Hmmm, maybe I’ll never sleep in past 9 AM. Or never complain when mom gives me chores…(that wont happen either :/ haha) There’s nothing major in my life that needs to be changed right now so it looks like I’m pretty golden as far as resolutions go. How about this:
I will play whatever games the kids I baby sit for want to play with as much gusto as I can manage.
Alright that’s a good one :) I’m all good now. Don’t forget to make yours!!

sometimes i wonder about this guy......
^so this is matt. matt thinks that the caveman style has come back in style. i promptly informed him that, no, it has not.
he then proceeded to shave off his caveman beard:
^so here in exhibit B, we see that matt thinks that the "goatee fad" has come back in style... again, i promptly informed him that, NO, it has not.
so then, AGAIN, he proceeded to shave:

^here we have exhibit C in which matt looks like a normal person again. yay matt! lets hope he doesnt think of any more outrageous styles to test out in the near future...

what am i gonna do???
What am I going to do with my life??
That is like the universal question and I am not having an easy time coming up with options.
I mean what are my strengths?
-I love working with little kids and am very good at interacting with them
-I'm good at math, reading, writing, spelling, typing...
-I'm good at writing persuasive papers
-I am good at arguing my case and winning
-I like being in charge and I can think on my feet
I am good at a lot of stuff but I know that I should probably pick one general area of interests and direct all of my focus at it. The problem is: what would I want to be doing for x number of years in my life that would make me happy and successful? I just have no clue. Like i am to the point where I am losing sleep over this whole thing. It's stressful. Ugh. haha. Like how do you figure that kind of thing out?? I am the type of person who wants to make a plan and stick to it. In order to make this plan, though, I am gonna need to figure out what to center the plan around... HELP!! yes this means you mom. i need more than your suggestions in the car the other day! I hate not knowing what I'll be doing 2,3,4 years from now.

New Fave Song!
By Marie Digby
the thing about love
is i never saw it coming
it kind of crept up
and took me by surprise
and now there's a voice inside my heart
its got me wondering
is it true..? I wanna hear it one more time
move in a little closer
take it to a whisper
just a little louder...
Say it Again for me
cause i love the way it feels
when you are telling me that i'm
the only one who blows your mind
say it again for me
it's like the whole world stops to listen
when you tell me you're in love...
say it again
the thing about you is you know just how to get me
you talk about us
like there's no end in sight
the thing about me
is that i really wanna let you
open that door and walk into my life
move in a little closer
take it to a whisper
just a little louder..
Say it Again for me
cause i love the way it feels
when you are telling me that i'm
the only one who blows your mind
say it again for me
it's like the whole world stops to listen
when you tell me you're in love..
and it feels like
it's the first time
that anybody's ever brought
the sun without the rain
never in my whole life
have i heard words
as beautiful as when you say my name.
say it again for me
cause i love the way it feels
when you are telling me that i'm
that only one who blows your mind
say it again for me

This is some of the damage done by the spaghetti sauce. haha. Try Geeross much!!!
Walking away
Glancing back
Somber faces
Eyes like glass
Glancing back
A glint
A tear
Rolling down a cheek
Frozen in time
No words to speak
Emotions mixed
Confusion rings
Glancing back
Tender lips
A fake smile
Take no comfort
A long while
Till this will pass
Glancing back
Pained expressions
Joy lacks
Glancing back
The eyes
That used to smile
Say goodbye
Silence.
-james
When I'm alone
I feel cold
Like I'm struggling to breathe
All by myself
Like a story
With no happy ending
I feel weak
At the knees
Like I'm falling towards the ground
It's like I'm lost
In a maze
And I can't find my way out
I'm tired, scared and reckless
And I don't know what to do
I'm fighting with myself
Should I keep running after you
I felt safe
In your arms
Now I'm not sure where to go
I could go right
I could go left
But right now I'm too confused
You said for sure
That you would stay
But now you've gone away
And here I sit
Wondering
What am I supposed to do
I'm lonely, sad and restless
And I don't know what to do
I'm fighting with myself
Should I keep running after you
-james
How Do You Know?
How do you know?
You know when merely the thought of him brings you joy.
When even the smallest glimpse of him quickens your heartbeat.
When he takes your breath away with a single smile.
When he holds you in his arms and all of your words are lost.
When you can look into each others eyes and say I love you without ever parting your lips.
You know when you no longer ask yourself, "Is this it?"
-james
The hair that I run my fingers through
The eyes that stare into mine
The ears that listen to all I have to say
The lips that kiss mine
The arms that hold me tight
The fingers that intertwine with mine
The legs with which he stands tall
The feet that support him
From head to toe
He is perfect
-james
Is it love
You ask yourself
How do you know
How should it feel
I think love
Should feel breathless
Amazing and complete
What is love
We always wonder
Will I know
Will I be sure
I'm sure love
Will feel certain
And you'll never have a doubt
I think of it as wonderful
Like in a splendid dream
Never pressured, always patient
As in fairytales it seems
So when you ask if it is love or not
Only ask yourself
Because to each and every person
A different answers found
-james
Together they share,
Unknown to others,
A smile, a touch, a private stare.
Lost are they,
In a world all their own,
Treasuring silence,
Yet a million words to say.
Words linger unsaid,
And float through their minds,
Fingers intertwine,
Thoughts of all else dead.
Their smiles they show,
Their feelings they express,
Their words are left silent,
Because in their hearts they know.
-james
Hidden is she,
The one you never see.
Empty and lonely,
Hidden deep beneath the sea.
Sea of faces,
Sea of tears,
Sea of places,
Sea of fears.
She hides herself from us you see,
Because she never learned to be.
Learned to be free,
And spread her wings,
Open herself,
For us to see.
She never wanted us to know,
The depth she truly held.
She never wanted us too near,
For fear of love itself.
She shut us out and kept her in,
So that we'd never know,
That she was scared of what we'd think,
When she let her true self show.
-james
Walking all alone,
Shadows flicker,
Footsteps groan,
He approaches,
Secret smiles exchanged,
Lost feelings renewed,
Laughter, Joy and Love.
First, Laughter
Ringing clear and true.
Next Joy,
Filling the hearts of many.
Then Love,
Lingering like a morning fog,
Dampening some,
While enlightening others.
Laughter, Joy and Love.
-james
