Christmas :)

Christmas would probably be my favorite time of year. I love getting together with my family and opening presents. Every year, I go to my grandma's house and stay until Christmas morning. Then, we all wake up real early, usually around 5 in the morning! We go to my aunts house and me and one of my other aunts pass out everyone's gifts. When they are all passed out, we see who can open all of their gifts the fastest. It's a lot of fun. When we all finish, we eat breakfast then go to sleep while my grandma cooks lunch. :) Then we go back to my grandma's house and just hang out with the family. Christmas is usually a great time for me and my whole family to get together. And it should be now since I don't get to see them anymore.

But, it doesn't feel like Christmas to me. I don't really know why. I think it's because I'm not around my dad anymore since he's getting married. We don't talk hardly at all anymore. And I miss that. We used to be so close and Christmas used to be something very special for us. I guess things can't always stay the same. I miss my dad. And I'm going to miss him on Christmas. Along with the rest of my family that I won't get to see. I hope they have a wonderful Christmas.

Yesterday's Game...

So I went to the guys' game last night and from now on, they better start appreciating me more! It was so cold. I pretty much froze my butt off. I went with Kassandra and her step-padre, Mr. Joe Trevinyo. I'm not too happy with him at the moment because him and Hector Alexanda Trevinyo killed a poor, little, innocent sheep. So, when I got into the car I said, "Mr. Joe, I'm not very happy with you right about now." And he said, "Why? I didn't do anything to you!" Then, I told him why and we started arguing. After we were finished, he gave me and Kassandra some candy, and we were fine. :) But back to the game. IT WAS COLD! I didn't think it was going to be that cold but when we got there, boy did I find out I was wrong. Me and Kassandra stole her Aunt Connie's blanket and we wrapped all up in it. But, guess what!! It was still cold. Thankfully the guys won 24-0. But like I said, I better be more appreciated for that. :)

Halloween Controversy..

I think they are making too big of a deal out of it. If it wasn't for that one person wearing a costume he probably knows he shouldn't have wore, then everyone would still get to wear their costumes. The school should just ban Walter from wearing a costume, since he was the one to ruin it for everyone else. That really isn't fair that he did that but got everyone else punished because of his dumb choices.

If I Was Invisible...

Do you ever wish you could be invisible? Well, I do. At times, when people are talking about me, or if someone embarrasses me, I wish that no one could see me. When I get embarrassed, my face turns red and people usually stare more. That, sometimes, makes it worse. No one likes when they get talked about, but everyone wants to here what others are saying about them. I think being invisible would be an advantage because you could find out so much by spying on a person to see what they say about you and/or others. But, with advantages, comes disadvantages. A disadvantage about being invisible is that no one would see you and you couldn't talk to anyone. But, I like being visible just fine. :) Of course, every now and then it would be great to be unseen, just not for too long.

Memories..

One of my favorite memories was at the end of my 8th grade year. We had our 8th grade graduation and I remember how everyone was so excited to get into high school. Everyone was dressed so nice and their parents were too. There were hundreds of pictures being taken and a lot of signing people's yearbooks. When we got to the auditorium, everyone got in their seats and waited for it to begin. The principal started off by saying what a good year it had been and how he was proud of our goup of students. He told us he would never forget us or the memories we had given him his first year as principal. After they called our names to get our "diplomas," they played a video some parents had made. I remember feeling sad as the video played with the song "Friends Forever" because of the words in it. I guess several other people felt sad too because as I looked around I began to notice them tear up. As the video went on, and the song kept playing, I started to listen to the lyrics more and more. I think after everyone started paying attention to the lyrics, it made us all think. What's going to happen after we graduate? Will we still be friends? Who's going to be doing what? And many more. That song really makes you think about life after graduation. Well, it made me think about it anyways. It makes me sad to think that in just 3 years, we'll all be going our different ways and doing different things. After being friends with everyone and getting so close to each other, its going to be hard having to leave them.

"And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
And if you got something that you need to say
You better say it right now cause you don't have another day
Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound
And I keep thinking of the night in June
I Didn't know much of love, but it came too soon
And There was me and you, and then it got real blue
Stay at home talkin' on the telephone and
We would get so excited, we'd get so scared
Laughing at our selves thinking life's not fair
And this is how it feels

As we go on, we remember
All the times we had together
And as our lives change, from whatever
We will still be, friends forever

So if we get the big jobs and we make the big money
When we look back now, will that joke still be funny?
Will we still remember everything we learned in school?
Still be trying to break every single rule
Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man?
Can Heather find a job that won't interfere with her tan?
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
And this is how it feels

La, la, la, la; yeah, yeah, yeah
La, la, la, la, we will still be friends forever

Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there? Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end
And suddenly it's like we're women and men
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us round?
Will these memories fade when I leave this town
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly

La, la, la, la; yeah, yeah, yeah
La, la, la, la, we will still be friends forever
