A Long Time Friend.

When you are in high school and grade school you always think that the friends that you grow up with, are going to be the friends that you have forever. I can't tell you how many times I have told some one "we are going to be friends forever and ever". Well now I know that is not the truth.

There are some friends that I grew up with that I have stayed friends with, but some of them I have either not seen in a long time or just not friends with now. Sometimes,it is just hard to stay up with your friends that you have after you get out of high school because everybody goes in a million different directions. Think about it,after high school you either go off to college or move out on your own so there is a lot of things you do after high school, that is the reasons why for me, it is so hard to stay in contact with my old friends.

For me I will get to see one of my old high school friends tomorrow and I am really excited about it. I have not seen my friend in a very long time and it is going to be a very good day to see her. We are meeting at a restaurant to grab a bit to eat and that will be our time to talk. Like I said, I have not seen her in forever,so when I see her it will be a bitter sweet meeting. I am sure we will talk about our old school days and the things we use to do back then.

I love seeing my old friends and just getting caught up on old memories and new ones. I think for me the only part of the reunion that I hate is the part when we have to say good bye again. I hope that I will see her again but you never know. I believe that this time I am going to fix my mistake and actually keep with her so that way we don't have to worry about not seeing each other again. Friends are great and wonderful to have. I know I am very blessed to have everyone in my life that I have, this time I am blessed to add one more to my very blessed list. If I can give people one little piece of advice it's keep up with your friends no matter how busy you get.

A Long And Endless Journey.

Have you ever traveled somewhere,and thought to your self that it takes so much longer to go to that destination than it does come back. It's not that I mind going on long trips because it can be quite fun sometimes,but other times I just feel like it takes so much longer going to where I am going than it does coming back.

Today,me and a couple of friends and my boyfriend went on a little adventure. We were tired of the same old place so we decided to just go somewhere a little different this time. Now it's not that we got lost or anything like that,no nothing like that it is just every five seconds that I turned around we were stopping somewhere. We were either stopping to eat,or use the restroom,or stretch every ones legs, or even to change drivers when one of us would get tired of driving,just little things like that.

Maby that is one of the reasons why it took us so long to get to where we were going. That and the fact that the place that we were headed to actually was far from where we lived. I didn't have anything planned for today so it's not like I needed to be home for anything special but I think it was just the fact that all of us were in a car together for so long.

When we were coming back from our little adventure it didn't seem like it took that long to get home. Maby it was because it was just not a lot of traffic or because we were all so tired but it seemed like we were home in just a short couple of minutes when it had actually been hours.

Going on road trips are so fun to do and I think a must do for everyone at least once or twice in their life's. I should be use to the long road trips,I mean when I go back to the states I am going to have a long trip back but now I should be ready for it. I think everyone should go on a road trip and just have fun with your family or friends,no matter how long of a trip it is or how crazy your friends are. The most important thing is to have fun and enjoy the ride.

The Hospital Worries.

Today has been kind of a crazy day as I knew it would be. See today, I had to go to the hospital with my family because my grandfather was in there. This time it was not to bad, but still very difficult for me to handle.

Today he had a pacemaker put in to help his heart. See he has had a rough time with in the last few mounts with everything and they said that this would help him by having one. Still, when I was in there waiting for him with my family to get done with surgery, it still made me worried.

I don't very good when it comes to seeing people sick and hurt. There is something inside of me that just can't handle it. Today was no exception. Even know it was a rather very simple operation it was still very hard for him to recover. He is only going to be in there over night but still, having to recover from something like that is just scary.

When I was in the waiting room I couldn't help but to think of everything that could be going on inside that operating room. I didn't want to think that anything bad was going on but you never know. I tried to stay positive anyway I could. Sometimes it is all you can do to think about what is going on when you are waiting for someone to get out of surgery.

The only reason that I did not go insane today is because I had my family around me and I knew he was in good hands,which made it easier on us. I honestly think that the worst part of going into the hospital or even a doctors office,is when you have to wait. Because think about it,when you are waiting to see someone who is at the hospital or at the doctors than you have all that time to just sit and think about what is happing and to me that is the worst feeling in the world.

Well maby I am just being stupid I mean I just called him and he was fine but it still scares me that he is in there. Is that stupid of me to have this fear?I mean is that normal or does everyone have this fear? Anyways I am just going to stay positive and think good thoughts, and when he comes home tomorrow I will hug him and all my worries will go away.

The Learning Mind.

When I was in grade school and middle school and yes even high school the things that I got taught never really stuck with me. Don't get me wrong , I like school I really did. It was a chance for me to learn something and get an education and it was a chance for me to learn some responsibilities for myself but when it came to my school work or the things that they taught me I always thought differently about them.

I paid attention and yes I was on the "A" honor roll for most of my schooling years,but I just never understood why they tough us some of the things that they did in school. Everybody had there favorite classes and their least favorite classes. For me my favorite class was either between drama which I was in for 9 years, or English because I love to write and read. My least favorite class was biology CP. I hated that class with a passion. I never though that things that I learned in that class and also things that I learned in algebra would come in handy.

Come on,what would I need algebra for or biology for that matter. Now that I have graduated I have come to realize that the things that they teach you in your schooling in your younger years may not be so important to you then, but when you grow up you will actually use them. Ok,so I don't know how I am using biology, but with math I use that everyday.Actually that is a subject that you should pay close attention to when at school it is very important.

Now that I go to college I have learned my lesson. Now, I have learned to pay close attention and to keep an open mind and not look down on the things that they are teaching me because you never know when you will use them. It could be when you least expect it or it could not be at all you never know. So tell me, what were your least favorite subjects in school and what were your favorite? Also,if you go to school now what are they?
