Alright guys, so I just had to come here and say less about whats been going on the past few days, and more about whats been going through my head lately.

Sometimes we dont feel secure enough in ourselves. Feeling like we cant make a difference, we shouldnt worry about how we behave because it wont affect anyone in the long run, or even monitoring the thoughts running through our heads. Throughout my entire walk of faith Ive been taught time and time again that I need to set a good example. Especially lately Ive been feeling irritable and things have been getting to me lately, but i try to keep them inside to get things from escalating, and let me tell you, its NOT easy. I have to constantly watch myself in order to make sure Im doing what I should be doing, sometimes I can achieve that, and others, I crash and burn.

Lately, Ive had several people come to me to ask me advice, or not even asking it, but saying something that I believe I should assist with. And lately through some of this Ive definately realized that all people were not raised on the same values, or in the same way as I am, which makes everything all the bit more difficult. I try to impose the way that I think of situations on people that dont nearly have the same perspectives as me, which turns into some conflict, but through learning how to control myself and teaching myself how to handle these situations I think improvment is imminent.

Some people over the course over the past year have mentioned how they respect me, or even to the point that they look up to me, sort of as a role model. This makes me more self conscious of both my behavior and what I say in front of other people. Several times ive been asked on surveys what the greatest feeling is, and that is definately a hard one, but the feeling of knowing that youve made a difference in someones life to some degree ranks at the top. I love helping people out and making differences in their lives, I just hope that throughout my walk with God I learn how to make more and more positive impacts.


On a less deep side note, we have a soccer game coming up on Friday at 5:30 against the GW, so come out and watch. Ill try to keep game updates for you guys.

Valentines day, not just a cheap card holiday!

Holy cow, is that 3 good weekends in a row?! Well, today continued the tradition! It started with me going to Brittany's house to plan out my"V-day suprise". It ended up working well, ill try to post the basics....

around 11 i met Kaitlyn at her house, gave her the typical chocolates and a rose, then I serenaded her with my spotless performance of Fur Elise...ok, so it wasnt spotless, but im not Bethoven am I?! haha, well, after that, we started our walk offbase towards pepper lunch but we took a slight detour and walked to Mikasa park for "a nice walk", but we got to the end where the waterfall was and there just happened to be a white teddybear with a valentines balloon tied to it, holding a card with sweathearts spelling out "PROM?" on it...haha, luckily enough for me, she said yes, so i could enjoy the rest of my day, not like anything else mattered as much. After this we just hung out...Pepper Lunch, Sticky Pics, Mario Kart, Claw Machines (btw, i got 4 things with one coin!) then we just walked around, Kaitlyns balloon came untied and flew away, we got milkshakes...walked her home, got licked by her dogs...then she went to babysit. Great day...but its not over!

So then, i went to Maries house, Tressa, Leanna, and Brittany were there...so in honor of Valentines day we watched how to lose a guy in 10days. I have to admit, not my favorite, but it was funny. Then Bruce and Carla came over so we played "do you know your neighbor" where I made the top 3. then, Apples to Apples which was mega fun. Then I had to leave but it was great. Oh ya, to add the excitment I changed my algebra grade from an F to an A in one day! haha, well peace you guys, happy valentines day!
