things are changing...i can feel it

Posted on Mar 30th, 2008 by mariana :  Optimistic Dreamer mariana
so....i did get called back for that counseling position....training starts on saturday,

its weird you know because i feel that im on a different place now. My friends are really into the whole partying and clubbing scene....and im not....it doesnt appeal to me

i want to visit museums, take more pictures with my SLR, visit the pier and watch the sunset; take art classes; go to cafe's....and i cant seem to find people to do this with....i have fewer and fewer things to do with my friends now...its quite sad...

My friend ------ for not being there for me when i was going through some rough times. I guess i just assumed he would be there for me regarless. i broke our seven year friendship off and did not speak to him for a year. We're friends once again, he's been forgiven but it was difficult...to do such a thing

it would have to be christmas eve. That day brings great childhood memories..it reminds me of a time where everything just fell right into place. ignorance indeed is bliss. everyone is nice on that day...and it makes me wonder what we as a society would be able to attain if we acted so nice and proper everyday. this day brings my family and all families around the world together and that is the greatest treasure of all
