"There's nothing here to take for granted, with each breath that we take"

Man, now that I'm back at Tech, I feel like I can update this blog more regularly. It's something about the setting here, makes me want to type, and I really enjoy this blogging deal, even if I haven't been keeping up! I can't believe how fast 2008 went by, and I had my highs and lows, the year seemed to be ending horribly, but things picked up. I have some amazing support in my life, and I'm really happy with how things are turning out for everyone around me. Danny has found this amazing love in his life, and I don't remember seeing him this happy in a long time. I've made new friends, lost old friends, felt some horrible pains, felt some extreme happiness, but overall, 2008 wasn't really a spectacular year for me. Yeah, I graduated high school, got into a school that I love right now, and feel happy now, but the year had it's struggles, and I was really depressed for a large chunk of it.

I haven't really come up with any big resolutions for the new year, but I have a few goals in mind. I plan on maintaining a good GPA at Georgia Tech, and improving my work ethic. I also plan on trying to be more friendly, and kind towards others (even though I already am for the most part). I plan on being more tolerant of my family, who seems to only frustrate me lately, and I plan on limiting my choice of curse words, they seem to slip out a bit too often. I also plan on trying to find true happiness in my life, find happiness within myself, as I seem to rely on others for it fairly often. I plan on not letting other people influence me so much on how to live my life. I also plan on updating this more often like I planned, it's keeps me more aware of what's going on in my life, and what I need to change, etc.

I look forward to 2009, so far it has started off well, and I hope it stays that way! :) Now, since I haven't done this in a while, here's some music:





My real estate
My life is dull
And dried up like the sound
A voice makes when the heart grows cold
And its going that way

I think i'll move out of state
Somewhere far from Seattle city lights
They burn my eyes
California sounds nice but California's a lie
Maybe I'm out of luck or maybe I'm just blind
Oh, this time

Rain on my hopes
Rain on my soul
Rain on everything that i know
It feels so ludicrous
The pursuit of this dream
We thought we'd be along ago

My life is like a rolling river
So muddy and absurd
And although i might be mistaken
I know that i'll be heard
And i find the second i try to pull away
I'm thrown back in line
Not this time

Rain on my hopes
Rain on my soul
Rain on everything that i know
It feels so ludicrous
The pursuit of this dream
We thought we'd be along ago

Rain on my hopes
Rain on my soul
Rain on everything that i know
It feels so ludicrous
The pursuit of this dream
We thought we'd be along ago

And we are looking for the same thing. the same thing
Seattle is calling me back home, back home

Rain on my hopes
Rain on my soul
Rain on everything that i know
It feels so ludicrous
The pursuit of this dream
We thought we'd be along ago

Rain on my hopes
Rain on my soul
Rain on everything that i know
It feels so ludicrous
The pursuit of this dream
We thought we'd be along ago

Whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa
