it seems like i always catch things at the tail end.
like with soccer, the two years before i was old enough to play, were the best two years that soccer at our school has ever had. Then the year i played we were pretty good, then the next year we were ok, and this year is gonna be interesting.
and with drama, the couple of years before i started, seemed to have the greatest people, the best energy and memories. and then when i can start, we have the people left over from the good plays and a director that we know isn't coming back and happens to be exhausted and frustrated with the lack of talent.
and with basketball, the girls team won sectionals three years in a row. were set to do ok the next year. then the Hudsons left, and the seniors graduated, now we're left with a bunch of inexperienced short girls that are lacking on the talent side as well.
its seems like everything i get involved in has just hit its peek.
But anyways, i can have fun while I'm at it right?

soccer,dogs, and haiti...o my!
soccer started yesterday, and i wasn't particularly excited about it. i don't even really know why. all the reasons i would not want to play don't really work for me cause i jsut don't care. idk maybe its cause it means school is starting soon. ugh.
another wierd thing. normally, i can't wait to see the people in school, and dread the thought of the actual school work. this year, the thought of having to relearn my painfully acquired( yet pathetically underdeveloped) people skills is like contemplating the thought of a colonoscopy. i REAlly don't want to do it. But i'm actaully looking forward to the learning and stuff. i mean homwork always sucks, but i'm actually not worried. idk, its wierd.
we got a new dog a couple weeks ago, his name is ozzie and he is and australian cattle dog. (pictures coming as soon as i figure out how to put them on) he is absolutely adorable accept for one thing, he pees in the house. my room in particular and its starting to get really, really annoying. i do like having a dog again though. Its nice to have somthing to play with and pet when you're sad.
And i FINALLY got my hati support letters done. that is deffinatly the worst part of the whole process. i don't know why, but i HATE asking people for money even for somthing like this. it just realy bothers me. but unfortunatly, without support i can't really go can i?
i'm gonna go to bed now cause i'm exhausted.

cause if so i'm SOL
"is it possible for the seeking mind to attain peace?"

A Dream Within A Dream
Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow--
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.
I stand amid the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand--
How few! yet how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep,
While I weep--while I weep!
O God! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?
-Edgar Allan Poe

Alone
From childhood's hour I have not been
As others were; I have not seen
As others saw; I could not bring
My passions from a common spring.
From the same source I have not taken
My sorrow; I could not awaken
My heart to joy at the same tone;
And all I loved, I loved alone.
Then- in my childhood, in the dawn
Of a most stormy life- was drawn
From every depth of good and ill
The mystery which binds me still:
From the torrent, or the fountain,
From the red cliff of the mountain,
From the sun that round me rolled
In its autumn tint of gold,
From the lightning in the sky
As it passed me flying by,
From the thunder and the storm,
And the cloud that took the form
(When the rest of Heaven was blue)
Of a demon in my view.
-Edgar Allan Poe
