Mars Anyone?

The sky was completely clear tonight. It was chilly outside, but it was actually a nice crisp feeling. Something i wouldn't usually like. Im more into the warmth of the sun or the feeling of warm sand on my skin. But tonight, oh tonight. The Moon was so bright, i thought about getting my sunglasses just so i could get a better look. To the right of the bright moon, there was a faintly light red object... Mars! Mars was out strutting it's stuff tonight. It looked amazing. I tired to take a picture, but lets face it, a picture with a regular camera was not going to turn into an impressive photo. Actually, it ended up looking like some type of firework... Lame.

Mom, Holl and I had church today. It was an amazing service. Christmas services have a special place in my heart... They seem to come from the heart a little more than usual. Which i mean, isn't always right, but for the most part, acurate. I saw a lot of friends i haven't seen in ages at that service. I'll be seeing most of them again tomorrow, which really makes me happy. Being here makes me feel like im living my old life again, but in an older body with more knowledge. hahaaa.... But its great to be here. I mean, it feels normal. It feels comfortable. It feels... like i belong. Today was a good day.

<3 Merry Christmas... one more sleep!

On Thursday night, i found myself walking the halls of my high school... something i hadn't experienced since may of 04. Two years of memories swamped my mind as i strolled down the long senior hallway. As amazing as that little moment was, it had to end... Now, the students who were in 8th grade when i was graduating high school are now the 08 Seniors who were putting on the Coppell Senior Talent Show. (the whole reason i was back at the school)
Anyway, the show was about 2 and a half hours long... which was ridiculous.. But i didn't mind at all. The MC's were hilarious and they had their own fantastic one liners that i really should have written down. Its a shame i didn't. There were a few very emotional dances, some great songs were sung, ...a belly dancer. It was a really good show! I've been making friends with all of my sisters drama friends. They are interesting folk. Thats for sure... but they are very sweet. They are a solid group of kids who greatly care for each other. One of the girls in their group just lost her mom to cancer. The same type of cancer that my mother's side of the family struggles with.. This girl, who shall remain nameless, dedicated an interpretive dance to her mom at the show. Almost every woman in the audience was in tears. Anyway, these are the kids i hung out wit at the show... so i was kinda sitting in the 'cool kid' section.
In 03, the beginning of my senior year, we (the seniors of 04) had our talent show. It was The 04 Sho' Show. I have it on DVD. Aka... Awesome. There has been reference to our show in the last 3 talent shows. I was the sound tech for our show.. Nerd. But i rocked it.

The holidays are an exhausting time. Really, aren't they supposed to be relaxing and full of food and family and happiness on the couch? I am quite wrong. I've done nothing but run all around to every mall in the greater dallas area... drive threw heavy traffic to get to the church to work.. or travel across the country. As much as i love it, all of the craziness of the holidays, im tired now. As far as i know, i dont have to step foot into another mall until the new year
Tomorrow, I am at the church working tech most of the morning.. hopefully, im going to see an afternoon movie with a friend from the 'good ol' days'... then in the evening, my mom and i are baby sitting my cousins new baby daughter, Jena.

<3 lots of love from the south.
me.
