Gratitude

It's that thanksgiving time of year again and what a great weekend!
First what I'm thankful for...
Family... of course... but in particular Jacob and Dad who are such great people... Im grateful for my dads guidance and my brothers example.
Blossom... she is just a cat but she sure does bring me a lot of joy.
New Niece... I don't know her name yet but I'm excited for Shanel and Quientin.
Lovely weddings... its so nice to see new couples so happy.
Wonderful Friends... they understand and are so supportive.

I am also grateful for the oppurtunity to make decisions for myself, that I am in control of my life, that I can do things that will make me happy. Right now if I can get everything sorted I am not coming back to Hawaii next semester and starting something new. I'm excited for the change and the oppurtunity. I am excited that this will give me more of an oppurtunity to be a influence in my family's life again. I'm just excited to be moving on somewhere...
Hawaii has been an experience... but I was ready to go a long time ago...

Back to blogging...

Awhile ago I denied public access to my blog... I'm not going to get into the reasons, but I feel confident enough right now to partially start sharing my thoughts again.

It's funny even though I put my blog into a coma, I have remained pretty active on the internet, email is still one of the main ways I communicate with friends who are far away, I have a facebook account but it seems to just be a way to keep updated on everyones status, I have a Bebo account as well, and that has been keeping me in mild contact with friends in NZ that I wasn't super close with. But I find that everything else I used to do was such a waste of time, yes I am trying very hard to eliminate the procrastinator in me. It's working well, and it's really helping me as a student... figures I have less then 6 months left as a student and I'm finally getting the hang of it.

So I have to get back to my school work... I don't know how often I will be posting again... But I like the idea of putting the ideas I think will benefit others down. oh thats a great idea! ha I know what this new blog is now!
