Hmmm...

I haven't written on this in more than a month...

I suppose it's because of...well, many things...

Marching band, laziness, school, work, reading...

I shall first tell you about Marching Band...It was INCREDIBLE! We didn't get first at Red Rocks, we didn't get first at Band of America, and we didn't make it into finals...

But, we didn't need to. I was truly so proud of my marching band. It breaks my heart to say goodbye to this part of my life, but it has been an absolutely beautiful journey.

I have no regrets, and I must confess that I was scared that this year was not going to end well. Not that it was going to end bad...but because I am a selfish creature I was scared that it wasn't going to end the way I wanted it to.

The Lord came through though, like he always does. He took all my frets and worries and silly heartedness and threw it out the window.

It was fantastic!

Well, I'm too tired and lazy to write anymore right now. Have a happy Thanksgiving!

Sincerely,

School...

School.

School and I have a somewhat interesting relationship.

In all honesty though, I am excited for school to start. Regardless of how stressful I know it will get and how insane it will drive me, I manage my time better when I'm in school.

I am excited to see all my friends again, to walk down the dingy hallways, eat my PB&J sandwich in the lunch room, have mini panic attacks in math when I don't understand anything the teacher is saying...

Yeah, it's gonna be great...and incredibly difficult...but great.

And, as crazy as this may sound to some...I'm actually excited to learn. I love finding new things, going new places (figuratively) and understanding new ideas. I love it! I mean, of course sometimes I get absolutely aggravated by school, in math mostly because that is by far my worst subject.

I procrastinate.

I stay up to late sometimes.

I forget things.

But, isn't that what life is supposed to be about? Trying, failing, trying again...and then finally succeeding...hopefully.

I don't know, but I either way, it's gonna be great.

Sincerely,
Kaitlin R.

P.S. Don't you just love the smell of new, fresh paper? It's to die for!
