Finally tomorrow is Friday, this week seems to have gone so slowly. I wish it was a long weekend, or a week or two off would be amazing right now. I just want time to relax and spend mass amounts of time with my friends because they're amazing. lol. Spring break can't come soon enough =D

Man's Best Friend

I have two dogs, Riley and Yogi, I love them both soo much. But on Thursday, we have to put Yogi to sleep. In 2006 we rescued Yogi from a farm in Tennessee that a friend of my parents bought. Yogi had been abandoned there by his "loving" family. We brought him into our home a few weeks after we got Riley.
We have no idea how old Yogi really is, the vet guessed around eight or nine years old, so now he is probably around eleven. When he was living in Tennessee alone, he lived off lard and other things he found in the trash, so when we got him he was very overweight and had terrible arthritis. Moving is such a hard task for him now, its really sad to watch him struggle.
My family has decided its best for Yogi to be put out of his pain and misery. Its going to be sad to see him go, but its going to be for the best. =[.
What are some stories about your pets?

International

I recently got into contact with a friend from Australia that I haven't talked to in around two years. Being able to hear whats happening with her life back where I used to live makes me feel happy but also miss life there. Do you have old friends from other countries you still talk to?

=/

I really hate drifting apart from people I was once great friends with. But sometimes I guess its for the better. A friend who I was really close with only a month ago is not really avoiding me, but she rarely talks to me anymore and this weekend I was supposed to hang out with her and she ditched me and hung out with someone else. Also when I'm talking to her on msn or something, I'll tell her something and she replys with some bitchy comment that basically translates to her saying "I really don't care". UGHHH . Any advice?

True friend

Everyone has at least one friend. Sometimes friends can really get on your nerves and you just want space from them, and other times (most of the time) they make your day a thousand times better. A lot of the time we are picking on each other, but that’s just what we do, and its always as a joke. When I know I need some advice, to have a great amount of fun or simply a shoulder to cry on, I know I can look to my side and count on my friends, they're always only a phone call away.

Freedom

Finally this weekend I was allowed to leave my house!!!

During the weekend, I met some new people, and made connections with people I never thought I would. One of my good friends that I haven't seen since June of last year also came to my friends house, so I got to see her and catch up which was amazing.

Being grounded for two weeks made me appreciate my freedom and that I really shouldn't abuse the privileges my parents give me.

Poem

My Friend
by Sammy Lane Sharp

We all need someone

To talk to in our life,

A friend to whom we run

In times of stress or strife

A friend who's always there

Throughout the years,

A friend we know will care

And take away our fears.

A friend who's always near,

Waiting for our call,

To wipe away our tears,

And lift us when we fall.

A loving friend indeed,

On whom we can depend

To fulfill our every need

-Thank you, precious friend

Grounded

I really hate being grounded. I spent this friday and saturday night at home for the first time in who knows how long because I'm grounded.

One good thing came out of it though I guess, I had plenty of time to think about a lot of things happening in my life! I apologized to a really good friend that I stopped talking to, and began avoiding in December. Now were are talking again and have been talking for most of today. I'm so happy that I didn't lose my friendship with her over something stupid.
