2008 is coming to an end. Looking back at it, I think I learn alot about myself and other peoples. Pleasant and unpleasant. Valuable lessons I'll remember. A bitter-sweet roller coaster ride I'd say. Im so looking forward to 2009 and my new year's resolution is to get a girlfriend. Okay kidding.

have a joyful and wonderful year ahead
Happy New Year folks!

Sometimes I wish I could lay down on the grass and watch the day goes by
Sometimes I wish I was occupied with something to do

Sometimes I think having just one best friend is enough
Sometimes a whole group of friends aint that bad

Sometimes its hard to tell what's real and what's pretend
Sometimes I used to think that none of this would matter in the end

Sometimes it hurts to open my eyes cause things seem too real
Sometimes I cover it up with lies so it seems perfect

Sometimes I could find the answer to almost anything
Sometimes I couldnt

Sometimes I just want to dance in the rain
Sometimes I wish it was a bright sunny day

Sometimes I hate every little thing
Sometimes I think life is wonderful

Sometimes I think the world turns too slowly
Sometimes I think its moving too fast and I couldnt catch up

Sometimes I think that you feel the same way as I do
Sometimes I think that you don't care and it was just my imagination

Sometimes in the end end, all that matters is that you are happy

Pretend you could take everything you don’t like about yourself, every experience that pains you and peel it away like dried paint. Now place it in a box, an old shoe box or any box you can find. Seal the box, with duct tape, super glue anything to keep it shut, anything that will lock it away. Wander into the woods, a field, a place no one goes and dig; dig till you disturb the worms and the bugs, dig till you see the water break through the mud. Now throw the box in, cover it up and walk away. Don't look back.

A few years later you return, you’re older, wiser and yet you still have come back here. You promise yourself you wont come back here. Yet you dig, dig back into the earth you cast yourself away in so long ago. The box is there, it’s worn and wet, almost not a box but something living. Open it.

You find yourself back at the beginning with the things you hated most. Yet, now you wonder why you did such a thing. Inside that box are not traits and memories that disgust you, but things you realize meant the most. You scoop them up and hold them close, knowing that they are you as well, that you are what you are today because they existed. And deep inside yourself you feel thankful for all the pain and sadness because you know the smile on your face today is real. (:
