^ That is one beautiful picture. :)
Happy Canada Day to you, even though I'm not Canadian. Lol.

Lol, thank you, thank you. :)
What have you been up to lately dear ol' pal?

Awe, I am terribly sorry to hear that. :/ I hope things get better. <3

I can understand where you are coming from though because my mom just told me a week ago that she's moving to Arizona because she can't stand living with the memories of her and my dad anymore. And get this, she might be leaving as soon as FRIDAY. I really don't know how I'm going to deal with it. I really don't. My mom used to travel a lot for work and such and she wouldn't be gone longer than two weeks but I'd still be a wreck, so how am I supposed to go months/weeks without seeing her at a time? And she's all "I'll call you every day and come see you often." But it still won't be the same. I'll have to go through my junior/senior year without her here every day when I get home. Thinking about it really makes me want to cry. Actually, I have, every time it's brought up.

And, to top it all off, I've had swimmer's ear/ear infection for two fucking weeks now. Yeah, I feel pretty shitty. But Tylenol is keeping it cool at the moment.

Do tell me, why have you been upset, dear?

my fave holiday <3

Thanks. <3
Well, she's told me she'll come see me often, so I can only hope and believe.

Oh Amanda, I am so sorry. :| I know that this probably doesn't help, but I've lost many friends a long the way and even my best friend for ten years, so I know what it feels like and it's a terrible feeling. But life goes on, you know? Maybe this move will give you a fresh start with new opportunities. And things that are meant to stay the same will. I believe everything happens for a reason, and maybe you moving and my mom moving is for the best. That's what I hope, anyway. And as far as the boy situation, I know how you feel. I'm scared that next year we might not have any connection at all anymore and I'll start to believe I've built all of this up in my head, and it's his senior year too. But will you still be able to talk to him on MSN or any of that? And what about Facebook? I do hope things get better for you, dear. I've told you before I'm here if you ever need to talk. I know Xanga is kind of a public place, but if you ever really need to talk you can email me at gabilliam@gmail.com. I'll be working out my problems for the next two months (at least) too, so I'll be right there with you.

I know how you feel, and part of me tells myself that my mom really needs this and that if she stays here much longer, she won't be herself anymore. And this will give me a chance to live with my dad again and be like we used to be. I've just always been close to both of my parents and I've relied on them so much, especially my mom and I'm just have to get used to the fact that if I need her, I'll have to pick up the phone and not just go into the other room.

I do hope you get things back on the right track with everyone you need to though. I'm sure everyone will miss you just as much as you'll miss them.

Thanks. I might just take you up on that one day. :)

Oh, I know. I doubt 99.9% of the things that I do daily, so yeah.

I AM SO PISSED OFF AT MYSELF.
I lost my nikon camera cord and my SD card just broke so I have absolutely no way to get my pictures off of my camera. dammit.

I've searched EVERYWHERE. Like seriously. I just need to cough up some money and buy another SD card. Ughhh. I hate spending my own money. I'm such a cheap skate.
