Christmas Day

Yea tho it's been a while....
naw, i'm just playin. But yeah, it's been a hot min since i've written anything. Later on this week i'm going to write my new year's conclusion and also my goals for the new year and life in general.
Things have been wonderful so far today. I got a new digital camera!!! I'm very excited about that. Now i'm going to be uploading pics and posting videos like crazy...
I also got some jewlry from my brother and dad, and some new clothes from my mom--much needed. And they liked their gifts too, so it was all worth it! Later at 7:20 we're going to see The Great Debaters mvie wit Denzel and Forrest Whitaker...It was sold out when we got to the theater. My mom and I were just shocked at how many white folks came out to see it, but then again wer thought about Oprah, and then iy all made sense (She endorsed this movie).. We were supposed to see the 4:55 show, but
there were only 3 seats left, and 4 of us. Other people were turning away angry; whole families leaving...yeah, so we're leaving at like 6:30 to get good seats.
But anyways, i'm looking forward to the new year. Things have been some what of a strugglw lately with me workin and stuff. I came out with the 3.5 i wanted by the end of this semester, thanks be to God cuz Lord knows I couldn't have done that on my own with all lifes cRaZiNeSs.
Speakin of cRaZy, I have no idea how next semester, or next summer's going to turn out for me. I have, well had plans, but it seems others' plans are overriding mine. So basically the things I want to do, i may not be able to. Like Plan #1: This summer I'm going to work at KAA the first half as a counselor, then got to Salamanca, Spain the second.
Not only do I not have my application for KAA in yet, I have yet to complete it along with finding people to recomend me, and as for Spain...well, my roommate may be getting married exactly 1 week before I would be back, and when I talked to one of the study abroad corrdinators, she said I wasn't able to leave early or make arrangements. Not to mention others who have been newly engaged who will probably be getting married over the summer...
Plan #2: I'm going to Phili on a missions trip during spring break.
Now today my Dad said to leave Spring break open so that we could go to New Orleans to visit my grandpa. I really want to go to N.O. so bad to see him because not only have i not been in almost 2 years now, but I really want to see grandpa because I'm not sure how many years i'll have left with him. ...but then again I've been talkin bout Phili with Ebony since this past summer when it was first brought up, and I love inner city missions and I want to help the kids. I'M TORN
spain?? or my best friend's wedding?
Phili missions?? or N.O. with my grandpa?
and what about KAA? What if something comes up and i can't hold to my committment if they except me as a counselor?
(sigh.)
