getting ready to visit

the folks again on Monday..

I have a new suitcase.. the plane people were not so kind with my poor luggage while K was out of town… so I have a new Samsonite. I suppose sometime today I should start gathering up what I need to pack.. I have a bunch of paperwork, cds and the sort that I cannot forget..I’m usally well packed 2 days before I go.. but with K being gone, I couldn’t really.

This trip has some events planned.. I have the Tori show, seeing Lisa and Autumn, visiting with Steph on the Saturday.. MUST bring camera this time.. so I can get pictures of us together.. we don’t have any since University.. must also remember to bring the photoalbum of GOOD wedding photos*L* I need to get Karen, Bryan, Scott, Michelle, Todd in there somewhere.. of course I’ll see Nikki. Possibly Sarah too. I’d like to visit my Aunt and Uncle.. I’ll make a point of doing that Sunday. There is a Catie Curtis concert on the 17th, that I’m excited to be going to.. I really love seeing Catie, I hope to get her newest album while I’m there.. cross my toes and hope to have it signed afterwards as well. Of course lots of horse time, and making sure Nessa is doing well.. She’s not been taking lessons, which is part of the agreement.. so I need to see what is up with that.. I really like this girl, and want to see it work out.. but I cannot take the risk of her not learning with a trainer. She needs to take lessons for her own safety.. as well as my peace of mind.-sighs-

new gallery up on miaouphoto

I’ve put up the first of several “people” galleries. There should be about 4 in total.. at least of the images I have. The session I did of Jello, will be next.. I’m currently editing those. The gallery that was just put up, was easiest.. because I had already done those before.. Just needed to be resized and bordered*L*

“Wish I Had Known Sooner”

I know many people have seen things like these around the internet, in their email(which is where this came from). It’s cute.. and a lot of them.. I do wish I had known sooner when I was going through school.*L*

1. Don’t drink grape juice while wearing a white shirt and driving to school.

2. Don’t let your life wait for other people.

3. Dropping a cellular phone into a bathtub of water kinda kills the phone.

4. Your mother will find out if you dye your hair purple.

5. You haven’t really lived until you’ve gotten a 48 on an Advanced Placement U.S. History test.

6. Don’t ever fall in love with someone who is more than one thousand miles away from you. It usually doesn’t work.

7. Milk crates make boring pets.

8. If it hurts, DON’T DO IT AGAIN!

9. That which does not kill you will ultimately make you stronger.

10. Speaking in public gets easier with practice.

11. Don’t sprint around a pool if you’re trying to impersonate Jim from Huck Finn.

12. Ten years from now most of what we freak out about won’t make any difference.

13. All that’s gold doesn’t glisten.

14. Zits always pop up when you really can’t afford for them to pop up.

15. Always stay after class because that’s when connections are made.
