The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that, the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I --
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

After a while you learn the stable difference between holding a hand and changing a soul.
And you learn that love doesn't mean leaning and [that] company doesn't mean security,
And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts and [that] present aren't promises,
And you begin to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes open with the grace of an adult, not the greaf of a child,
And you learn to build your roads on today because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans.
After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much,
So plant your own garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you really can endure....
That you really are strong,
And you really do have worth.

Yesterday we went to buy the things that we need for our trip. Toothpaste, lotion, etc.... Well at least my mom bought all of that stuff.
You wanna know what I bought? I bought a portable CD player and a carrying case for the player and the CD's. I can't live without music!!! I am listeniing right now as I type!!!
We also went to band rehearsal. It was ok. My mom and I are doing our last "gig" this saturday. Well it's not over for good. Just until we come back from Mexico. OMG!!!!!! I'm going to miss playing my keyboard and singing, and, and, and, and....................................................and............................... what will I do? At least I have my CD's to fall back upon when I need to sing. But what if I don't want to sing that stuff? MAN!!! I need my music!!!!! Oh well.
I'll figure something out. I will.......soon.
I guess that's it for now. So goodbye. =)
