"Dreams don't have expiration dates."

What a great quote. To me, this means that dreams can last forever. Because of that, you should not give up on them and you have your whole life to reach your dreams. I tend to just forget about certain dreams I have but then I realize that it will always take a long time to accomplish it. My main priorities always come before dreams so then I often forget what I want to do with my life. At the moment, I really just want to travel. But in order to be able to do that I have to go to college, get a job and make enough money to go somewhere.

Seasonal Changes

I love fall. It's like a preview for winter. I will always prefer the cold to the heat. The fashion for cold weather always looks better. I love buying new jackets and sweaters. It's almost time for me to start wearing my favorite black boots. And believe it or not, I leave my window open at night even if it's 40 degrees. I just pile on the blankets and go under and don't come out until the morning. Then I'll make some hot chocolate or delicious coffee to wake me up.

Woooo, Free Write.

Oh my goodness, it's Friday!! I'm so happy this week is almost over. I went to visit Texas Tech last week and missed a day of school. My make up work was a real pain in the neck and I stressed out this whole week. I finished everything yesterday and I automatically feel better. This weekend I am definitely going to have fun. I think Melissa, Morgan, Mallory and I are going to hang out tonight!! Perhaps we will go to On the Border...or some other cool place. We always have random adventures. Sounds like a time for glow sticks!!!

On the road again...

I was born to travel. And to add to that I am a history buff to the extreme...more specifically European History. I would absolutely love to travel throughout Europe. If it was all-expenses paid, I would bring my three best friends: Mallory, Melissa, and Morgan. We would start in Ireland and make our way west. By the time our trip was done we would have spent time in every European country. We would go shopping, eat exotic foods, visit museums, take tours of castles, and climb mountains!! As you can see I have thought about this a lot. I'm pretty sure that when all our traveling is done, a year will have gone by.

Laws??

I am a highly opinionated person...which you may soon realize. There should be a law against Reality TV shows. They are all a big joke and a way for people to point out the "tards" in society. Yes, there are some truly talented and genuine people in the world, but how many dance, model, match-making, and "real world" shows do we really need? Do we really need to know what children put in their mouths? (Yes, there is a show about that.)To me, it seems more like the producers pick the most screwed up people and put them all together so they can fight, make fools of themselves, or in all create drama. I am one who would fight for peoples' rights, but the media is going way overboard with these shows and I just don't like it.

Merci beaucoup.

Mom,
I hope you realize how much you really mean to me. When I tell you that I love you, it's not just because you let me do things or give me money. It comes straight from my heart. I appreciate how much you support me and the time you give up for me. It may sound corny, but you really do inspire me. You have so much strength within you and I really don't know how you do it. Life is tough for the both of us and yet you still pull through with a smile on your face. I hope I can learn to be that way. Through the years I've noticed your relationship with your own mother and I hope it can be that way with us. Just understand that this is a crazy stage in my life and yours too. I don't have much more time to spend with you because I'll be off to college next fall. In this last year that I call Frisco home (because hopefully I can get into RIT) I hope that we will enjoy each other and be closer as mother and daughter. Thanks for being an inspiration and a wonderful mother.

Love,
Elizabeth

I'm a Time Bandit!!!

If I could go back in time and pick a historical event to cover I would go to Woodstock, New York in 1969. There are so many bands that I would have loved to see! Just like about every other teenager, music is my LIFE! I am a huge fan of classic rock from the 60's all the way to the 80's. My uncle told me a lot of interesting stories from his "hippie days" and one of them was his adventure to Woodstock. I would just want to "do my own thing."
