wow... i love waterfront property...

when house hunting, it's important to keep an open mind. think of all the things that you could potentially do if this was your space. i have recently started doing this and really have enjoyed house hunting more than ever due to it. pretend the kitchen is your kitchen... see what happens. could you really live with all the stairs in the house? do you like your neighbors? learning to except that no house is going to be perfect was really hard for me. also excepting that buying a new house didn't always mean getting a better house was hard too, but i digress.

as many of you know i went on a trip to the east coast in which i finally got to spend some time with new york as a city. i loved it. people all around you, places to see, food to eat non-stop, and places to shop. feeling the freedom of anonymity is an interesting freedom. no one ever has to know who you are, and yet, you could make it so that everyone does. to me, the city is like i big bag of trail mix... if you reach inside you never know quite what you're going to get until you take your hand out. i also spent some time with the family in Massachusetts and had a blast with the cousins as usual. glad to see everyone out there!

school has started, which, to me, is just more of the same. getting up at the butt crack of dawn is, trust me, great! especially when you're a teen that stays up all night. probably will end up with the insomnia i always seem to get by the middle of debate season. oh well, can't be helped. oh and i'm taking up a sport at some point this year (against my will). more on that later.
