Thought For The Day

Sometimes its better to leave things the way they are if you feel a relationship is not working out. No matter how the other party may feel about the situation. Sometimes you gotta do what's best ffor yourself.


This issue is really not mean to be gone into detail about on blogspot. Just making that point perfectly claear to everyone.

Never Forget

Today is the 10th Anniversary on the teriorist attacks. A day of reflection and rememberance.  Approrriately  the  livejournal writer's block question today asks Where Were You?

I was 16 and a sophomore at Souhegan.    It  was the 10 minute break  between 2nd and 3rd period  I was in the school store line waiting to get a chocolate chip cookie.  An announcemnet came over the loudspeaker from Ted Hall to report to our advisories.    We all gathered in our classrooms and watched the  Twin Towers fall on the TV.  I was in shock.   There was a school wide assembly later that day,  I loved how the whole school came together in a time of crisis.

When  Osama Bin Laden was killed this spring  I couldn't have been more overjoyed that the  families of  9/11 victims  have some sort of closure finally.  They had a special episode of World News Tonight on  earlier about the Memorial that opened near Ground Zero. That will be one of my top sites to visit the next time  I go to the city. :)

 The families of all 9/11 victims are in my prayers always! NEVER FORGET!

And a new door opens

Wednesday afternoon I had a job interview at the Nashua Telegraph for a freelance writing job. They didn't have any positions open at this time because of budget cuts but kept the door open for me in case I had any story ideas to submit something too them




Looks like a very pormising opportunity to expand my theatre reviewing skills and since I hope to move to Nashua by sometime next year it is even BETTER!




WOO HOO!

Thought For The Day What Dreams Are Made OF

Last night I had a dream that I was in a drag version of Cabaret as the Emcee. Adam Lambert and Casey Abrams from American Idol were my ladies in Two Ladies.

I thought it was hysterical... I woke up smiling this morning and laughing to myself.

I am so easily amused. :)

Salute to summer

The unoffical end to summer is this weekend Labor Day. Around this time college kids are headed forth to start their new semesters. I sometimes miss those days but am quite well adjusted to my life outside of the confines of small town Henniker NH.



I have been loving my job at the YMCA uncoditionally. It is so much fun and I have been really learning a lot. I am soley in charge of working on the Volunteer newsletter which excites me to the core. I control the content of the newsleter. I look forward to this challenge. I also work at the front desk, give tours of the facility and do membship paperwork. I am also hoping to helps M out with the after school program as a homework helper but that will depend on if I can get any additonal hours.

Additonally I did freelance work for Nancy Barry at Interlakes Theatre this summer. It was a great experience and I added a lot of new articles to my portfolio for future jobs. To see the reviews please go to my Theatre Is My Life Blog http://theatrereviewer826.blogspot.com

As previously mentioned I went to the American Idol Concert with Julie as a joint celebration for both our 26th birthdays. The celebration continued this weekend. Friday night I had Julie Matt and Sonya over and we ordered pizza, ate cake and playe a rousing round of 89s Scene It. Saturday mid-morning MAtt and I went down to Wellesley and spent the afternoon relaxing and left at around 6 to head to Foxboro to go out to dinner at Davio's an upscale Italian resturant at Patriot Place near Gillette Stadiun, The food was delish! Yesterday we went to Boston and went to the New England Aquarium. I had not been there in about 11 years or so. It was great to go back there. It was an interesting experience. I never learned so much abour Marine life in one sitting. :O) We had dinner at Matt's house and then went out for ice cream afterwards and played another game of Scene It last night!

Here's to year 26.. sure to the best year YET!!

Random Thoughts

WB Unplugged and   the regular LJ Writer's Block had two really good discussion topics in the past couple days.

Topic  #1 : Obama-Will  I vote for him again?
This question has a simple answer.. yes     Despite what other people may believe  I think Obama is  doing  a great job considering the huge mess that  Bush  left him with.  He needs to be given more of a chance to prove what he can do.  The economy  has fluctuated a lot in the past couple years but  I am hoping it will soon stabilize. None of the of  Republicans who are going up against Obama really stand out to me except for  Mitt Romney and John Huntsman. If Sarah Palin runs and wins  I may move to Canada.

Topic #2  Preventing Bullying
This is a personal issue for me  because I was bullied when  I was younger because of  my learning  disabillities.  I think the one main thing that needs to  be taught to people of all ages is tolerances.  If people  were more tolerant of others differences  there would be less room for bullying.
