 No matter how busy i am i can remember that no matter what, ill be able to stop at the end of the day and go to sleep and watch some TV.  But before that i like to give myself a 10 min break between every major task i complete.

 I believe that the most beautiful creation in the world is forests. The way the sunlight cuts through it and the animals it is home too make it a magical break in the now industrial world. The sound of the wind blowing through, the birds chirping, and the smell of dirt and flowers makes forests earths symphony.  

If I had to lose every sense except for one, I would choose to keep my vision. As much as i like listening to music, losing my sense of vision would be the most debilitating. It would change the way i walked, ate, i wouldn't be able to read or write ETC. I just think sight is the most important sense.

 The holiday that I look forward to the most each year is Christmas. We don't really have any real traditions, but we do decorate and put up a Christmas tree which is something to look forward to. Whats really meaningful and important to me is the time spent with family over the holidays.

 I've counted every second of your day, from the slow mornings to the busy evenings and the late night study sessions. My scratched band tells the tale of your life, the time well spent, and the time wasted, but never the time not cherished.

 I really liked that poem about the fear of dying that we read yesterday. I think what stuck out most about that was the way that it was written, I liked that style that it was written in. That poem made me more interested in poetry than anything else we have read so far.

 I didn't do much over spring break! I mostly just worked as much as I could and rested. I did start working on this model car that I've had for a while which has been pretty fun! But I would say overall I had a pretty uneventful spring break

 I miss not having responsibilities! Sometimes its nice having something that you have to do and people can depend on you for, but its also nice to not have anything that you NEED to do. But of course I am too old not to be doing anything, so I'll just have to wait until I retire to enjoy it again.
