Yesterday I got my acceptance letter to USU. I'm not trying to sound cocky when I say that I wasn't worried about being accepted. USU pretty much accepts anyone who can read and write their own name. It's not hard to get in. But... this is something I've been dreaming about since... I could dream, pretty much. This is something that I've wanted for my whole life, and now it's happening. And I am so, so excited! And a little scared. Getting this letter means I'm actually going. In about 8 months, I'll be off to college. I'll move away from home, and start making it on my own. It also means that I really, really need that scholarship. I'm taking the ACT (again) on the 3rd of January, and now it's time to study my brains out. I'm going to be the very best I can be, and hopefully that's enough. If it's not... well, I'll deal with that when I get to it.
Also, Scott is now on his mission. It's somewhat strange for me, because for the past month and a half I've at least talked to him every day. So it's really strange to me that I haven't spoken to him in 4 days. I know, I know. Big deal, right? Well for me it is a big deal. He is doing something really, really amazing. And I am so proud of him. These next two years will be amazing.
The past little while I've been hanging out with Sarah, Jamie, Mary, and Katie. It's really strange for me to be hanging out with girls, I'm not gonna lie. I've never really got along with girls very well, as Nathan can attest. ;) Mostly I hang out with guys. But it's really fun to be able to talk about girl things and to giggle and scream and not get weird looks. Or not notice the weird looks, anyway. I don't know how I got these great friends, but I really do love them. They're wonderful.
Well, tomorrow is Christmas Eve. I can't believe it; 2007 is almost over!
Oh, Nathan was talking about my song. I wrote a song. Jaron and Rachel put music to it. It's super cheesy, but when you hear the music, it's much better. Nick rolled his eyes when he read it. But hey, I like it. I don't know if I really want to post the lyrics up here, but if you want to read them, let me know and I'll see what I can do. ;)
Anyway, that's all for today. Hopefully I'll post again before 2008, cuz I've got some good ideas. Merry Christmas, everyone.

Eh, most songs read cheesily without the music. That's why they're songs. ;-)
Hope you had a fantabulistic Christmas full of lemon drops, moon pies, candy canes, penny whistles, zebras, and shiny things. 'Twas good to see you!
...I don't think I rolled my eyes... I thought it was good. You're putting words in my... eyes.
