Yawn... I am tired. I haven't been sleeping very well lately. My throat is hurting and I keep coughing. I would like to travel sometime. I want to go to Greece there is so much history there and it just seems like it would be amazing. When I get older I want a job that would allow me to travel. I was thinking of maybe being a flight attendant. Maybe do that for a few years until I want to settle down. I don't know though. I have never been on an airplane before. I want to go to Miama sometime. Some family lives down there. I don't know my mom's family too well. I can't wait for the next Olympics. Right now I am looking up the National Anthem for some of the other countries. I wonder what it is like in these countries after the Olympics ends. Like what does Vancover do now? I mean they just spent 4 years preparing for the Olympics... now what?hrrmm...

Olympics

OK so I officially love the Olympics. lol I didn't get to see the opening ceremonies this year :(. I was too busy babysitting. Its amazing how the countries come together and compete. I mean how many times does that happen??? OK well every 4 years, but still its pretty cool. One of the moms of the children I was babysitting was trying to explain it to her daughter, but Carlie didn't get it. I keep hoping Jamaica will have another bobsled team. Oh well. I find it funny how for just 2 weeks everyone is watching curling lol. My dad actually seemed to understand the game. At first I didn't know whether to be oddly impressed or to be afraid for his mental state. I think I went with oddly impressed. haha Ohh...!! I got to see hockey and actually watched some of a game. It was amazing how intense it got.

Snow Days

So we have had 8 snow days so far. I am kinda getting to the point where I really don't want to miss any more school. Pretty soon I am going to get bored and I don't want to hit that point lol. I don't mind the snow very much. Its beautiful to look at. It seems like it shows the world in a whole new way. Everything is white. In litterateur white is the symbol of innocence. Everything looks pure and good. People are getting out and having fun. Although after the snow is around for a while it turns brown and corrupted. Much like people. It loses its beauty and people begin to complain. We leave tracks in the snow moving from one place to another. Its kinda how A Tale of Two Cities explains it. The are footsteps of those who walk in and out of our lives. Sunday I was walking to the van and I was so amazed to see the snow flakes sticking to each of us and they didn't melt. I was so excited. I never understood how scientists could say that no snowflake is ever the same, but I don't know. It makes sense now.
