What You Mean To Me ... by Nikkie

You turned my darkness into light; You made everything all right. You picked me up when I was down; You turned my life around. If I didn't have you, what would I be? A blessing is what you are to me. When I needed you the most, you were there; Even if it seemed like you didn't care. When I didn't think I could make it another day, You chased all my doubts away. If I didn't have you, what would I be? A treasure is what you are to me. The world is full of many people, it's true; But there is only one of you. You fill my heart with love; You're a God-sent gift from above. If I didn't have you, what would I be? An angel is what you are to me. Lost and alone, I will no longer be; Because you are here with me. There is no reason to be sad; You've taken away all the bad. If I didn't have you, what would I be? A best friend is what you are to me!! and i just want to let you know i am here for you just as you are for me...

To You From Me

by Karin Solum

The hardest part of being a friend is knowing when you need it a little and when you need it a lot. So just in case you're in need of a friendly "hi" today, I wanted to let you know I'm here still caring, still thinking about you, and still being your friend.

Happy THANKSGIVING!!

one thing after the next has been working out today...

my iPod is finally fixed after a rough state, then the speakers were fixed...

soon i am about to leave for a second Thanksgiving with the other side of the family (we don't normally do this, but every year holds its suprises!)...let me fill you in since Halloween...

My birthday had its ups and downs...but as i recall I had some great outtings with my friends and i am still working on the dilemma of "friends."

I saw Harry Potter with my brother, Julian, and I did enjoy that a lot as well as 11.05.05 (Gabby's suprise dinner and movie outting with people) and 11.12.05 (Kayla and my evening in, dressing up in crazy outfits). But as for Harry Potter, i have never read the books, but i loved, LOVED the Hermoine and Victor relationship and i enjoyed the "darker" side of the story...Some where thrown in there I had my party and although it wasn't "perfect," it turned out pretty well and i really enjoyed the all-night movie marathon with Hana and Simone (even though i was beat tired afterwards)... 

HAPPY

HALLOWEEN!!!

meaning only 1 more day left until
