Yep, I'm back at volunteering at the interim. Maria (one of the supervisors) called yesterday when iIwas at school and said that people have been asking about me, and that they need more volunteers or something. I guess since I've been there for so long and they know how I work with the residents, they want me back. So earlier today after school was out, I headed there (its only like a block away from Westgate) and got some volunteer times. I start again tomorrow.

It's not as if I quit for a couple months because I hate it or anything. I enjoy volunteering there-it's a good cause. It's just after I came back from florida, so much had changed around there in the 2 weeks I was gone+I just wanted to kinda relax. Meh, it'll be good to go back there

Today was Mikko's 18th birthday^_^ it was alot of fun. Today started out with Chris's mom calling me at 11am ish telling me the plans for later on (will get to this later on). I then got up and called mikko, and told him I'd call in an hour for him to come over. So, then i got some breakfast, and hurried to finish the scrapbook. Once i was done, i called him up. After he called me, cole then asked if she could come over, and she did. before mikko came over, i grabbed a slab of cake my mom had made the other day, stuck some candles in it, and waited for mikko and cole to arrive. Cole arrived first, and mikko came moments later. before he entered my room, cole made him stop in the hallway so i could light the candles once they were lit I sang happy birthday and he blew them out for an hour or so the 3 of us just hung out, ate cake, and i gave mikko his present^_^

at about 3:30,  cole left to cassy's. Mikko and I couldn't go over to chris's yet, so we just kinda cuddled and such. he wanted to leave at 4:30, but i made sure we didn't leave till after 5, because that's when everything would be ready at chris's. Once we got to chris's, we (samara, kyle, mitch, chris, chris's mom and I) all shouted surprise and sung happy birthday. Then we had pizza, and saved the cake for later.

About an hour later at 6, we went to the movies and saw Never back down, which was good. we had an hour and a half we had to waste before the movie, but that's okay. We all got back at chris's at 10:20, and I left around 11, and now I am at home

So in all it was a really good day. He liked the scrapbook, as did everyone that saw it^_^ And I promise i will add the pictures of it on in a few days for everyone to see.

anyways, im kinda tired, so off to bed with me. Nighty night.

i have just completed my sonnet for english

Wedding Day

Blesseth art thou, my Queen of Ebony

Oh, how enthralled I still remain

Of how you captured me in your loving grasp, instantly

And yet, you remain more breathtaking than the most elegant crane

For you are as majestic as a black swan

Although dark as midnight, purity is still represented by your gown

For now it is past dawn

So wearing the dress, in the isle, you pace down

Reflections of love shining from our mystic eyes

And I know

You are looking upon your finger where a jewel lies

For oblivion has swept upon you like a crow

So, as of today, let us be enchained as one

Until time expires and is forever done

(Incase you missed some details, it is from a man's point of view, looking upon his wife on his wedding day, wearing a black dress that even though is the opposite of white, still represents purity and beauty)

dont know why this video is so ammusing, but it is

I was just on facebook, and i found out the art attack guy died just like 2 weeks ago of colon cancer

he was only 46

here's another poem written in english class the other day:

Golden Eyes

Lying in lover’s arms

Tears forming in eyes from his charms

…Yet, he speaks not a word

I still hear his heart sing out like a bird

The minutes pass

And I’m still up on Cloud 9 with no mass

We lock lips

A wave of Nirvana whips

You truly are all for me

So happy I am that I found destiny

I shall be forever grateful

And forever faithful

For you are better than the rest

Better than the best

Giving me love that is forever true

When these golden eyes look into your blue

But only golden when you’re here

For when you’re not near

They turn dark and dull to reflect how I feel

And the gold is turned into black steel

so earlier, i blogged saying I was feeling like shit, wanting to cry, and such.

That, was just me having a paranoia moment. Basically, me being like "is he going to come over today? does he still love me?" etc etc. Even when i was being paranoid, i knew he still loved me, i was just worried.

And yes, he did come over today, and it was great just to hold him and hug him without a single bad thought in my mind...

*sigh* to be 19 right now....

-Kristal

P.S. apparently, when im really really happy, my eyes are gold

but i just feel like crying, even though I know that things are going to be absolutely fine..

things will be better within a few hours, im sure of it..

Its from January. Mikko and I<3
