HOPE is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all,
-Hope, Emily Dickenson

Time to wipe everything clear and start over with a nice clean, blank slate. If only life worked the same way. Delete a few memories and then continue moving forward as though they never happened. But if life were that simple, it wouldn't be worth living in the scheme of things, anyway.

They've really been cracking down on us at school lately. We had four exams yesterday, two of which were fairly easy, and every day they keep dumping more and more loads of homework upon us. Thankfully, only my European History teacher has given us homework over winter break, but he gave us quite a bit to do. There are about twenty discussion questions to write responses for on Chapter Eighteen: The Enlightenment from our textbook. Wow, thanks for the nice present, teach.

For a while, I was condsidering making a schedule of times that I could drop by my Journalism teacher's classroom over winter break to hang out and help plan the next issue of our school paper the "Tomohawk". However, after a few recent events I really don't feel like going back on campus any sooner than I have to. (Yeah, it has nothing to do with the fact that nobody has turned in any interviews to help us draw out a list of stories that we might consider publishing...)

Yesterday I learned two things that have completely ruined the Holidays for me and I do hope that the next year can turn around for the better. One thing that I learned was that my drama teacher from last year has decided to quit teaching at our school do to personal reasons. It's not so devastating, but I'm really going to miss her and I wish that I had a chance to be in the performances that she held this year. She has taught me many things, and I thank her kindly for have showing me the acting world.

Another issue is more tragic, however, I am not quite up to discussing it with anyone other than the few I have told about it already. In closing I'd like to say that we should all cherish life - the impact you can make on those you know and care about with can change them for better or for worse. Even when you are gone, that impact will still remain of this earth.

That's all for today, may your paths be green and golden ^_^
