Tomorrow @ MindSay



 

   
Graduation! [06/26]
So yes, yes, yes! Graduation is tomorrow. I gotta say, I'm soooooo totally excited! I mean, I don't know what's going on ... But these past 2 days that I spent signing Yearbooks & getting my own signed ... I don't know. It didn't really have much of an impact on me. I got home & read everything that was written to me & yes, they were all sweet & sincere & what most people would consider as "touching" (I was very picky with who signed this Yearbook), but well, I didn't cry or anything. The most any of them got out of me was an "Aww ..."

Meanwhile, classmates, teachers, & staff have been coming up to me & telling me how great I am & how much they'll miss me, etc. etc. & I'm just all bright & cheerful looking & listening to them, nodding at appropriate spots & saying the right things, while they look like they're about to get all teary-eyed just talking ...

I'm guessing the deal is that it hasn't all fully registered yet, at least not in my mind. Maybe & most likely tomorrow during the actual ceremony, the emotions will catch up. But really, graduating from h/s isn't a funeral event like some people are making it out to be ... It's a chapter completed and done with. We move on. I knew this coming into h/s & was prepared to leave the 1st day I stepped foot into THS. Sure, I've made some extremely great friends & other awesome people (some of which will be attending the same college as me) but geez. I don't know.

But I'm all set for tomorrow. In a sense. I have a great burgundy dress & cute silver kitten heels (I decided to not go too high) ... I'm not sure what I'll do with my hair. I wanna get the tips cut at least. But time's ticking too fast ... I'll do my nails myself. I just hope tomorrow goes well (practices have been awful!) & I don't get lost on my way to the hall (Yikes! That'll totally stink).

~Tomorrow May Be Too Late~ by Tory Adams



TOMORROW MAY BE TOO LATE
TO TELL SOMEONE YOU CARE
TO UTTER WORDS YOU MEANT TO SAY
WHEN THEY'RE NO LONGER THERE

TOMORROW MAY BE TOO LATE
TO VISIT THAT OLD FRIEND
YOU SHARED YOUR LIFE IN YOUR DAYS
YOU THOUGHT WOULD NEVER END

TOMORROW MAY BE TOO LATE
TO DO SOME NOBLE DEED
TO SHARE THE BOUNTY OF GOD'S GRACE
TO MEET ANOTHERS NEED

TOMORROW MAY BE TOO LATE
TO ATONE FOR PAST MISTAKES
TO FORGIVE AND BE FORGIVEN
HOWEVER HIGH THE STAKES

TOMORROW MAY BE TOO LATE
AND YESTERDAY HAS FLOWN
SO WHY NOT GET IT DONE TODAY
BEFORE IT TOO, IS GONE?
 
 
   
 

Tomorrow
Tomorrow I will get caught up reading and writing.

Its been a different couple of days ..... but I think tomorrow might be somewhat back to normal. 

Love that it is staying light later now ..... the sun today was so warm and comforting.  And another nice day is supposed to be in store for us tomorrow.

Saw a rumor that one of my favorite bloggers my be coming back into action ..... intrepid28tattooedjen 's  other half is threatening a return.  Hoping that he will !!! He is always a good read ..... whether sharing intellectual thoughts or letting loose with a rant ..... it will be nice to have him back.

Anyway .... tomorrow is another day and I will have more time to  read and write.  Dave is set on driving me nuts right now .... lol ..... can't concentrate .....

Peace.  J.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE:  Light the Fire of Awareness once a month by placing a vigil candle in the front window of your home, on your porch or in the window of your place of business OR on your office desk. This symbolizes your support of our national efforts for greater abuse awareness, prevention, intervention and a demand for immediate victim recovery.  The actual vigil hour is from 9pm-10pm Eastern Standard Time.  Now is the time to unite together for the sake of those who can not help themselves.  We need campus crusaders, child advocate groups, local communities and national businesses will vigil with us.  We will persist until this nation is moved into greater awareness and aggressive action on this matter.

PLEASE NOTE VITAL INFO:

The #1 Killer of Children Under the Age of 4

In 2007, Cancer killed 2,300 children under the age 15... more than all other childhood diseases combined.  In 2007, motor vehicles accidents killed 2,500 children under the age of 15 and in 2007, child abuse and neglect killed AT LEAST 2,100 under the age of 12.  It is suspected that the actual number of reported cases is up to three times higher.  There are no reports as to the number of children who die while in the circumstances of child abuse and neglect.  We MUST DO SOMETHING MORE NOW!

STOP ~WATCH & Respond! Now is the time! Witness Change... Do something more! We saved 5 lives in August 2007! We need NATIONAL Volunteers to get involved... The children of America NEED you adults to protect them! It is our responsibility. When we reduce crime against children, we produce children who become adults against crime! Be one of the many who offer greater hope for the children of tomorrow. We can't let them down! We MUST do something more.

Please... I am shamelessly begging!
