Today was a good day. I went to the beach with Mike, Chris, Emily, and Eric. That was a lot of fun. We all ended up getting sunburned and that was not fun. After the beach, we went to Mike and Chris's house for cookies and pizza. Then we watched tv.
Tomorrow I am going to my cousin's bridal shower. That should be fun. I would write more but I am going to bed soon and there is only 4 minutes until midnight. So this will have to be the end for today... Short and too the point.

Social Networking Sites/Internet- Past, Present, and Future
What was life like before Facebook? Or any social networking sites, for that matter. They have definitely changed the way people keep in touch with others. It makes me wonder how much longer Facebook will be popular. Will it just be a gradual change or will it happen right away? Keep in mind Myspace used to be really popular back in the day. Now I do not know that many people who go on their account on a regular basis. I"ll admit, I still have a myspace but I hardly ever go on it. When I do, I go on for like a few minutes. I tried deleting my account once, but it was too much of a pain so I just kept it.
This brings me to another point. How many websites and stuff do you think people have just "floating around" in cyberspace? I for one, have a couple of old blogs, one of which I found like a week ago. It's weird to me how stuff can be online for what seems like forever. I also used to make accounts on different websites, some of which after I made the account on I don't think I've been back to since.
Back to Facebook... I spend some much time on Facebook each week. It is probably not a good thing. lol. When there's nothing else to do, it's like I'll go on Facebook to see what my friends are up to. I realized awhile back that if I actually deleted all the people I never see or even talk to, then I would not have a lot of friends left on Facebook. I mean I found some people I used to go to elementary school back when I lived in Milford. (That's going back to 4th grade.)
Anyway, it will definitely be interesting to see what social networking sites will be like in the future. Especially Facebook, will it still be here in 5 years? Or is something going to come along and become the next greatest thing? What will the internet and everything be like for future generations?

New Look
As you can see, I changed my blog layout. I found a pretty good website that had a lot of layouts to chose from. This was one of the ones that I liked, so for now it will stay.
I have nothing else that I want to say now.
Bye :)

First Lake Trip of the Summer
Today was a pretty good day. I met Emily at her house because we had made plans to spend the afternoon at the lake. We ended up going to Walmart for awhile and had lunch at Subway.
By the time we got to the lake, it was three in the afternoon. When we were there, we listened to music, ate snacks, played a card game as well as Jenga. We also went in the water for a little while. It wasn't an extremely hot summer day, but it was nice to go to the lake and relax. Eric met up with us after he got out of work. Unfortunately, it started to rain shortly after he got there. So we went in the water for a little while and then left.
Then we hung out at Em's house for a little while, followed by Applebees for dinner and dessert. Fun was had by all. I am glad that it worked for us to hang out. After that, I went home and watched America's Got Talent. That leads up to where I am now.

Music Video Mondays- "The Impossible"
I have decided that Mondays are now going to be "Music Video Mondays". So each Monday I will post a music video. Sounds simple enough, right? :)
Today's music video is, "The Impossible" by Joe Nichols. I love when songs tell stories. Country songs seem to do this a lot. They really can have such an impact. This probably is one of my favorite country songs of all time. I love that part that says "cause there's no such thing as hopeless if you believe." The song is all about believing in the impossible and not giving up.

Light the Night Walk
So I recently discovered this event when I was online the other day. It is called Light the Night Walk. It is put on by the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Basically the event is a three mile walk at night. The people who sign up for the event and raise at least $100 are the ones who are allowed to participate in the walk. Each "walker" receives a balloon. What is unique about these balloons are that they light up. There are three different color balloons: white for survivors, red for supporters and gold in memory of loved ones lost to cancer.
I think that this is a really cool idea. There is one taking place in New Hampshire in September. (In Nashua on September 25th.) My mom and I are going to take part in it. We still have to register and create a team. If anyone is interested in joining our team, let me know. If we sign up soon we still have a few months to raise $100 per person. I am still finding out information about everything involved in this. So if you want to learn more about it, you can go to http://www.lightthenight.org/ma/what/
I am doing this in honor of my cousin Paige, who passed away, from Leukemia in 2007. Feel free to message/comment me if you are interested. Either on here or Facebook.

Cutting it close...
Today was a good day. In the morning I went to yard sales with my mom. We ended up stopping at quite a few, but did not find anything too exciting.
In the afternoon I went to Emily's house. Which was nice because I had not hung out with her for awhile. She made me chili and we hung out and stuff. Then we went to Brooke's house to go swimming and Cat and other people were there.
After we hung out at Brooke's we went to the mall for an hour. Why does the mall close so early? There is like nothing to do after 9:00 on a Saturday night... Besides going out to eat. So it was decided that we hit up Burger King. It was nice to get to hang out with the three of them because we haven't all hung out in awhile. We are always able to have a good time. If only Erin had been there then it would have been complete.
After Burger King, Emily came over. We just hung out and watched videos on youtube, talked, and took pictures on my computer. It was still fun though. Don't get me wrong. I am always able to have fun with my best friend. We can always make each other laugh. We also watched a bunch of videos that I had on my computer from back in the day. These videos definitely captured many good times. There will be more good times in the future I am sure.
It is almost midnight, so I have to get this posted quick. Otherwise I will have missed a day of posting. So now I am off to go on Facebook for a bit, then read or watch a movie... Who knows. Good night. I will leave with a few pictures from our random photo shoot.
