So let's see how long.....it appears i didn't write in this journal for the entire year of 2006. Interesting. Ah well so Kelsey was talking about her myspace so that made me think about this thing so i decided why not write something. December 31, 2005. What's happened since then? I grew maybe half an inch. I survived being a freshman. I got a perm. I commited minor offenses in New York. I learned how to knit. I fell in love. I discovered I have crappy handwriting. I conquered my fear of staplers. I ate an entire bag of marshmallows in one sitting. I got my first kiss. I became obssesed with Rush. I bought a huge amp for my bass. I wore almost the exact same thing every day for two months. I recieved a $1,400 Buffet clarinet. I managed to roll of a bed and land in an open drawer. I read The Catcher in the Rye. I almost got ran over by a cab. I suffered my first heartbreak. I found my old Hansen tape. I bowled a 12. I discovered vehicular homicide is a 6 point violation. I quit dance. I began to love Hannibal Lector. 
  Besides that, not much. I've been 16 for 3 days and I already feel old. If you think about it I'm already over half way to thirty/ quarter way to sixty/ sixth way to ninety. Where's time gone? sometimes more then anything I want to go back, just for a little while, so I can rember how things were. Like sixth grade. What happened to recess, and frienships, and innocence, and that picturesque reality?
  So that's my almost yearly update. If you actually read this, thanks. You're far more patient and dilligent then I. I'm done.
