best friends never change

One of my bestfriends name is courtney. she recently moved to hermanown which is a 4 hour drive from where i live now. i was really sad when she moved away, but she has been coming down monthly to clean up their old house for showngs because it hasnt sold yet. she came down yesterday and we had so much fun. courtney is a beautiful outgoing person with so much to her, if you asked me to describe her in one word, it wouldnt work. anyway, i havent seen her for any of her visits because ive been off doing something every time, accept for yesterday.

i almost peed my pants at the sight of courtney and her mom in their minivan, and im pretty sure she almost did the same, she is known for that. we went and picked up my friend elizabeth and then went to the mall nearby. we were there for hours doing things that were just hysterical. like trying on all the sunglasses at one of the kiosks, and a bajillion prom dresses, and having perfume wars at bath and body works. it was so fun just seeing her, but also knowing that she hasnt changed a bit, other than shes groing a little taller :)
after about 4 hours of chilling at the mall, we went to see Paul Blart: Mall Cop, which there were no sets of 3 seats in the theater, so we ended up sharing 2 seats between the three of us. courtney sat in the middle and was the official holder of all snacks since we shared popcorn and a pack of gummy worms. she did shake alot though when she laughed so it funny to see the popcorn flying everywhere. we went back to the mall for another hour or so untill her mom came and picked us up. i know i will miss courtney alot until her next visit (or whenever i get to see her) but i will know even though shes in a different town, and with all sorts of new people, shes still my bigger little courtney that will always be the same, becase best friends never change.

my very first blog entry!

its pretty funny because i am quite afraid of heights and just last night i had a dream that my dance teacher put me up on a 50 foot high bench to dance on. believe me i almost peed my pants. anyways, the person behind me pushed me a little bit and i started crying. my dance teacher came over and told the girl to never do that again because it scared her too. she came and sat down next to where i was and said "you have to face your fears. otherwise your fears will face you and thats when you get scared."
one of my goals for this next year is to try to overcome my fear of heights, or at least get it so that i am not afraid to go up 50 feet and look down at the ground.
i dont exactly know where the rest of my goals are going to take me because i dont think i have really taken them on yet. i guess theres still a few that i do have in mind. so here they are...
>i want to be nicer to some people that i usually am not too nice to.
>i want to practice my talents more, i play french horn and i dance so i would like to practice those at least two hours a week.
>i want to be more honest with some people that ive kind of been cheating myself with. i know that lying gets you nowhere, and the guilt of it keeps building up higher and higher.
>this is probably one that i dont just speak for myself on but i would like to eat healthier and loose a few pounds. i know for me it probably isnt needed for the weight loosing because i am at a healthy weight for my age, but i know it will make me feel a lot better to got from weighing 125, to weighing 115 to 117 or so.
>i want to try harder in school and go for b's and higher, i know that straight a's would be great, but with how ive been doing, i probably wont make it there.
ill add more before the new years if i can, but if i dont i want to wish you all a happy new years and i hope you make the best of it.
