: )

Here's a good poem I read the other day.
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

This weekend

This weekend I went to a wedding in New Jersey with my boyfriend. It was the craziest wedding I've ever been too. It took us almost 5 hours to get there and when we checked into our hotel we thought we had plenty of time to get ready which was an hour. Then we realized the ceremony was an hour and fifteen minutes away and we would never make. We went and got food and drinks instead. After we went to the reception. it was incredible. All the food stations during the cocktail hour were all on ice sculptures for example the sushi station was on a dragon table made of ice. It was an open bar all night. The dinner was so good. After they had all different dessert stations. My favorite was the chocolate fountain. I had a great time.

Maine

This weekend I went to my parents maine house. It is so pretty up here. It's in fryeburg maine which is like 10 miles from North Conway Nh. We are in the valley so we are surrounded by mountains. Everything is still snow covered which add that much more beauty. Most the lakes are frozen. When I look out on to our lake all you can see are little ice fishing shacks. It's a neat sight to see. I spent the weekend snowmobiling. It is one on my favorite things to do but unfortunately the season usually only lasts about 3 months. The things you see are amazing, because your in the middle of the woods and would mostly like not see it otherwise. I actually saw something pretty stupid. A guy tried to cross an open river on his snowmobile. It was only a week old. Good way to blow ten grand. The guy was ok though, just really dumb. The brand of the machine was an Artic cat. The first thing my dad said was didn't you know cats can't swim. I'll be sure too post some pictures once I upload them!

Website

This website is killing me! I've spent hours trying to get it to work and it won't! I've never been so frustrated at the computer in my life, besides the one time I thought it would be a great idea to take a math class online. It keeps telling me access denied, which i really annoying because I went to school and had someone help me with it. Maybe it's my mac computer? I'm not really sure, all that I know is I'm starting to really not enjoy technology very much. The most annoying part is that this is what my brother graduated college with a degree in computer something or other, but will be help me! I don't think so! Ughhhh

Internet and communication

Just like everything else in the world the internet has pro’s and con’s. I believe there are more pro’s then cons but others may disagree. Some people believe that the internet is eating us whole. I do agree though that now a days people are very impersonal. Nothing is ever done face to face for the most because of the convenience. Instead of taking time out of your day to call someone let alone meet up with them you can send them a text or email; therefore, instead of using time to talk to them in person you can be multitasking doing other work etc. I do believe we are now more prone to send a family member an email then to call them keeping as more closely connected but in a impersonal way. People can not live without there laptops, pda, cell phone whatever with out feeling lost or having anxiety. A student made a great point that people need instant gratification. they want an answer now or they want to know whats going on not, not later. I believe will say things that they regret through email then they would face to face also. I believe the internet can be used as a great tool if we utilize it the correct way.
