Hello my blogger friends. This is blog post number one-hundred.
Josh - As promised you are thanked first. A little over a year ago you told me to create a blog, so I did. You told me write about whatever, so I did. You still influence this blog today (if you notice I now have labels for post). Thanks for showing me the ropes, the styles, the buttons to push, the gadgets to add. You seemed to have created a little community for all of us here and I really like that. Thanks for everything.
Gabby - I've only met you once but before that you were probably my first blogger friend turned facebook friend turned twitter friend which I don't think will ever happen to me again. I would write more but you switched to Wordpress so I won't go on.
Mom, Dad - I remember emailing you telling you I had started one of these blog things and from then on I've had nothing but support from you. Thanks.
Anonymous - You left a comment on a post which is pretty cool even if you are someone I know but I like the mysteriousness. Either way, I appreciate it.
Carolyn - My fellow hippie Baylor friend. I always appreciated you spilling your Monster that day. Always enjoyed the Dr. Pepper Float tradition with you and Amy, even though she never came.
All the original blogger people that Josh recruited - John, Blake, Matt
All the new blogger people - Lauren, Melanie, Jojo, Jessie, Matt(again), Ben(again)
Mr. Post - It may not seem like much but you told our class once that you're never too old to start enjoy reading books and I have to say you were very right. You started me with a little Donald Miller and it went on from there.
One of my friends told me the reoccurring theme of my blogs are "letting go and pressing on" which I guess is true. I tend to always look back at the past a lot which is sometimes burdensome but I've been told without a past, you have no future so I guess looking back has its pros and cons.
Another friend of mine says I say, "I guess" too much and that I should sound more sure of myself. It is true that I do say, "I guess" a lot but I would be lying if I said I was confident in myself.
I have learned the best way to write poems are to write it right away or else you forget it and then you get disappointed. For a couple of my poems I would have to get out of bed, turn on my computer, and then start typing before they left me. Even though I don't write a lot of poems and most of them are weird and pretty cliche I enjoy it every now and then.
So many thanks to everyone for being a part of this. Maybe someday I will be at two hundred but who really knows. Thanks again to all.

To Josh: Yes!
To Lauren: When you get to 100 I'll classify you as an "original" but honestly it will probably right after this.
To Matt: You're the one who tells me I say "I guess" to much.
:) i started my blog in november 08....and then i got self conscious and deleted it all. then joshua told me to re-start it. so i guess im old and new.
