Okay, it's been a while and I understand this. No one complained though so I didn't think anyone cared all that much. I'm doing alright. I just finished the first quarter at my school and there are like 3 more i think or rather 3 and a final so yeah. Anyway, things are going alright. I don't know what i'm doing for mexican independence probably nothing. However, if you want to know just ask me, because if you're reading this it's almost guaranteed you have my im name. If there is a reason to keep writing in here, then I will but you tell me. If i get a comment sometime in the next week on this entry then I'll keep writing. If not then I'm shutting her down.

later,

Bert

hmm...the countdown continues...I have wednesday night and maybe thursday that i'll be online...and then thursday i'll be leaving for tulsa...on a plane early friday morning...and yeah. I don't know when i'll be online again after that. Hopefully Saturday...hopefully. I just don't know. This whole thing is so strange to me, but I think of it as an adventure and one that although it's scares me, I'm ready for.  I'll do some packing tonight, and a lot tomorrow and then i'm off...Wow. This summer has flown by. Last day of work was pretty cool. We finished like over half an hour early and sat around cuz we can't clock out til 10. The managers didn't bother to tell me what i was doing...okay i'm going to submit now because someone is being annoying...later all

Not that I think anyone really reads this thing, but just in case there are some things that I will never mention on here, just on principle. Today is going to be another day at work. The countdown continues. Monday is my last day at that job and then it's 4 days til Mexico. I know it's all I talk about, but it's the biggest thing going on in my life. I don't know what else to talk about. Plus it's exciting...and the rest of things are either dull or depressing. I don't want to be either right now...Okay, first things first. I have 2 people to go out with tomorrow and I really feel bad having to blow one off. I really want to go with both of them, but they both were busy and that's the only day they have free... One is my brother and the old is an old friend. Yeah, I know what you guys were thinking...Like I actually had a date:-p...get real. Anyway, there is not much else going on...my dog is barking cuz she's lonely or senses people upstairs or something. I guess I should go check it out. She is a huge monstrous 100 lb. dog, but she craves attention too. She is such a sweetheart. Those of you who have never had a rottweiler just couldn't understand, but they are great animals. Oh also I met this really cool girl in a chat room. I never do that...but I was bored. She is a great girl and fun to talk to...She's 23 and practically engaged...but i wasn't looking for a cyber relationship here...and I found a great friend..thanks rini.

oh man...I leave for Mexico at 8:25 in the morning on August 6th. It's next friday. I can't believe it. I think I'm going to set up a new site to post pictures on and update people on the mexico scene. I am really excited I just wish I was leaving under better terms with some people. It looks like I might not get a chance to say goodbye to a lot of people in the way I want to and one in particular. So I guess I can say it here and hope they read it. When I think about all the things that I have in my life. I consider myself pretty blessed. I have a roof over my head a mom that loves me a brother and sister that care. I keep meeting people who don't have this...But on top of that there is more. I have a couple friends who are really special to me that have been there for me...I thank both of them... Most of all though I want to thank you because without you around for the past year and a half or so I don't know where I would be. I read the first email you ever sent me again last night. I remember how scared you were of what I would say, but I love you and I won't hold anything you do against you...I don't know what the future holds for me in mexico or what is going to happen to us, but no matter what I'm thankful for the time we had...and while I wish and hope that i'll know you for all eternity...if it's not meant to be...I understand. I don't know what will happen in mexico but I know that even if all this wasn't happening that i wouldn't have much time to talk...So I guess maybe a goodbye or a farewelll is in order...but I just don't have the heart to do it...So i'll talk to you again sometime...whether it be here or there...on this planet or on some completely different plane of existence. Good night all...Thank you.

I'm just not sure about a lot of things. I said i'm staying off aim for a few days and I am...I mean that, but i didn't say i'm going to stay off the computer. I got my digital camera today as well as some accessories. I finally did it and let me tell you it wasn't cheap. But, It will be cool to do in Mexico. I wish I had the time to fool around with it today, but I have to go to work. I probably should have already left but oh well. Anyways work 1-10 at the market...oh joy. But, tomorrow hopefully I'll be off and everything will be good. I guess i don't really have anything else to say journal. I'm just too confused by a lot of things right now, but I'm sure it will all make sense soon enough. Things have a way of working out. Anyways later all who read this...which isn't many...And i suppose it's much better that way.

pay it forward-
