Perhaps I would rather be singing.
I aim to have some variety to what I write, so there are lots of different moods to my work.
IF I HAD MY LIFE TO LIVE OVER
I'd dare to make more mistakes next time.
I'd relax, I would limber up.
I would be sillier than I have been this trip.
I would take fewer things seriously.
I would take more chances.
I would climb more mountains and swim more rivers.
I would eat more ice cream and less beans.
I would perhaps have more actual troubles,
but I'd have fewer imaginary ones.
You see, I'm one of those people who live
sensibly and sanely hour after hour,
day after day.
Oh, I've had my moments,
And if I had it to do over again,
I'd have more of them.
In fact, I'd try to have nothing else.
Just moments, one after another,
instead of living so many years ahead of each day.
I've been one of those people who never goes anywhere
without a thermometer, a hot water bottle, a raincoat
and a parachute.
If I had to do it again, I would travel lighter than I have.
If I had my life to live over,
I would start barefoot earlier in the spring
and stay that way later in the fall.
I would go to more dances.
I would ride more merry-go-rounds.
I would pick more daisies.

And because it's a lot easier just to say it straight out, I belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Yup, I'm Mormon. It's a part of who I am, and I like it.

Once upon a time in the kingdom in the clouds, there lived a beautiful princess. Hey hair was long and golden and fell close to her knees. On this particular day she wore a lavender gown tied around the waist with a splotchy

Scriptwriter: The last episode was rather troubling for many of us I’m sure. It was never intended to end that way, I beg of you to understand and not hunt me down and try to get me to rewrite it, or explain myself… But stuff

Love you!

kapaja on April 29, 2005Kelsula Queen of the Dasies, Hows it going? How is school? Sorry it has taken me such a long time to write. I missed a day of school last week and I promised my host mom that I wouldn't use the computer on weekdays anymore. Honestly, she doesn't care, but I thought it would be better to honor my word. So I haven't used it except to write to my uncle because he is coming to Poland. SO yep, sorry about it.
Have you been on any more dtates recently? Lucky... I haven't. Frankly. I'm really tired. I've been "working out" recently. Well, only doing wall sits, sit-ups, and push-ups, but its a start. I think the exercise has me beat. Dang!!
MMM! It is dinner now. Kurde, pizza! I miss you Kels. Take care. Can't wait to see you again in 2 months!
Love, Kate
