Prelude

Hey all.
Nanny Fran, Pappy, Dad, Jan, Bruce, Midajah, Grammy, Grampy, Marie, Cole, Kieran, Mom, Tianna, Shane and whoever else happens to stumble across this, my cheat of a way to keep you all in the know.
I went for a walk today, to pick up a few books to read on my full week and a bit off and as i was walking home i felt a tinge of guilt. You see, yesterday i picked at random who was going to get a christmas card this year. I don't have all your addresses and although i have so much to tell you, i just wrote 15 hours worth of exams. Soooo i guess this will have to suffice. I've always been alittle patriotic towards handwritten letters, they are a little more romantic. But despite my traditional shortcomings, i hope you will love me just the same.
The world seems beautiful today. I was walking home and a big yellow school bus stopped next to me. A little boy had his face pressed against the glass and he was looking at me. He didnt seem to care that i was looking back. He was just awkwardly placed because he didn't bother removing his bulky back-pack and he seemed tired. Thinking back, elementary school was tiring. Afterall, you only had about 45 minutes at long recess to build a castle and execute a tremendous battle. Then as i crossed the street a little old lady stopped in her boat of a cadillac and just smiled a HUGE smile at me. People are funny, and i am the intrinsic 18-year-old who gets to appreciate it because i have lost my adventerous youth and i havent yet earned my right to smile an old crazy smile at those young whipper snappers.
Anyways, i got my marks back today and i seriously thought that this semester was going to be killer, i didn't REALLY apply myself like i usually do and i pulled off an 80% average anyways. Oh geez. Its funny you know because on my womens studies test, i didnt know a few answers so i just wrote "vagina" and i still passed with flying colors.
Anyways, i hope you are all well and peaceful and happy. I hope christmas is great and i love you very much.
I'll write again soon. So long as you check this crazy thing.
Miss you
Britt
