                    <description><![CDATA[Hi!  How is everyone doing?  I'm pretty good.  My job sucks, but that's life.  I just randomly decided to do an update; nothing exciting is really happening...  I've been talking to my crush lately, which is very exciting, but that's it, really.  I'm thinking of volunteer possibilties for this summer, because I'll need it to be eligible for NHS next year.  (I'll be a junior in High School!  I'm getting so old!)  Anyways, I've gotta go.  Comment if you have some ideas for volunteering in Minnesota!  TTYL!]]></description>

I'll have to come back on again later, because I don't have time right now.  It's good to be back, though.]]></description>

                    <description><![CDATA[So, America, along with at least 35 other countries, is now at war with Saddam Hussein and the Iraqi military.  I'm not going to pretend to understand the whys and hows of this conflict, but I truly hope that civilians in Iraq come out with the freedom that everyone across the world deserves.  It's going to be a long, scary fight, and all we can do is pray that it will turn out for the better.  For those who have family serving in the military, my heart and prayers go out to you.  God bless America!]]></description>

                    <description><![CDATA[Hi everyone!  I have been back online for quite some time, but have neglected to update.  How naughty of me!  My life is going well; how is everyone else?  Well, it's not 100% great because my dear younger foster brother and sister are going to be adopted to a couple in New Mexico, so I'm like, losing two family members at once.  It's so hard, but at the same time, I know that the adoptive couple will take much better care of them than we could here.  (There is currently 8 kids here, including myself, and only 2 parents)  I will get through this, right?]]></description>

I am very busy with school, but am kinda looking for some volunteer work to do.  I just read the September issue of National Geographic, and it has some shocking facts about how fast the freshwater sources of Earth are running out.  I'm thinking conservation right now.  Well, I gotta run for now, but God bless you all!]]></description>

                    <description><![CDATA[I found out today that my cousin, who is 15 (as am I), drowned last night.  He never even got the chance to truly live!  He was an identical twin, and I cannot imagine how distraught his twin is right now.  I have cried so much, I don't think there are any tears left!  It is so hard to believe.  I am going to put a prayer here for him and the family, if anyone would like to pray for us.<br />
  God, I don't understand your will, but I know that Andy is with you now.  Help my family to trust in You, and not lose faith.  Help us to be strong in our faith and remember him as the funny boy that he was.  I pray that you would comfort us through our grieving, and I thank you for the assurance that he is there with You in heaven. Amen.]]></description>

                    <description><![CDATA[Here is something I wrote today when I needed to express my emotions.  (I don't know if it is really a poem, but here it is anyway.)<br />
Frustration<br />
Why is life so hard?  No matter how many books I read, no matter what I do, it is all in vain.  I just want to rip something apart!  Why not my life, it is already tattered and crumbling.  My emotions go unchecked, my mind is reeling, and I can hardly breathe.  All is not well, so what do you want from me?  I feel like a monster, attacking my loved ones because I can't deal.  What am I supposed to do?  I can only play it cool so long before I explode.  In the end, all I can do is let the storm pass, pray that Jesus Christ will forgive me, and trust that He will get me through the next one.]]></description>

(Uh oh!)  After a while, I thought of an idea, so here goes.  Maybe I should compile a list of tips that give people ideas on how to produce less garbage, then pin it up in convenient places like the grocery store and what not.  I would like some feedback on this and if you have any tips, send 'em my way, please!]]></description>
