10 years GONE!

Keeping up with a blog is going to prove to be a bigger chore than I'd originally imagined!

So the date has been set for my 10 year high school reunion. UGH! Please don't tell me it's been 10 years since I left adolescence. The song "Real World" by Matchbox 20 keeps plaguing my mind with its lyrics.... "I wish the real world, would just top hassling me, and you, and me."

I'm still debating whether or not I want to attend my high school reunion...Isn't that why I got Facebook?!? Oh well, I have until May 31st to make a decision! Right now I'm leaning towards NO! Besides, I didn't start attending Brandon High School until I was a Junior.

AH, but this does lead me to reminise over some of the characters that I came across at ole BHS. I have to laugh out loud thinking about my physics class. Alyssa pumping me up with smarties at lunch so I could do better on my test! Moose streaking (NUFF SAID). PURL and white trash bags. Pep rallies...oh my... I'd never seen anything like it. I grew up in Basketball country...NOT football country! I learned fast that football is LIFE in Mississippi. I'm okay with that as long as it doesn't interfere with March Madness!

Hmmm...maybe I'll get an annual out and see if it helps sway my decision any!

God love high school, but please don't make me go back! :)

The Beginning!

I decided to start blogging as a form of personal reflection, and to share His goodness to me with you.

Be forewarned: I overuse the exclamation mark!!!! If that bothers you, I'm sorry! I intend to write from my heart... don't expect a lot of political correctness on this blog! :)

ENJOY :)

Peace and love!

P.S. I named my blog "Candieland" in memory of my friend Lanie. She used to call me Candieland ALL the time. She passed away April 09' after dealing with the death of her 3 month old baby in April 08'.
