Take Me Into the Light...

I recently discovered some things that make me happy:

-Katy Perry has this song called "E.T." It has great lyrics and a kickin' beat.

-The movie "Cabaret" is phenomenal. If you haven't seen it, check it out. The storyline is amazing, the contrasts of lives are depicted so well, and the musical numbers are actually splendid. I love it.

-Just Dance 2 for the Wii. Extremely addicting. I've played it over 6 hours in 3 days. I'm pretty sure that's not healthy. Or is it? I do feel sore after playing for a couple hours, not to mention the perspiration that I expire. (Is that the right phrase? I'm too tired to try something else. I like the way I said it.)

-My friends. Oh, what would I do without them. Monday, I went sledding with two of them. I felt like a little kid again. It felt good to let out screams and to feel the rush of the cold winter wind upon my face. Today I watched "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" and played Just Dance 2 with some more of my friends. I love how I can act like a child one day and the next day I act like a teenager. Watch out! Tomorrow, I might be an adult. =]

-My family. Oh, what would I do without them. I love that my dad and I can watch hours of Match Game together. What a show that was. Charles Neilson Reily is a masterpiece himself. I love that my mom and I can watch cheesey movies together and not feel bad about wasting 2 hours of our lives, because to us, time spent together is not wasted. (The rest of my family is great too. But that would take hours to write about.)

-The Internet. I have to admit that I enjoy technology. While I may not always like the way people get so attached to it, I will say that it has helped me so much. For instance, I know how 3 pen pals in Spain, 1 in Germany, and 1 in Uganda. I have many friends on facebook, which is a superb way of connecting with people. I recently reconnected with some friends from elementary school.

-Adjectives. Yes, they are awesome. I tend to use the same plain old ones deliberately, without any thought. But tonight, I feel like using a variety. I think diction is very important. I want to keep my blog interesting, even if the total number of readers equals me.

I hope that everyone has had some happy holidays and that this new year will bring joy to all of you. May God bless you.

Love always,
Arianna
