• Walking in the Sunset

  You have probably heard me mention my local track on occasion. You have also probably heard me mention that I like to go jog or walk on it pretty often. I don't mean that I talk about it often, because I don't on here, but I do go walking and / or jogging on it quite often. More often than not it's just walking more than jogging. The best times to go to the track are usually before sunrise, or right after the sun sets. In the summer the temperature goes down at about that time and more people feel like going to the track. I notice that people tend to stick around the track a few hours (like 1 or 2) before sunset as well. We have periodical soccer games here, some times they have at least 1 soccer game every week, sometimes they have them twice a week or more over here at our local track. Those are probably the only times when the track becomes busier than it does at sunset or before sunrise.

  Another thing that attracts people to the track is that it is pretty big and has a great open view of the mountains here and all the scenery. The air is also clear and fresh. It is really pretty. This in turn makes it a great place for running and walking, or just playing games on the big open field in the middle of the track. The track has been here for a long time, I think I was probably 7 or 8 or something like that when they made it. Maybe it was before, I don't quite remember. I do remember that when they were still planting the grass and stuff, before it was done it got really muddy and me and a few of my childhood friends used to get in trouble periodically for playing in the mud. We were kids though so what more could you expect? ha ha.

  I don't even know what the track was before it was a track, I don't know if it was anything. Maybe it was just a bunch of empty weedy space before they made it over. I do however remember that across the street from the track there used to be a field of horses. I remember this because me and my friends used to go and feed them carrots on occasion. There is a neighborhood where that field was now though. It's sad those horses had to be moved. It would have been fun to have them around now. I hope they were moved to a better place at least.

  Anyway, so today has been a pretty uneventful day. I fell asleep for about 4 hours around noon. I have just been doing stuff on Xanga, listening to music, doing stuff outside, going on facebook and visiting my friends profiles, watching youtube videos, movies, and hanging around with my family. I also played on my DS a little today, mostly Mario kart and stuff. I guess I did enough today for it to actually qualify doing something.

  My nieces came into my room today and gave me these cute little things made out of beads. I kind of assume both of them are coasters. One of them is shaped like an 8 pointed star and the other one is just a circle. They might not be anything, they might just be decorations. Either way, they both gave me one and told me to take care of it. I will have to take pictures, maybe someone here can tell me exactly what they are.  All I know for now is that I like them.

  We had BBQ chicken for dinner. I am on day 9 of my diet. I only have to do it until the end of the month. Everything is going smoothly. I bought a new bottle of HCG from the store yesterday. The one I was using prior to yesterday was the left over HCG from my failed attempt in June. All those parties and celebrations kind of messed it up. Everything is working out perfectly this month though.

  Yesterday when I was texting Sam I asked him what he was doing, he told me he was playing games. I in turn asked him what kind of games he was playing and he said Online games. I told him I had been trying a few online games myself but I hadn't found anything. I didn't bother to tell him about the fact I have been playing Destiny Online for almost 3 years now. It didn't seem like a relevant thing to do because the game itself is horrible. I only go on it because while I WAS playing it I made a lot of friends. I just mostly sit around the city and go AFK a lot now. The game is usually on in the background on my computer 24 / 7. I never really bother to log off. My computer has a sufficient amount of RAM to handle it.

  He told me to go to nexon.net after I told him that I had been searching for games. I asked him which ones he was playing. He said that he was trying out Vindictus, Dragon Nest, and Dungeon Fighters Online. I decided to download Dragon Nest first because I have friends from Destiny Online that are playing it as well now. I still have to download and try the other two. I was pretty excited at the prospect of maybe actually being able to DO something with Sam. I still hope we will run into each other in a game sometime, it would be a lot of fun. I still have to figure out how to play the games though. I'm still getting the hang of Dragon Nest, it's a little different than some other games I have played control wise.  I was actually kind of relieved to find out that Sam and I were in different starter areas, because I would have made a complete fool of myself. I can be really clueless sometimes when I am getting to know how a game works. I can usually laugh about it though, it really is funny, but it's also embarrassing when someone I know is involved. I have to admit it kind of made me nervous for a little bit. I am sure it is going to work out fine though.

  I have only seen Sam 2 times since the end of high school 4 years ago. It's pretty crazy really. I won't lie, I do really want to see him but I am not one to force things like that so I haven't even said anything to him. It is pretty much up to him and God weather it goes anywhere. I have done everything I am supposed to do, well nearly everything in this area anyway.  I am always careful I don't say too much, even on here because I never know when he is going to read something on my blog here. Some things should just be kept to myself where Sam is concerned.

  I am writing a post about how I met him, so far it is 3 pages long in Google Docs. It is going to tell everything from the day I first met him to the present. Sounds pretty long but I don't think it will be too long. I am taking my time typing it though, I'm in no hurry at all. I am all the way up to half way through my senior year of high school when I first started talking to him. I still have a ways to go. I have been meaning to write about him for the longest time now. It doesn't have anything that would give away our location. Like I don't really name the schools names or anything, and I leave out the names of some people and stuff. I know how concerned some people are about privacy so with posts like the one I am typing I am always careful. I'm sure it will give you a clearer picture of just who he is to me and stuff like that. I have been kind of vague without even really meaning to on my blog about him. You guys see me talk about some of my other guy friends but I don't really talk about him that much. Which is pretty weird for me since I usually talk about people I really like a lot on my blog.

  Anyway, I don't think anything else is going to happen tonight, and I think this is long enough so I guess I will stop here. Plus, we are going to call my sister and say happy birthday to my nephew Jax. he is turning 1 today! Such a cute little guy!
