Breaking Up
Breaking up is the hardest thing to do. Especially if you're the one breaking up; you'll feel guilty.
For some reason I just can't be with someone for too long. To tell the truth, it's good being single. I don't feel weighed down or anything; just that feeling of freedom.
I've been with this boy for 3 three weeks now and I'm all ready thinking about breaking up. I hate doing it because I don't like to hurt people's feelings, and then I'll end up crying. It's just too much to deal with. I've been kind of avoiding him because I don't know what to do.
I really admire people who are married for years and years with the same person, and still be happy. I don't know if I could ever do that.
I'll post my outcome when I do whatever I do.

The "Older" Dora the Explorer

This is what the older Dora the Explorer looks like. I think she's much prettier than the younger one. I'd totally get this one.
(Below is an article on the story).
NEW YORK – When toy maker Mattel, working with Nickelodeon, announced earlier this month that a "tween" version of Nick's beloved "Dora the Explorer" cartoon character would be unveiled in the fall, the response was overwhelming ... overwhelmingly negative.
Dora the streetwalker. A sexed-up version of a children's icon. A poor example for kids.
Those were just some of the terms tossed around the blogosphere after Mattel released a silhouette of the "new" Dora, whose image was drastically changed from the endearing tomboy look Dora fans grew to love, with her bowl-cut hairdo, T-shirt and red shorts. This new Dora appeared to have long flowing hair, and was wearing what seemed a scanty skirt, emphasizing her long, shapely legs.
"Did Mattel turn Dora the Explorer into a Tramp?" read one headline from The Huffington Post.
But not so fast.
Mattel and Nickelodeon both say there are two major misconceptions about the new Dora, which is not replacing the "Dora the Explorer" cartoon, but will be a new interactive doll aimed at 5- to 8-year-olds.
"People care so deeply about this brand and this character," Leigh Anne Brodsky, president of Nickelodeon Viacom Consumer Products, says. "The Dora that we all know and love is not going away."
"I think there was just a misconception in terms of where we were going with this," Gina Sirard, vice president of marketing at Mattel, says. "Pretty much the moms who are petitioning aging Dora up certainly don't understand. ... I think they're going to be pleasantly happy once this is available in October, and once they understand this certainly isn't what they are conjuring up."
Part of the confusion stemmed from the silhouette that was released, which made Dora look more like a Britney Spears or Lindsay Lohan than a young girl. For the record, the doll does not wear a short dress, but a tunic and leggings. And while she looks older (she's supposed to be about 10), with longer jewelry and longer hair, she doesn't have makeup and seems pretty much like a 10-year-old girl.

It SNOWED!!!!!!!!
I woke up this morning and it was snowing. I mean actual snow falling from the sky. It was AWESOME!!!!
The weather people said it might snow today, but no one never takes it seriously. But truth be told and it did. Me and my sistas played in it all morning. 6:45-10:00 exactly. It was so COLD. We had built two snowmen (mini, but still cute), made snow angels, and had a killer snowball fight. I even made a huge snowball and it's in a freezer as I type.
This was a fun day, if only it snowed on a school day.
Hope you had a great SNOW DAY!!!!

The Last Day
WoW, this month has flown by quick. As you know it's the last day of February. Tomorrow is the first day of March. It's just so weird how it's the third month already. I mean I still remember New Years Day, the first day of 2nd semester, heck I still remember the very first day of school. When I met Mr. Z. I walked in homeroom and saw 3 people who were in Honors and I wondered was I in the right class.
Anyway, I'm so totally gonna miss 8th grade. A lot of things have happened and been said. A lot of things been thought and felt; I wonder what 9th grade will be like.
But I would like to write or type some more, but I gots to go.
BYE!!!!!!!!

An AWESOME movie!!!!!!!!
It has stopped raining long enough for me to write this.
Okay, you all have heard of a movie called The Notebook. A movie about love, and a book by Nicholas Sparks. There is another movie and book by him called A Walk to Remember. It is even better!!! I mean I've seen it twice and I'm planning to read the book, too.
You would enjoy this book if you believe in love, faith, and miracles. I highly recommend it.
Here is something that they say in the movie that stuck out to me:
"Love is like the wind. You can't see it, but you can feel it"
