"I'm bored... How about you?"

Christmas is going to be here faster then we're expecting. It can be both exciting and boring at the same time. It's funny how that works, we spend half of the year waiting for it  and all of the sudden it's here, as if nobody saw it coming. And then it's over. School starts back up. Families go home. And we're back to waiting. But life isn't as hopelessly fast as we make it seem, opportunity is all around us, taking it is the hard part.
My Grandpa always said "If you're bored, it's your own fault." He was right. 

Let's face it, we have all the time in the world.

As for me, I have a whole list of things I would love to do this break. Nothing huge, just fun things. Besides, NinjaWeen was probably enough for morristown from me for this year. I want to take some friends to Dollywood, have a movie night, maybe even just a good old burrito party! But time is not the limiting factor in the equation, I am. I could wait all month for a trip to Dollywood and it might happen, but probably not. Or I can start planning now and have fifteen people coming by Saturday! 

What I'm saying is, if you're bored, fix it. If you're just waiting for one of your friends to have a Christmas party stop reading my blog,  get off your butt, and go plan one. Have fun, make memories, don't just sleep through another month without school. You have several days before Christmas, don't let it catch you off guard.

Now if you'll excuse me, my friends are getting out of school, I'm going to go do something.
