Detroit: A City of Love

I love going through old photos. They are so timeless. Here is my great-grandmother. She died earlier this year. The kindest person I have ever known. She never yelled, never was rude. She was always kind. A great woman.

So, I'm in Detroit with my Mother and her family. I'm enjoying being with them, catching up with all of them, but I miss my friends, my routine, and getting lucky every night. I can't wait to get dressed up tomorrow and go watch my younger siblings sing at their church. Mostly, though, I wanna wear my new clothes and look cute.

It's such a great time of year. It really is. The baking in the house is so great. We've made a lot of cookies lately, but we're going to make some some beef stroganoff for christmass. My mom is such the caring soul, though, that she talked to Mike and they are going to use Portabello Mushrooms in my batch and flavor it that way. What an awesome idea, and what a great effort. Also!! on Xmas Eve they usually graze on shrimp throughout the night, not really ever having a main course, but because I am here they are going to make an additional dish with angel hair pasta and a type of cream based sauce with capers and everything. It's going to be delicious. I'm very excited for my Christmas.

My grades were decent this semester. 3.6 Not bad for a first semester. I am satisfied, but I am determined to score higher on my next semester. My classes should be more challenging this semester too, so I am eager to get to work on it all.

I've been keeping in close contact with my boo while I'm in Detroit. He's just so special. I'm glad I have someone like him. I've been keeping close to Natty too. I adore him, so we've been texting back and forth throughout break. Whether it seems like it from how I've been talking to Natty, I am excited for the possibility of him and Steve rooming together (and even more so for the three of us during the summer times) I think it's an arrangement, with planning, that could work out very very well.

I caught up with JoAnne quickly today. I miss her so much she's so great.

I'm not sure of my New Years Plans. You know I'm doi' something with Steven. Cause I'm makin out with him once midnight hits, just not sure where. Depends if I'm in the mood to go to a party and mingle with a crowd. Not sure. We'll do something fun and random.

Speaking of random, I have some more great pics of Steve that I can't wait to show you guys. I'll put them on my facebook as soon as I can. I left my cable for my camera in my room, and if I can't find a card reader I'm going to have to wait until the 8th to access them. No matter what, I love all of you (but I love Steven more)

Have a great Holiday!!!
