If I could take vacation with any two people it would be my brother and sister, and I would go back to Ireland. Neither of them have been, and I would love nothing more than to show them what I saw and experience when I experienced with them by my side. Not only is the country absolutely beautiful, but it is a very fun place to be, and I know we would not run out of things to do, places to go, and things to see. I think they would really enjoy it, and I know I would love it!
Many people have dogs. They hunt with them, use them as guide helpers, or simply keep them as pets. My father-in-law has a huge German Shepard. His name is Riddick. My father-in-law also has a cat named Jinx. That being said, he must use dog gates to keep the two separate. People always say that cats and dogs fight alot. Well, it is definitely true with these two. They are the sweetest animals when they are apart, but let the cat loose in the dogs room and bam! They are fighting. The extendable dog gates keeps them separated into two rooms so they can stay away from each other and be happier. I love both cats and dogs. I have a cat already, so when I decide to get a dog I will probably also have to use dog gates.

The best thing about this past holiday was that my family got to experience it together. It was the first year since Hurricane Katrina that my siblings could all be together for Christmas and that meant a lot to me. In addition, it was a chance for my family to celebrate my college graduation with me. The worst thing about this past holiday was how quickly it went by. It seemed like it only lasted a few minutes. There was so much going on and so much to do that I feel like my time with my siblings was wasted on things that were not as important as us simply being together.
In 2011, I am looking forward to beginning the next chapter of my life. I recently graduated from college, and I plan on beginning either law school or graduate school in Fall 2011. I hope that 2011 will bring about a new me. I have been taking care of my body better with diet and exercise. I have also been going out and partying less, so I can focus my attention on what is truly important that this point in my life. I have been clear headed and determined thus far this year, and I hope to continue on this path for the remainder of the year and my life.
