    2007 has been a year of
    Growth
    Change
    Getting ahead
    Falling further behind
    Hating myself
    Loving myself
    Wondering why
    Being stuck in the same old rat race

    Exclamation

    It was the best of rhymes, it was the worst of rhymes.
    It was a time of accomplishment, it was a year of disillusionment.
    It was a year of meeting new friends, it was a year when old enemies resurfaced.
    A time of hope, and a time of fear.
    A time of life, and a time of loosing loved ones.
    A search for peace in a time of war.
    A time of gain and a time when many lost everything.
    A time when we almost walked away and a time when we found our place to stay.
    A time of tears and a time of laughter.
    A time of debate and a time of locked threads.
    A time of growing closer and a time of division.
    And a time, that by God, through ups and downs, ins and outs, good times and bad,
    We were always LitNeters...We were friends...

    Pendragon
    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...
