The Adventures of a Uniphant

Sooo, we didn't exactly break a world record. Not even close really... Only 1,700 people showed up... There were a lot of donations though! Ok who decided to let three holidays happen in the same week? Chinese New Year, Mardi Gras, and Valentine's Day- oh my! Normally the first two are pretty big for me. This year I forgot them for the most part. I did celebrate Valentine's Day though. My opinion on Valentine's Day? It's a pointless holiday. If you love a person show them all year round, not just some commercial holiday for Hallmark. I like to spend time with my family that day and make sure they know I do love them though. This year I did have a Valentine, but it wasn't different from any other day. Luckily he feels the same way about it, just another Thursday.  Anyway I hope you all had a nice Thursday and the weekend be fun!

Well normally on a Saturday one would sleep in, but tomorrow? Oh Heck to the NO! I'm getting up to go make snow angels! Why would making snow angels tomorrow morning vs. the evening make any different? Well, I'll be happy to tell you! Tomorrow morning thousands of people will be gathering to make snow angels to help break a world record. Not only will it be amazing to be apart of the Guinness Book of World  Records, but we are actually doing it for a cause. Each volunteer has been asked to bring $5 (or $10 as a family) to donate to Angels for a Cause. This money will be used to send clean drinking water to people in Ethiopia. If you anywhere around you should come join us! To learn more check out: http://www.makeyourmarkduluth.com/

(even if they have already been through this) We all have secrets that we are just bursting to tell someone. Its nice to know someone can think on the same level as you, or likes to do the same things you do. Someone who can make you smile when you feel like your whole world is falling apart. Why do we have friends we don't like? Well you probably didn't have this problem at first. Something since you first became friends has changed.  Or you may have realized something about that person that you hadn't noticed before. Sometimes we are going to have to come to terms that some friends grow apart. Its a part of life. How can I make friends?  I want to start with WHERE you should make friends. Think of something you really like or like to do. Great. Now go- go look up clubs, groups, and teams for that thi...
