Defenders Unite!

I felt the need to delete that last post.

It's funny how things work out. I am strangely happy about things (at this present moment in time) and have the best friends in the world :)

Last night I almost posted the lyric
Bad news never had good timing...
But you know what??? Sometimes it does, you just don't know it. Things really do happen for a reason, and you learn from it all.

The next lyric says:
Then the circle of your friends will defend the silver lining.

So true, John, yet again!!!

Our lasts Ecuador meeting is in 45 minutes. 11 days!

Homework is done. My hair looks good. Life is pretty sweet.

OUT!

Gotta getaway from here,
Gotta get away
From all these thinkers,
Drinking up my thoughts again.

I’M PLANNING MY ESCAPE! YAY! I just wish I spoke Spanish… or Caitlyn.

Destination? If all goes according to plan, Peru for a part of the summer through Seattle Community College’s Global Impact program. I am no longer (home)bound by my heart (not saying I regret that, because I don’t at all!). This goes beyond just my desire to go abroad – I can go to sleep with a clear mind and wake up thinking about… anything else. I didn’t think it was possible, but maybe those truths&lies I had to tell myself are becoming all true. What progress :)

Most of all, at this present time, I want to get away from the ignorant, self-righteousness, and culturally insensitive SUCON (the lovely SU College of Nursing). Fine, I shouldn’t say the whole SUCON is guilty, but one person in particular. What happened to justice? My blood has been boiling since Saturday night but the thought of leaving is making it better. I’m looking for a retreat center to live at for free, like what a special friend is doing in Ireland this summer… lucky!

Ecuador countdown: 15 days!!!

Flickr!

Today was terrible but I slept in so I am wired at 2 AM... it’d be nice for this day to just end. I’m at home in Federal Way and America’s Best Dance Crew just came on so I get to watch Quest so maybe it will be okay.

Anyway, please take a look at my flickr account! (click that now!) I spent my day playing with photoshop. I’ve fallen in love with photography again... my goal is to get better at it :) Maybe lent?

From Folklife 2008, called “Love”

I see 3 types of love in there (puppy love, literal puppy love, family)… and a buttcrack.
