just chillin

Just thought I'd write to my mom who is the only one who actually reads this shit save my sister who is unavailable for the next three or 4 weeks. Anyways, it has been a good day. I worked today watching Lexi and Ryann, and it was cool. Lexi is gonna be harder than I thought. She is extremely smart. I am going to have to pay attention to what she says and what I say. Ryann was really cool. We are going to Little Five Points tomorrow. Markus cooked. I came home and Tamara cooked too. Nolan was here. We are chillin. Life is good today. I am so excited for my parents to come. I know my mom is mad at me because I keep calling. I can't leave her alone. I can't wait until they get here. They get to stay at my house!!!!!!!!! Then, my brother emailed me today and said that he was thinking about coming to Costa Rica on his way back from Argentina. That would be so cool. Like Ice Cube said, "Today was a good day!"

espanol

So I am trying to learn Spanish. Partly inspired from my brother who is now in Argentina, partly because I am going to Costa Rica, but mostly because I want to. I also met a beautiful Mexican painter named Jose who is helping me a little bit. (I will post a picture as soon as I have access to a camera cord-thanks Paul....) I have no one to practice with. Also, it is uncomfortable for me to speak Spanish when I am not sure how much I am pronouncing things correctly or if it is even the right word. It is kinda frustrating. Rosetta Stone is helping me some. I am not getting my hour of Spanish in everyday, but hopefully being in the environment and around people that are willing to help me will work.

friends

It is amazing what you figure out the older you get. How many times your mom was actually right, why you do the quirky things that you do. This post is dedicated to Julie. She is amazing. She is my best friend x 343905702397 :) I love her so much. We have been best friends for damn near 10 years! That is the longest relationship that either of us has ever been in. We have been there through ups and downs of all kinds, real serious ones. She is just so wonderful to me. There are times when I don't like her and when she can't stand me either, but her tricks don't fool me :) She is always going to be there for me just like I will always be there for her. It is the definition of unconditional love. She is probably one of the few relationships I have that are true. She accepts me for me; I mean EXACTLY the way I am. No one else does that. I feel like i could murder someone and she would still be there for me. I love you girl, and no matter what you decide, you will still be my best friend.

fear

i have figured out what i am afraid of.......... being alone. Thanks, Keith, for being there for me. mom, I want to come home again. i love my true friends, and you you know who you are.

from flint

well, Flint has been nice. I wasn't supposed to be here, but here I am. I hope that my grandpa makes it back from his trip out west in time for me to see him. It has been nice hanging out with my sister, Anne. I just wish Mary was here to laugh with. Paul still has his head in the clouds, but he will be fine. Joe is set to find him a latina chic for the next 10 years..... til she is americanized. Basically, things are back to normal. Joe just bought a laptop for Mary. Blah Blah Blah. Joe is going to show me the rest of the stuff. less than 2 months til Costa Rica!!!!!!!
