This guy I know
He makes me want to wear dresses with pretty things underneath.
He makes me aspire to cook the best meals you could imagine.
He makes me do crazy things like move far away from everyone I know and love.
He makes me think about everything I thought I knew.
He makes me forget that I ever liked any other boys.
He makes me laugh and smile and giggle and grin.
He makes me feel like the luckiest girl alive.
He is coming to visit me this weekend!! =D | | |
| so lee seems to be doing better lately.
in other news, i'm moving to Chicago in September. get jealous. then get over yourself and get excited for me! i'll finally have a normal relationship after 2.5 years of long distance rigmarole. i'm not sure i've ever looked forward to anything so much in my life. but law school still scares the crap out of me.

| so an incredibly close friend of mine is not doing so well right now. his kidneys don't work, and his body rejected his transplant. he's been put back at the bottom of the transplant list because they want to give the kidneys to people who have a better chance of success. the kidney he has left is only working at 20%. he was told he ought to make out his will. he's really struggling right now, but he's keeping up a really fabulous attitude. i admire him so much for that. please if you could pray for him or think good thoughts for him or whatever it is you do, i would appreciate it and i know he would too. he's seen a lot of shit in his life, and he's probably the person most deserving of a better life that i know. i'm sure some of you know who i'm talking about, and it would really mean a lot if you could give him a call or IM or something and let him know you're thinking of him and give him some support. i'll give you his number or screenname privately if you want it. really, please do this.

| It is true that I have been abundantly blessed throughout my life, and
I feel I must serve God by sharing those blessings with others.
It goes beyond that, however. When I look at the world I see many
issues which require change. I also see many people who lack
interest, knowledge, power or funds to make that change. I have interest and
knowledge. I can acquire access to power and funds. Is it
not, then, my duty to act? Serving the public interest is not
what most would call lucrative, but that is only true in a purely
monetary mindset. Each individual has a vocation which
their soul longs to pursue. Finding and acting upon this vocation
provides benefits with which even the largest paycheck could not
possibly compete.
If anyone discourages you from following your heart, listen to your heart all the more.
