happy independence day
I used to think that the 4th of July was really over-hyped-up. But I
don't anymore. Independence is a HUGE deal no matter what country you
are in. And fireworks are the best and most beautiful chemical
reactions to witness. There is nothing extraordinary about my life
except the ordinary stuff. Today my mom and I took hibisucus leaves and
ground them up into an herbal conditioner, and I don't know how well it
worked, but I loved being with my mom. And whenever I fall asleep on
the couch my dad covers me with a blanket and lies next to me on the
floor. The henna on my hands is slowly but surely fading away. If Katie
is up to it, maybe we will bake a really awesome cake for tomorrow
night's party.
