So I feel really good about myself. Physically I actually feel reall sick, but emotionally good. The Moroccan woman who works at panera was in citibank in the line in front of me and she said hi ( we had spoken briefly in december or something and haven't actually spoken to her since)and we spoke a little bit. She just seemed really sad and lonely, so on a whim on my way walking to the library, i ducked into panera and left a note for her with my phone number, in case she ever wanted to grab coffee. I mean..in the span of our five minute conversation in citibank i found out that she was here alone, lived in harlem had not travelled back home in five years, and she actually said that she tried to spend as much time at work. So I got a call from her when i was at the front of the library and she thanked me and let me know that we would defintley get together sometime. It was sweet, I mean sometimes its nice just to reach out to people randomly I guess...

It also reaffirmed for me the power of friendship, and how lucky I am to be surrounded by such wonderful encouraging people (all right i'm getting into sappy mode sue me...) so yeah thanks!
