Its amazing how fast the world moves when your standing still.
A mentally retarded little boy stopped me on the street a few days ago, he told me i needed to smile more and that i should have a wonderful day.
I saw a group of 4 an 5 year olds crossing the street with there teacher, they were asian and black and indian an white. And they were all holding hands and smiling. None of them giving a second thought about holding hands with someone of another race, or even thinking that there friend was different then them, unlike older people who see people who are not like them, an judge immediately. Its crazy how a 4 year old can be more grown up an mature about somethings then even a 45 year old.
I started classes today, and I've never experienced being the minority in a large group of people. It is kinda crazy, but cool at the same time, I'm by far the whitest girl in the school, yet i felt more welcomed an comfortable then i have in any other school before.
I miss oneonta, not the classes and the school part, but my friends.
Manhattan is amazing, i love my job, fall is coming and that makes me soooo happy.
I want to go shopping for fall clothing and i will next week
i cant wait for christmas time an going to the thanksgiving day parade drunk
you should call me to catch up, cause when i call people... i fell like I'm bothering them.
love
