Hello. As usual, it's been a while since my last entry.

I purchased a condo. Exciting.

I'm still in school. Exciting.

I've realized my life is boring. It is good, but boring.

To remedy this, I'm tentatively planning a trip to the Gaza Strip in late March/early April.

Somebody told me to stick to the real world.

I asked him, "What is the real world?" Here? The Orange bubble?

No, the real world is halfway around the globe. Where people die every day for reasons that we will never completely understand here in America.

I want to see and document this. I want to meet people who are faced with these challenges every day. People who are willing to die for their beliefs and celebrate those who do. People who wake up and are faced with oppression but refuse to lay stagnant.

I don't care if it is dangerous.

If I can bring back a story to share with just one person, I will gladly take the risk.
