i love my boys.
tonight is the first night of hanukkah. last night i had made some remark about how i would miss lighting the candles with my family, fighting over who gets to light what days. i said i would miss getting presents too, cause this year i hadnt asked for anything, so although its my fault it still feels empty.
today ken and luke spent over an hour going to five different stores finding me a menorah. four of the boys that live in the dorm are on the verge of getting kicked out of housing because they have so many strikes against them. yet they bought me a menorah and we lit the candles indoors. we won't get caught so i suppose its not like theyre really risking their dorm for it, but its still a slight risk. because they would get kicked out. and then we fought over who would light tonight's candles. granted, they being boys and all, they thought i meant wrestling, not a verbal fight. so i beat one of them and lost to another but they still let me pick my night.
and marc and ian were missing for most of the night and when they returned they came bearing a gift.
its rose colored glass that the sealed together with metal( there's a technical term for this but i can't remember it)
and inside was
, which had a reeses inside it.
i don't know what i did to derserve this, when they gave that to me i cried, i admit it.
the whole thing just made me feel loved. not even the objects themselves, just the fact that they would all spend time doing these things.
