Hey, look at this one. I'm smiling, sitting on Queen Anne Hill, realizing that although its been rough and that it will continue to be rough and that other people may be able to help me and that one day I'll be able to help myself, and all that, well good god, this is a fucking beautiful place.

I think what I enjoy most about my life is that it's moving. Pauses are welcome. Slowing down to gape out the passenger seat at the scenery is a must. Sometimes I demand the driver pull over. I hope to meet the world and be accepted, help out the people who yearn.

i have purple shoes!

Surrounded by coffee, tea and water, working at 7:30 am on the same day I have class until 10 pm doesn't seem so bad. Although, I don't know how long I'll be able to keep the pace. But I'm gonna try.
