cloud nine.....

random: i can see myself sitting at the desk with a stack of newspapers in front of me.....staring at the business section.

Things i get a kick out of:
*fros on azns
*hummers
*bald teens
*the word poop
*hc tickets in the form of a keychain
*a guy named Tian at UW that looks like Yao ming (dude....u gotta see.. this picture on steeni's site of him and steve by the miget door.. talk abt look alikes) check it out: http://community.webshots.com/photo/92316506/92316732gVltaf

jack called today! woot. It's kewl how people keep in touch. Every year you have those people who write k.i.t in your yearbook, but how many of them actually follow through with what they write? Keeping in touch definitely has to be a mutual situation. Do you ever feel like you really wanna keep in touch with this person, but you dont know how they would feel about you emailing or snailing them? Or maybe you use to keep in touch with this person but you've lost touch and you dunno if they'd think you're odd or even if they remember you if you contacted them? How do you know that you're not both feeling the same way and both parties just arent doing anything about it? Keeping in touch is simple, take the initiative cuz it's rewarding.

I have this friend whom i've kept in touch with since i discovered email. I remember back in the day when we use to play basektball and handball together every weekend. I remember she was there when i learned to ride my bike. I remember i was there when she moved into town. Now, she's a college junior and we've kept in touch over the years. and the kewlest part is seeing how we've both grown and changed, seeing how each of us go through those milestones in life. talk about awesomeness.

i just really appreciate how she always takes time out of her busy schedule to email me. Even a simple "i'm doing good." and that's it, email always brings a smile to my face. Every time i move away from somewhere i always wonder how long will we be able to keep in touch? will we even keep in touch? Looking at my mom, i realize that keeping in touch is all a matter of interest level. She has these 4 really close friends. Maybe they only see each other once every 10 years, but they always send each other christmas cards , and they go at all costs to find out where the other is currently living when they've lost touch for some time. surprisingly, the christmas cards always arrive at our mailbox, every year without doubts.

i think it'll be awesome growing up, living in my own home, and when i go to the mailbox every holiday season, i'll have mail from my friends whom i've kept in touch with over the years.
