This poem was written by the beautiful women of WYSE (Women and Youth Supporting Each Other) during my last year as a mentor. All the mentors got a framed copy of it and it's sitting next to my tv in my room. I just wanted to share it because I'm feeling a little inspired.

Strength

lies in her eyes
behind the tears she cries
in the injustice she defies
and without asking why
she makes that sacrifice
by her own device
makes the world look twice
and under her wing strengthen ties
uplifting others with the hope she provides
she and many others touch millions of lives
their strength we seek to emulate
we are the women of wyse

So I've really, really, really been wanting to get cute colorful rainboots since last year but I think I didn't get them because the rainy season was almost over when I thought about getting them. Just a random thought. I've also been bugging my parents to get a dog. I've been wanting to get one since I can't even remember but I couldn't get one because I was way too busy and poor haha. But now, I'm at home so it's easier to have one. I either wanted a yorkie or a maltese because they're so weetle yes they are they're so very weetle *in a baby voice* haha.

I'm in love with the song "Just Like Heaven" by The Cure and Katie Melua and Taking Back Sunday right now. Haha yes, I'm in love with all three versions. They've been showing Just Like Heaven on HBO and I just can't not watch it everytime. Haha I'm such a girl.

I really, really, really wanted to see Tyrone Wells perform at the Troubadour tonight but I had no one to go with *tear*. It's your fault Pam. Haha. Did you know he was UCLA graduate? Apparently my sister "knew" him before I did. Ugh wutever. I think I'm in love with him.

I bought the first season of Grey's Anatomy and after I finished watching it I couldn't wait to get season two. So I rushed to Walmart because I figured that's where it would be cheapest but it was $48. Mayn. I really need a job. Obviously, I didn't get it. I'd just have to wait till my birthday or sumtin. *sigh*

So, I think I've thought it through. I'm not gonna take it. Long story. But I really have thought it through. One might say I've wasted all this time, you know, one minute thinking I want one thing but then the next minute I don't, and just completely not knowing what I want in life blah blah blah. But I disagree. I think I really needed all this time to figure out what I want and where I see myself in the future. I think I'm pretty confident with my decision. Okai, scratch the "I think" and "pretty". I'm confident with my decision. I hope.

My room is going through a major renovation. Well, not really. I'm just putting new furniture to make it look like how I wanted it to be in the first place. I'll post pictures when it doesn't look like a trash dump in here anymore.

David and Rona, just get it over with and have sex already. Haha no? Just me? Okai.

I miss you roomie. I'm sad I don't know what your blogs mean anymore. Like at all. Well, except for "Maybe next time." Haaaaha.

I miss Liwanag and PASS people. I shall come back soon when all this job hunting madness ends.

Can I just say that Jury Duty can suck my ass?!?! Jury Duty can suck my ass!!! I have other important matters in life that I need to deal with than go to this. Ugh I'm so annoyed.

I think I should sleep now.

I'm good. Better than last week. I can almost see the light.

Praying for everyone who's going through stuff. It all works out in the end. Just trust.

I should really listen to myself more.
