OK, so...

Apparently, I am getting on my cousins nerves. So I will write before she decides to fly up here and kick my butt. I really have nothing to write about, so it may just be very random.
Yesterday I just got back from Chicago. We had a wedding to go to down there. Everybody was there! and I mean EVERYBODY!!! It was my moms cousins wedding. Emma, Chloe, Chase and I were all in the wedding. Chase played the biggest role. He was the Ring Bearer. Then Emma, Chloe, and I (and partially Hannah) passed out programs at the beginning and bubbles at the end. It was pretty fun.
After the wedding, we rode a trolley to the lake. There the wedding party took pictures by Buckingham Fountain. We just wanted to go for the ride.
Then the trolley took us to the reception. We got there about an hour after everybody got there.
The next day, we went to the Grooms Mothers House. There we had brunch and hung out with alot of people.
Then, unfortunatley, the lovely weekend had come to an end. We had to leave. Let me tell you... it sucked! I did NOT want to go.
Then today i REALLY didn't want to go to school.
Ugh. Everthing kinda stinks right now. I have these like waves of emotions. One minute I may be really happy, then the next moment, I may be crying.
Today at school, in the hallway, I just started crying. So i went into the bathroom for a minute to wipe my face. I didn't want to be late to class, so I had to hurry. Oh well.
That's it for now.

My name's Cait. I'm a friend of your aunt Katie's and uncle John's. We were all in the Peace Corps together in Bangladesh. I saw John this weekend and mentioned that I'd been reading your blog (through his) so he sent me your direct link. I really love some of the things that you wrote about Katie. She was such a special woman. I feel really lucky to have known her. The second town she lived in in Bangladesh was called Rangpur. It was the closest town to me (about 2 hours) so I came down and had sleepovers at her house whenever I could. We had a lot of fun together.
Thanks for sharing your memories and thoughts of her.
I think about John and your family a lot. I hope you're all taking care of yourselves.
best,

So baby you my only love; the only love I want is yours. Nobody is going to take me away from you, and I hope it's the same for you. :)

If the person you are talking to doesn't appear to be listening, be patient. It may simply be he has a small piece of fluff in his ear.

You can close your eyes to the things you do not want to see, but you cannot close your heart to the things you do not want to feel.

"In the book of life, the answers aren't in the back." - Charlie Brown

Dance as though no one is watching you. Love as though you have never been hurt. Sing as though no one can hear you. Live as though heaven is on earth.

"The storm starts when the drops start dropping. When the drops stop dropping, then the storm starts stopping" - Oh Say Can You Say, Dr. Seuss book

I've finally found what life's really about. Hanging on when your hearts had enough, and giving more when you want to give up.

You're lucky you know, right? - Emma

Life is short, Break the Rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably, And never regret anything that once made you smile.

Elve's are all jacked up on maple syrup!

Laughter on one's lips is a sign that that person deep down has a pretty good grasp of life.

You don't stop laughing because you grow old. You grow old because you stop laughing - Michael Pritchard

Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It's the transformation that's troublesome - Isaac Asimov

Madness is like gravity, all it takes is a little... push - The Joker

Maybe people are younger when they sleep - Ponyboy Curtis(:

In order to live, we must let go. Forget her hearts not beating. Her spirit IS here. - Emma.

Look beside you. Shes trying to hold your hand. - Emma.

"Right now, you and me here, put together entirely from atoms, sitting on this round rock with a core of liquid iron held down by this force of this trouble you call gravity, all the while spinning around the sun at 67 thousand miles an hour and whizzing through the Milky Way at 600 thousand miles an hour in a universe that very well may be chasing its own tail at the speed of light.. and amidst all this frantic activity, fully cognizant of our own imminent demise-which is a very pretty way of saying we all know we're going to die-we reach out, to one another, sometimes for the sake of vanity, sometimes for reasons you're not old enough to understand yet, but a lot of the time we just reach out, and expect nothing in return. Isn't that strange? Isn't that weird? Isn't that weird enough?" - Martian Child.
