she decided to start living the life she imagined
There are plenty of things that I've never done, or rarely do, because I feel uncomfortable, or just haven't gotten around to it, or I haven't had the time to save up for, but I do think would be really wonderful.
Like . . .
Skydiving
Traveling to new places
Blowing things up with nitroglycerin
Waking up often to watch the sunrise
Backpacking across Tibet and Nepal
Going ice camping
Climbing at Smith Rock
Sneaking into Sasquatch
Learning to bake pastries
Playing my music for more people
I drove with Tina, Emily, and Summer to Spokane and back for a concert, and we talked in the car about certain goals we had, far in the future, or even for next week, next quarter, or next year. Things like getting into law school, PA school, art school, getting a job or an apartment in Portland or the East Coast. We talked about hitch-hiking, or driving across the U.S. using only public transportation! And ideas like that tickle my soul, thinking of all the stories you'd have to share, both disappointing and exciting, stimulating, stretching, uncomfortable, and/or liberating. And its moments like these that fill me with contentment: how wonderful people are, and how life is full of possibilities, and how every person could teach you something, if only you let them.

I can't tell you how happy I am to have friends that inspire me with new ideas and fill my soul with energy and peace! Thanks for coming with us to Tri-cities yesterday! Love TINA
I wouldn't need no wiskey, I wouldn't need no wine....I wouldn't need much of anything if Emaline were mine! It was so nice of Noah to sing that.
I don't know who Noah is.. but he's witty.
Cute song.
Reading this post reminded me that I was planning on physically writing down some solid goals this break.
Its true.

I wish I could hang out with you girls more often. I would love it
