| Hi all. Sorry I've neglected xanga! What can I say, I'm a busy gal. Ha.
Weeelllll, I'm at college! That's right, I am sitting here at my desk in my dorm room on the 6th floor of Argo in room 622 at the University of California, San Diego. Yeaaahhh. It's unbelievable.
I'm feelin good. God is good. I do miss home, but I'm doing well! My roommate is great. Her name is Teresa. My suitemate is Natalie and she's great too. Yeeahhh.
I've met a lot, a lot of people and have been doing a lot, a lot of stuff. So if you care to, check it out on my smugmug. (www.didaman.smugmug.com) It's in gallery "ucsd."
Oh... my background pic. Look closely and you can see my name written in cursive. This is the door that leads to graffiti hall. Graffiti hall is this random, useless hallway that leads to absolutely nowhere. Ha. It's been a long tradition for ucsd students to graffiti on the walls there everywhere and anywhere. Sooo... I got to graffiti for the first time. It felt GOOOOD!! I went with my roommate Teresa, and the rest of my floor. There are 57 guys on my floor! 57 guys to 9 girls. What a crazy ratio! Bwahaha. Anyway, this guy named Josh wrote my name right on the door for me. Suh weet!
Ok, peace. Time to go ice skating. O man, all this is great, but actual school starts at the end of this week. O joy! | | |
| "1. The more you care, the more you hurt. That is a true sense of irony. I often see people who don’t seem to care about a lot of “LITTLE THINGS”. Their one true concern is THEMSELVES. Those people always seem to be the happiest on the outside. They tend not to bother themselves with things that may bring confusion to their life. They tend to avoid their problems and never find a way to DEAL with them. If a problem arises in their life, they choose to ignore it. Focus on something else that makes them feel good. They are afraid to deal with their problems. I find it ironic that those that care about others often are the ones who get hurt. You give yourself to others, you give your trust, your love, your confidence and inevitably they let you down. They do something to cause you pain. Since you have taken the time to invest so much of yourself to them, it TRULY HURTS when they let you down. You try to do the right things, you try to take the time to think things through, come up with the proper way to help others… in doing this, you open yourself up to the possibility of pain. I truly respect that. It would be much easier to just do what would make you happy. Look out only entirely for yourself. You don’t have to spend the time and energy thinking things through, worrying about all of the “what ifs”. You never take the time to truly give a piece of yourself unto others. BUT…..why would you not want to give yourself to others. We all have spectacular gifts that we can share with others. It is more work, more worry, and sometimes leads to MORE PAIN……but you took the chance. You put yourself out on the line. I FIND THAT TO BE THE MOST NOBLE ACTION IN ALL THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Because when you put effort into others, when you invest love and trust unto others, you have so much to gain. NEVER, EVER, EVER, be afraid to put yourself “out there” and risk getting hurt. Because the rewards are incredible. You will endure some heartaches and heartbreaks………but the love, trust, and care you can receive far outweighs the pain…….YOU JUST HAVE TO GIVE IT TIME. Life is like the stock market, IT HAS IT’S UPS AND DOWNS, but the good people end up MILLIONAIRES in the end. You may not be a millionaire with money, but you will be a millionaire with the mutual feelings you gain with special people. Never be afraid to have faith in people." -The Storm | | |
| Aw jeez. 
My best friend is not here anymore. Frankfurt, Germany here she comes. She's in the air now as I write this. God bless her. Here ye, here ye everyone... I have no friend like Jasmina Striga. She loves me with a love that is special and deep and able to reach my heart and grab hold of it. I don't understand it but God knows. He knows it all. I am blessed because of her. Ja te volim, German. Oprosti. And I miss you so. (That's the truth.)
And my best bud left today. Little Andrew. (I'm gonna miss ya bud!) He made me a slideshow. It was suhh weet. We go back all the way to 2nd grade ya know. It was the saddest thing ever watching the Elias pull out of St. George this afternoon. Sad like it was when I looked over my shoulder to watch the German as we walked opposite ways this morning at the airport.
Tears.
I'm done here.
Peace. To you and me. | | |
