Oops!

I kind of forgot about the blog world for a little while and stumbled across some wonderful new blogs to read! This was a pretty busy weekend. My older brother graduated from college yesterday! It was such a beautiful day. Perfect weather...well, maybe a little hot ;) but not bad at all. It's crazy to think that will be me in two years! I'm not too sure how i feel about that... one of the teachers that spoke there gave an incredible speech about how it is okay to do things that scare us - and to step out of the world we have created for ourselves. why is it okay? because we have people who care about us, people who will be there to congratualte us if we succeed and to help us get back on track if we don't. there is never really such thing as a failure when you think about it that way. no matter what, you have great people, and great new chances to either go forward or start fresh. :) pretty fantastic.

tomorrow i start orientation for volunteering! i am SO excited. i can't wait to start working with all of the children with down syndrome. tomorrow is when i start training for the literacy program i am helping with. woo! i'm excited :) it sounds like such a wonderful program. i hope i'm not bad at it :/

i don't exactly know what i feel like writing about tonight... but i just felt like i should update. hah. hmm. well, i'll write some other time this week :) goodnight!
