confusion and inadequacy.
currently suffering from the both of these.
confusion: not sure what i’m going with my life after JVC this year. i though i had my mind made up, but then i finally got an email response from a volunteer program in Rwanda. very, very promising and appealing.
inadequacy: the most simplest things i do are always being corrected.

just what i needed.
facebook’d my adriennemae.
she commented.
i commented.
i flip tabs to go to tumblr, and have two notifications:
she reblogged a screen-cap of our convo a few days ago that i posted.
she messaged me.
just made my month, warmed my heart, and brought a genuine smile to my face.
wondering what a best friend was supposed to be like? look to her.
oh how i miss her.

a reflection.
i have been thinking about Jamaica a lot lately.
i have no idea what the trigger was that unleashed this flood of memories from my time there.
i miss it so very much.
i miss the food, the music, the culture.

i miss the school children from kingston, as they’d come home from school and play...

the love makes me speechless.
went to Freedom House to celebrate January birthdays at 1:30pm
it was supposed to be from 2:00-3:00pm.
didn’t start until almost 4:00pm—typical.
stayed until 6:45pm.
spent about three hours dancing and singing to classic American rock songs (e.g. “Born In The USA”, “Stairway to Heaven”, “Hey Jude”, some Jimi Hendrix, etc.), followed by our House...
