1. I just drank orange juice out of a wine glass.
2. I have hives all over my arms and my chest that keep growing and continue to freak out the people around me.
3. My mouth tastes like red licorice and I a little bit feel like I am going to vomit.
4. An other-wordly contraption is keeping my "Baby Buddha" figurine on my key chain because it keeps falling off, just one more sign of imbalance in my life.
5. I have a Seattle Pacific key chain and I am attending University of Washington next fall.
6. There is an order form for a 2009 Senior Class picture on my desk and I do not think I am going to order one. After all, it would be a picture of nearly 200 strangers.
7. On Saturday, my boyfriend of two months made lamb, chicken and tofu kabobs, couscous, tsatziki and hummus for 15 of my relatives at a beach house in Gearheart.

The point of this post is to give you a glimpse into my increasingly random life that I have a difficult time making sense of. Somedays I want to be a person who travels around the world, authors several books, speaks in front of large audiences and uses her influence to change lives. And then other times, like today, I just want to be a person who laughs a lot and enjoys time spent with people and savors a cup of tea in the morning and who can't wait to see the sunshine each morning. Life, where have you gone?
