This young man has gone through thick and thin, enduring more physical battles than most of us will in a lifetime. The article doesn't do him justice regarding how much his body has been put through. Makes you want to celebrate being alive every day :)

Things which make me go Hmmm #1
So...one thing I have noticed over the past 4 months, is the increase of annoying Facebook statuses. I am not quite sure what the nostalgia is among displaying your emotions allowing your best friend (from 1st grade whom you haven't talked to since 2nd grade and for SURE wouldn't acknowledge on the street but are still facebook friends with them) too see your utmost inner feelings, or if your newborn has an innie or outtie.
Among the list of things which make me go, "Hmmm..."
So and So is "SOO excited because my daughter's umbilical cord fell off and she has an innie..."
"SOOO angry because baby daddy brought son home and he is soo tired and all I
wanted was for him to be well rested for tomorrow."
"Fed up with being ignored and taken for granted"
"SOOOOOOOOOOOOoo excited cuz the BF told me he LOVED me" (for realsies?)
**The now ever so common FML- meaning F* my life.**
Your life is so bad you have to say it in a facebook status? I just don't get it.
ANNNNNNND my ever so favorite republican statuses (dude, get over it already. McCain lost)
"i cant actually finish my soc109 reading b/c i am so enraged by its factual errors and pathetic assualt on democracy that i have actually become physically ill."
" is awaiting the corrination of our new king...er. wait i mean inaguration of a president?"
*note to self...always spell check your fb status...
"millions of americans are suffering under the economy and this auguration is going to be the most expensive of all time. 150 million. nice job dems. nice job."
*Note to self...auguration isn't a word...
*Another note to self: perhaps the INauguration was expensive because of security measures taken for angry republicans such as yourself?
Be happy peeps! Facebook just perpetuates wallowing. Lamesauce. Stop using it as a means of telling the world your emotions. That's what journals, art, and poetry are for...

Spring Break/Thankful/Miss you All
Yo peeps
Wohoo!! I booked my flight to see one of my oldest and dearest friends over Spring Break. SO PUMPED about it. My best guy friend in the world is going too, so that should be a blast. EEEP!! We're looking into skydiving, and for sure going to the Zoo there. Yay!! So lately, as I have been hearing about the crazy amounts of jobs being lost (Macy's just cut 7000 jobs...) and about the people in the economy who are severely suffering, I have felt an immense amount of gratitude for all of you close friends and for the blessings in my life I have been granted. Good friends, a roof over my head, a steady, flexible job, the gift of school (even though student loans are killin me...) food, and the ability to feed my appetite for adventure, and an abundance of other blessings all have made me thankful for everything. My heart hurts for the members of the small community affected by the DHL closeout in Ohio, and for the masses nationwide laid off by retail and small buisnesses. Hopefully our economy will get better with the exit of He Who Shall Not Be Named...
Finally, a giant WOHOO for all of the snow falling in the UK! I can just imagine how much fun it would be to sled anywhere in the village...(Sian...perhaps the hill I fell down numerous times...?). Rachel...your snowman was LOVELY. Kudos to you! Wish I was there hiding behind the flat and pelting you all with snowballs when you leave :) Nate put up a pic of flat 63 all snowy...I see the toilet paper rolls pasted onto the window have increased...
Miss you all SO much, and wish you were here

ps-Sooo, heads up peeps I'll probably be discontinuing this blog and making a private new one only a select few of you will know about because someone is really, really lurkin on this page (40 something times since the end of January...). If you are that person, please stop. This blog is for people who I can't be around while I am at school. Your IP address ends with 22, from the residence halls of the University of Iowa. I really don't want to have to change sites, as I have an established amount of friends out of state or overseas who have access to this site. I have a good idea of who ya are, so knock it off.
