possibly going there to study abroad this summer :)
I woke up one morning to hear the birds outside my window and my mother cooking breakfast downstairs. I’ve never cried so much in my entire life. I had been deaf since the age of 8.
Freshman year, there was a crippled girl bound to a wheelchair. For 4 years, she did physical therapy and progressed to crutches. When we graduated a few weeks ago, she handed her crutches to an officer and walked across the entire stage. The applause from the seniors was deafening. She cried the whole way. GMH
Today, I found GMH. After reading all the heartwarming stories, I walked into my room, and tore my suicide journal to shreds. I’m shaking out of happiness. GMH.
Last summer I was working as an assistant wedding photographer in California during the brief period when gay couples could marry there. While working a wedding at the San Fransisco City Hall, I watched two old men in tuxedos help each other up the stairs in order to finally get married after over 30 years together. GMH.
A little girl was dying of cancer and her younger brother had a match for the bone marrow she needed. The doctors told him it was a matter of life and death. After he had the surgery, he asked the doctors how long he had to live. He thought if he gave his bone marrow to let his sister live he would die but he did it anyway. GMH

- We could learn a lot from crayons, some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors but they all have to learn to live in the same box.
- A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour.
- Happiness comes through doors you didn’t even know you left open.

Grand Central Station
will be in a New York state of mind in a few.
Today I spent a good portion of my day planning the next three weeks of my life. It made me feel a wonderful sense of calm; as if at this moment, I know exactly where I am and what I’m doing, a feeling I haven’t felt in a while.
All ra-ra, I bought a $7 Harvard flag in the morning. Then as I was happily walking through the tailgates, a guy from Yale pops out of nowhere, snatches my flag from my hands and runs away. I was THOROUGHLY upset.
Then we won the the game.
…so IN YO FACE terrible, mean Yale boy. Karma’s a b*tch.
(And of course, that’s why the game was won. Because the Yalie stole my flag.)
JUST KIDDING! :)
