Yesterday I got "surprised" for the first time in my life. And I must admit, getting surprised has always been a secret hope of mine, because my birthday is not conducive to it. Before highschool and now NU started, my birthday now hit's that no-no zone of all highschool friends gone at not at college yet. Anyway.

I went sailing with Barney and he took me to dinner afterwards at Joyees, except Krystle, Rachel and Maggie were all there waiting for me. Perhaps the most special part was the picture they gave me. The picture has all of my best friends here at NU that will be here when I come home in the fall of 2007. It is probably the most thoughtful that has ever been done for me, and it makes me cry everytime I think about it. Thank you, guys.

MEIV is the best thing that I ever become involved with. And when I think about China,

it is not the fact that I am going across
the world to live that scares me most.

What scares me most is the fact that I am leaving my MEIV family, because that is what it has become to me.

I do not have a digital copy of the picture, so I will include one of me, Maggie and Rachel. And on of the boyband sensation, 375 Kelvin.
