| "We are made for community, for togetherness, for family, to exist in a delicate network for interdependence. Truly, 'it is not good for man to be alone,' (Genesis 2:18) for no one can be human alone. We are sisters and brothers of one another whether we like it or not and each one of us is a precious individual. It does not depend on things such as ethnicity, gender, political, social, economic, or educational status - which are all extrinsic. Each person is not just to be respected but to be revered as one created in God's image. To treat one such as if they were less than this is not just evil, which it is, is not just painful, as it frequently tends to be for the one at the receiving end of whatever discrimination or injustice is involved - no, it is verifiably blasphemous, for it is to spit in the face of God."
- Desmond Tutu in No Future Without Forgiveness

| Wow, I haven't updated in a very very long time.
Here are my future plans so far:
Living in the Girls Ministry House next year
484 N. Lemon St., Orange
I am trying to get a job as a teller at a bank this summer. Since I would like to be in the financial field. I figure I might as well get some experience.
I hope finals are going well for everyone.
Hope to see you all soon! |

| My mom called me today and told me she found a house for me to live in next year. I was so excited. She said she would sign the lease now and then see what I thought later. I agreed because I know that houses go quickly in Orange. She sent me some pictures and asked what I thought. What do you think my reaction was?
