i may not always love you but long as there are stars above you

i can feel the seasons changing. my moods are up and down like a long series of arrows, even rearing their ugly heads at work where i am usually good at holding my feelings in because i am so busy i can't feel. but this week has been entirely impossible for me not to walk over to the tissue box to wipe away tears or walk outside to recollect my thoughts. another reason why i know it will soon be fall is because i can't find anything to wear these days, a sure indicator that my groove has been upset because of temperature changes.

in other news, i started playing volleyball with my friends from work this week. and i'm still a bit sore in the quads. with so much time away from the courts, i could not set and i could not get a good pass in. it always went over the net. doh! but it was still fun. the net was lower than the net at the beach during labor day weekend. so for that i was grateful. and it was great having 7 people come out to play.

rhode island? yeah, that waaas fantastic! and if you heard what i did, it wouldn't sound too exciting. but it was because of the bff! seriously. she is the bestest: zee, you are the bestest bff ever! =D how'd those songs work out for you? and the days may be lackluster because i'm going through withdrawal. and refacing reality.

the students are all drama right now. [sigh] that takes a toll on me. i'm worried for them. and i have a feeling this is how my mom always feels for me. i wish i didn't look like i was sad or unhappy; i most definately don't tell her what's wrong.

last night, after an unhappy hour, we went to the gypsy den where this powerful and moving discussion took place. i wanted to set out to plan amazing programs and to help push my students to consider higher education. it was refreshing to discuss what we could do and not just what is wrong. i hate immobility due to frustration. i hope the momentum does not die.

a few of the staff are leaving at the end of the month, and i am quite sad. i know it will be exciting and helpful for them to move on, but i can't help but focus on what it will be like without them. and how i miss them already.

my brother is coming down from the bay tonight. and we'll be hanging out this weekend. i hope i keep busy and stop looking glum. i don't want to put a damper on the festivities.

oh! and i found new fonts that are fun and cute.

you'll never need to doubt it; i'll make you so sure about it
