I want to see your faces...

... So we should plan another Google Hangout/Skype/whatever video chat thing over break. I''m not going anywhere, so any time except for the 21st, 23rd-25th, and before the 19th ('cause school) works for me. (Although if y'all aren't busy on the 24th and I could see your wonderful faces on my birthday, that would be a happy happy thing.)

REPLY TO THIS POST WITH YOUR THOUGHTS. It's not urgent :)

- Mom

Letters, and Mom is wondering where you all are

I miss you all terribly. I hope you're having a wonderful Thanksgiving break and that the change of seasons is treating you well. I know we've all been busy, and that probably accounts for the rather dire lack of blog posts, but I would still love to know what's going on in your lives! SO everybody reply with THREE random things associated with your life at this moment. Here are mine:

1.) I am so so so so close to being completely applied to college.
2.) NaNoWriMo.
3.) I have less than a month left of not being an adult. Holy shit. I'm so old.

Now the really important part:

I propose that we each post our favorite word/phrase/sentence/part of the letters we wrote ourselves at the end of Kenyon. (Leah and Rami, not sure if you did this...?) Mine was a collection of "remember what it's like to...", so I've pulled out my favorites/the ones I want to share with you:

"Remember this feeling... Remember the dancing shadows on grass. Remember the deafening sound of gravel... Remember what it's like to sit under a clear sky peppered with stars, to feel the ghosts of laughter and funny stories and secrets and beautiful words (and Christmas past). Remember what it's like to feel cared for... to have people understand you just the way you said it, because that was the only way it could be said... Remember what it's like to feel cliche and infinite. Remember what it's like to feel lonely together."

THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING REALLY COOL AND TALENTED PEOPLE THAT STUMBLED INTO MY LIFE <3
