Day 120.
I needed some help with some things today and two friends agreed to help out so I'm very grateful for their time and effort. I know others couldn't help cause they couldn't get out, or they had lots of work, or whatever whatever so any help given was greatly appreciated. Thank you for giving up some of your time!

Day 119.
So an away student friend came back for an interview today. He was planning to go back to school after his interview, but because of car problems he has to go back tomorrow. He's a friend of a friend and he's new to church, but he still wanted to come to fellowship which made me :). If I was him, I'd be too scared to go somewhere by myself where I didn't know a lot of people. Our friend was still at school, but he called me to let me know that the friend was coming so that I could look out for him. How sweet!HAHA.

Day 117-118.
I was a bit antsy last night and while it was still late at night and friends that were still up were only up finishing work they had to do, I found comfort from them. They took some time from doing their work to give me some words of advice and reassurance so thank you. I greatly appreciate you.My homeboy texted me yesterday to see if I wanted to visit him at work. When I worked retail, I loved visits from friends and I remember he visited once and we went to eat during my lunch break so I thought I'd return the visit. I told him I would, but after thinking about it he suggested I go today instead since he would be busy with a lot of customers (because of the good weather) and so he wouldn't be able to talk to me and he didn't want me to be by myself. So considerate! That's why we friends. Anyway I went today earlier than the time I told him so pretty much right when his shift starts. I texted him earlier in the day to tell him about my antsyness so he wanted to talk and make sure I was doing okay. He's cool with the coworker he was changing shifts with and talked her into working a bit more so he could talk to me. He treated me to some food even though I offered to pay and took his break from a 6 hour shift even before he started his shift to talk to me. Thanks :)
HAHA.

Day 116.
AWESOME weather today. Tad bit hot. I would sweat by just walking around. Oh the joys of sweating so easily! Saw Viola today and it was a bit weird since she wasn't bundled up as usual. I chat with her a bit and gave her a little money to help. My last break was unproductive like all the others before and I'm a bit uneasy because I have group projects, but not uneasy enough. I still can't get myself to do it. So a friend and I made a deal to check up on each other to make sure we were doing our work. We took some time to procrastinate together before, but it's time to buckle down. Not doing a good job, but better than I would be if I wasn't being kept accountable. Thanks for the help!HAHA.

Day 115.
Found out about this through a friend and thought it was a really good idea. There's been a war going on in Uganda for 25 years. The Lord's Resistance Army, have been terrorizing the innocent people in Central Africa and in 2005, they were driven out of northern Africa. Since then, they've been attacking isolated communities who virtually have no way of communicating with the outside world. The cries of the innocent victims go unheard. During the 25 hours, people around me have been there for me to explain why I'm not talking or to just talk for me. I always forget how well my brother knows me cause we're rarely serious with each other, but he knows how to read me. Especially when I'm in a foul mood. I got pissed off at dinner so I just stopped talking to prevent me from saying something stupid. He was able to cool down the situation because he knew what was going in my head and settled the issue. Thanks for that.
HAHA.

Day 113-114.
Helped my momma and some of the kiddies wrap Easter eggs yesterday. My friend also came back to celebrate another year of birth so I helped with the planning and getting. It was FUN FUN.
Happy Easter! Helped one of the girls with last minute fix ups before the show so that she had it down. I'm proud of all the girls. They did so well!

Day 110-112.
Had a shorter day yesterday - woopwoop! When I got home, the girl from church that my brother tutors was there and her sister was there too. I was getting ready to make lunch so I asked everyone if they wanted to eat too some did. Decided to make some good vegetarian spaghetti and apparently it smelled good so I was happy haha. Got to hangout a bit with the sister and my cousin so it was fun. Nothing like spending time with each other and food!I'm always reminded of simple acts of love when people think about me when I can't eat meat. Stayed at a friend's house with some friends and while planning what to make for lunch and dinner, everyone was extremely considerate about my not eating meat. I know it's a hassle so thanks for never going alskjdaisdlaksdmlakjsd when adjustments need to be made.
I witnessed how caring my friend is. This friend's friend, who's a new Christian, doesn't have a home church so my friend wanted to bring him to church and connect him to people so that when they come back from school, he'd have a church to go to. So he's been bringing his friend to church and connecting him to people in fellowship so that he feels welcomed. Just thought that was really sweet.
HAHA.
