No animal parts" cat pieces go in the other bin 3. we use really old bones in practicum and half the pieces are broken off or worn down from being passed through so many students' hands over the decades. supposedly some of them were donated from the bodies of old professors. that is love. 4. i admit i study hard because i want to rank at the top. but my classmates are awesome and i love how we help each other. i will do what i can so that they learn & understand, and they do the same for me. i genuinely want them to win too. whatever fields we go into at the end of all this, you will make me better at what i do # Saturday, September 12, 2009 ( 5:47 PM ) shut up christine # Monday, September 07, 2009 ( 4:11 PM ) shut up christine let it burn the day i left for india, kuo came to my house and dropped off a cd with Your Ex-lover is Dead by the Stars, on it it begins with this line: When there's nothing left to burn, you have to set yourself on fire. this quote has been on my mind often, as of late.today my horoscope said (yes i read my horoscope): What remains is worth keeping. i'm noticing the patterns and cycles in my life, conflicts i have over and over, mistakes i repeat again and again. asking myself what am i not learning the first time around. trying to dig out the roots so that new things can grow i'm terrified that we are making a huge mistake. again. and if it blows up in my face i know you'll say i told you so. you told me so. i don't know what's going to happen but we are willing to risk everything and walk into the fire together so that we can keep whatever is left, even if the pieces are all broken # ( 10:16 AM ) shut up christine from Charity Focus' DailyGood If we cannot see how what we are doing or not doing is contributing to things being the way that they are, then logically we have no basis at all, zero leverage, for changing the way things are -- except from the outside, by persuasion or force. --Adam Kahane # Tuesday, September 01, 2009 ( 11:01 PM ) shut up christine today was one of those days i came out of a night shift, went home to take a shower, spent 12 hours at school, then went straight to the next night shift which brings me here. i am exhausted but i wanted to mark this occasion during the break before my last class i walked to a small empty coffee shop the old man working at the counter mentioned that i looked really tired, and when i ordered a cup of coffee he didn't let me pay and then he brought me a muffin, to give me energy to get through my class, he said. so much kindness. i will remember this whenever i'm having another one of those days, which will probably happen regularly for the next few months what he did for me today is what's going to get me through it # |
