we need sometimes to escape into open solitudes, into aimlessness, into the moral holiday of running some pure hazard, in order to sharpen the edge of life, to taste hardship, and to be compelled to work desperately for a moment no matter what - george santayna

school is ending. tomorrow is my last day of classes until april...headed to teach at outdoor centres. it's an odd bittersweetness. classes have been easy. work sometimes pretty pointless. the people have been great...it's been different for me, going out, hanging out. suddently alone isn't the preferable way to do things...but i know this will only last so long. i'm excited to go back home, to marcos and my dog, my house and my routines there. at the same time, there's something i found here, something intangible, that i am frightened to leave behind. it's a feeling of belonging, of being a part of a community...

it's pretty special, and i am apprehensive to leave it all behind. choice isn't an option, only exploring what is new is.

NEW BEN AND JERRY'S FLAVOR!

it's my most favourite-ist flavor ever.
chocolate and raspberries.
it's a dave matthews band flavor.
proceeds benefit 'lick global warming'
and it's called magic brownies.

i wish ben and jerry's wasn't $5 a pint here in canada. :( can someone send me some!!????!
