wow, that was a life-changing trip. not only did i learn so much about myself, i also learned a lot about relating to people and about enjoying the freedom that comes with being independent.
not that i am on a rah-rah-grrls kick ass tour, but i know now that this season of single-dom has may tests, rewards, and lessons to be had.
la vie est belle. i am back. seriously.
 
i’ll see london, i’ll see france… i’ll even see dublin & jen (crap, that doesn’t rhyme).
what a difference a few hours can make. its very interesting to me how last year i felt so strongly that this year would be great. i remember thinking “bring on 2007″ so much in 2006. i guess i really felt that anything would be better than 2006 (or 2002, 2003, 2004, or 2005, for that matter). well, 2007 started out in extreme pain. i was almost disappointed, but i kept thinking that great joy could only manifest through such pain.
enter this week.
not only am i getting an opportunity of a lifetime to go to france, my family is moving back to the vancouver area and i was also accepted into UBC. i can’t help but search for a greater meaning or lesson in all of this; there are many.
for now, i am going to enjoy this feeling. revel in every moment. take photos. give hugs. drink cafe au lait et vins rouges. etcetera…
je me sens vachement bien!
pictures to come.
interesting how i need everything and nothing all at the same time.
lately i have been feeling more an more jaded by the randomness of life and my growing ambivalence toward it. looking at these images settled that down.
