wow.
what an absolutely awesome photo.

something to be thankful for...
i have good friends. thanks guys.

strange days...
this morning, i woke up to claps of thunder. a couple of moments later, it started pouring. although it rained only for a few moments, the sky still has this murky haze.

earthquake weather?

law school, maybe?
i'm trying to think of what i want to do with myself and i'm starting to lean towards law. i don't think i could EVER do lawyer-law.. not the court stuff--judges scare me. but more like, legal studies and policy analysis.. non-profits, maybe? all i know is that i want to be in some kind of field where i can help people in need. back when i was at csuh i was thinking of doing this sort of thing (social service) but i changed my mind once i got to ucla. heh.. kinda funny now that it seems i'm just back where i started.

so i guess it's back to the books. more standardized tests.. lsats.. dammit.

this is sea ranch:



so is this:



see why i miss it?

oh another thing.
i found out that people actually read this thing. whoa.. weird...

have you ever had a dream that you wished was real?
i had one of those the other night. it felt so real, so tangible.. i could remember distinct little things. i wished it could've gone on, and on...

but i woke up..

the clock read 3:00 am and i realized that i had been dreaming the entire time. sometimes.. i wish.. i wish...

but. i guess not.

times of refreshing.
fourth of july was a nice little retreat, but now it seems that i'm back to the same old, same old. i'm back to being exhausted and tired all over again.

give me a star-filled sky and the sound of the ocean.. *sigh*, yeah that sounds nice.

oy yoy!
they changed blogger, and blogger looks weird.. WEIRD.

.. fourth of july weekend ended up pretty good. jennifer invited us up to her home in sea ranch, a little town just south of medicino on highway one. it was beautiful--coastal views, fresh air and a wonderful starry sky in the evening. it was a welcome retreat, and it reminded me of just how much i love the ocean. watching the waves go in and out, the feel of wet sand, the sound of ocean.. i missed it and didn't even realize it.

i think i told jo once that even though the beaches in southern california are more fun to swim in, the beaches in northern california are more beautiful. and they are, there's just something about it...

pretty wonderful. heh.

i want to go back.
