i miss them



kiani suggested to me one day:
"kuulei how bout we try this...one day you can hang out with your friends but the next day you have to hang out with me. we have to take turns. i dont see you anymore."

i about cried.

what to do now

i got my answer
not sure what it means...
"Patience"

patience for what?
a yes?
a no?
don't wanna tell me?
secret?

i obviously can't have a straight answer right now
i have to be patient
for the answer
or for what's supposed to happen

so i am.
waiting
and writing about waiting

it'll all work out
somehow
sometime

Things for me

My body chose a great week to be sick and miserable:
A busy(stressful) week of working, concert planning, media developing, homeworking and...not-really-sleeping. Now it's finally over.

I finally feel better tonight.

I've been writing lists on scrap papers around the house of things I want to learn and do and experience and make and be happy about.

This post is more just a reminder to myself.
In no order.

• run every day
• be a pro at intense jumprope
• learn to breakdance
• choreograph a few
• make a memory book with my family
• make a montage of Planet Earth pics i've collected
• make another dance video
• organize my room - books, papers, pictures, decor, everything
• blog more
• send packages to friends far away
• make, send baby gifts to all the new mommas out there
• make a youtube series
• play ultimate frisbee
• hike every week
• go to the beach
• learn sign language
• dance
• dance
• dance
• dance

They're just things for me
to think about
to love
to accomplish.

forever a child



don't ever feel like you have to give up fun for grown-up things.

Grown--ups like numbers. when you tell them about a new friend, they never ask questions about what really matters. they never ask: 'what does his voice sound like?" "what games does he like best?" "does he collect butterfrlies?" they ask: "how old is he?" "how many brothers does he have?" "howmuch does he weight?" "how much money does his father make?" only then do they think they know him. if you tell gorwn-ups, "i saw a beautiful red brick house with geraniums at the windows and doves on the roof..." they won't be able to imagince such a house. you have to tell them, "I saw a house worth a hundred thousand francs." then they exclaim, "what a pretty house!" [The Little Prince, p 10]
