The Lady and the Cigarette Butts

Hey everyone, just wanted to type a quick message and say All is Well! I've been extraordinarily busy with assignments lately, so I've tried to not have too much fun. It's been difficult. A little bit of dancing and playing pool this last Saturday, and I'm not sure if I mentioned the old army bunker I got to explore. Pretty sweet! Also I got a "NEW2ME" Bike. It's this great rusty old pink thing that belongs to the 60's. I'll have to post a photo! With the opportunities I now have because of this bike, I couldn't help but bond to it!

I Really Need your help. You probably already know this about me, but I can be a space case, and have a tendency to loose or forget things. With that said, since I have been in New Zealand, I have lost everything of value by now. Luckily most things have returned, but on the other hand, I am apparently beginning round #2. So far so good, I just need to find my house key. Please if you have any ideas on how to fix this I would REALLY APPRECIATE IT!

Well I keep it short and sweet- Midterms. Here is a story I wanted to share with you:

The Lady and The Cigarette Butts

I was at the bus stop today and I watched a woman as she dawdled around picking up smoshed cigarettes off the ground. I was really curious, and thinking she might have been cleaning them up. Nonchalantly, she filled her pockets, and sat down on bench beside me. She pulled out a small piece of paper, and one by one carefully poured their contents onto this paper. After about six, she licked the end, rolled it up, and stuck it in her mouth.

Take it for what it's worth. She was not poorly dressed, did not look unusual in any way, just an average woman addicted to nicotine. I suppose that I just wanted to show you someone else's perspective.
