It has been a while since I updated, but there are reasons! To start, I was part of the first ever USSF (United States Social Forum) and helped with the Runway for peace in the youth tent. It was on Saturday the 30th, and it went ok despite our lack of power for music, fans, and lights. We improvised and it went off with only a few other problems.

Also, during this whole thing my dad was hospitalized because he was bleeding internally and when he "went potty" (as my sister, Victoria, would say). He is out now and they said that he'd be ok, but that he can't eat any kind of nut or seed because they were getting caught in some holes that were in his intestines and colon.

Lastly, school is trying to kill me! My women and religion teacher gave us a 10 page paper that was due on the day of the USSF opening march! Needless to say, mine was not up to par... it was only 7 pages and was half-assed. On the plus side I still made a B on it!

So yeah... I'm not dead after all that! I've just been busy and I hope to not be for the rest of the month so that I can spend some time with Ryun before he moves.

XOXOX,
Amanda
