I realized last nite a few things on how much I take advantage of things. I take advantage my family. I take advantage of my friends. I take advantage of having a good meal everyday, having a roof over my head, having fresh water to drink, having a bed to rest in, all the clothes I have, the pointless electronics that I have, everything. It hit me so much harder because I know what it's like to not have any of that or be so far away. I wish I could realize to just be happy and appreciate all that I have, all that I don't need, and all the things that will be.
So today in EMT class we went over drowning victims...I really couldn't think of anything, but Laurie throughout the whole time. My teacher is well, I dont know how to explain it, but half way through her lecture she totally went, "if you're going to drown yourself make sure you do it in fresh water and cold water. The colder the water the better." It pissed me off and I could only just picture her, lying, lying motionless in the water. I miss you Laurie

I don't know how to, but i'm sure that Barb would be more than happy to get you a copy, otherwise, i'll have them when you return home and you can copy them... i could try to ask my friend to copy them... i'll keep you posted.
