kiwi

i know this video was a youtube sensation about 4 years ago but i saw it again and i just love it.



his whole life he was making preparations for his dream. and even though he would only live his dream once, he still found a way to make it happen. such a touching animation.

a walk to the lake

siren

on july 9th, i was hanging around with some friends and from their backyard we saw a huge mountain of smoke rising beyond a few trees and houses. the street across from their adjacent street had a house on fire. a few of us adventurous ones walked down and were directly across from it. i was just praying that everyone was safely out of the house and that the firemen would be able to put it out before the houses next to it caught on fire.

it was scary... i mean that fire was blazing. the pictures aren't that great because i only had my cellphone. i saw glass break and something spark. and suddenly as if instantaneously the air was filled with more smoke and after a little while, after my eyes were tearing, i had to go back to the house... the police were telling people to go home too. i smelt like smoke after that.

it was a night... and the ironic part was- my friends and i spent the whole day at a water park and then came home to a house on fire... idk it was just weird.

summer job

so july is almost over... and summer is more than halfway over. not sure how i feel about that. time is flying by way too fast.

this month has been very eventful. so i'm going to probably put up a few posts today.

i'm back at the daycare... for the summer... started about 3 weeks ago. i started working there in my senior year of high school and worked there for 4 consecutive years and when i transferred to rutgers two years ago i've been working only summers. this might be my last summer there... although i have said that about last summer... haha.

here is some cuteness:
