#1: I suck at blogging regularly.
#2: I want to be arrested for civil disobedience.
#3: I want to go to grad school. Loyola has a Magis program where I can live in an intentional community and get my MSW fo free! Wash U in St. Louis also has some scholarships... Ayy!
#4: I got to go to an Alabama Arise meeting; a lobbying group made up of 150 organizations who decide on what legislation to lobby for and which issues benefit the poor. It was awesome; and I got to meet individuals who have made worlds and worlds of change already on their own. It was so neat to be around that much passion, I felt like a bum, but a really excited bum :)
#5 I am looking into a life as a Jesus loving Quaker. For reals. They love peace and justice and all those good things, but (almost) more importantly, they're hilarious. Their official website states that:
We mostly don't dress like the man on the box of oats anymore, and today we hardly ever call people "thee."

Gotta love it. I'm going to check out a Quaker meeting on Sunday.
Peace,

"Peace is not the product of terror or fear. Peace is not the silence of cemeteries. Peace is not the silent result of violent repression. Peace is the generous, tranquil contribution of all to the good of all. Peace is dynamism. Peace is generosity. It is right and it is duty"
