photos_here_on_my_desk megan i wanted to bring with me photos that meant the most to me it's interesting really, i have a picture of my family, i have a picture of me hayley and rachel, and i have a picture of me and brendan it's so typical of me to compartmentalize my life. i have my different compartments and i have the important pieces i keep there, that no one can take away i dont' even know how to describe how much i've learned about these places_within_me i've learned to expand, even if just a bit. i've learned to be patient, to be quiet (of course, i'm still learning. this is ongoing) i've learned to not take for granted those things which i've compartmentalized. rachel's so far away and it's so different. thinking ahead to this summer without her will be something i will be incredibly saddened over. brendan's away from me too. i yearn to be near him again, and i find myself learning patience the most with him. my family... they mean so much to me. i almost feel as though a part of me were missing when i don't see them, when i don't eat at grandma's on sundays. it makes me wonder how many years i've taken it for granted. it makes me wonder what else i take for granted now. these pictures represent only part of me though. and i've learned that as well, there is much more to me than what's on paper. i'm finding out 060223 what's it to you? who go blather from
