- I had a classmate named Blossom. My childhood best friend's niece's name is also Blossom. It's a beautiful name. My flowers have blossomed/bloomed and i love it! Makes me happy.
- Pink also makes me so happy. Got a pink gift bag today, with the gift inside wrapped in pink. You should have seen me grinning from ear to ear like a Cheshire cat. I don't know what made me happier, the actual gift or all the pink. I'm such a girl.
- Friends....I've had many come and go. The first one was a difficult experience. Now? Not so much. I don't hold anyone tightly with both hands, not any more. I don't think i am a perfect friend by any means, mostly because i'm not a perfect person and i don't know everything and i don't always react in the best ways. I stay away from people way more than i embrace people. I am not a very friendly person, at least not initially, but if i consider you my friend, then i pull out all the stops and you can be sure i have your back, 100%. In spite of everything, i still have people who love and care about me. What greater blessing is there than that? I understand that people love the fact that i'm "real" and "down to earth". I don't know any other way to be. I am just being myself.
- I got home today to a very unexpected surprise and the sweetest note i've ever received (that i can remember)
This is from someone i tease all the time and call my fake Nigerian friend. I've been home to Atlanta multiple times since i started med school, and i've only made an effort to see him once and his excuse for me was that i must have tons of other people i need to see. The truth is my asocial nature. I barely see anyone when i go home. This note touched me especially because it was SO unexpected.
- God has blessed me. Thank you, God!
