family

i know ive written about this before, but im so thankful for my family. i had a situation where i really needed my mom (yes, 26 years old and needing my mother) and im lucky enough to not only have her, but also my extended family to fall back on. my mom and step dad are lucky enough to be on sabbatical right now so they arent in the country. i felt happy that they were gone so my mom wouldnt be calling me every few days asking about my safety in this big ol city. but on saturday i actually felt the void of my mom not being around! it was a weird revelation but a good one nonetheless.

anyways, its also from my family that i get this damn pointy chin!
