My friend Brittney said to me today at breakfast... we are going to be here for four months.
oh my gosh.
I officially live on an island. I officially wont be coming home to see my friends ( who i am missing like crazy) I am making a new life in a completely different place. I have none of the same old drama. I almost wish i could just cut all communication with home and see what would happen when i came home. I hope more that anything God gives me the opportunity to stay in this place for two semesters. It is so beautiful. The people are beautiful. The way of life is a mind opener. I am going to learn so much this semester.. considering i have learned so much this little into my adventure. Sometimes it is hard to hold on to me because there are so many different people here. I struggle a lot with focusing on ME. For example everyone listens to rap and hip hop and r&b and i dont. Its hard for me to sit and listen to my music becasue i want to fit in. too much of what happens here is TOTALLY NOT ME. I dont have a church here which is a bit hard for me because Church holds me to my words of commitment with God. I am going to find a balance between school, work, friends, going out and me time. it might not be too easy.
I really do live here. wow.
Peace and Love

Yes, and you have been there 2 full weeks. It seems like nothing, and sooner than later you will be back home.
I hope you get a chance to socialize with as many different folks as you can, and that will truly be a learning experience.
Thanks for sharing with us your daya to day, we really enjoy it.
Love
Who we truely are never changes. We are sparks of Gods love. As sparks we will always be transmitters of love and light and beauty.
What we like, how we talk, what we wear is fluid. It must be because that is what builds our relationships and our understanding of others. This fluidness is a result of new ideas influencing us and our own growth as we understand God's principles more deeply.
So, relax and let the island wash over you. You won't lose yourself so long as you stay connected to the light within. The rest is just decorations.
I love you so much and I love watching you become the beauty God meant for you to be.
Love,
Mom
Hi Cordelia,
I contacted my friend Brian to find out about his relationship with the Blink 182 drummer. This is what he said: "For the record, I never actually played in band with Scott Raynor (the original blink drummer). I tried to get him to play in my band when he was a freshman, but he told me that he had just joined this punk band with a couple of seniors (which of course turned out to be blink). I guess it worked out better for him, but they ended up firing him after their second album I think."
I apologize for getting the story wrong. I told it, as it was told to me.
Also, I'm proud of you to be there, so far from home. What a great opportunity to grow wings.
stay you,
shane
