Complete Randomness

I have two things I have been thinking about, so here they are:

1. I am so ridiculously excited about Carolina football starting this Thursday night. Sadly the first two games are away, but soon enough we will have a home game. Looking back, I couldn't tell you where or how my family became Gamecock fans. Neither of my parents went to USC, but nonetheless we starting coming to games a few years before I applied and I am proud to say that I have one missed one home game in four years! There is nothing like tailgating with 70,000 people cheering on the same team. Though we are not always winners, there is still fun to be had. We have a cockaboose, which is a train car (there are 23 behind the stadium, so close you can throw a football and hit it- it's been tested) that was hollowed out and set up for one good tailgate. Kitchen with fridge and sink, toilet and shower and space for a sofa and tv inside. Upstairs is a deck that can have a tv with plenty of seating and a awning to shade the heat. It is the coolest spot to watch people, the game. I love it and am so excited. Wish us luck this season!

2. I have been watching Freedom Writers the I dvred and have been thinking that during my lifetime, I want to do something that really make a difference. I have been so fortunate: amazing parents, the best group of friends, great mentors and teachers, a wonderful childhood and a family that introduced me to so many things like theatre and dance and art. In the end I don't think it matters how much you make or the actually possessions you have, but rather the difference you can make in the world. I am not sure what or how I am going to do it, but keep posted because eventually I will find my "Purpose." (had to add the Avenue Q reference)
