So I'm currently obsessed with my friend Lauren's pictures on her blog. She's teaching in Thailand and is at an orphanage.
My heart is filled with such joy when I see her pictures. And it aches. I want to do that.
Maybe I'm where I am to learn and practice how to be a good teacher. Then i'll go somewhere were I am really needed badly. And be able to give more than i would be able to give now.

This is my favorite facebook status of all time:

Abbie, a 7 yr old, was fixing my hair and said, "there might be a little ouch, but that's bc your hair is not tidy."
