Home?
Well, I'm home at last! It's not everything I remember but it feels so good to be home. I got in around 5:45PM last night, after a massive ordeal at the airport! I only was allowed 20k of weight and I had 65k, so I upgraded to first class allowing me only 40k of weight, I then dumbed some books taking my weight down to 55k and pleaded with the clerk to let me in, which he did. I bypassed the whole welcome home party thing and had a nice little dinner with two of my best friends, parents, sisters, brothers, neices, and nephew. oh, it was so good! yucca, plantains, chicken, blackbeans and rice... I'm back in my element! I then jumped on my new machine and began trasnfering files and watching some anime. lol, can u say homebody!
Today I've been playing it low, not calling anyone, not really going to see many people. I don't want a forceful rentry, I'm going to assese the situation and enter in my own time. I went by my church to drop my sister off adn said hi to the office stay, who were elated to see me and ask if I was finally home to stay. The drivers down here are crazy, everyone runs the red lights without camras attatchted to them, and everyone was honking and yelling at me for driving the speed limit. Oh well back to the rush rush culture of Miami. I then embarked on a shopping trip with on of my BF(not boyfriend, one of my bestfriends)we were looking for a DVD for his GF. we went to the three main malls in my area and one anime store none of which had it, so we finally ended up finding it at the tiny mall(about the size of york dale) around the corner from my house. I had some great cajun food at the mall TOO! Bourbon chicken with some jambalya rice and plantains, baby! after that I went to by a game and a book only to find out that I have completly forgot my pin number! all in all it was a pretty uneventful day. No adventure so far...
As soon as I landed yesterday I could just feel all the oppression here. Toronto made me really soft in my ability to resist certain strong holds. Everyone one here acts like their poor and needing more, when that is really not true at all. they have this take, take, horde, horde, survive, survive, mentality. So when I flew into that I began taking it on right away, worring about jobs, cars, money. But I quickly identified the stuff and was like this ain't me, I never worry about this stuff so screw it all, everythings gunna work out. But it seems like everyone around me is thinking, "wow going up there made you so behind on your studies", "look what kind of job I got while you were up playing ministry", "what you think you'r better than us now?", "are you a threat?", overall the same old same old. But I never really let that kind of narrow minded crap get to me and it ain't going to get to me now, so I'm just chilling and relaxing for a few days while casually looking for a job and maybe going to stir the minds of the traditional thinkers in my church witha little bit a aggressive debate. Is this really still home, do I have a home besides the Father's arms and my families company? well I'm off to do some work adn watch a movie... more to come tomorrow... which should be an adventure because I actually have part of it planned out. well its so late and I'm so tired I can barely type, not to mention spell. peace out

Anytime you're debate hungary...you call me up! We'll disagree on everything! You can read minds? I know you don't care what they think about you, but it's interesting analyzing their actions. You are so loved Justin, by your Floridian friends, and by US! Let's go to Chapters tomorrow night ok?
