Shit Out of Luck is what you should really call Officer Irvine, badge # 2952.
On Wednesday night I drove home from hula practice at around 9 p.m.---the usual practice. As I turned on my car's engine, I noticed my headlights were dimming. Seeing this I decided to increase the chances of safety by turning on my fog lights on as well. Unfortunately, my headlights had died out along my drive back to home... and even more unfortunate is that I got pulled over.
The officer seemed kind and reasonable. I played cool and calm, and in my mind, my headlights weren't totally out. To Officer Irvine, my lighting wasn't enough and he decided to cite me. Not only did he cite me, but he claimed that I had no lighting at all and that my violation is not deemed correctional.
So just moments ago I logged into youtube and was taught via various DIY vids on how to change the headlights of a car. And well, you guessed it, success was on my part. :)
Tomorrow I plan to arrange for my first ever contest to a ticket violation trial. I'm nervous but excited. Very proud of my work--I feel so damned independent!
But I can't thank the faces on youtube enough... Dang, youtube is quite the life saver. I learned to extract candle wax from my carpet from youtube, and now changing my headlights. Youtube I am forever grateful.
Funny how life works :)

I ♥ Shel Silverstein
"Invitation" 
If you are a dreamer, come in,
If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar,
A hope-er, a pray-er, a magic bean buyer...
If you're a pretender, come sit by my fire
For we have some flax-golden tales to spin.
Come in!
Come in!

Come in!

The Simple Penny
There are times when we all need a bit of encouragement.
Above Lincoln's head on the U.S. penny is "IN GOD WE TRUST."
Simply reading this can soothe the soul and place hope into one's future.
Happiness is not an intangible asset,

THE OSCARS OF GIVING
These people have taken a lot of time and effort into giving themselves up for love. Like any artist, there is a lot of sacrifice coming from each of these heroes. But I'm definitely proud that the Hero of the Year is a Filipino.
2009 has a been a big year for the Philippines, and I think it's starting to receive the kind of attention it truly deserves.
I admit I have my doubts and reservations about my own kind. The things I hear from my mother, a first generation Filipino, has educated me on many stories of theft, robbery, and lies--some stories that originate within my own family lineage. It's heart breaking to know, and embarrassing to be in any correlation to, but it is the truth of the homeland: corruption is everywhere, especially in the human heart. And it is good to know that there are some people who are trying to manipulate goodness despite the greed, negativity, and crime--someone still has inspiration.
Mr. Penaflorida,
you are a pioneering artist. the kind that needs to be spoken of in textbooks, and taught in classrooms. I am certain that your heroism is an art that provokes emotions from any audience.
and though I have never personally met you, your over generosity is very addictive behavior. Thank you for being a role model across all color lines, and thank you for not being fearful of giving yourself to good deeds.
Thankful,
RAE
