I've gotten a job. It is minimum wage, but worth every dollar. Yesterday a man and his son came up to me asking for help. The son was not older than six and bright-eyed, but the man looked aged beyond his years. Terrible markings distorted his features, and he walked with a crutch. His face broke out in sweet smile when I gave his son a free teddy bear.

    Awe... that sounds like a heavenly experience. And congrats on the job! I am still on the market for one...

    About sky diving... It feels like being in front of a really really powerful fan! ha ha. It's odd because you can't feel the gravity so much but you can hardly breath because of how much air you are flying past plummeting to the ground. So, it's definitely not like a roller-coaster or anything, it was more pleasant and relaxing being up there and seeing everything. Sounds odd.... but true for me!

    I think I give out free things way more than I should. The boss says its okay every once and awhile, but I just can't help it sometimes. My heart melts at every hopeful, indecisive child without many tickets. (;

    It was a pleasure, Rachel! I've always wanted to go sky-diving. I'm going bungee-jumping soon, though, on a class trip where Mother can`t stop me. :3

    There is nothing better than doing what you love, other than perhaps sharing it with others!

    The world is your oyster, darling.
