| ...And the only thing that you've ever known is to run
So you keep on driving faster into the sun
Cause everybody needs somebody sometimes
Yeah, everybody needs somebody sometimes
Don't have to find your own way out
You gotta voice, let it be heard
Just when it feels you're on a dead end road
There's always somewhere left to turn
So don't give up now
You're so close to a brand new day
Yes, you are and if you just can bear to be alone
I'll stay
Well, maybe I been too caught up to see
What you've been going through and all that I can say is
And everybody needs somebody sometimes
Yeah, everybody needs somebody sometimes...
Protests are very inspiring. I'd never been involved in any kind of one before but today was the first one. I liked it quite a bit. I'd do it any day and everyday that I possibly can.
I had dinner at a different house today. I have dinner at this particular house every four or five weeks as of late. I like doing this. It's fun. I get to meet people and spend time with them.
Soccer games are fun with people that you love to be with. That's what I've decided. I was had two blankets on and I shared them with two other girls. One of my favorite boys was sitting next to me and we talked off and on throughout the game. My sister was sitting a little father down and two other little boys as well. My future brother-in-law was playing on the winning team and I cheered and clapped for him throughout the game.
It was a nice day. I laughed, I cried (church), I walked, I sang, I sat. It was another good Sunday.
And I like good Sundays.

| Accomplishments in the life of Liana today include:
1. Getting all my school done. Last of the Mohicans will be read and I will not allow myself to be bored while reading it. I will not.
2. Going into the salon, decorating it for the fall, paperwork getting finished and getting my hair done. It's quite blonde now and, although my Mother is not thrilled with it, I really do love it. But I'd love whatever Carina does so I'm not quite a fair judge.
3. I went to the library. This has been on my list of things to do for at least a month now. I have not read a book from the library since the beginning of August. I felt like I had betrayed my dear old library and deprived it from my once a week trip. But, this daunting task being finished, I now have four books on my shelf. Three novels and the fourth a book of poetry from 1993. I haven't read much recent poetry at all so it should be quite interesting.
4. I once again was reunited with my love for mochas from The Blackbird Cafe. I found myself there after Dad dropped me off on Main Street ("The walk will be nice") but suddenly, instead of my beloved 14 Miner Street salon, I was in a cafe ordering a large drink with an extra shot and saying hi to friends I havent seen in months. I really did not mind this reunion. In fact, I quite enjoyed it.
5. My final accomplishment. Writing this post. Yes, as poorly spelled as it might be (still working on typing with my iTouch) it really is an accomplishment. For days I've been reminding myself of how I need to write and now I finally have. I am quite pleased with myself. I've stuck with this writing thing so far. Hopefully I'll be able to keep up with it. | | |
| I'm sitting on the love seat in the sitting room. My sister plays the piano and I can hear little kids playing. Johannes is up working on the roof and Mom is outside somewhere in the midst of the garden. The house is empty. Only two of us actually in it. Soon one will be home from work, another from school. We'll all go into Potsdam and listen to another sister play at Hurley's.
Missions night took place yesterday. I heard of places I'll only ever hear of, saw faces that I miss, and wished I could've been up there telling people about the place I went to. Next year, I tell myself. Next year I'll be able to tell them about that country I've wanted to go to for so long. Next year I'll wish I didn't have to go up there and share. Maybe. But I really hope so.
Haha. Johannes just jumped off the roof. He's so crazy. He's going home on Tuesday or Wednesday (depending on whether he goes to Niagara Falls first or not). I'll miss him. Another goodbye.
Every evening I seem to get in this weird sort of melancholy state of mind. It doesn't last. In fact, in an hour from now it won't be there. I'll be singing and skipping around the house again. But for now, I look at all the things I didn't do today and feel very selfish. I took a minute or two to sit instead of putting that pile of laundry away or something like that. Really, I think these melancholy states of mind are very selfish. I just think about myself and all the things I've done wrong. It's amazing how quickly my mood can change. A little less than an hour ago I was dancing in the kitchen and listening to Abba. Oh, gosh. I have quite a few things to work on. But don't we all?

| The desire to write was all I thought about today. What to write I did not know. I still don't know but I must eventually succomb to such a desire. Writing used to come easily. I could sit down at a computer or in front of paper with a pen and write. About what I don't remember but I would write. Tell fictional stories, tell true stories. Write about what I saw, write about what I wanted to see. It really didn't matter. All I truly remember was the ability to express my feelings through words, whether hidden or in plain sight. That ability has apparently left me high and dry. I no longer sit at a computer with ideas. I sit here wondering why I'm sitting here. What am I doing in front of this screen? There's no one to talk to; just space waiting to be filled with words that are not in me. I've often heard the phrase "practice makes perfect". I have determined to write more, assuming that the phrase is true not only when it comes to musical instruments but also to writing. Who knows how this forceful writing will turn out but thee is only one way to tell. So I must write. And write I will try. | | |
| I am upstairs in my room waiting for the shower. I got home Saturday Evening. I've gone to church, the Daniels, a soccer game, and a birthday party.
I missed being home but right now it doesn't feel right to be here. How is it that my favorite place to be just isn't right? How does the one place I belong feel wrong? This is what I wanted; to be home and start school with my favorite people. I got my wish. It's my first day of school.
I've decided that I'll never truly know what's best for me. I will guess all the possible choices but I'll never truly know. How could I? I make more wrong choices than good ones. I'm glad that God knows He can't trust me to make right decisions. If He did, I might not be here.
Anyway. I am in the state of melancholy. It will pass soon enough. | | |
