I've been meaning to post here to update the site and just talk in general but for some reason I couldn't logon onto Cutenews. It's just insane, I don't know why that happened. But it did and because I've been so busy I just didn't care. I was like whatever, I'll just wait and see what happens. Thankfully, it now works.

But other than that, I've had a pretty emotional day, an emotionally draining day to say the least. I don't know if you've ever heard of this activity but today, as part of our staff meeting, we did something called Lifelines. It's pretty much were the whole staff (there's 11 of us) get together and share a personal story about ourselves to others. So I got to hear 10 wonderful stories from other people. It was so emotional because I felt like I can feel some kind of pain in each and every one of their stories...they were so touching that I was crying openly.

I'm not a very touchy, touchy person and I don't like to cry in front of people because I feel week and vulnerable, two things that I don't like to feel and try not to show but I just couldn't hold it in at that time.

However, the whole time I was listening to people's stories, I kept trying to 'coach' myself not to cry when it was my turn to share my story. Amazingly, I surprised myself by not crying during my story. I don't know how I did it but I think having a rubix cube in my hands definitely helped. My friend was sitting next to me and she told me, after the meeting, that she felt bad for the cube because it felt like I was releasing a lot of anger/tension on it. That was funny ....

I feel like I have more to say but I think I'm going to cut myself off and just go to bed. I want to work out tomorrow and it's already 12 am in the morning. Gotta get my sleep...
