i found a plant in a dumpster outside grace's apartment.

i gave it some water and now it's healthy again.

i also pulled a succulent off a tree

in during the "neighborhood walk"
and gave it a new home

in a banana flavored yogurt container.

today, my 2nd grade buddy M hugged me

for the first time after playing four-square

(he's really shy and quiet,

so it was a very magical moment).
