Ann Arbor, Ikea, and all things new


I live in Ann Arbor now. It is a fun college town with so much to do, talk about a severe contrast to davison/flint michigan. I am going to be moving into Jane's basement. We are converting it to my very own apartment!


SO I went to Ikea for my new stuff! Yay!! I swear that I got a headache as soon as i walked in. But I got some neat stuff for just $75!!!



Alright, there is a new cast of characters.

Jane: The woman I live with! She is a flight attendant for Spirit Airlines and has a daughter named Anya. Jane does dance and lots of art.

Anya: She is 4.5 and is active! She was not sure how she felt about me living with her, but after spending 5 days at Louhelen she came home and let me know that "i missed you. I missed you so much. SOO much." You may call me : Madeline, conquerer of hearts!


Megan: neighbor and confidedant of the jane/anya/madeline family. She is a dance healer and is just a lovely lady!


Mario: Megan's son who is 4.5. He is half persian so I am teaching him some farsi phrases. Anya and Mario are "brother" and "sister" and make sure everyone knows.


Char: Fantastical youth who is going to the University. She and I have many adventures and funnily enough most of those encounters include observing different running styles. We have noticed that running with backpacks is really in vogue.


Ahang: The friend who I go to long lengths for and who does the same for me. These amazing feats include but are not limited to driving someone to the mall at 11:00pm, driving someone to airport at 5:00 am, helping each other move in...you get the idea...i think.
Lev: So happy to find out that he was living here! I met him in Chicago and now we are both living here! Yay! He is the person I meet with to say "i want to serve!!!" and he says "booyah!!" or some such simliar phrase.
Cast of Characters part 2 will be coming once they get developed more.

Great new look for the blog, sis! I love the way you blog! So creative! Cast of characters, I love it! Please have a photo excursion sometime soon, so that we can all see what Ann Arbor looks like, and better get to know this "cast"...

photo excursion? Yes please. I am thrilled to be in your new cast of characters, and in such good company! I think you should share more pearls of wisdom from Anya, so that the blogosphere can revel in her unadulterated genius.

Soon our blogs will link to one another, forming tight bonds of unity...not unlike Voltron.

Too bad it looks like we are going to miss you while we are here in KC. That's just not fair!!

Hi! So I just came back to the US for a month-long visit, and now I can view your blog. In China the blogger and blogspot websites are blocked, so I ain't got no chance to view this here blog of yours. So here I am catching up on the world of Madeline. Sounds like your are happy and joyful in your new locality. Alright, I'm off to read the last few of your entries to see what's been up with you. Tell Lev Rikards I love him, you are lucky to be living in the same vicinity as that stellar lad.
Stay up...
Keep well...
Be rad...
