"Pay in Forward"

Hello Readers,

So today, I was studying at Mayorga with Bryce. A man comes up to me and asks if I go to UMD. I decide to answer truthfully and reply, "Yes. I do. I see you have some tickets to todays game." He says "No, but here you go" and hands me the tickets and leaves. I open the envelope, thinking he just gave me football tickets. But no. I opened it up and to my utter surprise, I found two Colbie tickets. Each ticket was 40 dollars. The envelope read, "Pay in forward. Enjoy and Seize the Day." I had to pinch myself (not really... I would never hurt myself).
Just yesterday, I drove in my car and heard the concert announcement come on. I wished I could go, but I just couldn't because of the price. And God decided he would bless me with something little, but meaningful. Very kind. So Jenn came with me and we had a splendid time. The concert was wonderful. I'm going to try to post a video, but my favorite song, Bubbly, is not a good recording because my singing overpowered hers :)
Couples surrounded us in every direction. But I had Jenn!!! On the way home on the metro, two very unusual boys strolled around the metro car for 20 minutes touching their fingers to all the hand grasp bars. A girl and guy behind us wouldn't stop talking in baby voices to each other and kissing. Gross. Honestly.

Now, I am back in CP. In this house alone. But I feel safe because of two reasons. God is here and is surrounding this house. But also because it is raining like crazy. And what idiot would choose a rainy night, of all nights, to rob a house?
