Happy Easter! ~


 As someone who isn't particularly religious, Easter has quite a superficial meaning for me. I eat the chocolate bunnies and go on the egg hunts, but I don't know much about Jesus' death on the cross nor his rising from the dead. Particularly ignorant about religion in general, I turn to my friends to explain to me the different beliefs. I know that the Jewish holiday, Passover, happened pretty recently only because the school cafeteria served matzo balls almost every day this week.

As I grow older (and hopefully wiser) I find that I am more interested in things that don't particularly involve me directly. Just because I am not affected doesn't mean I shouldn't try understanding what other people think, feel and believe.

That's all for now. Much thanks to Mrs. Davis for sending me this Chocolate Bunny for Easter :)

Easter Egg Hunt

Today was the first time I participated in an egg hunt in a very long time. For the last few years, I volunteered at the local community center during the annual Easter Egg hunts. I'd get to hide all the eggs and wait for the countdown before little kids swarmed into the park like the plague. Anyways, my school's NSCS chapter held an Egg Hunt for the general body members for "bonding" time. I found some eggs. It's nice to be the kid again.
