Default Ive done my good deed for the day :)

My mom is doing a bike ride for cancer this summer, and its from Montreal to Quebec City. To give you an idea of how far that is, by car it takes 4 hours, roughly to get to quebec city from here.

She needs to raise 2500$, and today I sponsored her 200$.

She freaked out in a combination of super happiness and annoyed-ness[yes i know thats not a word, but w/e] cause that was my ENTIRE paycheck going to her ride.

So yeah, i feel pretty good right now

I like going for the 5K Walk/Run events happening in L.A.
I mean, I know it's not comparable to riding a bike from Montreal to Quebec City, but it's really fun to do!

I did the AIDS walk last year with a friend and we had to walk 10K, another one was for pancreatic Cancer research which was a 5K Walk/Run.

This Sunday, I'm going to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation 5K walk.

You're doing a good job supporting your mom!

Coolbeans. I don't have any money to give, but I find living every day with compassion and love is the best way to live. The big gestures are great when they come naturally. ^.^
