Spoken Words, you save my life





So had my 2nd day of SPOP training today! Got to meet some more awesome people, and i got to meet my SPOP family...they are awesome!!! I can't wait till we show up all those other want to be families...pshhhhhh! :0
But what i wanted to write about today i about what happened after SPOP training. Usually we go hang out somewhere to just chill, so we went to Jamboree square to chill with some boba. There was also another event that was announced and that was Open MiKe night at this coffee joint (can't recall the name! xp) Well at first i wasn't sure i was going to go to the open mic night, but i went cause one of the SPOP coords was going to make her first ever Spoke Words. Let me tell you...it was moving. It was beautiful. When she started off, i wasn't sure how it was going to go. But she seemed so confident, with so much passion. Her words, the meanings she was expressing, they almost made me cry a little cause they were so meaningful. After hearing people young and old go up to play music, do spoken word, and just express themselves, i think im going to give it a shot soon. Its going to take me awhile to get some words together to do this...im no wordsmith, haha. But before this quarter is over, i think im going to do this.
