Laren Poole's UCSD Commencement address... aka:...
Working at Invisible Children, I will be surrounded by brilliant, brilliant people… and my life will be forever changed. It is a dream come true, and I am so incredibly thrilled to use my talents/knowledge/creativity/hard work in order to end the longest running war in Africa. I took the following from the Invisible Children blog post. Laren Poole is one of the founders of Invisible...
God works in mysterious ways...
I can not believe I am moving to San Diego in only three weeks!!! This is such a HUGE veer off the path and I’m SO SO SO excited! I am SO honored to have been given an internship with Invisible Children. Joseph Kony’s war will end, and I am going to be a part of the reason. I can’t wait to get out there and start working!!
I want a froyo sundae SOOOOO badly right now.
Froyo, brownie, oreo crumbs, and a mountain of strawberries. I’m about to gain 10 lbs tonight and I’m going to love every second of it.

Can I say "I lived in Germany for a month" and...
Because that would be SO rad. I mean… I was there for a month. I wasn’t in a hotel or eating out… I was living in a flat, going to the market, cooking meals… Isn’t that “living there” ??

This is my beautiful cousin, Hannah, that I was talking about the other day. This is her second arrest. I am so proud of her for standing up for what she believes in and doing what she thinks is right… but it is so painful to see her getting arrested. This is a beautiful photograph though, she looks so serene. Love you Hanbanan.
Occupy Whatever
I can’t handle this Occupy stuff any longer. No, I don’t agree with all these protests and hold outs and the reasons behind them (if they even have reasons…) But, I DO strongly believe in the peoples right to do what they are doing. Here’s the thing though… when someone I love and carefor is being arrested and shoved to the ground by the police… it breaks my...

JUST GOT AN INTERVIEW WITH INVISIBLE CHILDREN!!!
WHAT IS HAPPENING?! seriously?! I think God exists because this is unreal. The past three weeks, everything in my life has taken a turn for AMAZINGNESS. I got offered housing on campus, scored 4 new jobs, met Two Door Cinema Club at a fucking GAS STATION, and 10 minutes ago Invisible Children called me (after turning me down a few months ago…) to say that they would love to interview me for...
