A New Sister & The Art Of Being Girly
The girly arts. Not something I’ve mastered yet, but am starting to enjoy … sort of. LOL.
On Wednesday, I spent the whole day with Megumi, Gen’s fiance-to-be. We did the girly thing, had French manicures, shopped for her new dorm room (I didn’t buy anything), and did a lot of window shopping. It was pure, girl fun. As I look back on it, this is the first time I’ve gone out and spent a day with a Christian girl. I can’t explain what it was exactly, but there was something very different from being with Ben, Berek, or Gen. I understand brother-brother and brother-sister relationships. Sister-sister is something new.
After the shopping, Megumi and I went to a Starbucks and had a very long, serious talk together about our futures. We’ve agreed to plan and pray about certain things together, though I can’t exactly post them here. She’s back in SoCal now trying to finish up a year’s worth of study by December so she can come back to Tokyo sooner and so she can save her parents a year’s worth of tuition. Even though we’ve only met a few times, we’re thankful that God has given us each other as life-long friends and we’re very much looking forward to becoming sisters.
