Mojo

What is Mojo? Yes, it is another made of word of mine. I really should keep a list of these words. I think it is used at Seattle Mariners Games, but I used it to describe flirting. It happens often when surrounded by young single adults all summer long. The girl gives looks and small hints. Whether the boy catches the hints is another story. First, the attraction, then the process of getting to know the person and their personality. Are you physically attracted to them? What about their personality? Do they make you laugh? Do they carry the traits you are looking for? Are they kind to others? What about their spirituality? Can you hold a long conservation with them? Do you have the same interests? After 8 weeks of spending time with my peers, I still love to people watch. Each week, each person may have adjusted their interest or continue their interest in the same person. What is difficult with EFY, is that you are focused on the youth during the week. You bridled your passions, then the weekend happens, everything comes out in two days of serious mojo. So Entertaining! I love it, I never get tired of watching it.

I'm pretty sure Austin Powers would be upset that you stole his mojo and claimed it as your own word. :) It's funny how obvious it is when people are flirting. And how stupid they look. But I guess we all gotta do what we gotta do, knowwhatimsaying'?

It sounds like you're having so much fun this summer with EFY, etc. Maybe you won't want to come back to school?!?!?! Are you back in Utah yet? i want to set you up with someone... are you up for something like that?
