I came to Liberty Park the first time on september 26th. I painted a sign on a piece of white cardboard. It was of a womans face shouting. She had Wonder Woman arm cuffs. I don't remember the words. I also painted another sign that said Respect the 1st amendment, but I spelled amendment wrong.. I left the sign leaning up against a tree and a few days later noticed someone had corrected the spelling on it. :)
The first day I was there, I became hooked. It was amazing to walk 1 foot in any direction and there you would be face to face with someone interesting to talk to. Dr. Cornell West was there that day. I saw some old friends there and made new ones.
I've been occupied every day since.

Spreading the word about Occupy Wall Street on Facebook before it started and the first day and night at Zuccotti Park. My life, for better or for worse, will never be the same again.
