NOTES: not edited, taken from my TREO 600 per her exact words

..coming out to help people that have been affected by hurricane katrina is the most rewarding experience. Seeing the news after the hurricane then seeing it first hand is something surrel. Going into someones home and knocking down their walls and ripping their floors felt strange at first but realizing im helping someone so much is the best feeling in the world. Even if its just a few people I know im doing my part to help someone in need.
