Note 11
Mom,
I'm glad you know that Qui-Gon is a Jedi now. I've been asked him a bunch of stuff about Jedi.
Even though you didn't tell me specifically last time, I know that you have agreed to let me race because Qui-Gon said you said yes. Was he telling the truth? If not, I am going to race anyway. You can't stop me. This is something I HAVE to do, and I want to.
And if you really did agree…Thanks mom!! I'm going to do it! I'm going to race tomorrow! Did you get a chance to see the finished pod? It works! I can't wait until tomorrow!
I've always known that you loved me, and I know you always will. Yes…I know that I want to help them…and I have always tried to follow my heart just like you've always been telling me. I trust my feelings.
Did you know that Padmé is a handmaiden to the Queen of Naboo? Don't you think that's weird. You like Padmé too? I'm glad. Yes, I have picked her out as my wife…I have found her. You don't understand what I was talking about with the feelings? I guess Qui-Gon is right…maybe not everyone gets those feelings.
I know that you lied to me about my father just now. Number one: if I didn't have a father, I would be perfect, and I know I'm not. Number two: Jesus is the only person who ever was born through a virgin birth. Fine…if you don't want to tell me about my father…then fine.
Remember what Jar-Jar did at dinner? Qui-Gon caught his tongue…him…he did that so quickly…do you think he knew it would happen before it happened? Do you think that other people get those feelings like that that I get? I wasn't paying attention to Jar-Jar when he did that…and I was thinking about the podraces and how I could help them…and I was thinking of Padmé….and I wasn't looking at Jar-Jar….so I didn't get that feeling that he was going to do that. That only happens when my mind's not on something else. Well anyway…doesn't every human get those feelings? You know what I'm talking about, right?
Because Qui-Gon told me that not everyone is like that….and it confused me.
Anyway…I got this little cut on my arm while I was fixing up the pod and Qui-Gon asked to clean it. Don't you think that's weird? And then you know what he did? He took out a needle and pricked me with it and took a blood sample. He said he was checking for infections. I thought that was REALLY weird. You never check for infections when I get cuts…..and it was such a small cut. He must have gone to a lot of bother with it.
Oh well….I get to race tomorrow!!!! I can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You're not going to stop me from racing.
Oh yeah…and Jira told me to tell you hi.
