Tonight I am going to a big NYE bash in Philly…and really, I’m just not feeling it. I am really the curl up on the couch with a plastic tiara headband, friends and a couple glasses of wine kind of gal, but I got suckered into this party…so off I go. And I still have no idea what to wear.

I’ve learned that everything that I dislike in a person is what I dislike in me, and that everything that I like is synonymous to that one person. I’ve learned to talk less and hear more; to listen carefully and pay attention to details, no matter how minor they are. I’ve learned that people come and go, and it’s only up to you and very important to maintain them, even in your...
This afternoon I dyed my hair, nothing big, you know…just to finally get out the summer lights that were at the bottom and I accidently got the smallest, smallest, almost unnoticable drop of dye on the walls that my dad just finished painting. Honestly, I don’t know how it got there, i swear I combed and cleaned the entire bathroom before I left to go walk around for 25 minutes. But...
My posts have been infrequent..or, er, not at all, but i am so enjoying just being at home with my family. I just have this feeling I am not going to be ready to go back in a week.
I never got over it, I just got used to it.

You know I didn’t mean What I just said But my God woke up On the wrong side of his bed And it just don’t matter now

The Velveteen Rabbit
alanajoy:
“What is REAL?” asked the Rabbit one day, when they were lying side by side near the nursery fender, before Nana came to tidy the room. ”Does it mean having things that buzz inside you and a stick-out handle?”
“Real isn’t how you are made,” said the Skin Horse. ”It’s a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves...

I’ve seen 63.2%. I suppose i have some work to do.
I came in right under 50%. I felt as though I was doing pretty well.
I’m a little wary of posting my score…of, um, 9.2%
I have never seen Indiana Jones, Godfather, Star wars, gosh…you name it, I have never seen it. And never plan to.
I have never even seen Rocky for gods sake. Maybe its a good thing I...

I’ve never been the type to say Hollywood stars aren’t allowed to have opinions. But this? Is pretty damned irresponsible.
My issue with celebrities is that they state their opinions like they are doctors. Which, they are not. Which was my whole problem with Tom Cruise. The guy makes movies for a living, I don’t care how much ‘research’ he does on the internet...
FRENCH.
missbrightside:
so these stupid language credits might stop me from graduating in may. seriously. i’m doing everything in my power to summon the motivation to get these damn home study courses done (i might withdraw from this one and just start on the other two). yesterday i went to barnes and noble and bought a french grammar workbook. today i set up a private blog where i’m going to blog in...
People tell me it’s a sin To know and feel too much within. I still believe she was my twin, but I lost the ring. She was born in spring, but I was born too late Blame it on a simple twist of fate.
Simple Twist of Fate - Dylan
When I get homesick, I listen to Bob Dylan…it was always on when I was little.
You say you’re looking for someone Who’ll pick you up each time you fall, To gather flowers constantly And to come each time you call A lover for your life and nothing more, But it ain’t me, babe.
classic dylan.
Students are still striking...
only now there really aren’t any students because not only is it a strike, but its a strike the week before Noel. Yeah. I would complain that I hate to get up at 8:00 to teach a class where the students don’t show up, but who am I kidding? Its better than getting up and having them be there.
Although I did have a pretty cool lesson in which we all sang christmas songs and filled in...

I scroll through their first page of posts and if something mind-blowing catches my eye, you got me. I’m yours from hello.
I have to say I agree - I have always been a ‘pretty cover’ person, although hey if the material inside is even better, its a bonus. If the material sucks, you get cut.out.
I hate getting up and working on my day off.
and I really hate getting up early to talk french all day on my day off.
