I am becoming entirely disenchanted/overwhelmed.  Be the change I wish to see? Oh, but there's so much.  And "every little bit counts."  But does it? I see so much DUMB...dumb...and just plain tragic. (Those are links by the way. Check it.) Yes, I have no doubt that my days in the classroom are making a difference.  And that's wonderful and ( Read more... )

Damn. How will I ever gain readership if I can't bring myself to write more than once a month?

I am so busy again. Been writing a lot lately. Just random tidbits here and there. Scraps of paper, letters never sent, and entries for my new "job" as a Charleston Dance Examiner.

I'm dancing again.

Starting grad school in May?

Am I insane?

Today I wrote a ( Read more... )

Need to write. Intimidated by a challenge. So in the meantime, I'm just gonna write. Maybe randomly I'll hit a high note.

I'm reading a damn good book right now. The Historian. Vampire related, but more along the lines of Bram Stoker's, but even better (in my opinion). And the first book I've read in a long time without any mistakes. Which makes me ( Read more... )

I have a new challenge...avoid narcissistic rants...aim for fictional/abstract views of my days.  I know I can do this, but I feel pretty lame when I do.  Feel like I'm trying too hard. Feel incredibly fake. Feel like I'm trying to be some great creative writer that I'm not.  I'm going for it, though.  At least some days...maybe. So bear with it, ( Read more... )

Love how the last post says I'm going to start updating again...fail ( Read more... )

 I'm going to try to start updating in here again.  I haven't been keeping this journal or my written one for months.  I haven't had time for myself really.  Which has caused for one wreck of a brittany.  I'm not a wreck.  Just entirely detached from my life, which actually happens to be quite well of late, so it'd be nice to get back in touch with ( Read more... )

I have to share this.  This might not be a big deal to a lot of people, but it's huge to me and maybe to a few others...

I've started working out again.  I basically had not worked out for the two years since I had quit ballet.  At first, I felt like my body deserved the break, plus I wasn't sure that I was ready since I was still getting over the ( Read more... )

I'm not here for arguing, just discussion.  Only because I'm curious, love a good convo, and there are many things I just don't understand.  Plus, I see no sense in arguing what I feel.  I have no facts, I might actually have very little logic, but I know what I feel, and to me that can't be helped and shouldn't be apologized for...

If you know me ( Read more... )

( totally unnecessary yet fun 43-question survey! )

It's the first sunny day we've had for a while here, and the warmest day in a long time (57 degrees at 1pm).  I got up to go to ballet this morning and just couldn't bring myself to go to a studio with no windows.  I got Rosco and headed out for some morning outdoor yoga and a walk/run instead.  It was fabulous.  With all the snow melting, some of ( Read more... )
