I have seen more movies these past two weeks than I have in the past few months. Last week, one evening, I did not feel like going home and neither did Sis. So, we went out to see The Raven. Tiki and Branners joined us for our late night movie adventure. The Raven is historical fan fiction basically, done crack-style. Edgar Allen Poe has ( Read more... )

I volunteered to usher/set up for The Vagina Monologues on campus, so I could see their interpretation of it and because they were a small production and needed help. It's funny how even people in theater think that nearly the only thing that needs preparation for a play is the ACTING and the SCRIPT - forget the whole sets, programs, ticket booth ( Read more... )

There's a tree on campus whose seed pods smell like wet cardboard and spicy books. I don't go out of my way to smell it, but every time I walk under that tree, I can't help but breathe it in ( Read more... )

It's that feeling you get when your head finally lets your heart get in its pants!
Glee!
It's like a drug that you use that turns pain into shoes and your shoes into dance!
How's your piano still playing that song?
Glee is the answer when questions are wrong.
'Cause glee is the gift that we neee*change of key*eeeeed!

Yes, that song, from Community ( Read more... )

This weekend was crazy and I have definitely not finished all of my homework before the beginning of the week. Nur. But it's all good, because

• I went dancing
• walked my Grandma around the park
• co-facilitated a two-day strategic planning retreat, where I took a leadership role in parts of it and got to stay overnight at a very nice house and was ( Read more... )

1. We received a notice that we had a package to be picked up. The address was correct for our house; it was delivered through Amazon. The name said it was for "Nevermore B&B". Cue ??-faces all around. We picked up the package and discovered it had two books by Scott McCloud about comics. Huh. We still don't know who sent it or why ( Read more... )

My grandma was in a bad way this week. She fell and had to go to the hospital and my aunt is finding being primary caregiver difficult. She's not coping well, but wasn't really telling us about it. So, we've been going over more this week to make sure that everything is going okay. And I'll be over at least once a week regularly ( Read more... )

My first reaction? There is too much; I can't even. They shoved so much into that episode. The amount of cases mentioned in the first 15 minutes alone had my head spin and that's not even mentioning how they wrapped up the cliffhanger and introduce The Woman. Overall I can say at this moment that it was good - amusing and clever as we've come to ( Read more... )

Hau'oli Makahiki Hou, everyone! It's a new year. It's a somewhat arbitrary, but wonderful excuse to enact lifestyle changes that you've been thinking about. It's a chance to start over. It's a chance to really do what you've been thinking about. It's a day of new beginnings and old habits. Embrace the new year like a new page in a partially ( Read more... )

Christmas was pretty good this year. :). Family was nice. And the potluck dinner was delicious. Everyone had a hand in making it which is only right and proper. A friend of the family made AMAZING ribs. The kids got tons of presents and a book from me. Each person in the immediate family received a big ticket gift. I got an iPod! :D I'm typing ( Read more... )
