I found a Tori-esque singer-songwriter from Sarah Lawrence named Bekah Hayes who captures SL life so spot-on it almost made me a little bit sick. Too close for comfort or something. The SLCers still on my friends list should appreciate these lyrics ( Read more... )

Funny and true.

Am I the only person, though, who thought that Sarah Lawrence was a great place? It had its limitations and its frustrations and once or twice in a while it drove me crazy. But I said "This place is perfect place for me." the first time I walked on campus and, unlike apparently everybody else, I felt that way the day I left.

I think for a certain kind of person it totally works.

(Don't ask me who that person is).

I heard Bekah play quite a few times at SLC. She's amazing.

I'm def enjoying the album.

Her bio is pretentious (this really intense and unnecessary disavowal of the term "singer-songwriter" and comparisons to people like Tori, which to me only makes her seem more self conscious in that especially Sarah Lawrence-y way that I SO don't miss) and poorly written (which is kind of surprising coming from an SLC alum).

I think she was my year. What I remember most about her is that she had a picture of her exposed ovaries on her wall, from a surgery that she had.

I actually have a question for you, as a Chicago person and one whom (if I recall correctly) has worked some kind of horticultural job. If I was looking to buy a not-cheapskatey wedding present in Chicago, namely a tree or flowering bush of some kind that is currently of manageable size but could be planted on a private property to grow larger, where would you recommend I go and what would you recommend I get? If I'm totally off the mark regarding the things you might or might not know about, do pardon me.

I'd try Gethsemane. It's kind of near where Tim used to live in Edgewater. Not that that means anything to you.
