Anyone have any ideas for a self-portrait I could do for my photography class?

Thanks! I am just utter crap at thinking of ideas for stuff like this.

Okay, so it's late and I'm sleepy, so please forgive any jumbled thoughts that may not flow smoothly, but I just received an e-mail from a friend advising me to boycott the "new coins". I'm not actually in the States right now, but apparently we are getting new monetary coins, or they are being put into circulation, and these coins do not have the ( Read more... )

I'm going to complain for one moment. Sometimes being tall is okay. Finding people in crowds, for instance, or reaching the top shelf of the cupboard. Other times? It's not so great. Like when you're in Mexico, for example.

I feel very disappointed here quite often. I didn't really think about my expectations for the trip before I came, but I am ( Read more... )

A friend sent me this e-mail. I thought it was cute. Hope you enjoy it!

Ireland.

ISRAEL.

JORDAN.

EGYPT.

KENYA.

CAMBODIA.

THAILAND.

Jazzed doesn't even come close to describing my elation right now. ISRAEL! EGYPT! I love Hebrew and Arabic! I love the middle east! I love ireland! Eeeeee!

So, life has taken a turn for the better today.

My honor's project might actually come out with some REALLY interesting results about language use at Central. So pumped! I may end up with like, 100 more surveys, too, which is awesome, because it will help my statistics so much.

One more exam to go!

My parents may be going to church with me on Sunday ( Read more... )

I'm thinking about cancelling this. So, in case anyone would want to stay in touch, my e-mail is ladybug_9243@hotmail.com. (Don't ask about that- it's from the 5th grade.)

I came across "Love You More" by Racoon. I highly recommend that you listen to it. I can't get it out of my head, probably because it was the music set to a video made by a girl ( Read more... )
