It’s Up To You*
I found this on Anonymous’ blog and decided to borrow it. I’m finding all sorts of interesting things from other people this week!! Please read & leave your response in a comment and I promise you… if you ask me to write about something (within limits, obviously) I will be as open as I can about it, without divulging too many personal details (ie–names, cities, etc etc). Everyone has things they blog about. Everyone has things they don’t blog about. Challenge me out of my comfort zone by telling me something I don’t blog about, but you’d like to hear about, and I’ll write a post about it. Ask for…

Formal*
Last night was my university’s formal and I had SUCH a good time. I went quite early to help decorate a little as Dee needed a hand with the table center pieces, and I LOVE doing things like that. So I was there for an hour or two then headed back to Dee’s to do my hair as it takes me FOREVER because I have the world’s thickest hair. *sigh* It’s fun to get all dolled up every once in a while though… I feel like such a bum at school most of the time because I usually slap on a pair of jeans & a sweatshirt and away I…

Chapter Three* (The First Words)
So, we finally met. I knew his name, and he could finally put my name in place of the “Lady Bug Girl” which he had been calling me up to that point. (he had wanted to meet me!!) However, things didn’t go quite as smoothly as I hoped. After meeting him late that night, for the next couple of weeks all I could get out of him was a quick smile and a wave. He was so stand-off-ish and I couldn’t figure out why… so I began to wonder if maybe he just wasn’t interested. I saw him nearly every Friday night for 3 – 4 weeks, and the more…

All About Me*
As I sit here this morning eating my peanut butter toast trying to be as quiet as possible as the Hubster is still sleeping (I’m letting him sleep in today… he’s earned it) I decided to borrow Veggie Carrie‘s little survey!

My Tribe*
I have a secret. And I’m going to share. Yesterday was a really great day. I had my favourite class (Modern German History) with my most favourite prof in the entire world, and we discussed Maus I & II. If you are interested in studying the Holocaust, I highly recommend reading these texts. They are graphic novels that tell an extremely powerful story of an Auschwitz survivor and the rocky relationship between a father and son as a result. They moved me so much that I actually had to stop reading at two specific points and walk away for a bit. Also, the Hubster’s parents came up for the afternoon!…
