I Failed NaBloPoMo…or Did I?

I’ve always regarded the rules as very important. Very, very important. As such, I always try my best not to break them. However, I knew that the first rule of NaBloPoMo was that you had to post every day…and I haven’t posted since Monday. Oops. Why did I break this rule? Life. Life happened. I got busy, I got tired, I got caught up in school, at work,...

Listicle #1: Mini-Book Reviews

For the past five minutes, I’ve been having an interior conversation with myself throwing around ideas for my blog post today. One thing I thought would be fun is to make a listicle, BuzzFeed style. Unfortunately, I don’t have the time that BuzzFeed does to make a quality listicle, today, so a true listicle will come at some point this month when I...

A Discourse on Winter Outerwear

“You need a new winter jacket, and this one’s nice-you can wear it two different ways!” my mother said, pointing at a happy girl pretending to sled down a fake mountain in the JC Penney catalog. “Do you want the pink one or the blue one?” “I’d like the blue one,” was my reply.

However, never fear, Internet, I have returned, after eight months of living life large and full and learning and growing and smelling the trees and using public transportation and getting rained on because I can’t remember my umbrella, ever (except today when it didn’t rain), to begin once...

What Does It Mean To Be “Well Read?”

Emily:I like the way this fellow blogger takes on the question. I hope all of you enjoy it as much as I did! Originally posted on 101 Books: Someone recently told me I was “well read,” which I find interesting. The whole reason I started 101 Books was because I felt like I wasn’t “well read” enough, whatever that means. So now that I’ve read nearly...

Help me name my hamster!

So, I want to make this a mixed media blog, meaning that I won’t be talking at you through posts all the time. Sometimes, I’ll still be talking to you, you’ll just see my face and/or hear my voice! Exciting, I know :) So, one of the ways I want to help achieve the mixed media-ness of this blog is through videos, and I have this hamster toy. Its a battery...

Why More IS Better…in this case, anyways

So, it has been exactly one month since I’ve started this blog. And this post, is only my second post. And the first one with real content, because the first post was just a promise to upload more stuff soon. Which, obviously didn’t happen. So why didn’t I post anything until now? This blog has been on my mind since I started it. I’d come across something...
