Report card day came yesterday which is either a day of stress or joy. For me it was annoyance, I know that many people will probably not sympathize with me at all, but I need to rant. No matter what I do or how hard I try i can’t get to the 90% average mark. [...]

Pondering…

I know last month I wrote that I would write each month a couple questions that have been circling around in my head for people to comment on. But this month I’ve been pretty out of it. And i kind of just want to blog. In its true essence. I only have one question this [...]

Everyday, maybe every second day, my mom calls her sister or her sister calls my mom. She lives in the states and has 6 kids, 4 of her own and 2 stepsons from her second marriage. The typical American family. She had mention to my mom that her husband had taken all the kids to [...]
A Compassionate Heart
Posted in My Life, News/ World Event, Uncategorized on January 27, 2008 | 3 Comments »
This is a story of a compassionate heart. A heart that bleeds for the world and cries for the world. A heart that drowns in a flood of the worlds problems. Global warming, cruelty towards animals, Aids crisis, war in the middle east, war in Afghanistan, diminishing cultures, corrupted authorities, starvation, racism. A compassionate heart doesn’t [...]

Do you ever go on the blog to comment and come out without having commented on anything? Is it just me or is it really hard to find something that sparks interest? I mean don’t get me wrong I love when people blog and I do love reading them, but… sometimes I read something and [...]
Happy New Year?

Well its that time again another year has come and gone and we’re left reflecting on our lives or recovering from a hangover. On this New Years Day I’m doing both. Last night at the countdown, when 0 was screamed by everyone I couldn’t help but think of Caity’s thing “Welcome to the New” odd [...]

Abuse comes in many many forms. Bullying, verbal, sexual, physical. Why is it happening? And why are we not fighting back? I was talking to a friend about sexual abuse trying to get a perspective from someone who has actually been through it. I asked her why she didn’t scream or kick or do something. [...]

St. Patrick’s Day by John Mayer
“Here comes the cold
Break out the winter clothes
And find a love to call your own

And the rest of you in powder blueWho knows what will be
But I’ll make you this guarantee
No way November will see our goodbye
When it comes to December it’s [...]

“I fought with a stranger and I met myself
I opened my mouth and I heard myself
It can get pretty lonely when you show yourself
Guess I could have made it easier on myself
But I could never follow”
- Dixie Chicks “The Long Way Around”
I’ve never made decisions based on whether or not society approves, other people approve, [...]
Speak! (the way you want)
Posted in My Life on November 8, 2007 | 4 Comments »
I articulate
because I like to be well spoken
Not to appear superior but to make myself clear
Lately something has been bothering me. I’ve been told I speak too formal, pretentious, high… I really don’t know how to describe it, but it really frustrates me when people say that. I love words, expanding my vocabulary and especially learning. I [...]
