That's right friends, my cousin is doing a give away! Details here !

I totally understand teachers in Junior High and High School requiring a specific length for writing assignments. We were bratty teenagers who just wanted to be lazy and we didn't think we could even write 2 pages. We needed the length requirement to teach us how to write. Once we reach University level we should already be capable of expressing ourselves without someone forcing us to come up with content to fill space. If you ever, in your career-life, are given a writing assignment, I highly doubt your superior will tell you that you must fill three pages and each paragraph must be at least a half page in length. No, that's ridiculous. He will ask you to address all aspects of the topic maybe even as concisely as possible. (Which we all know I'm awful at). Sure, some of your paragraphs may be a half of a page or longer, but what of that one that's just a quarter page? Requiring that it be a half page almost ensures you will get a quarter page of redundant crap...

Well people, I’m getting married in 44 days. NBD. It’s just one of the most important days of my life. Whatevs. Totally not freaking out. Cool as a cucumber. In other news, we’ve taken our engagement and bridal (or groomal, it’s a real thing) pictures. We had them done by Angela Marie Photography. This is one of the lovely sneak peeks she put up of our engagements. Michael and I are super cute, huh? So there’s this girl in my Greek and Roman mythology class who has long blonde hair, kind of. Right down the middle of her head she has a line. The left side is completely blonde, and the right is super light brown. Crazy, huh? Not only that, but her eyebrows are the same way! Her left eyebrow is so blonde you can barely see it, and her right eyebrow is the same light brown. I don’t know how those things even happen. I read a story online once about a 100% African American couple giving birth to a very white and blonde baby. The baby wasn’t albino, and it was proven to belong ...

As much as I love Michael, and as much as I love the fact that I'm going to marry him, I hate being engaged. Planning a wedding. Not fun. Not easy. Planning a wedding while going to school and working. Nearly impossible. Not only are we busy trying to get all of these things ready, but we are also finding that learning to work with someone else is hard. When it's just you you can do what you want. You don't have to think about how your actions will affect someone else. I mean you should , but you don't have too. Well, being engaged means thinking of the other person and thinking of the future in every decision you make. People should think of those things anyway, but when you are planning and preparing for a life with someone it makes it even more important. I think one of the things my betrothed and have a problem with is that in our time as single people we have become somewhat unmoldable. We were so focused on becoming someone and being that person no matter ...

Well people, it's happened. I'm engaged to the best man in the world! My fiance (ooh), Michael and I are getting married in December! I am so excited to spend the rest of eternity with my best friend! I love you Michael!

Original post here . Here’s a look at 20 reasons to date a writer: Writers will romance you with words. Dating a writer means that you will receive love letters. Quirky notes will turn up in your pockets. Flowery descriptions of everything great about you will be shared on special occasions. See my recent post on things to write someone for Valentine’s Day for an idea of what you may receive when dating a writer. Writers will write about you. Date a blog writer and you’ll find yourself bookmarking that blog to see if there are references to you in it. Date a poet and you will see yourself reflected back in some of the lines of poetry that the person recites at open mic nights. Your narcissistic tendencies will be happily fed when you date a writer. Of course, the drawback here is that dating a writer means that personal details about you may turn up in written form and the writer may write much less flattering things about you if you break up . Writers will take you to interesting e...

I'm back! Let me throw out the excuses as to why I haven't blogged in eons. (And at least one of them is legitimate). 1. I'm working a lot. I don't really have much time for a blog. 2. I'm dating someone. Once again, an issue of time. and 3. The charger for my laptop is busted. So my computer has been dead for almost a month now. But now that my roommate is home I can mooch off of her charger! Woo! I'll by a new one eventually. Now is when I ramble on about my life, so if you could care less, feel free to navigate away from the page. Like I said, I'm dating someone. He's pretty great. His name is Michael and I adore him. It's safe to say that I'm in love and I am happy. And this Saturday I'm going to Pennsylvania with him to meet family. That's a big deal, or at least that's what everyone says when I tell them. I'm pretty excited. :) I got a great job! I work for Domo Technologies as a Quality Assurance Engineer. The...
