This is actually the most profound and appropriate literary allusion I’ve encountered so far this week.
I’m stealing this thing and using it to teach my future students in the future. Yup.

I'm not a Feminist: a brief rant
I’m just not.
And I’m getting really tired of the flustered reactions to my admission that I am, indeed, in possession of a uterus and yet abstain from identifying as feminist. Ladies, let’s be real here, men are not the only ones who need to improve themselves and women are not the only “victims” of society.
I am all for learning to embrace and struggle through the...

Today feels like a Monday, and not the good...
Today started out alright.
I woke up on time.
But between the screaming ulcers, missed class, crying friends, quantity of homework, and impulses to restrict… I guess the key word is today started out alright.
Now I find out one of my lovely bosses “resigned”. I kind of feel like crying, which is weird.

#Hashtag
Hashtags in a Facebook post: #Pointless #that’s not how facebook works #are you new here?
Hashtags in real life: #hellooooo? #this is real life #are you new here?
Hashtags on Tumblr: #why not just use the actual tags?
Exception to the rule = Hashtags on Tumblr: Generally, the hashtags are funny and/or would not fit the length limit of an actual tag.

My job...
So today, while giving a tour of the college campus we started in the cadaver lab.
The female donor’s arthritic hand was the color of boiled chicken. I saw a dead body for the first time today. True story.

Define "shortly"...
Following a nice dinner with my roommate, she gets the following message in her fortune cookie: “An alien of some sort will be appearing to you shortly!”
My immediate reaction? Forget to discontinue the willing suspension of disbelief and assume that the little paper was a prophesy about the Doctor.
Takes a dear friend to listen to this confession and still put up with me. True...

Thanks to Doctor Who, I will always have an uneasy suspicion whenever children play copy cat. Seriously, this show puts me on edge sometimes.

Facebook.... So done.
I am so tired of the five page long arguments. They are consistently insensitive, foul-mouthed, and (no shocker here) redundant. This lovely aspect with the tickling bonus of young girls practicing their inappropriately mature poses has me just about sick.
Is anyone else about ready to pull the plug on Facebook?

Blink Update
Terrible life choice. Why, why, why did I watch the first weeping angel episode alone in my room? Why did my laptop die, leaving me in darkness searching for my lamp? Why is my boyfriend over 1,300 miles away at this moment? I have church in 6 hours.
I can barely stand to watch underwater scenes without holding my breath. Don’t blink? Seriously doctor? Because the blank eyes of statues...

‘Ello Lovelies!
Pardon me, I’m feeling a wee bit chipper. Must be my current, mildly infatuated reunion with the Doctor. So… here’s my life.
Found out where I’m going to live next year (actually starting this May). It has a kitten :)
Lost the front bumper to my car. Insert long story. Probably the long term effect of being backed into by a school bus. Insert...

Hugs and Kisses Lovelies
I have this pressing first-world-problem called: I’m a super lame girlfriend and I don’t know how to be romantic and I have a really great boyfriend and I have day class and work and night class on Valentine’s day and even if I didn’t I would probably be attending my little sister’s choir concert and…sooo

Posting on Tumblr is like talking to your cat. You don’t know if they are listening, and you don’t know if they care, but for some reason, it still helps.
This might be the most accurate thing I’ve read ever

SAT
Look, I get it, the SAT’s are hard. The british equivalent is probably pretty hard too. Having said that, how do you get less than 1000? Scratch that. How do you score less than 900? I’m completely serious. I mean the test is out of 2400. That means that each of the three sections is worth 800 points. So how are kids scoring at literally less than 37.5%?
I’m almost impressed.

Highlight
My knees are bothering me a bit. I just wrapped up an hour long, mile and a half tour around campus in below freezing weather. But the smiling ladies trudged through with me, laughing about the cold and following carefully to avoid ice.
The hug from the high school girl at the end was the highlight of my day.

Happy New Years!
Happy New Years my lovelies! Well, here it’s still 11:33 pm, but just the same. Thank you to those who have offered friendship, support, questions, and laughs. May your new year be full of good food, health, friends, life-choices, literature, and music. Love to you all!

It's a Christmas Miracle!
Between my Dad’s house, my Mom’s heaven-sent baking, and over 48 hours of my Mamma’s (southern grandma) cooking… I have gained a grand total of zero pounds.
Wait, what?
Yep, pretty sure my scale is broken. That, or I have a chronic digestive disease. Or maybe my few hours in the snow magically burned some 10,000 odd calories. Or all of the above.
Either way, the food?...

Spoiled...
Despite the chaotic balance between academics, family, work, sleep, sketchy health, debate weekends, and attempted social lfe… I love my job. Partially for the work itself. Mostly for my bosses.
Today, they left me this cute little chalkboard coffee mug as a Christmas gift for the “teacher someday”.

In Lieu Of A Promise...
Once upon a time, long, long ago… I swore to the good people of Tumblr that I would dress up as Emma Stone’s character in Easy A for Halloween.

Recently, a-nony-mouse whom must have ventured too far back told me, and I quote, “Pics or it didnt happen.”
Well… it happened. And yes, my facial expression is odd.

Naked Face... The End
December 14th marked day 31 and the end of my extended challenge to maintain a Naked Face.
Since then, I have applied makeup three times, once each day.

Middle School
Today marked my last official day with my middle schoolers. I almost cried. Which is shocking in its own right. Mostly though, I just feel so blessed. No matter how poorly they behaved (and man, do I have some war stories) those kids were the highlight of my day. Hands down.
Of course, one of the girls made me promise that I would try to come visit. I did swear on Nirvana. And Kurt Cobain. So,...

Day 17
My Naked Face challenge continues…
Family members have expressed mild to moderate irritation, disbelief, and confusion regarding my choice to abstain from makeup. It’s funny because, it’s really not a big deal, going without makeup. And yet, it is.
I don’t know. Is there a point to this? Does it really matter what I look like? Will being attractive or, at least,...
