A song ran through my head last night. It went like this: If I could sing you a song At the dawn of the night When the sky is so inky And the stars are so bright When the beautiful Father Whispers down to his daughter Don’t you know that I’m holding you tight Tonight…

Please do not read the book “Haters.” It is very weird. The MC is like, psychic. Things just get weirder and weirder as the book goes along. The only reason I kept reading it for so long is because I have a secret love of high school drama and fascinating mean girls. This book had…

Sick of the neglect I have given my blog, that is. Poor thing.  I vowed to never give up blogging for facebook, and then I gave up blogging for inkpop. That is about to change. I’ve decided to give myself a 7 day challenge. I’m posting once a day for seven days. Ha! Take that,…

Answer: Chaos Sarah and Lucy are two little girls that usually come to ESL class, and they don’t really like each other that much. I’m not sure why. Sarah is always mean to Lucy in subtle,…

I think Spring is, hand’s down, the best season ever. Everything is green and fresh and just being outside fills one with boundless joy. I titled this post “spring” but I’m mostly going to be talking about what’s going on in my everyday life. My life slowly plodded along in the winter, but with the…
