2011-12-29T19:59:13-05:00

The thing I will remember about this year is that even though this was a challenging year for me, I was able to bounce back in the end...literally.

The Best and Worst Parts of the Holiday Season

2011-12-01T22:10:19-05:00

My most favorite things about the holiday season are when decorations in the city go up. Putting up decorations in my house. Pumpkin spice lattes. Ice-skating rinks open up. Bundling up in cozy sweaters. Seeing old and new friends.

My least favorite thing is when there is that pressure to buy gifts, the commercialism that Christmas has become, etc..

In a Former Life

2011-11-03T10:57:46-05:00

I would have been a cat. I love cats. I think they are mysterious and also very independent. I would roam and explore the world around me.

The Hotest Hot Versus the Coldest Cold

2011-10-13T08:37:03-05:00

HOT weather is worse!!!!!! I hate hot weather. I get irritable and tired quickly. It makes me not want to do anything. That's why I love living in San Francisco! Cool weather is just fine with me! :)

Cake vs. Pie

2011-10-04T10:03:59-05:00

Cake. and Pie. LOL. Cake: Lemon cake and for Pie: Banana Creme Pie

If I Could Make an Appearance on Any TV Show

2011-10-04T10:02:30-05:00

It's always Sunny in Philadelphia. I would play Dee and Dennis' long lost little sister.

If I Could Be a Professional Critic

2011-10-04T10:01:29-05:00

Food critic. I like to eat. But being a book critic or film critic wouldn't bad either...I love books and movies...Can't I be all three?

Truth or Dare?

2011-10-04T09:59:15-05:00

Dare. For sure. Be adventurous. You can talk about yourself at any time but a challenge that takes you out of your comfort zone can be more powerful.

Anticipating Autumn

2011-10-04T09:56:03-05:00

I would say that Fall is my favorite time of year because you get to wear sweaters, scarves, gloves, etc. Comfort food. The holidays are closer. Pumpkins. The air is crisper. And it is a time when people get together more (at least that's what I believe).

What I Wish I Had Done Differently in School

2011-10-04T09:53:36-05:00

If I could go back and change one thing about my education, it would be taking more time to think about what I wanted to do for myself (and not for others). I rushed into things, picked a major because it's what everybody thought would be good, made money, etc.

Tearjerker Books

2011-10-03T08:15:46-05:00

Two: Little Bee by Chris Cleave and The Kite Runner by Kahled Hosseini. I would recommend them but reading these books, it haunted me a little bit.

3. My cat, Spock

International Travel versus Space Travel

2011-09-24T09:14:47-05:00

While going to space is a "once in a lifetime" opportunity, I would rather get free international travel because at least you'd have choices. There is only so much you can travel in space. Plus, I don't want to be abducted by aliens.

What Makes Me Smile

My cat, Spock.

What I'd Like a Lifetime Supply of

2011-08-23T09:54:03-05:00

3 things: 1. Lip balm-because my lips get chapped all the time. 2. liquid eyeliner-because I feel naked without it on. 3. Oatmeal-because it's good for you and tastes awesome.

Okay, 1 more thing: 4. kukui oil-because it makes my skin smooth.

What I'd Name My Own Clothing Line

2011-08-18T15:37:10-05:00

Rose Rock. My sense of style is classic, sporty and a little boho.

On finishing books

2011-07-11T10:07:15-05:00

I feel obligated to finish the books I start reading no matter how time consuming the book can be. I bought the book so I need to get my money's worth (even if it is boring). The one book that I continue to give up on is The Lord of the Rings trilogy. I loved the movies but the books are hard to keep up with. I haven't given up though, I intend to finish them no matter how long it takes!

On Money and Happiness

2011-07-10T21:22:30-05:00

Not emotional happiness but if there are certain material things in life that make you happy, then yes. For instance, if you like to travel, collect certain things, or like to live a life full of surprise and adventure...money does help. You can't go on a trip or buy that Picasso without money. If you aren't using money to help fill a void but are truly happy with what you can do and what you have then money shouldn't be an issue.

What I Worry About

2011-07-09T09:25:15-05:00

I worry about A LOT of things. I think I was born a worrier. I worry about the world coming to an end. Being alone. Being a failure. Not living up to my dreams and goals. It's endless but that's how my mind works.

First Impressions

2011-06-09T10:43:01-05:00

One of the first things I notice is how they talk to me. For me, I can see if a person is interested by the way they converse with you. Another thing I notice is their facial expressions. A smile or a look and feel of coldness.

Fiction versus Nonfiction

2011-06-07T07:05:57-05:00

It doesn't matter to me! I love to read anything and everything so it shouldn't matter.

A Graduation Story

2011-05-28T10:32:20-05:00

I will talk about my college graduation. It was on my birthday. It was in a packed gym and it was hot in there. I was both excited and anxious. But I was also ready to get out of there. I saw family and friends but all I could think about was getting up on the stage to receive my diploma and hoping I don't fall on my ass and look like one in front of hundreds of people. Once it was over, it was chaos trying to look for people. It was a good day but by the end, I was too tired. It was time to party, but I wanted to chill. It was a good day.
