It’s that time again!

This past week has been a bit crazy…the worst of it hitting yesterday. But I might actually see my first jewelry design classes actually form, so I guess it’s all good.
I’m also wrestling with issues of the Notebook. We’ll see if rolling into October changes any of it.
The Reader is amazingly low on fun stuff. […]

This week was slightly more interesting

Things have been utterly crazy this week. The only books I’ve read have been two manga volumes late this week. Those who follow the Notebook have probably noticed it’s been conspicuously absent all week. iGoogle has some sort of connection error (that I can’t find any information on) every single night right as I get […]

Funny effects of blogging

After last week’s post on cleaning out my feed aggregator, I thought it might be fun to do this every week. If nothing else, I figured it would help me keep my aggregator under control.
Well, it’s worked very well. Last night, while waiting to see if the correct Funimation property would show up on Cartoon […]

Cleaning out my feed aggregator

This morning, I’m trying to get rid of all the saved posts in Google Reader, and I thought I’d drag you along for the ride! (Besides, no one’s asked any questions, and I don’t feel like reviewing the book I read yesterday.)
My favorite WordPress blogger Lorelle wants to know about my favorite or worst blogging […]

Should I sort my quotes?

If you’ve read this site for any length of time, you’ve probably realized I enjoy collecting quotes. I have a very nice hardcover journal tat i keep some of them in, and then I have a section in EverNote dedicated to them. Occasionally, I thumb through them and pick up some wisdom or inspiration.
In fact, […]

Intelligence breeds unhappiness

Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know.- Ernest Hemingway
I’ve been thinking over this quote over the past few days. Some people tell me I’m entirely too sad. I personally don’t find myself down that often, but people perceive things differently.
So far, the best I can come up with is that people are […]

I’ve been hoarding quotes

It’s time to move some quotes I’ve been sitting on to my quote file!
“Leadership is demonstrated at the moment of need. You learn to be a leader by acting, by doing.”- Carlos Ghosn (Source)
“Disobedience, in the eyes of anyone who has read history, is man’s original virtue. It is through disobedience and rebellion that progress […]

Sometimes, it’s all about the journey

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.-Douglas Adams

I think this quote sums up everything I feel about my life at the moment. The being lost. The seemingly random (but actually subversively planned out) casting about for identity, for path.
This is […]

Face your fears

“You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the thing which you think you cannot do.”
-Eleanor Roosevelt
Fear is a self-limiter.
If you don’t believe me, write down every goal you have currently. Then write down next to it why you aren’t […]

Some great quotes

I’ve been gathering links for the past couple of week, and just need to share some of them with the world!
“The remarkable thing about Shakespeare is that he really is very good, in spite of all the people who say he is very good.”- Robert graves
May I someday be so fortunate!
“A myth is a religion […]
