Look at the picture below, and see if you can find items from 100 movies. List them below:
I've been interviewing GA candidates for the past week, and there is one question that I have found particularly interesting. It reads, "You only have enough time to get to know a group of people. You can only ask them one question. What would you ask, and why?" Some of the answers weren't too special, but there were two that stood out to me. The first was unique and interesting. She asked, "What kind of music do you listen to that you don't let anyone, including your friends, know ab...
Finding Love... Online? Since writing Part II, things have changed. While Zach and I have had some communication over MySpace and Facebook, we have not spoken on the phone. We have not talked about getting together again. I wonder if he's changed his mind since it looks like I might be moving 10 hours away... Kinda sad because I like the guy, but I'm not broken up about it. I'm neither giving up hope, or getting my hopes up. I'm also not making first contact again. He still has time...
I started working on this a long time ago... and I've worked on it sporadically ever since. Before I continue with it, I thought I would put the beginning up here to see what everyone thinks. I hope you enjoy it. It's titled "Elemental" CHAPTER ONE Lindarié had never felt such grief. She took the heavy crown off her aching head, but could still feel the incredible weight on her heart. She looked at the crown’s jewels, glinting in the warm summer sun and felt her eyes tear in their...
Some of you will say I should have told him. Others of you will say I did right. It really doesn't matter now, as I can no longer tell him. However, I have to tell someone. So I will tell you. It was July 4th. I had gone to visit my boyfriend because I had a few days off, as did he. We hadn't seen each other much lately, so we spent little time... ah... "catching up". We weren't having sex because I had gone off the Pill due to some complications I had while on it. We were simply d...
Yes, I am, indeed the Queen of the Klutz People. Allow me to explain: I have four visible scars from curling irons. I have three visible scars from hot glue guns. I have two scars across my fingers from shutting my fingers in a car door. I have a slice across another finger where I deeply cut my finger with a butter knife while attempting to slice a lime. (guess why) I have a 3 inch scar on my leg where I cut my leg shaving in the ninth grade. I have a lovely scar where I burned an...
I feel as though I have been lax in my geek duty to you all. I have not reviewed any fantasy books! I don't know what go into me. To make up for that, I will do my first fantasy review on what is possibly my favorite trilogy to date. I will spare you all my reviews of Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter, since I suspect most of you have either read the books, watched the movies, or heard enough about them. I will begin, instead with: The Deed of Paksenarrion The Deed of Paks is, a...
A friend of mine has an indoor dog -- a Shitzu named Izzy. Unfortunately for him, he can't seem to house break her. She has the unfortunate habit of pooping and peeing where ever and won't use her mats. He is gone for a large part of the day, so he has a hard time training her. Any tips?
I am a member of the Honors College here at my campus. This is an unusual community: we don't simply take "honors" classes, as is typical of most honors colleges... we take specially designed classes first as a part of the Honors program, and then you present a paper to become a part of the Honors College for your Junior and Senior years. We do an undergraduate interdisciplinary thesis, and graduate with a minor in Interdisciplinary Studies. We all live together, from Freshman to Super-Sen...
I had great hopes for this St. Patrick's day. This was my first St. Patty's day legal and free. I'm over 21 and I didn't have to work. I was heading out of town to hang with friends. We were supposed to live it up. Hang out, have fun. We were going to pub crawl until our knees gave out. Unfortunately, most of this didn't happen. I watched my friend work for 7 hours, played with some kittens, and fell asleep watching x-men 3. On any normal weekend, this would not have been too bad, ...
Oh, the Chiquita Banana.... so wonderful in so many ways. It's full of potassium, it adds a little flavor to your smoothie, it offers a smile when someone slips on its peel. And now? Turns out it supports terrorism. From 1997 to 2004, Chiquita Banana company apparently paid 1.7 million dollars to a terrorist group for protection. They are now being charged 25 million by the US government. For more info: Link How, exactly, can the "War on Terror" ever be won if things such as t...
A bad habit: I have a hard time finishing ...
I remember "Don't ask, don't tell". I've heard people complain about gays in the military, and people complain about the people who complain about gays in the military. I've heard people give excuses to why gays should not be allowed in the military, but honestly? I don't understand. I am not in the military, so I don't know how that life is different from mine. I don't see why it would be a problem, but apparently it is. So, what's the deal? Can anyone explain it to me? Does homo...
For anyone keeping up with my life, you might remember my attempt at Internet dating. You might also remember that I actually met someone that I have enjoyed talking to. You might also be aware that I made a wish list to Cupid, and I am happy to report that, thus far, Zach (that's his name) meets every single one of my requirements. Recap: 1. I want a man. He has a real job. He is a teacher. He seems mature, honest... just what I asked for. 2. I want a man with a sense of humor....
Long? I haven’t been here long. No, not long. I have been here forever. I don’t keep up with the nights, the days, the meals, the sleep. I don’t keep count. Not anymore. I used to keep count, but I was afraid it would turn me crazy. Crazy? That’s why they say I’m here. I don’t know what I have, but they say I have it. I don’t agree, but they don’t mind. They bring me in, they sit me down. They watch me, always. I sleep, I eat, I hide the pills. I won’t take the pills....
