Year: 2007

  • Something about being here

    Here I am, in Washington – near my parents, my high school friends, and all the other things I’ve tried running away from.  You would think after six years I would come to terms with all the memories associated with this place.  But it seems that I haven’t.  It seems that every time I return…

  • Funny Thing – Time

    I wish it were possible to pause time.  Long enough to enjoy the great moments and to catch up on all things I set aside in order to be there for those moments.  However, I would not trade those great moments for anything and they were worth every single sacrifice. This past Sunday was amazing. …

  • So… That Didn’t Work

    Tonight marks the end of one part of my life and the beginning of the next.  I have a plethora of thoughts running through my head but I’m finding it difficult to put it into words.  There’s excitement and curiousity about what’s to come, but also a bittersweet nostalgia of all the things that I’ve…

  • “Get Out of My Brain”

    I am sure that this topic has been explored by a variety of Women’s Studies essays and daytime talk shows, but I wanted to touch upon this after sharing a couple blog entries with a friend. When are girls taught to hate themselves?* I refuse to believe that this is an innate state that we…

  • wishing on a star out of reach

    Is it wrong to wish for something (seemingly) larger than yourself? For as long as I can remember, I always wished for a different life than the one that I found myself living at any particular moment. I’m not unique in this manner, I am sure. How many of us are dissatisfied with our lives,…
