I know I already posted something today, but as it’s Valentines Day and I wrote that review weeks ago, I felt like you all deserved a slightly more personalized post. It’s a holiday. Sort of. And instead of writing you a Valentines day song (which I’ve been known to do in the past) I thought I’d just write you a philosophical rant of sorts.

Matched book review
You know I write dystopian society novels. You know I read dystopian soviety novels. And you know I love them. I love the espionage, the revolutions, the romanticism of “what if?”. So naturally, when a package of books arrived for my birthday and I read the sleeve of Ally Condie’s Matched, I was excited. Continue reading “Matched book review”

Why I hated Romeo and Juliet
I hope I never led anyone to believe that I liked the drivel some people consider “the greatest love story of all time”, because that would be a gross oversight. I didn’t like Romeo and Juliet when we read it my freshman year of high school, and I don’t like it now. Continue reading “Why I hated Romeo and Juliet”

Talky Bloggy Blog of Poetry, Love, and Cookies
I feel like I haven’t just talked to you all in a while. Not without a topic, or an agenda. It’s been all book reviews and Doctor Who life lessons. So let’s talk.
Today I thought to myself I should write poetry more often. Not because I think I’m any good at poetry or anything. I just miss writing it. It’s refreshing to leave out important transition words and just focus on the details. Like how sadness smells of cigarette smoke and half eaten meals, and tastes like lukewarm earl grey tea and stale rice krispie treats. We don’t notice details like that anymore. That’s what I love about poetry. Continue reading “Talky Bloggy Blog of Poetry, Love, and Cookies”
The Whoverse and the Briblogosphere
I should really be in bed right now. No, but really. I’m already sleep deprived as it is an dangerously close to falling behind on my classes. Yes, already. That might just be the exhaustion and pre-stress talking, but whatever. On a vaguely related note, I feel like I haven’t just talked to you guys in a while. That will change… soonish. Not now. Maybe not even this week. But I promise to post a talk-bloggy-blog soon. Ish. But I really just needed to get this post out. Continue reading “The Whoverse and the Briblogosphere”
A Reprise
Right after I moved into college, I posted this blog about how many nerdy things I had around my room. Since posting that blog and living in the dorms for several months, I’ve accumulated more things. So here’s my updated list of nerdy stuff I have. You’re welcome. (New things are in bold)

Anna and the French Kiss
I think I’ve mentioned on this site before that I want to be John Green when I grow up. I want to write books and make YouTube videos for a living and have an adorable baby and be awesome. That sentence made sense at the beginning… ah well. Anyways. Recently, John has begun advocating a book, Anna and the French Kiss, in his videos, and I was curious, so I asked for it for my birthday.
