When my brother and I were working our way through the Doctor Who new series to catch up to Season 5 (which we watched with the rest of the world, finally), illegally I might add, some episodes were missing. Recently I discovered the magic of Netflix Watch it Now, and at the same time realized that seasons 1-4 are available for it. So I watched them all, again, discovering three new episodes we’d missed the first time around. But more importantly, I finally watched the two-part episode that led up to the Matt Smith regeneration. Continue reading “The David Tennant Epilogue”

Doctor Who and issues of trust
A couple months ago I wrote a post about Doctor Who and the state of the world. Essentially, if you’re too lazy to read it, I discussed how watching Doctor Who has changed my perspective on life in a radical way. And since writing that post, I’ve recognized some other things about the show that I wanted to talk about. Continue reading “Doctor Who and issues of trust”
Why I loved the Harry Potter Epilogue
And when I say “epilogue”, I mean the last couple pages of the Deathly Hallows in which we find out that Ron and Hermione are married and so are Harry and Ginny, and they all have kids at Hogwarts. Harry’s named his kids after important people in his life, and there’s this nice little moment where you understand that from now on, everything is going to be ok.

Drinking away… what exactly?
My brother keeps asking me if I’ve gone to any wild parties whilst being away at college, any wild parties I failed to discuss with my parents or my blog because they’re too… wild. Every time, I snort and ask him if he remembers who he’s talking to. He shrugs and asks me again a week later. Continue reading “Drinking away… what exactly?”
Princess LIAR
Since about the beginning of this month I’ve become inexplicably re-obsessed with princess movies. Specifically, Disney princess movies. (Also The Swan Princess, since I don’t think she’s technically Disney). So in this past month, I’ve watched Beauty and the Beast, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, The Swan Princess, and The Little Mermaid. And after careful consideration, I’ve come to the conclusion that none of them are actually in love with their princes. Continue reading “Princess LIAR”

The Art of Forgetting
If you know me, you know that I forget things. A lot. I forget to text or email people back, I forget to do chores even when I’ve been given them a mere few minutes before, I forget to do homework, I forget to meet places, and sometimes I forget important things like textbooks and names and wallets and room keys. And I want those of you who I’ve ever forgotten to text/email back to understand something: it’s not you. It’s me. Continue reading “The Art of Forgetting”
Long Distance Relationships
It’s weird that I think about this subject from time to time, seeing as I’ve been awfully candid about the fact that I haven’t actually had a relationship at all in over two years. But I do think about it, and though a blog would be the best way to organize all my thoughts on the matter. I’m also curious as to the other responses you all will have. Continue reading “Long Distance Relationships”
Davy
During the summer, I came to this exact Borders almost every morning of the week. That meant that the morning baristas generally got to know me pretty well, and vice versa. We were all pretty much on a first name basis by the time I had to leave for college, and they were always so nice to me, so I felt like I owed them something before I left. So I left them a note and about a seven dollar tip before I left the cafe on that final day of summer freedom. Continue reading “Davy”
Zoo Lights [Oregon Style] Also… SORRY!
I’M SORRY!! I would explain why I’ve been mysteriously absent for the past week… and a half… but I’m hoping to make a video to explain those things soon. Short excuses:
1. Traveling
2. Finals
3. Traveling
4. Disney World
5. Being sick
Hopefully I’ll feel well enough to post a video tomorrow… but in the meantime, blogging will RECOMMENCE on Friday. Cheers!
