Check THIS out
Okay, you guys. My best friend’s mom is a wedding planner and she is great. Look here! Even if you’re not getting married anytime soon! She’s just so good!
I stumbled (okay, facebook creeped) across her website today and I was just really floored. She is based in the DC/Metro area but she could probably pull something together everywhere!
This makes me want to puke. Preferably on these...
her: i have always wanted to play soccer its really fun the coach told me black people cant play so ohwell
me: if i can play soccer ANYONE can play soccer
me: wait but the coach really said that?
her: lol :):)
her: yea i told the princple and she said well he is the coach
i'm so angry right now. this is a fourteen-year-old girl being told she can't play soccer because she's black by not one but TWO adults with authority in her life.

Cuss less. Like way less.
Calm down about school. I am not normal in that regard.
Walking away, without saying something I’ll regret, when I’m angry.
Sing in the shower more.
Look in the mirror and...

I would have loved to go to the children’s bookstore in Beijing especially!
I agree! I’d have loved that bookstore when I was a child. Shakespeare & Co. in Paris is a must too.

Thus Far
Today has been great. I woke up a few minutes before my grandparents arrived, and I got to listen to the sounds of Christmas: the parents rushing around, my mom’s distinctive “eh eh eh” laugh, my brother’s tv blaring in the next room.
My brother’s tv blaring in the next room. Should I go in there? Would that be weird? I used to do it all the time, or he would...

And Suddenly, on Christmas Eve,
it dawns on me that I have yet to wrap anything. And that I never got anything for my baby brother.
Ouchers
I was explaining to my mom about how my brother will post a facebook status like “what’s up fool” and 40 people (no joke) will like it and I post this hilarious thing about how I fall into a ditch in front of an oncoming vehicle and run away laughing like a maniac and I’ll get like 12 people, and she comes back with
He has a lot of friends.

Lemme Just Say
1) I tried to think of a nickname for Tumblr and all I came up with is Tumby which is too stupid for words and therefore I will not be utilizing that one.
2) I had a post a week or so ago about my brother wanting to name his (nonexistent) a cappella group “Pitch Slapped”. Two nights ago I was watching “Sing Off” with said brother/the rest of the family (quite...
