As some of you may have noticed, my last post was a reblogged post from aliceatwonderland. I ran across her blog while skimming through the FreshlyPressed page and clicked on her post on Epic Quests and Crap Like That. And I liked it. Of course! So, I did what you are supposed to do when…
Lifestyle- Lessons and Thoughts
Thoughts from another awesome blogger!
This is truly perfect and I couldn't agree more with everything Alice says. I'm so glad she got on FreshlyPressed or I would have never have found her awesomely quirky and witty blog.
Eat, Pray, Love, [write]
One of my favorite books of all time is "Eat, Pray, Love." When I first picked up this book I was really unsure if I would like it, let alone that it would have a great impact on my life. That all sounds like really grand statements I am sure, but I wholeheartedly mean them.…
This epic(ish) life
I don't know about you but my favorite stories have always been the great epics. Where evil has a truly terrifying face and is epitomized in one being that once conquered frees the world of a great hurt. Of surprising heroes that never thought of themselves as heroes- just trying to survive and do the…
Blogging Nomination
Now that finals are over (hooray!!), I can focus on real-life instead of that foggy place called academia. Hopefully, I can also focus on one of my favorite things to do- writing in my little corner of the blogisphere.

Creative Camaraderie- The Lion Awakes
I remember when I was about twelve or so, I picked up The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe at the public library. It was a winter evening when I first started reading it and I snuggled up under the blankets in my bed after school and my cat was laying on my feet like…
Social Simplification
So, I deleted my Facebook....AGAIN. I know, I know, I have a Facebook deactivation problem. But, I think this time I really am going to stay off. You may think I have some serious issues (and perhaps I do), but I just get tired of it. Hopefully I am not the only who has wanted…
My Originality Conflict
My book list is constantly growing. In fact, it is ridiculous. I am constantly scribbling down books professors suggest or ramble off during class, as well as things I come across in my reading for my english classes, blog book reviews, and my own avid curiosity to find good reads. But then I read something today…
Historical shenanigans
For the past few weeks I have been following the updates from the Richard III Society about what is now called the Grey Friar's dig in Leicester which is now under a car parking lot. My freshmen english research paper was on King Richard III and his part in the mystery of the princes in…
