Well, Hello.

It’s been a few days since my last update, so I thought I’d pop in and say hello.  I mean, it is the well-mannered thing to do, right?
My brother and sister are both here, so the whole family is together for the holidays.  It feels so weird to know that this is my last Christmas [...]

Twenty Dozen Cookies Later …

Um, that would be twenty dozen cookies baked, not eaten.  And yes, I think that’s a record, too.  Moving on, four things:
First of all, whoever Googled “Mr. Heatmiser Christmas ornament,” please let me know if those actually exist because I would love one.   And a Mr. Snowmiser ornament for good measure.
Second of all, which do [...]

Storm Watch

Apparently, Indianapolis is under a winter storm watch.  In a matter of hours, the expected amount of snow went from one to two inches to five to ten.  Considering I have yet to see a single snowflake, I think the meteorologists are being a little dramatic.
However, impending doom in the form of a snowstorm prompted [...]

India-No-Place

That’s what my AP US History teacher called Indianapolis. He’s pretty much right, but here I am, back in India-no-place for a month long celebration of Christmas, New Year’s, family togetherness, and ridiculous amounts of road construction. Hello, Indiana.
The funny thing is, whenever I drive by myself, I never have any problems. [...]

Ode to Leftovers

Oh, chicken spaghetti, I’m sorry we forgot about you and relegated you to the back of the fridge for months.  I’m sure you were delicious … if you are into Ro-Tel, Velveeta, chicken, and spaghetti combined into one horrifyingly cheesy dish.  You were well-loved by all who consumed you (not me).  It’s not anything you [...]

No, Really … NOTHING.

You know, I don’t really do anything wrong.  I’m not bragging or being conceited; it’s the truth.  I didn’t drink before I turned twenty-one, and I can count on one hand how many drinks I’ve had.  Granted, my twenty-first birthday was barely two weeks ago, but the important part is how I’m almost done with [...]

Who Needs to Read?

I do!  I have my English final tomorrow morning at 10:30, and I need to finish re-reading the last short story that will supposedly be featured on the exam.  I’m not quite sure how I feel about the exam yet; I’ve made A’s on everything except for one test (and no one did well on [...]

Wow.

Someone searched “minor personality crisis” and got to my blog.  I’m not sure what that’s supposed to mean, but hello and welcome.  Also, you can get here by searching “quarter life crisis, my daughter.”  I have a pretty good feeling that that search is not from my mama as she spends the majority of her [...]
