i think, dear readers, it may be time for a confession. when i’m not doing homework, or studying, or reading, or thinking, or writing, or blogging, i’m spending inordinate (by which i mean insanely excessive) amounts of time watching television. no really. it would probably disgust both of us if i fessed up to the actual amount. let’s just say i’m basically in a relationship with hulu (http://www.hulu.com/). not only that, i own all seven seasons of Gilmore Girls which i have watched so many times, i’ve now lost count. and if that wasn’t enough, my amazing mother burns DVDs of the shows i can’t find on hulu and mails them to me regularly. that’s right folks, i am a 25 yr old tv junkie. i like to think that this balances out of the amount of time and energy i spend being a huge nerd and maybe makes me somewhat “normal” again. heh, i guess i’m a lost cause. . . . → Read More: reading + video = unstoppable

It is true that we cannot control our thoughts. However, we can analyze why we have them and begin to break down any barriers to progress. . . . → Read More: open letter to white people |
