left out

In the midst of this Harry Potter craze, I admit I feel a little left out. I've never read any of the books and have seen two of the movies. So, I decided to participate in my own way by memorizing the last two lines of the last book.

Suddenly, I find myself in a strange position of power.

...don't mess with me.

highlights

Emily visited on Monday!

Highlights of the day include buying Pride and Prejudice (Colin Firth) on VHS for $7.98, Cleveland Wok dinner buffet, TeaSource iced tea, and buying various items for our apartment at Unique Thrift.

I love this girl!

my might

To: Rick, who is far away

Today, the sunrise made me older
And I am carrying yesterday
Like a child -
Maybe it will grow up
To be everything I expected
And maybe it will disappoint me
But for now, all I can do
Is hold it, love it, and hope
With all my might
That I do not regret the way
The sun sets upon it

(I don't regret a single day I spend with you)

on the loose

Lots of people save change. I throw all my loose coins into a green tin with the Chinese symbol for tea on the front. Why do I save it? Is it annoying to carry around? Am I too impatient to count exact change when I buy something? It's hard to say.

(secretly, I hope it will magically multiply and I will become independently wealthy)

hooked

today, my aunt unleashed a monster. it's big, bad, and ugly.
its name? unique thrift.

i'm hooked.
