I like this passage:
“You are good indeed,” said Beauty. “I assure you that I am pleased with your heart, and when I think of it, you do not seem so ugly to me.”
“Oh, as for that, yes,” replied the beast. “I have a good heart, but I am still a monster.”
“There are men who are [...]
In the Eye of the Beholder
Foreign Find: M Pokora
While standing at the cash register at American Eagle Outfitters the other day, I had my eyes pasted to the tv screens. It was a music video with Timbaland, and the French/Polish hip hop/R&B/pop artist M Pokora. He’s been dubbed as the French Justin Timberlake, but I can some differences. I actually thought he looked [...]
“Hot Fuzz”
Monday was weird, no I take that back, it was just plain random. For starters, I spent most of the day running through my flashcards in preparation for the PTCB exam (for my pharmacy technician license). When my apartmentmate and I arrived at the testing facility around 3:30 ish, I was taken aback by the technical protocol. I had to [...]
Sunday Throwback: “Les Sucettes”
Before Lil Wayne’s infamous hit, Lollipop, there was Serge Gainsbourg and France Gall’s Les Sucettes. After resurrecting some of my old essays, I found one from a Popular Music course that I’d taken during Freshman year. There were some notes on this song, which had apparently been quite a hit with the almost blatantly obvious [...]

Me wants, me likes:
Inked
I’ve been secretly toying around with the idea of getting a tattoo for as long as I can remember. In fact, I found one of my earliest journals from a while back, with ideas for potential body art. It’s rather fascinating (well at least for me) to read my writing, because I must’ve been 13 or so at [...]
I want to get away
If circumstance permits, I want to set myself free on one of those exotic vacations that only National Geographic journalists would dream of. I mean, I’d love to sport one of those retro fanny packs, with a bright visor, and whopping Nikon camera around my neck as I visit all the typical touristy spots, but every now [...]
Dance…like nobody’s watching.
Note to self: I should really make an effort to remember that our neighbors have a preeetty clear view into our apartment…as we do theirs.
After making a quick run to Baskin Robbins for the Tuesday dollar scoop, I was feeling pretty amped with sugar. When we got back, my room mate started playing Black Eyed Peas’ “My Humps” off of her [...]
Pivot!!!!
This was supposed to be a hardcore-study-3-day weekend.
Keyword(s): supposed to.
Technically my extended weekend started on Friday since I didn’t really have class. My apartment mates and I had dinner at the little Greek Bistro near our place on Friday night. Our Turkish sub letter was flying off to Chicago, so we all wanted to have [...]
