Proving Strength

..., many of the Alphabets screaming excitedly at the top of theirs lungs, hoping that their words would bring the youngest of the team some strength. It did little to help him. Right as a minute had passed, Dorian ...what he felt. Z had put up a good fight and pride swelled in the Major’s chest towards the youngest on his team. He even gave the young man a pat on the back, muttering a “Well fought” in...

Film reflection...

After watching the film 500 Days of Summer last night and wishing I hadn't, I happened to listen to my youngest aspiring-filmmaker brother's interpretation of it today. What heard from him was something that I felt but was not able to vocalize until now. It is a story about a man who meet a woman, falls in love, but not getting the woman. It is not a love story although at first glance it is...

... concepts. Cloning, bioengineering, genetic manipulation. It might as well be magic. All I know is this: Many years ago, the M’t’k stopped mating. The sky dance ceased. Many seasons went by, the youngest M’t’k became adults, but the dance did not resume. They did not mate. Environmental factors, it was said. The consequences of actions we took, and did not take. The land suffered. Some animals, ...

Mega Holiday Entry

... dying. Because she was careful and responsible with it, they got her a replacement. She's so excited to be able to take pictures with her phone because the older one didn't do that. This is my youngest niece's first phone, so I called her directly, on her new phone, and she sounded like she was bouncing off the walls! Both girls are enrolled in various activities, and it's good they've got phones...

Yayyy Christmas!

... I got thermals, which will come in handy for cold rides and the like. It was a nice mix of useful things and fun things. Everyone really seemed to like the gifts I got for them. My youngest niece seemed a bit shellshocked by having multiple gifts all pushed at her last night. She seemed to like what I gave her, though. Oldschool 80s My Little Pony movie... need to start the addiction young. ...

Not a fan of today

I haven't done the Xmas morning thing in ages, since my parents split up. Part of it is everyone's grown up now of course, the youngest person is like 17. But it's also that everybody's spread out everywhere, that people aren't talking to each other, that some are ridiculously and insanely dirt poor while others are selfish and greedy and off on their own little holidays. We have our Xmas meals ...

...too. 4. Do you still maintain quote lists? If so, what do you do with them now? Not in explicit form, at the moment. I considered maintaining one for work-related quotes, but being the youngest (and least jaded) in the lab, I knew it wouldn't be especially well-received [and disproportionately laden with quotes from Donghun]. When I take classes, I still include the quotes in the footnotes of my...

... enough to make me less spaztic over my own chest. :,3 SHE THINKS I'M FLAT. AWWWW. The youngest child was greedy and was sad that there wasn't "enough presents" even though dammit there were too many in my opinion. (DAD YOU GUYS ARE POOR WHYYYY ARGHSFLDKS) I really was annoyed by the youngest. . .not for being an annoying sister but she has the personality type that makes me want to smack someone...

Well, we did Christmas eve, but deferring Christmas dinner!

... veggie platter and nuts... and chocolate cherries to pass around after the Bible reading. The charities this year were my son's unit (care packages to the troops) and the USO, and a family that my youngest sister Sue knows. For those of you who don't know, several years ago I started substituting charitable contributions for the gifts. If you take $20 a person times ten people, that's a $200 ...
