Amore
I am absolutely in love with words. Smitten. The taste of them as they roll off my tongue, the smell of them as they describe a fire, or the erratic nature of them spewing out of someone who is angry, like when you get the brilliant idea of spraying the hose directly skyward and big, fat drops fall all around you.
Words. They can be combined, tweaked, shortened, slurred, muttered. Each and every...

My stomach is seriously churning thinking about how not a word of this is uttered anywhere unless you’re really looking for it. It’s up to us, ladies and gents, to spread the word and get more people in the know.
Reblog this, reblog links, videos, articles, and pictures! Post them to your Facebook, Twitter, Google+… anywhere you can use your voice. Contact media outlets and question...

Astronomy is so beautiful; this is what NASA and our innate obsession with star-gazing has gained us, this knowledge. We need, more than anything, to continue exploring the universe. It is vital to understanding ourselves. Each part of you is from some...

Not so lazy-days.
I’ve had a really good two days. I had a nice, relaxing day with my boyfriend yesterday. We spent the day watching movies, tv shows, and napping and then we went to get Mexican food for dinner and then went for some unlimited bowling and games at the Memorial Union on campus.
Today wasn’t quite as relaxing but much more productive. I went and talked with my advisor about finishing my...

Bibliophile

Warning: This post contains major spoilers for “The Hunger Games” and Mockingjay. Read at your own risk!!
