Suzy Pepper to Rachel: “Let me tell you a few things I learned from two years of intensive psychotherapy and an esophagus transplant. Lesson number one: You and Schue, it won’t work. We’re not so different, you and me. We’re both mildly attractive and extremely grating. Love is hard for us. We look for boys we know we can never have. Mr. Schue is a perfect target for our...

Now that Ramadan is over, what I’m going to be doing is to get in insane shape. Yes I know I’ve never been a super-fit person in terms of cardiovascular fitness and stuff, at least not since I was in track back when I was twelve and sucked compared to all the other athletes but was still fit enough to keep up. In decent shape often, in terrible shape often, but never super fit. I am...

I am going to make my poor little sister my educational guinea pig, now that she is in A’ level and I am in charge of her education. Practice for me churning out amazing holistically knowledgeable students for when I am an actual teacher. So she does Bio, Chem, Physics and Psychology but I am going to buy books in ancient and modern history and economics and plenty of good fiction and all...

I am finally having a serious and solid impact on helping my country.
A couple months ago I made a citizen mobilization website and form (link to form here) to try and keep up an organized movement in the country that was not of political origin and would be highly efficient in terms of reach and influence. I didn’t have enough influence as a one-man show not even living in the country...

WatchI’ll admit I am completely hooked on this show. This is one of my favorite covers from it.
The best spam post/comment I have seen so far
This is the story of a day where there was all this blood. A man was walking around and blood started coming out of him everywhere. There was so much blood that it filled up an elevator. He went to the store and there was just blood all over the place! People were slipping in it and they were all grossed out. He tried to go swimming and all of the sharks went nuts and bittened everybody. He got...
I’ve now finished high school and am set to go to university. And all I feel like is that I’ve missed out on so much, there have been so many things that I didn’t do or feel or experience during those teenage years and that now I’m growing up, in many ways I’m already somewhat older even mentally than high school age, and so I won’t think or feel the same way...

Why Iceland Should Be in the News, But Is Not →
OH MY GOD YES YES THIS IS WHAT I’VE BEEN SAYING SHOULD HAPPEN FOR SO LONG! The people themselves writing a constitution of their own, from neutral people, without politics, using the power of technology and the internet, etc.
An Italian radio program’s story about Iceland’s on-going revolution is a stunning example of how little our media tells us about the rest of the world. Americans...
People are meant for company. You could be leading a great life, doing things that you want, occupying your time with things you enjoy- but somehow, there’s part of you that needs other people’s caring or affection to be all filled out and proper and whole, and without that it withers up and you just feel like part of you is withered up and miserable. It’s what makes you feel all...

To everyone who sent me a message congratulating...
myadolescenceispersonified:
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I love you all! I sincerely had the time of my life during this revolution. You have no idea how lovely it really felt to feel like a part of something. To those of you who don’t know…they captured two of his Gadaffi’s sons, one of them turned himself in and now we’re just waiting for Gadaffi himself. But TRIPOLI IS OFFICIALLY FREE....
For my followers who know about this, the link here is a download link for my still in progress and very much unfinished but quite close to done story. It’s a full novel length thing, and sort of a romance kind of thing set in Malaysia but also with an angle on the situation re: government and dictatorship in a new post-revolution democracy (the Maldives), as well as about growing up and...

Weed
fedorahblah:
I don’t want you to do weed now. Not that I don’t want you to ever do it, just that it’s not good to do it when you’re sad. Once you’re happy, we’ll do it.

whispermollywobbles:
This is absolutely one of my favourite moments in the Anne of Green Gables miniseries.
Let me just wax prose…tic about this scene for a moment. Here we have Gilbert Blythe, catching a glimpse of Anne Shirley (who refuses to give him the time of day) and Diana Barry having a chummy moment on the bridge. Gilbert has been… interested in Anne (going by the book timeline) since...

Quotes
The first three books of the Anne of Green Gables series are just the most wonderful thing. Read Harry Potter, Narnia, and those: that’s the best advice I can give you in life.
“I read in a book once that a rose by any other name would smell as sweet, but I’ve never been able to believe it. I don’t believe a rose WOULD be as nice if it was called a thistle or a skunk...

‘Oh’, she said. ‘Yeah, that does kinda suck. Doesn’t it suck how all of us pretty much have to just try and live up to something else, no matter who we’re with? The funny thing is I bet all of us would love to just be ourselves and not be judged for it, but somehow all of us still have to live up to a certain expectation because if we don’t all of us will get judged, too? Maybe in every single...

There’s that one moment, the one moment when you’ve figured out how much you’ve really let go. How much you’ve grown. It takes you back a step and makes you think. It’s that moment when you can’t look back, yet you can’t seem to look too far into the future either. It’s that moment when you realize that you’re living for yourself and no one else.
