  • Vik: How was the Career Fair for you?E: I didn’t go.Vik: YESSSSSS! Secretly, I have to admit that I wonder if I should have gone. But then, not so secretly, a voice inside me goes, "Elise, follow your passion." And to be honest: that voice is very loud.  And also very controlling. I love that…

We celebrated 100 more days of school at Traddies.  And then at Mardi Gras (apartment complex, not New Orleans).  And then at 9-0.  And then I believe some celebrating went on in the hallway. So what this really means is 99 more days.  I cannot believe that.  I cannot believe that I…

  • I have officially been to ScrapbookLand.  Like Disneyland, it is very brightly colored.  Like Disneyland, there are a lot of fake flowers.  Unlike Disney, there is a lot of chipboard shapes and stamping ink.
