Narnia

Oh my gosh things have been crazy! I started a new semester and its going really well! Here is my schedule:
Mod 1- Algebra
Mod 2- Government
Mod 3- Chemistry
Mod 4- GP Literature 
I have first lunch though (11:00-11:30) which is a change from last semester when I had second lunch (11:30-12:00) I liked second lunch better but I'm so glad that I have a lot of friends in first lunch! Algebra is ok, Government is my favorite, Chemistry is awesome and GP lit is ok. I usually love English but our English teacher makes us fall asleep. Her voice is a lullaby!
I have to apologize for the lack of posting. I have been feeling uninspired/the winter blues. :(
But this weekend was wonderfully blog worthy. 
Friday night Mom, Steve and I went to Steve's mothers house for dinner with his sister and her assorted hangers on, ie. 4 children, oldests' boyfriend, ex husband and current husband. That makes for a crowded dinner table.
Saturday we saw the Illusionist at the Bethesda Row cinema. (Steve loves going to the movies. we would go to the movies every night if we hadn't already seen everything.) I thought it was really sad but everyone else thought it was beautiful. It was but it was still really sad! I just discovered that there is a crepe stand outside of the theater. You must understand that if it were possible, crepes and I would be an item. We also made more CUPCAKES! This time they required an adventurous trip to Wegmans in search of agar flakes. Agar flakes are a seaweed used as a vegan thickener. Sounds gross but the cupcakes were really good.
Sunday was superb. One of the grad students who lives upstairs, Ginny, found this amazing park. Its hidden away between two houses and you can't hardly find it unless you aren't looking, earning it the nickname, Narnia. There are swings and a place to have a picnic. It really is like your own magical secret garden. I will have to take you a picture the next time I am there, but as promised this is a no picture post.
So how was your weekend? I can't expect you to sit and listen to me without me listening to you.

Happy Blogging everyone!

confessions and obsessions

All right, I must confess a few guilty pleasures
1. Reality TV
2. Trashy magazines
3. large doses of caffeine (so not a secret)
There are more: donuts anyone? But the subject of this post is far more user friendly.

Yes its true that even the best of us bloggers fall prey to the fashionable clutches of Gossip Girl. Who else could rock a school uniform the way these girls do?

                                                    

She may not be a Gossip Girl, but who can forget Rory Gilmore's Chilton years?

 Or the Britney themed Glee episode

So maybe we all have a secret obsession with the classic Good girl/Bad girl plaid skirt thing. 

I know this is mainly a picture post so there will definitely be more writing next time.

Valete!
