Since apparently anytime I encourage the men in my life that they can be better = I'm accusing all men of being potential rapists, let me be more specific in why I want you to read/watch the things I post on facebook.

You do not have to be a rapist yourself to allow rapists to get away with their crime.
I think I'm being pretty generous in not ( Read more... )

Assholes like to belittle women’s rights activists, dismissing us as “angry feminists.” Normally I bristle against stereotypes of any kind, but especially ones that try to limit who I am as a person. I’m not a bitch. I don’t hate men. I shave my legs.

But I am angry.

I’m angry that systematically, across the nation, at different levels of government ( Read more... )

Yes, I'm still blogging about December. My blog, my rules, right? Right.

Between Bordeaux and Paris, Kate and I spent three days in Niort, mainly to save money on lodging and food. We didn't do much in Niort (not much to do in my town, honestly), but it was nice to relax. Of course, we did go out one night...

...to Uncle Sam's karaoke bar. Oh, yes. ( Read more... )

So, this isn't my personal bucket list that I've put together, but a meme/email going around that I stole from the beautiful Allison.

Like she said, it's amazing how much I've done already in less than 24 years. I'm so young but I've lived so much. I hope to keep living my life like  this!

Woohoo! Wrote this for the title challenge at getyourwordsout . Barely squeaking in with the deadline (love different time zones!). Inspired by real-life moments between Jeremy and me, but none of these conversations happened exactly like this. In fact, the only episode that's pretty accurate is the second one. Enjoy!

Interview Meme
This is the interview meme from stmargarets. (Edit: for whatever reason, livejournal is not recognizing stmargarets as a user. Very strange).

→ Leave a comment saying you want to be interviewed.
→ I will respond; I'll ask you five questions.
→ Update your journal with my five questions, and your five answers.

I've been a bit melancholy lately because I'm in France for Christmas. And I know you're probably thinking, "Wow, poor you, being in a beautiful country for Christmas," but I'm not with my family, and they matter more than France. So I have several versions of this on my Spotify Christmas playlist, and I always get a bit sad listening to it ( Read more... )

A Walk Down Memory Lane: Danse de Noel

This is the first year since I was 17 that I won't be attending the Debutante Ball. Now, granted, even if I were home, I probably wouldn't go this year. It's more for college students than recent graduates. Last year was the last year that I could consider any of the debutantes friends. A few girls who were ( Read more... )
