Having fun today. Just hanging out and having a movie marathon with my favorite actor, Alan Rickman. You might know him as Professor Snape in the Harry Potter movies. I first saw him in Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves. I must have been about nineteen years old at the time. I said “Who is THAT?!”…
Romance can be tricky. There is so much pressure from others to be in a relationship – like there is something wrong with you if you are taking time to heal from the last break up. There is nothing wrong with that. In fact, I think there is a kind of nobility about being on…
I know it hurts when someone you love turns around and walks away. It hurts even more to watch him walking along with someone else. Then, he looks over at you like… “See what you are missing.” That happened to me once. I was at a Christmas party and my ex and his new girlfriend…

I’m posting early for the 16th as I’m uber busy tomorrow. Grandma asked me to tell you she loves you and… Yes, you both bring us sparkles. I hope you are enjoying all the Christmas music. I hope finals are going well for you. Please be sure you find lots of chances to smile. It…
Tonight we had our last night of Hebrew School before winter break. We decided to do a gift exchange. The Chanukah Angels were kind to me. I received gloves, socks, candles and the coolest pillow for my new house. You must be sending me your love by way of the Angels ’cause I’m surrounded by…
