As the headline suggests, today I am talking about bullies and insecurities.
It shouldn’t be a surprise that I would eventually have a blog post that talked about bullies and insecurities and that sort of thing. In the kind of world that I have wrapped myself in, these things seem to be pretty prevalent.
I’m going to start off by saying one thing…Peter Jackson is a god. In the words of our Tabitha, Peter Jackson doesn’t make movies…he makes films. These are so true. Now, I have a respect for Guillermo del Toro, though I’m not a big fan of his movies…but I’m so glad that Peter Jackson was the final director for The Hobbit.
Today, I was going to work on several blog posts: a Book of the Week post, a midseason finale post on The Vampire Diaries and Arrow, and a review of The Hobbit, which I saw last night.
I was on a high, extremely happy. I had a good night with my friends last night, eating good food and seeing The Hobbit at midnight.
I woke up to an absolute tragedy, a shooting at a Connecticut elementary school, where it is believed that 27 are dead, 18 of them children.
Today, I took my final examination for my children’s literature class. I know, I’m really sad about it. I am definitely going to miss this class. Its crazy how I took this class on a whim and it has been one of my favorite clases that I’ve ever taken.
But anyway, one of the questions on the final was to discuss the two different views on using young adult literature in the high school curriculum. Which got me thinking of course.
Its been FOREVER since I’ve done a Book of the Week post. Its been so long that I cannot even remember what book I did for Book of the Week.
I’m also doing Book of the Week on a Monday instead of a Friday.
The best part? This Book of the Week is COMPLETELY spoiler free!!!
Today, I’m here to talk to you about love. Yes, love. I’m talking kisses and hugs, and forever, and all that stuff. Love. True Love.
Now, I’m not going to sit here and claim that I know everything about love, because I definitely do not. I love my boyfriend sooooo much and we have been together for nearly five years. But we learn every day how to make our relationship work and how to make it better. And it’s not easy, but it is most definitely worth it. I will never know 100% about love…or even a 100% about my boyfriend…but that’s the best part, it keeps things new and, like I said, its completely worth it.
