*I’ll start off today’s Tell-All by telling you an embarrassing little tale that has nothing to do with the kayaking picture above. So on cruise ships, they have lots of different entertainment options at any given hour–everything from ballroom dancing lessons (which we did, surprisingly) to fruit carving demonstrations (which we, unfortunately, did not). One of …
Tuesday Tell-All
*Wanna know one of my favorite places to relax? In front of one of our bookshelves. Just sitting there. I can’t even describe what it is, but I just love running my eyes over the titles, dreaming of the books I’ll be reading soon (or not so soon). Every few minutes, I’ll pull down a random book …
Tuesday Tell-All
*After months of sweat, toil, and constant vigilance (largely on the part of Matt, let’s be honest), our own little cosmos plants have grown and flourished from the tiny seeds they once were. Isn’t that magical? Of course, it’s nothing short of a miracle that they’re not all dead, considering that Matt and I kept …

*I still haven’t recovered from our crazy wedding weekend–probably because I’ve only gotten about 9 hours of sleep in the last 48 hours, I’m carrying around three extra pounds, and my feet still have blisters from walking around so much in heels. It was totally worth it though. *You may (or may not) be wondering …
Tuesday Tell-All
*So I’ve worked out this deal with my friend Petrice where I’ll watch her kids a few times a week while she goes to the gym, and, in return, she got me a month pass to the rec center (which I mentioned that I really wanted in last week’s Tell-All). This morning commenced the tradeoff, …
Tuesday Tell-All
*Apparently you can do loads of creepy stuff on campus during the summer because there’s no one around to keep your social-appropriateness-scale in check. I mean, I was practically having a photo shoot in the library, and no one was the wiser. Of course, the real question is, why would I want to have a …
