fill-in-the-blank friday

via the little things we do


1.   The phrase or punctuation I overuse most is: probably the word 'lovely.'  But it's such a perfect way to describe things, it's a little more meaningful than 'pretty' but more subtle than 'beautiful.'


2.  Today I am thankful for: my mom, for putting up with me when I'm stressed-out and tired and snappish.  I don't envy her having to do that.  And she sends me fantastic care packages like the one I got yesterday, with chocolate chip cookies, hot chocolate mix, a magazine, and tights.


3.  My best friend is: the highly amusing Marissa.  I can't wait to see her soon!  I love that we interact the same way we have since we were 10-- even when she visits me in New York, chances are good that by ten at night, we'll be watching a movie from an air mattress (and by eleven I'll have fallen asleep, and I'll have to ask what happened when I wake up five minutes before the end.)


4.  A quirky thing about me is: I occasionally ask myself, "What would Belle do?" if I'm in an unpleasant situation.


5.  This weekend I: have vast, vast amounts of schoolwork to do.  Tomorrow morning I'm waking up early and heading over to 'sNice, a cafè in the West Village, to get as much done as possible.  Since I'm only doing Photoshop stuff at this point, I can finally work somewhere other than my room.  Yay!


6.  Something that worries me is: the me-first mindset that seems to be really prevalent at the moment.  If everyone is only worried about themselves, we're going to be inhabiting a very unpleasant city/country/world.


7. On my night stand you would find: a little pink iPod stereo, my phone, my journal and a pen, and a small stone owl that my mom gave me because she said it had a maternally concerned expression.


Hope you have a wonderful Friday night!

  1. This is a cool idea. I might do this next Friday. Hope me stealing this idea from you is okay...

    And now I have to go make some hot cocoa because you made me think of how good it sounds.

  2. Definitely! Lauren over at http://thelittlethingswedo.blogspot.com/ posts new blanks to fill in every Friday, and there's a running list of links of blogs that have filled them in. It's how I've found some of my favorite blogs!

    Oh--- hot cocoa, good idea...

  3. I will try this. Seems like fun. Do you get a lot of random people coming to your blog because of doing this?

  4. Maybe one or two per week-- but I love clicking around and seeing how other people interpreted the questions and what their answers are.
