It is hard to know, sometimes, which organizations are the best to donate money to. But I really liked the idea of this site. Plus, it's not donating, it's loaning the money.

so... I have a boatload of money and if you have a favorite organization/cause/whatever, comment and maybe I will donate money to it.


p.s. Merry Christmas! My family got me socks, shoes, sweaters, a giraffe necklace, and learn Chinese CDs.
For my birthday I also got shoes and a sweater, and a turtle necklace.

I am a horrible person.

This was mine:



It'd be cool if you watched it for me.

It's been a slow Saturday.


( lyrics to a favorite song of mine )

Nostalgia.

From the greek word nostos, meaning homeward journey, and the suffix -algia which means pain or painful condition.

This morning I was in this quiet spot on campus I haven't been since last autumn. Rarely do I feel the -algia part as much as I did then.


I have learned a lot from classics class.

Today was a happy day for no particular reason.

I fell in love with the library yesterday.

I wandered in and couldn't leave. The folded paper crane among the books, the girl I talked to for hours, the maps, the books, piles of homework...

maybe we will have a happy life together, the library and I.
