Happy Halloween!
I’m going to Friendly’s in my costume. I’m fully ready to get stared at. And then I’m going trick-or-treating. Yes, I am 20 years old.
46 things about me
1. I’m the biggest spelling and grammar freak I know. Please learn to speak your language correctly. 2. I’m really weird with telling people things. I don’t trust people easily. If I trust you, it’s a big deal. If you break that trust, it’s an even bigger deal, and there is pretty much zero chance of you ever getting it back. 3. Theater is fabulous. I love it. Seeing...
I want a tattoo.
I’m just too afraid to get one.
But if I were to get one, I think I would get the final lines of The Wizard of Oz: “No matter how dreary and gray our homnes are, we people of the flesh and blood would rather live there than in any other country, be it ever so beautiful. There’s no place like home.” Okay, maybe just the “there’s no place like home” part....
When you know the notes to sing,
you can sing most anything.
Doe, a deer, a female deer. Ray, a drop of golden sun. Mi, a name I call myself. Fa, a long long way to run. So, a needle pulling thread. La, a note to follow so. Ti, a drink with jam and bread. That will bring us back to doe.
When I grow up...
...I want to be a famous writer. …I want to marry a handdsome, rich, fabulous man. …I want to have three daughters, all named after my favorite heroines in my favorite books. …I want to star in a Broadway musical. …I want to have a mansion. …I want to have a limo, complete with chauffeur. …I want a pony. …I want to be Julie Andrews. …I want to see...
These are a few of my favorite things.
In spirit of the 45th anniversary of “The Sound of Music” and the cast’s appearance on Oprah, I’m going to make a list of a few of my own favorite things. Lindsay’s Favorite Things (in no particular order) 1. The Wizard of Oz: Probably my favorite obsession since the age of two. It’s the first thing that really taught me to imagine, and that I can do whatever...
I just joined LiveJournal.
I only did it because they have this really cool Harry Potter thing. But I feel like I’m cheating on Tumblr.
My Halloween costume
is probably the most epic thing that has ever lived.

Why today rules:
1. I got an A- on my play revision. 2. Despite the fact that my Greek & Roman Drama professor is a ridiculously difficult grader, she gave me a B+ on my second paper. After the first page she wrote, “Fantastic introduction! Why can’t I have more Lindsays in this class?” I smiled. 3. My mother informed me that I have $300 more than I thought I did. She just hasn’t...

My mom: I know. Everyone loves their mom. But I love mine a whole lot. She’s done so much for me throughout my life, it’s unbelievable, and I never really get to tell her how grateful I am. I want to. She’s my role model and my inspiration, and I love her more than anything.
Taylor: When she was first born, the last thing in the world I wanted was a baby sister. Now she’s...
Today...
I was very sleepy. Michelle made me pancakes. We had the big/little reveal. I was sad because this time last year, I got my big, and now she isn’t here. I really miss her. I went to Michael’s with Jess. I took a nap. I went to meeting. Jess got me for the little Secret Sister thing Cara’s doing. I laughed when Cara wouldn’t let her trade. We went to the diner. I ate...

So I need to be badass...
We have a mixer on Friday with ZBT, and the theme is superheroes. Honestly, I like villains better than heroes, so I need an epic outfit for a female supervillain. I need suggestions. Immediately, if you please.
Why do I always stay up so late?
I swear, tonight I’m going to bed the moment Glee is over. I really wish I had a break today.
Oh, KP. How I miss thee.

Happy 10/10/10.
I ate at Chipotle for the first time today. It made my heart hurt. And it made me very gassy. But it was pretty delicious.
This may seem like pure irony because of the above paragraph, but I really need to lose weight. Like, it’s not even a joke anymore. This is absolutely ridiculous. FML. I love food too much.
I have a paper due tomorrow, and I don’t know what to...
Body and Soul * Charles Wright
The world’s body is not our body, although we’d have it so. Our body’s not infinite, although This afternoon, under the underwater slant-shine Of sunlight and cloud shadow, It almost seems that way in the wind, a wind that comes From a world away with its sweet breath and its tart tongue And casts us loose, like a could, Heaven-ravaged, blue pocket, small change for the hand.
I...
Famous * Naomi Shihab Nye
The river is famous to the fish.
The loud voice is famous to silence, which knew it would inherit the earth before anybody said so.
The cat sleeping on the fence is famous to the birds watching him from the birdhouse.
The tear is famous, briefly, to the cheek.
The idea you carry close to your bosom is famous to your bosom.
The boot is famous to the earth, more famous than the dress shoe,...

Today
I wrote something I actually like.
I realized that I have entirely too much homework over the course of the next week.
I’m jealous that I don’t get off for Columbus Day.
I’m going to see the school play.
I feel shitty.
I took about twelve naps.
I got three packs of Harry Potter Silly Bands and two Glee mixes in the mail from my home best friend.
My roommate went home for...
I'm having the week of my life.
I am literally having the worst week ever. I need a hug. But the people I’d like hugs from aren’t here.
This sucks.
