i have cool glasses.

considering that without the modern luxury of contact lenses, or the not-so-modern luxury of spectacles, i am blind as a bat, i have to say that i am very grateful for my glasses.

not only are they beautiful inventions that help me see farther than 5 inches from my face, they are also super awesome.

exhibit a)



the eyeglass company is Goldfinch, and the frame is called "depp," after the legendary actor of the same name. nerdy eyeglasses are great, because not so many people are socially comfortable (or awkward) enough to wear them, and even fewer can pull them off.

i believe that i am one of the people who can *not* pull them off. but that's opinion. they're awesome and i love them.

another random tidbit of information:

if i had more money than i do, and a better perception of myself, i would by my clothes from people tree. their clothing is fantastic: it's fair trade, so it's economically, environmentally, and ethically conscious. i find that really important, and a rarity with most clothing.

also, they have a new line designed by the harry potter actress, emma watson. who is fantastically beautiful. she currently attends brown university, where my sister's friend goes. my sister's friend has hung out with emma watson for a few hours. how's that for six degrees of separation?

back on topic.
they have super cute; chic; and, like i mentioned earlier, conscious clothing.

now, i'm a girl who loves her sweaters, and they have a great line of sweaters and cardigans.

unfortunately, though, their clothing isn't cheap. one cardigan is about £115. i don't have that kind of money. so no cute, socially conscious clothing for me. *sigh*

oh well, though. life does go on, and i can find my own fair trade clothing lines that are close to home.

cheerio!

I'm already not doing this too regularly.

Still, it's only been four days, not several weeks. Progress is happening here, my friends!

Home sick today with some sort of eye infection.
Woke up at 2:45 AM, and I couldn't open my eye--it was sealed shut. Gross. Really, really gross. Anyhow, my eye is now swollen, puffy, red, and the skin around it (my cheek and such) is red and inflamed as well. Got a strong antibiotic and ReNu teardrops to - hopefully - turn things around a bit.

Anyhow, enough about my sorry state of physical being.

I'm currently watching Bones season one. Gotta love that show! Temperance Brennan is such a great character; one of my heroes, possibly.

I have a new-found budding distrust for somebody very close to me. We'll see how that progresses.

Moving on from the goings-on in my life:

Is curling possibly one of the most ridiculous Olympic sports in history? I understand that it takes a decent amount of skill to push a large rock across ice and stay balanced while pushing a broom, but it seems kind of odd. It definitely is not a very action-oriented sport.

Mr. John Travolta is kind of intimidating looking with his hefty body type, shaved head, and goatee, non? I mean, check this out:



Not exactly the type of person you'd want to run into in a quasi-suspenseful situation, is he?


Anyhow, more later.

Until then,

Molly

molly's first post.

hullo there,

i'm giving a blog another go; hopefully i'll keep this one regularly.
the reason i decided to do so is because i saw that two of my friends had created a blog.

this inspired me.

so, hopefully, i'll actually update this blog on a semi-regular basis.

cheerio!
