Note: My ratings go from G to R, but they are only rated for occasional strong language, violence, and dark themes. I don't write smut. I also don't write slash or incest. (You can find great stories that contain those elsewhere!) I use the common person A/person B pairing tag to designate a relationship of any type in my stories. So f/f, m/m, or brother/sister would never be sexual.

Part 3 of my stamps! These contain all Disney-related stamps and stamps from other animated movies.



( a beauty, but a funny girl )

Mercy. There are so many gents that'd I like to take me out on a date.  I can't possibly be expected to chose just one, but here are a few that come immediately to mind.

1. Charlie Weasley
2. Mr. Darcy
3. Patrick Jane from The Mentalist
4. Bruce Wayne
5. The Transporter
6. Mr. Rochester

I've decided the the perfect man must have the passion of Rochester, the generosity of Darcy, the manners of Stevie D from Betsy's Wedding, the sense of humor of Jim from The Office, the body of the Transporter, the goodness of Jean val Jean from Les Miserables, and the fighting skills of John McClain from Die Hard.

Unrealistic?

I think not.

Dang, I actually like corny jokes. They make me laugh for reals. I'm a dork, I know.

I don't believe in luck, but that's a pretty good screencap!!!

"No one I met at this time — doctors, nurses, practicantes, or fellow-patients — failed to assure me that a man who is hit through the neck and survives it is the luckiest creature alive. I could not help thinking that it would be even luckier not to be hit at all."
George Orwell

"In my experience, there's no such thing as luck."
Obi-Wan Kenobi

"Shallow men believe in luck, believe in circumstances. Real men believe in cause and effect."
Ralph Waldo Emerson

"The harder I work, the luckier I get."
Samuel Goldwyn

I am far too experienced with finding the right materials to bring! I usually bring several books, not only because I get bored, but because I'll finish one. I usually bring a favorite book that I've been wanting to reread, a longer, more serious book, and maybe one more if I have an especially long flight. Movies are so difficult, but I usually bring a few tv show dvds, more to watch in the terminals than on the plane.

I've been super close with my friend Katelyn since KINDERGARTEN - it amazes me, we have a lot of similarities, but enough differences to still make fun of each other! Since 6th grade, we've both been close to Naomi... the three of us hang out the most often of our friends from highschool - they both go to the same local state school - and even though I'm 5,000+ miles away, I still feel close to them. Thank goodness for Skype! Another close friend is Sonia, she was an exchange student from Korea. I've never really believed in kindred spirits (as in Anne of Green Gables), but, I swear, we hit it off so fast, it made me a believer. I so happy that I've moved to Korea and get to be close to her!
I love my friends *heart*

golly, I don't know why I actually thought I might be less busy once I got to Korea, but that is definitely not the case. I've been so busy (with lesson plans, school, traveling, shopping, cooking, hanging with friends), that I haven't had time for hardly anything online. I've been neglecting my writing and HiH and that makes me sad. I have Thurs-Mon off for Chusok* (Korean harvest) holiday, and it is my goal that after I get Facebook pictures up and do my lessons for next week, and get everything else settled, I get some writing done. It might just be typing up my journal (that I've also had no time for), but I might get some drabbles / one shots written, I've actually been missing them!

Annyong** for now!

* or Chuseok
**or Anyeong

I start my first day of school tomorrow - teaching!!

Since I'm coming in late, I don't really know where the students are in the texts, but I should be able to whip up a couple of lesson plans :D
Going to get to work now...

Summary: Two short stories that compare and contrast the same theme of finding hope in difficult situations. Two women, two countries, two decades.
