Queenkv’s Brainpickings

and other things

I figured out to bring a little order to the madness on my portal site. I applied Melissa’s snazzy script to the Brain Candy, Ear Candy, and Shout Out columns. Hooray.

So - I feel good about that….

other things to feel good about….

try doing everything from the opposite of your writing hand. ok, i better break that down a bit. in Hankido - we were encouraged to experiment doing some forms for sixteen step, from the left-hand side. Regardless of your good writing hand, our club tends to teach everything from the right-hand perspective. What a frickin’ trip to do things backward. It feels backward. It’s like putting myself in somebody else’s body, when I’m trying to pull these moves off. So, eeck. But, hey, I can do it, if I just focus. Because I’m good enough, and I’m strong enough, and gosh darn it, people like me.

My whole outlook is changing now….this transition phase is blurring what I see and what I know…..eventually I’ll see things from a different perspective, from Chicago, as a grad student. I will no longer be stuck. I will no longer put my dreams on hold. I’ll be living those dreams out - in Chicago

and I’ll have to do it on my own.

I just wanted to share some adorable pix my ediets buddies sent to me….

I also got a funny funnny joke:

Did you know… While both male and female reindeer grow antlers
in the summer each year, according to the Alaska Department of
Fish and Game, male reindeer drop their antlers at the beginning of winter,
usually late November to mid-December. Female reindeer retain their antlers
until after they give birth in the spring.
