The Best Day of My Life

Hanni, Ariella and I went to a sheep farm in New Jersey over the summer. It was amazing. We tasted 7 sheep cheeses and they were delightful; rich, creamy, and full of flavor. Then... we went to the lamb house. There were about 6 children on the tour- our guide kneeled down and said, "would anyone like to hold a lamb?" I shoved all the kids to the side, and raised my hand emphatically.... then I fell in love. As I was cooing sweet nothing's into his ear, he pooped on me.

Oh, YouTube!

Last night I was doing some research on a play I am studying. I was hoping to find a video on scene study, and I found this. Amazing.

Pimple Scare

Something really horrible happened to me recently; one of the scariest things that can happen in a young woman's life: I woke up with a pimple. Not just a normal, average, every-day, corner of the nose type of pimple. This pimple happened to be right smack in the middle of my forehead, slightly above my eyebrows. Yes, I looked like I was either a traditional Bollywood star, or a middle-aged wanna-be hippie mom at her afternoon yoga class (see below for details).

Was it small and red, with perhaps a happy little white-head? No, it was deep. It might have had its own heartbeat. Do you know what I did? I pulled out my trusty Nelson's Acne Gel, and after abut 2 days of nightly applications that mean old pimple was gone! Bye bye bindi! Hello Nelson's Acne Gel!

"And we pray, everyday everyday"

I finally saw Pineapple Express. The best part of the movie was the use of the song The Crossroads by Bone Thugs N Harmony.

stuff i like...

Anikke & I went and saw Roman Polanski's, Rosemary's Baby last night at the SIFF movie theater. Amazing and Creepy. And worth seeing for the wonderful '60's fashion and decor alone.
