That Little Spark: September 2010
http://yourlittlespark.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
So, I'd like to say life is going fabulously and I just have my moments. That's not exactly the truth. Life is good. My classes are going well. And I really like the online format, now that I am focused on what I really want to do (write. duh). But, the area that is getting me down is finances. Am I broke? Not exactly. But, I will be very soon. So, my mom just told me to be careful what I write on my blog. That "the Navy might see it." Who gives a fuck? But, there's nothing on here about "oh I was so dru...

That Little Spark: January 2011
http://yourlittlespark.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Spelling out loud, in a foreign language is hard, if you don't write the word down first. Yup, guess who learned that lesson. I have no idea what I was doing. I'm not sure that I want to minor in Spanish anymore, it just doesn't seem like a good idea. I'm thinking that a double major in marketing and communications. Who knows. I've been tutoring students for the CA High School Exit Exam for about the past week and a half. I've learned that asking "is English your second language? I was actually soaring r...

Kaps Kids: When Mothering is Made Ugly
http://kapskids.blogspot.com/2015/04/when-mothering-is-made-ugly.html
Tuesday, April 14, 2015. When Mothering is Made Ugly. There are days when mothering is the picture of what you dreamed it would be:. Bare toes dangling above the floor, messed hair, sleepy eyes, rosy cheeks that smile at you from behind fork-fulls of pancakes. A couch full of littles all snuggled up against you, reading stories full of adventure. Listening to their giggles. Sweet conversations about grace and forgiveness and the fresh snow all over the steam of hot cocoa. Lies of the enemy poured out fro...

That Little Spark: Look who's back!
http://yourlittlespark.blogspot.com/2011/12/look-whos-back.html
What kind of shit is that? The semester is over- finally! I know what you're thinking- I don't want to be an opinion writer. I mean, sure I can write opinion well. At least, I can write it well now. It's just not my thing. I want to write sports. I grew up playing sports. I grew up around sports. It's what I love. Remember that conference I posted about a few months ago? Sorry, that was quite the mundane list. And this was quite the mundane post. I should really try to get back into this thing.

That Little Spark: Epiphany
http://yourlittlespark.blogspot.com/2011/06/epiphany.html
You can now access my blog on your phone! Yup, blogger added another new feature and it makes it easier to be viewed on a smart phone. The never ending name saga is OVER! I am no longer in an identity crisis and officially have my maiden name back :) It was such a drama to get it switched back. But, I got it done for free (minus the pesky DMV fee for my license). The people I remember are the people who got tattoos with me, that met me in the driveway with wine, that helped me move out, that drove down j...

That Little Spark: February 2011
http://yourlittlespark.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Twice this weekend I have heard the same thing. Something that I didn't know was true, and I'm still not sure it is. Twice people have told me this weekend that I look happy. I most definitely have my moments. But, am I truly happy. Well outside reports say that I am. So, either I am actually happy and I have been fooling myself for a while. Or I am realllly good at acting like I am okay. So which one is the truth? I am absolutely uncomfortable with my own body (minus! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

That Little Spark: Royal Reality
http://yourlittlespark.blogspot.com/2011/04/royal-reality.html
The whole concept is overwhelming. Catherine is a commoner (which in and of itself is a hard concept for an American to grasp). But, 29 years ago Catherine was born. A year prior Princess Diana married Prince Charles- who was in love with Camilla Bowles, but she was "unsuitable." When Catherine was born, commoners did not marry royalty. The fact that Common Catherine is now Catherine Duchess of Cambridge is huge. But, who could be in Catherine's shoes right now? Would that not be some serious pressure?

That Little Spark: JACC- Part 2 and Looking Forward
http://yourlittlespark.blogspot.com/2011/04/jacc-part-2-and-looking-forward.html
JACC- Part 2 and Looking Forward. I learned some incredible things this weekend. I just wish that I would have had more time to attend more lectures. I got to attend two. two. I'm a bit upset that I didn't get to go to some more. There were some that I would like to have seen. But, now I know for next year. Yes, next year. If I stay at this school, then I fully intend to write and be an active part of the newspaper. They never should have let me go to this conference. April 12, 2011 at 4:47 PM.
