When a Woman Loves a Man by David Lehman
When she says margarita she means daiquiri.
When she says quixotic she means mercurial.
And when she says, "I'll never speak to you again,"
she means, "Put your arms around me from behind
as I stand disconsolate at the window." He's supposed to...
PS
By hilarious, I mean I almost spat my water out at one point.
Yeah.
Go see it.
Saw No Strings Attached.
Actually amazing.
Hilarious, quotable. Everything I like in a rom com!
Made a vegan cake today!
Was actually one of the most amazing cakes I’ve had, flavour wise and sooo moist.
It won’t be pretty, but I’d recommend it to any chocolate lovers.

There are now about 5 videos of me reading aloud
Just so I can decipher this. It’s not that I don’t know what’s being said. It’s that I have to figure out how to put it in modern english, where para-phrasing isn’t allowed.
Dear Lady of Bath:
I accuse you of run-on sentences that are ridiculous to translate grammatically without paraphrasing.
How do you plead?
Legally Blonde the Musical is coming to Vancouer
I don’t see a lot of Broadway Musicals (Actually, I don’t see any as I’m broke and would have to drive down to Bellingham to fly cheap anywhere, and as my dad can’t go to the states… that’s all on me, and guys… Your streets and highways in the states are whack. They intimidate me), so when they come to Vancouver, it’s kind of a big deal. I...
Time to translate some Middle English!
Wooo!
Say these words: Aunt, Route, Wash, Oil, Theater, Iron, Salmon, Caramel, Fire, Water, Sure, Data, Ruin, Crayon, Toilet, New Orleans, Pecan, Both, Again, Probably, Spitting image, Alabama, Lawyer, Coupon, Mayonnaise, Syrup, Pajamas, Caught Now answer these questions: What is it called when you throw toilet paper on a house?
What is the bug that when you touch it, it curls into a ball?
What is...
Watching Sherlock
Modern day Sherlock Holmes. He’s a sociopath. Watson’s former military doctor. Sooo hooked.
“I’m in shock, look! I’ve got a blanket.”
BBC is always amazing. I’d recommend this with every fibre of my being.
Craving sushi.
I'm getting really excited for Saturday.
Edit: I don’t know why that posted before I wrote anything -__-
Ok, so my friend does fashion design, and a while ago he asked a friend and I if we’d model for his Victorian Doll accessory line. Obviously, we answered with a resounding YES.
Well, it’s almost that time, and although I’m excited, I’m also nervous. You’ve seen my GPOYWs. I can’t take a...
Aww, yess. Say Yes to the Dress: Atlanta
Wedding shows are my guilty pleasure.
Is is sad that I’m delighted sociology got cancelled so I could watch this?
Happy Robbie Burn's Day, Tumblr!
Anyone wear a kilt?
I think this is where I make a poop joke to...

This weekend’s been weird. I keep waking up in the morning at odd hours, fully awake, and I can’t get back to sleep. So I lie there and think, “What the hell am I doing with my life? What if my grades are shit this semester? What if I don’t make it to UBC this year? What am I even studying? This now, but I’m flakey. If I change my mind, what to? What am I going to do...
Why I hate winter:
It is a LOT less fun running around in your underwear when it’s cold, than when it’s swelteringly hot.
Please reblog this if you have a heart:

Designing a cake for my friend's 20th
20s themed 20th birthday. It’s going to be awesome.
Sometimes I wish that Russia still owned Alaska.
Because then, I could just drive up to Russia.
Also, I feel the Russians would totally be the type to try and build a bridge to Russian Alaska, then I could drive to Europe.
Also, Russian would be more available in Canadian schools as a second language.
Need to start thinking about my Anime Evolution...
I mean, I know I have till like August, but last time, we kind of did our costumes last minute..
Don’t know who I want to go as, though. My friend wants to go as someone from Tron.
So, apparently there is now a device that can read...
It’s called digital pick pocketing.
If someone is smart enough to build this, then fuck it. They can take my money, they deserve it.
But in all seriousness, now I need to get a case thing you put it in to block the machine…
I'm in the best mood today.
Just happy. That’s all.
Update:
So I’ve gotten rather sick, and my back is killing me. This wouldn’t be an issue if I had nothing to do, but I have a dentist appointment, work, then heading to see a friend. Can’t call in sick, as we’re doing a big catering.
Bleehhhh. I am doing NOTHING on Saturday and Sunday. I’ll watch movies or something.
Funniest thing at 1:30 am:
Writing “Prince Humperdink” in a legit, second year university english class.
At least my prof will remember me.
I hit 1000 Save On points!
So, of course I called my mother while she was in Summerland to tell her the news!
“So?”
“Mom, it’s a big deal! 1000 points!”
“Alise, I have to go.”
“FINE! See if I call you when I hit 10,000! Then you’ll be sorry!”
Haven't been able to stop listening to Rent...
Why is no one online?
I don’t mean on tumblr. I mean msn, Facebook chat, skype?
Please don’t tell me I’m the only one procrastinating on the internet.
The Verdict
4 tea bags are not enough. Next time, 10.
Also they are fun to throw at the walls. They stick.
And I smell like chamomille.
Whoever used up all the hot water is dead to me.
Being the naturally curious person I am,
I decided to put 4 tea bags into my bath.
Oh geeze, it's 12
Need to re adjust my sleep schedule, or it’ll be one long week.
I suppose that means sleep should occur.
Like now.
Yesss…
