{via weheartit} I am not on top of things all the time, even though it might seem that way (and I wish I was). Sometimes I just want to hide under a blanket and cry. I am not someone who likes hanging around a big crowd, I am much better with...

On who I am right now

April 29, 2010

I am… … feeling a little bit stressed out and unmotivated lately, which is a clear sign that I need some time off, like NOW. (Oh wait, my trip is only a week away! Weeeee!). … acting a whole lot like a headless chicken, because I have so much to...

Things you wouldn’t know: Long division does not equal long division

April 8, 2010
