Superflous Advice

Should they whisper false of you,
Never trouble to deny;
Should the words they say be true,
Weep and storm and swear they lie.

The Dawn Of Awareness

For as long as I can remember I always thought I would be good at blogging. I mean, I used to be good at keeping a diary. And then Life Happened. Its now been 2 years and I only have 5 posts. Guess that's what you get when you try to juggle arch school with anything else. My 5 posts aint even that interesting. So, I am switching it up a little, instead of attempting to blog about my social life (cause clearly I have non during the semester) I will blog about general stuff that catches my interest (celebs mainly - match making. Yay) So the Golden Globes nominee list is out and here are my predictions. Granted I haven't seen all the stuff here but I know what I like...
