  1. If you were to press your heart close up against somebody else’s heart eventually your hearts will start beating at the same time. And two little babies in an incubator, their hearts will beat at the same time. Love that. So if you have somebody in your life that is prone to anxiety, like myself, and if you happen to be a calm person, you could come up and hug me heart to heart and my heart hopefully would slow to yours. And I just love that idea. Or maybe yours would speed up to mine. But either way, we’ll be there together.

    I wish this actually happened, but whenever my anxiety-ridden loved person gets attacks, he says it’s better if I leave him be for a few.

    Maybe my heart beats even faster, haha.

  2. todaysdocument: Presented to Congress on January 29, 1866, signers of this Petition for Universal Suffrage included pioneer suffragists Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, and members of the former Women’s Loyal National League, Ernestine Rose, Lucy Stone, and Antoinette Brown Blackwell. This exceptional combination of signatures represents some of the period’s foremost advocates for suffrage and abolition.

  3. I have just realized my awesomeness.

    Again.

    No, seriously.

    This is what I’m going to do when I start to feel anxious about teaching.

    I kind of remembered that I was happier when I kept reminding myself of my awesomeness instead of wallowing in self-pity. For the past three weeks, I’ve been deluding myself into thinking that I am in fact less than awesome and incapable of any sort of higher-order task.

    Which is clearly untrue. Because I am awesome.

    I’m just going to remind myself that I am awesome. And that I have awesome things going for me that will make me an amazing teacher.

    I had three (four) people tell me last week that they appreciated my enthusiasm.

    I am enthusiastic and geeky and stubborn as fuck. And I care about your shit. Therefore, I am going to make an awesome teacher.

    Yep.

    I’m awesome.

    I may have a bruise from clumsily hitting myself on the kitchen table, but that does not detract from the fact that I am awesome.

  4. Something there is that doesn’t love a wall… (by Mimi J) HEY. I accidentally posted this look earlier for some reason. So here I am, reposting it! :D And yes, Robert Frost is probably one of my favorite poets of all time. I can only hope to be able to write as lyrical as he did one day. Also, I live next door to a an who hardly ever goes out of his house. I’m convinced he’s a serial killer. Le outfit rundown: OP: Anna House Shoes: Anna House The rest: Offbrand, baby. ;D

    “Men-ups!” a project by Rion Sabean featuring men in traditional female pin-up poses.

    this is nice.

    HAHA. Okay, this definitely brings to light the ridiculous poses that pin up girls often do.

    Damn.

    I was about to say how sexy these were (especially Mr. Powerdrill and Mr. Bicycle)…

    Ugh, what can I say. I’m a goon for pinups D:

    Ooh Mister Shovel ooh

    Okay Mimeh I'm going to be a total White person for a moment so bear with me. Yesterday on OMG that Artifact I did Filipino tribal artifacts and it made me wonder if you knew anything about the tribes you'd be descended from.

    Hey, boo! :3

    This is quite the coincidence, because my mom told me yesterday that we were descended from Aetas. xD (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeta And this wikipedia article is preeetty interesting.) They actually still exist in the Philippines, but they pretty much live homeless and in squalor. And discrimination against them runs pretty high. D:

    My great, great grandmother married a Spaniard, though. Which, according to my mom, is why we don’t have dark skin anymore or something.

  10. Positively Persistent Teach: Remember Why You Are Here...

    drteach:

    Today, in the field of education it is easy to get caught up in the hub-bub of negativity that surrounds the schools and educators within them. It appears that the profession, which should be held of the highest esteem, is constantly questioned by outsiders debating the worth of…

    I needed that. :) thanks.
