My first book post in ages yay! Last month I only finished The Intimate Adventures of a London Call Girl by Belle de Jour... which, although in parts was very amusing, on the whole was rather too raunchy for me to think of anything to say in a blog post! Since then I've finished North and South by...

"When your life is on course with your purpose, you are your most powerful." - Oprah "Have you ever watched someone do their job and thought, 'I can never do that. That's not me.' It's an important thing. To be able to determine what we can and can not do. What fits and what doesn't. Who you are and...
Oh, it's on now!! And the irony? I "started' the challenge even before I knew one was going on. XD Well, I started this earlier, so I guess it still counts, since the thing goes on from July 1 to December 31st. :) <a...

the idea is to complete 101 tasks in 1001 days. i got the idea here. i love love love making to-do lists, but they are always so mundane and uninspiring. which is fine, i mean not every day can be brimming with adventurousness and sparkling lights....but the thing about my normal to-do lists is that...
One of the main reasons I'm posting my summer reading recap so late, is that I've tried to post it several times and gave up because I realized how boring it is. At the beginning of the summer I set a goal of seven specific books to read this summer, and I ended up reading all of them. The books...

[Post is still under development.] You may have noticed that I'm something of a sucker for reading challenges. And I'm signing on for yet another. Fortunately for me, this one does not actually require me to read 1,001 books. The challenge for 2009 is to read 10 books from the 1001 Books You Must...
Ok so áfter reading Michelle and Kristie's plans to do it, I've also decided to sign up for the Everything Austen Challenge. So here's my list of Austen related things I'm planning on doing before December as a part of the challenge, but keep in mind it's pretty tentative I might do different...

Part 1 - BBC Miniseries and Score Part 2 - Book Part 3 - Differences Between the Miniseries and Book They're...
