so. it’s almost 3:45 in the ay em. i am still awake. this has been the theme of my “christmas break”. something that a lot of normal people don’t know about 3:45am is that good tv is sparse. there is absolutely nothing on tv but infomercials. but why watch an infomercial about a juicer that [...]

last night, i was up until 7am. which i guess qualifies as this morning, rather than last night. this is what happens when i have multiple days off in a row. what did i do until 7am? watched youtube videos. not even kidding. it is entirely too easy to be sucked into the youtube rabbit [...]

i’ve been very busy since my last post. this is probably the first time i’ve been on my computer since the 23rd. christmas involved a lot of running around but it was great. i spent a lot of time with my family, a lot of time with J’s family. i got the shamrock bracelet that [...]

Imagine yourself five years from now. What advice would you give your current self for the year ahead? (Bonus: Write a note to yourself 10 years ago. What would you tell your younger self?) dear late-2010 alison, 2011 is going to be an awesome year for you. i should know since i’ve already lived it [...]

i don’t like reverb10′s prompt for december 20th so i’m skipping it. instead, you get this. this video is pretty awesome. it’s a montage of what the world searched for in 2010. i love the song too. it’s called “good life” by onerepublic. you can download it on itunes here.

December 16 – Friendship. How has a friend changed you or your perspective on the world this year? Was this change gradual, or a sudden burst? i’ve touched on this before but, one time i was out at a bar with some friends, talking about a recent “problem” in my life and one of them [...]

What social gathering rocked your socks off in 2010? Describe the people, music, food, drink, clothes, shenanigans. 2010 was a lot of fun. i went to quite a few parties and they were all pretty awesome so i’m not sure that i can narrow it down to one, or even just a few. there was: [...]

reverb10 | beautifully different

by Alison on December 8, 2010

in #reverb10

Think about what makes you different and what you do that lights people up. Reflect on all the things that make you different – you’ll find they’re what make you beautiful. i’m not a huge fan of talking myself up. writing a list of all the things that make me the amazing person that i [...]
