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.

Imagine you will completely lose your memory of 2010 in five minutes. Set an alarm for five minutes and capture the things you most want to remember about 2010. if i completely lose my memory in 5 minutes, what good would capturing things that i want to remember about 2010 do? is this like a [...]
since my last post, i’ve been a handful of places; my company christmas party (i won a gps!!), curled up under multiple blankets trying to stay warm because it’s been snowing non-stop since at least thursday and the temperature hasn’t really gone above 20, and working. i’ve had a sore throat for the last week, [...]
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: [...]
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 [...]
