I just finished reading The Time Traveler's Wife. It was a very creatively written book. I haven't read anything like it. I was impressed that this was the author's first book. I am hoping there are many more wonderful books by her in the future. I was impressed that she was able to write such...

Help help help….I would love to start drinking tea and I need some suggestions. I want a tea to drink hot since I don't want to drink so much hot chocolate this fall. What tea would you recommend to a non-tea drinker? I would like something light and fruity. I have tried some Crystal Light...

I had to go to my orientation / registration for Fall semester at the U of M this morning. I felt like such a dork! Thankfully there were some people there closer to my age since everyone there was a transfer student from somewhere else. But after a bunch of blah blah talking, we were...
