Because Reasons...

Hi people,  Today I will start my post with a quote.  I think that I am partly anti-social but that is amplified by my narcissism. For example: Someone says: Do you want to hear about my weekend? I think: I'm in the middle of writing a poem. It's more interesting than anything you  could say (unless it is about pigeons that can read). Go AWAY! What I say: Sure......*smiles and nods until conversation is over* That was my response to people who talk about nothing other than events. (If you couldn't already tell I hate small talk.) Have a great day!                        -Dianna

Galena, Illinois: a small town surrounded by summer homes and farmland with a street brimming with small shops at its center. This is my home away from home and the place I choose to escape the troubles of everyday life in. I have been annually vacationing in Galena for at least the past six years. Over all of these years I don't think that I've met many people who have been to the town and loved it as much as I have. Most of the time people just look at me like I am a lunatic because they don't understand why on Earth someone would want to go to a small town in the middle of nowhere for fun. It's fun because I actually have everything I need: a yarn shop for knitting, an art store for drawing, a hiking trail for deep thought, and some restaurants that serve my favorite comfort foods. Why wouldn't I love it there?                                                  - Dianna

Hi people, This is going to be a marginally short post. I just want to make sure that no one thinks that I have disappeared off the face of the Earth. I have so very many things to say and almost no time to say them. Because homework. Here are some posts that will probably go up by the end of this week. Galena (a vacation post) Knitting! I'm Not Anti-social... Have a great day and remember, "DIANNA IS NOT DEAD!".

Hi people! This post will basically be my criticism of various internet quotes. First up! Fear does have two meanings. I choose the first one. I only travel to escape life. Seriously, don't we all need an escape at least  sometimes? In my mind, there is nothing better than a relaxing vacation. (This clearly does not count climbing Mount Everest, cliff diving, staying in shady motels, or taking a long hike through uncharted wilderness with animals that would like to eat me.) This is absolutely terrifying. About half of today is already gone... FOREVER . The worst part is that we so completely powerless and unable to stop any of it. Whoever wrote this must not have realized how hard this is to actually do. Who can  actually  balance this in their real life? WHY! The last one was my favorite chapter! Next are quotes that I actually agree with. This is so true. Revenge is only a painful waste of time and effort. Sleep is the enemy of goo
