Quotes (life)

Disclaimer: Some of you know, I'm not big on the whole quotes thing. This is actually an added bonus for those around me--you can quote something, I'll never realize you're quoting something, and you get points for line that is not even yours. I also know that quotes on ye olde blog is a slippery slope. I'll do my best not to stumble.

Blog: Today, I went to my second class of the week. The events of the class proved my theory that this semester will be an odd combination of touchy-feely and intense. I actually think it will be perfect for me. I'll feel like a real graduate student and I'll get to touch the inner hippie. [We did yoga in class and talked about action research and it's roots in anthropological methods...I liked it.]

The teacher put up some quotes about writing and asked us to reflect. The one I chose was by Gloria Steinem. She wrote, "Writing is the only thing that, when I do it, I don't feel I should be doing something else." I thought about the blog and how I've written since I was 28. Now, I'm weeks away from 30 (although I dispute this based on the fact that I've already had birthday observed). The blog has become a way I try to take care of myself. I'm happy it's here.
