Throwback Thursday – Highlights from 1993

For today’s Throwback Thursday, we’ll take a little stroll back to 1993 by cracking open the pages of my padded, tropically-festooned journal. I was 12 when I transcribed the following: January 31, 1993 (talking about a youth weekend I had just been to) … on the way back from lunch we had a snowball fight and were […]

Sunday Funday Post: Zentangle

Two things I have been getting right lately are that I’ve been meditating each morning and I’ve started Zentangling. Whatsy-tangling, you ask? Zentangling. I first heard about it sometime last year, when my friend Kristina posted some of her drawings online and mentioned that she had been doing it to relieve stress. I was immediately jealous that […]

Throwback Thursday: In My Heart Deeply Berred…

This throwback is true heart-warmer for me. There is no date on the paper so I don’t know exactly when it is from, or even why it was written in the first place. I have had it for a long time, tucked away in a box entitled “A Few of my Favorite Things”. I vaguely remember […]

Happy 2015 from EEC Chick!

Happy New Year! I’ve been away from WordPress for a couple of weeks now due to all the holiday fun that was going on, but now it’s a quiet, work-free afternoon and so I cannot delay posting any longer. My holidays were quite lovely and I hope yours were too. I always enjoy spending time […]

Throwback Thursday – Autobiography Part 3

Here is the third and final section of my autobiography (written at 16). See part 1 for the project scope. Adolescence I started middle school in September 1991, scared out of my mind.

I hope it gives you a chuckle. Tuesday, December 18, 2012 Well, today confirmed what I’d always suspected was true: […]

Throwback Thursday – Autobiography Part 2

Last week I began typing up the autobiography I wrote for my 11th grade developmental psychology class. If you’d like to start at the beginning, check that post out first. This is part 2 of 3. Childhood In first grade I had an awesome teacher named Mrs. Bush. She was the best teacher I’ve ever had. As […]

Throwback Thursday – Autobiography of a 16 Year Old Me

In my junior year of high school I took a developmental psychology class and loved it. One of the projects in the class was to compose an autobiography and pay attention to the stages of development throughout our lives. So here is what I wrote, with a few edits for brevity and privacy. Even with […]

Throwback Thursday – Thanksgiving 1991

Happy Thanksgiving!! I hope all of you reading this are having a lovely day with the people you care about most. Here’s a little flashback to 1991, when we lived in PA and always had a bunch of people over for Thanksgiving dinners. But I didn’t really describe much of that here. What was I […]
