Dear March,

Since February was a short full of surprising intensity, it is my hope that March (though it can maintain a similar level of intensity) be less surprising.  I cannot take any surprises.  I am planning my life minute by minute these days.

Dear ustream,

I think you are the coolest thing happening on the internet right now.  I am sitting in my room, trying to plan my homework, and keeping an eye on what's happening in the Wisconsin capital at the same time.  And there are 7675 other people doing the same thing.  It's incredible.

User-generated content has advanced to the point where it can be sent out live across the internet.  It blows my mind that I am sitting here watching as they chant "The people united will never be defeated."  It's amazing.  And the police are supposed to evacuate the capital soon and I am going to be watching it. 


love,
hannah

Dear My Girlfriend's Boyfriend,

You are a horribly titled movie.  With a twist! I can't say that I saw either of those plot twists coming.  *SPOILER ALERT* The wealthy guy is the character being written by the real boyfriend.  It is not a tale of polyamory as I thought. 

However, the reason that this twist was rather weak is because the character boyfriend was boring and two-dimensional.  That's why I couldn't believe that she was deciding between the two.  And in the end it was all about fertility... Interesting. 

Not quite the four star review that Netflix predicted. 


love,
hannah

Dear Greek,

I am very sad that you are ending your run in just a few weeks.  You're crazy, and a little bit trashy, and I love you.  Just for the record, I've always been a Casey/Cappie fan,  never ever a fan of Evan Chambers. 

I've been watching you in marathon streaks recently. 

I never wanted a greek system in my real life, but I enjoy it in television. 


love,
hannah

Dear bell hooks,

You see, I should have finished your book review yesterday.  Perhaps two days ago.  But it's too late for that now.  I'm stuck.  Two pages, perhaps, to go and I'm running out of sophisticated ways to say simple things. 

I really enjoyed your book.  But why?

And what do some other lovely ladies have to say about it?

Snow day was wonderful, but this week should hurry up quick.


love,
hannah

Dear Rufus Humphrey,

You are the most pathetic character on television right now. 

Better than last week, but sill, no good.  You used to be so cool, and now... you're a puppet. 


love,

Dear snow day,

You're real? You're happening? What?

Truly, I never thought that I would have a snow day at school at Macalester.  A professor said that in his twenty-one years here, there has been one snow day before this point. 

This winter is simply the season of snow days in unbelievable places.  Evanston and Macalester. 

 Tomorrow is time to play in the snow! And work more on my paper...


love,
hannah
