Dear Burlesque,

Take two.  I know that I have already professed my love for you on this site, but it must be done again.  You are seriously going to become the best sleepover movie of all time.  I expect to be talking with twelve year olds some years from now and hear your name spoken reverently from their lips as they plan the best birthday sleepover ever. 

I watched you with Portuguese subtitles over the last twenty-four hours.  Totally worth it. 

And then listening to your soundtrack inspired an inevitable round of downloading music. 

I do a poor job of blogging on the weekends.  Time just goes wonky.  I spent more time socializing this weekend than I have in a long time.  It was a beautiful thing.  My weekend was made of many beautiful things. 

Not my last reading.  I haven't done that.  I need to update my iPod with the inevitable new round of music and then buckle down and do the final reading. 

Ah, Sundays.


love,
hannah

Dear Brandy Cinderella,

Why are you so amazing? Really.  You are wonderful.  (I could insert song lyrics but I'm choosing not to.)

So, sure you came up in a discussion about multiculturalism and color-blind casting, so what? It was worth it. 


love,
hannah

Dear Tuesdays,

We're not going to get along well together this semester.  It's gonna get ugly.  Be kind to me. 

At least I got french toast today.

Dear Instant Star,

Like any television endeavor, I have watched you completely.  For all your insane Canadian melodrama, you make me a little nostalgic.  Okay, you're bad.  Bad and over the top, but I just couldn't.  You're Instant Star!

Just to be clear, I was never a Jommy fan.  I was more of a Jamie/Jude fan.  That might just be because I liked Jamie.  What can I say? My teen years included pining after indie boys with shaggy hair.  I just couldn't help it. 

Now that I've gotten that over with, it's time to jump into the new semester full force.  Class at 8 tomorrow morning? NO. 


love,
hannah

Dear Cosmo's Moon,

The last few nights in Rome, I was struck by the moon over and over and over again.  I swear to god it was Cosmo's moon.  Gorgeous.  And then I saw it last night, in St Paul!

I woke up two hours ago and tried to go back to sleep for a while, gave up and started watching Instant Star.  Then I got really hungry.  But, I don't know anywhere to go for food in the Twin Cities at 5:30 in the morning.  I'm eating snack bars until normal places are open.  Also, I can't sleep right now. 

Next in line: shower, maybe some work for the amazing course/travel I just finished, a visit to the SPO, and hopefully I'll get tired again. 

January trip was amazing.  No regrets, one of the best decisions I've made.  Met some wonderful new Mac people and left me with lots to think about. 

However, I've been in town for hours and I still need to shower. 

Here goes semester number two. 


love,
hannah
