1. I’m almost done with my sci-fi lit class and as much as I’ve enjoyed it, I’m kind of relieved. I’m ready to read books for fun again, not because they’re on a syllabus.
2. I knew I would enjoy my modern business class when the professors started referencing Dilbert and The Big Bang Theory!
3. Helllllloooo, spring time! We actually turned the heat off and opened the windows two days in a row. (Just a crack, and I’m wearing my fuzzy bathrobe, but still–the house stayed at 66 degrees.) It feels great to get that fresh air inside.
4. I can no longer claim to be “not a TV person”–I’m hooked on Boardwalk Empire. And yeah, I’m about three seasons behind, but it’s still awesome.
5. Are you going to see Divergent? I loved the first book and hated the second and third ones. I do like Shailene Woodley but overall I’m still feeling kind of “meh” about the whole franchise. And no one, repeat, NO ONE can replace Katniss!
6. I need this pin! (From Etsy seller beanforest)
7. So true.
8. Speaking of books–take this Buzzfeed quiz to find out what type of book you are! I’m a secondhand book, apparently.
9. By the way, those Buzzfeed quizzes are evil. Talk about a time suck!
10. If I buy one new pair of shoes for spring, it will probably be these. You can’t go wrong with Chucks.

1. As much as I like to read, I HATED reading in school, just because they told me I had to!
3. YES! I’m LOVING opening the windows in the afternoon.
5. I’m halfway through Divergent and I love it so far and I’ll probably see the movie when I’m finished. But yes, Katniss is bomb.

A sci-fi lit class sounds like so much fun! I am just wrapping up my Web Science class which was amazing! 9Gonna have to take that quiz now1)
Martha Woods
It’s been pretty awesome! It’s great to dig deeper into the meanings behind these books.
Amy Yelton
I got second hand book too! I would love to go see Divergent :)
Martha Woods
It looks like it will be pretty good!

I liked Divergent and Allegiant, but not Insurgent. The trailer looks good but I will be going with low expectations because we all know movies are never as good as the books!
Martha Woods
Insurgent was such a draggy middle chapter :P And yeah, I’ll keep my expectations low!!

is it spring there? well, it’s not here in ny, it’s bitterly cold today. but there’s still hope.
and & totally agree with you on the sneakers. I used to hate wearing sneakers and now I own too many pairs.
have a great day.
Martha Woods
It’s getting there, slowly but surely! Today was nice and sunny. Hopefully it stays that way! I hope spring will come soon for you in NY!

I want to see Divergent, but I want to read the books first. The fact that Kate Winslet’s in Divergent means I’ve got to see it eventually lol. :) #6 is so true! :D

The books, I’m sure, will turn out to be much better! They always are! I’m excited to see her as Jeanine, she ought to be great!

The weather is absolutely gorgeous here today. Definitely feels like spring. I’m still debating if I want to go see Divergent. None of my kids wants to go with me see a movie, lol.
Martha Woods
I might wait until it’s in the discount theater. I just can’t see it being as good as the book!
