i did a post in january about how i showed this DMB hug video to my classes, and i forgot one of my students showed me this other cool "free hugs campaign" video later. it's awesome! (see below). i'm not head-over-heels for the song, but it's still an awesome little youtube video to make you happy.
so, since it's looking like i might not have a job in the fall and i'm back to not knowing what i'm doing with my life (but i'm strangely not worried about this. i probably should be), i'm already thinking i might sell everything i own and travel the world giving out free hugs. of course, i haven't worked out the logistics of food (and uh, the "travel" part) per se, but maybe there's a grant for this somewhere ...
enjoy! who doesn't need more hugs?

About Me
- sylvia
- i started this blog when i was depressed about turning 30. then i turned 30 and guess what? it was totally fine. not depressing at all. (look at me! i'm as shocked as anyone). i'm not blogging anymore ... but maybe someday i'll be back.
new blogger disclaimer:
i started this whole blogging thing in october 2007 basically to feed my ego and make my personal musings very public. [well, and i was getting so lazy with email, you know? that, and a little bored online to be honest. i can only read the gossip at the superficial and the news at cnn so many times a day. oh, i have other bookmarks ... and some minor compulsions.]
there is absolutely no reason for me to have a blog. my life is pretty dull. lately i'm very despondent about turning 30 and having accomplished ... erm, nothing. i suppose i will use this space to try and be funny and grateful and more loving. i have a lot to be thankful for in my life, i know this in theory. i also have a very specific list of shit i meant to have done by now. so, it's a constant battle to remember what's most important.
someday i will explain "carpe lucis," promise. i have a lot to get to first.
