1. Those painfully painful MiniPops commercials. No tween needs to be singing anything on tv. EVER. 2. Winter. Cold things. Ice. Also, falling on my arse because of said ice, I could do without. 3. Homework. Ahem. If I wanted to go back to school, I WOULD. 4. Kim Kardashian. 72 days is NOT a [...]

by MARIA on January 12, 2012

It teaches and promotes life-long patience. (Exactly how many times in one’s lifetime can we really say, “Flush the toilet!” I’ll let you know!) It gives me glimpses into what I looked like as a young child. (Yes, sadly there really aren’t that many pictures of me as a young girl, but then who really [...]

by MARIA on August 19, 2011
