Describing Yourself in 5 Words

August 13, 2012 in Dating, Family, Marriage, People, Relationships, Self

Recently, I changed my Twitter bio. I’m quite proud of it and think I’m really funny and self deprecating. It got me thinking about adjectives, and words we would use to describe ourselves, if we were given only 5.

Video: We Need To Talk About Injustice

March 20, 2012 in Human Rights, Society

The other day I came home and my husband was watching this video. It took only a few seconds for me to be completely sucked in to this man and what he had to say. It’s over 23 minutes long, but it’s worth your time. Have a look. Bryan Stevenson: We need to talk about injustice T.
