This is how best friends talk...and how I choose...

Day #5: Favorite Quote(s)
The words of inspiration I try to live by:
Nobody can make you feel inferior without your consent. —Eleanor Roosevelt
Voici mon secret. Il est tres simple: On ne voit bien qu’avec le coeur. L’essentiel est invisible pour les yeux. (Here is my secret. It’s very simple: We cannot see well except with the heart. What is essential is invisible to our eyes.)...
Day #4: Favorite Book
Much like everything else, I really can’t pick a true favorite here. Reading has always been a large part of my life, so I do have a rather lengthy list of favorites. Some of my top choices are:
Le Petit Prince, by Antoine Saint-Exupery: A timeless classic that is written for kids but has so many powerful messages for adults. It reminds us that we’re always a kid at heart, and...
Day #3: Favorite Television Show
I don’t think I can pick just one absolute favorite television show, but here’s a sampling of my favorites, past and present:
Late Night with Conan O’Brien: Ever since high school, watching his show was a night-time ritual for me. I would wait up to see Conan O’Brien. I love his quirky humor and sense of good comedy. I’m really keeping my fingers crossed that...
Day #2: Favorite Movie
My Cousin Vinny: All time favorite movie. It’s funny and sassy in an intelligent way. It doesn’t matter how many times I watch this movie, I always laugh.
Some other favorites of mine include:
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. I have a soft spot for independent films, I guess because of their originality.
The Nightmare Before Christmas: …or pretty much anything...

Carpe diem.
Live life to the fullest. Seize the day. Take no prisoners. Cherish everything, even the small moments. Life is something that can pass you by and go away the next year, month, week or minute from now.
Never forget that. ♥
Conan O'Brien to Co-Sign with Fox...? →
I hope it’s true! It would probably be one of the only times I watch that network, but I’d love to have Conan back.
Happy St. Patrick's Day

Subconscious. →
I’ve always been one to believe that we have the power and ability to control our actions. While this article does not refute that we have the ultimate power to decide our own actions and mentalities, it also goes to show that there is a significant amount of stuff that we cannot control in our daily lives. What happens when we have unrealized outside influences to our subconscious? Can...
I’m not religious, but tonight is the first night I’ve prayed in a long time. If there is anyone out there, I pray you will answer.
