Moving on and settling down…all at once
Well Now That That’s OverPosted by beth on March 9, 2010
Thirtieth birthday – Check. And now that I’ve gotten that out of the way, I can go back to being 29. Here’s what I’ve decided: There is nothing wrong with the number 30 or the age. I’m not upset that I’m 30. I don’t long for younger days or miss the glory of my youth. [...]
My 20s. All of them.Posted by beth on March 6, 2010
And just like that, my 20s are over. Man, what an awesome decade. I’m going to try to do a recap of all my 20s birthdays and hit the highlights of some of the incredible things I’ve had the opportunity to do in the last ten years. I’m old, though, so I might not remember [...]
Well That Was FastPosted by beth on February 16, 2010
First of all, I’d just like to add to the title – That’s what she said.
Ok, now that that’s out (that’s also what she said), I was just lamenting yesterday how I had no birthday plans, and now I’ve got THREE parties in the works!! That’s one for every decade! I love it. So what [...]
T-Minus 19 Days and CountingPosted by beth on February 15, 2010
So…my birthday is in less than three weeks. And it’s not just any birthday. It’s my THIRTIETH BIRTHDAY, and I don’t have any plans. That is either the biggest relief or the most depressing thought ever. On the up-side, I don’t have to bake a million cupcakes or clean my room or take a shower [...]
Dreamy ThoughtsPosted by beth on January 23, 2010
I’ve had some really weird dreams lately, which, you’ll know if you’ve been reading Onward Hoe! for a while, is not at all abnormal for me. I can’t remember what they’ve been exactly. I know a couple of nights ago, I was at some sort of performance camp for all ages. We were all learning [...]
Movies You Should See (if you haven’t already)Posted by beth on January 11, 2010
I missed a lot while I was gone: new TV shows, popular Halloween costumes, Adam Lambert being awful (well, I wouldn’t say I missed that, but that I was spared, thank goodness), and the death of John Hughes. I’m catching up slowly, though, and I hope that by my birthday (March 6, start shopping now), [...]
You Can Be A Winner!!Posted by beth on January 8, 2010
Get ready, kids, because I am here today to GIVE STUFF AWAY!! I don’t think I’ve ever really done this before, so I’m pretty excited about it, and if there are any companies out there that would like some free promotion, I’ll give your stuff away too. It makes me feel like a younger, thinner, [...]
“Exploring” New TopicsPosted by beth on January 6, 2010
I thought of something to write earlier. Something good, something deep, something vulnerable and reflective. But then I got distracted by the awesome playlist going on at Borders and an absolutely ridiculous conversation about how I should ask the cute guy next to me what song he’d choose to do a striptease to. I didn’t [...]
On Falling in Love, Making Decisions and Not Pleasing EveryonePosted by beth on January 2, 2010
When I left Raleigh on Tuesday, I was 95% sure I was going to move to Wilmington, and that my trip to Asheville would just be a fun time to see John and Anne and Community (aka Jen), meet some cool girls (Lisa and Kendra) and hang out in the mountains for a few days. [...]
Zurich – Washington, D.C.Posted by beth on December 13, 2009
I arrived in Zurich rather late and realized immediately that I’d forgotten that I don’t speak German. Not a bit. I don’t know how to say “train station” or “airport” or “hostel” or “help.” And yet there I was trying to figure out how to get from the airport to the main station so I [...]
