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. [...]
Thoughts on LentPosted by beth on February 17, 2010
You know, Lent means a lot of things to a lot of people, but today, for me, it means that my roommate and her boyfriend gave up sweets before finishing off a bag of Double Stuf Oreos, leaving the rest for me!!
Also, I’m beginning to think that giving up Facebook is too easy, and that [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
Character ArcPosted by beth on December 9, 2009
It’s rare that you actually get an opportunity handed to you so simply in life to take a look at who you are and how you’ve changed. Under normal circumstances, you have to make a lot more of an effort to take time out and think about such things, and most of the time, it [...]
Junk Food Is the New AtkinsPosted by beth on December 8, 2009
As I’ve told you before, I’ve been failing miserably in my attempt to gain fifteen pounds in Italy. In fact, I believe I’m actually down seven or eight now, which works for skinny jeans, so I guess I’ll get over it. Some of you have asked, however, how I have accomplished this. Well, I’ll tell [...]
Weekend UpdatePosted by beth on September 21, 2009
Buon giorno!!!!!
Ok, first of all, I gave up on the rest of the Beth trivia because there wasn’t much participation, and my internet availability has been limited. Oh well. And now a few words on adaptation.
So far, the biggest difference for me between my life in America and my life in Italy is that I [...]
Greetings from the future!Posted by beth on September 16, 2009
I’ma tell y’all what. This time traveling thing is cool and all, but it’s weirding me out. I’m looking at the clock, and it says 3:06 a.m., and I’m looking outside, where it is clearly mid-morning, and my body is all WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?!?! And my brain is like Dude, your guess is [...]
Step By StepPosted by beth on September 14, 2009
Well, the hard part of leaving is over. I had my going away party on Saturday night, and it was LOTS of fun. For me at least. I hope it was fun for everyone else as well. At the very least, there was a lot of delicious food, and we played “Beth Trivia,” which involved [...]
I’M NOT DEAD!!!Posted by beth on August 25, 2009
First of all, speaking of not being dead, today is the anniversary of my friend SkoHoe’s birth. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HOE!!! Ok, I think I’ve now wished her a happy birthday on gchat, facebook, blog and two twitter accounts. She’s covered.
Now, wha’ ha’ happened was that I was either completely busy or completely brain dead for [...]
