Letters and Cards From College
So as I'm cleaning out my room , tonight was go thru the drawers of cards, letters, etc. Of course I am not getting rid of really any of them but separating between leaving at my parents and taking with me.

It is really great to read back through cards and letters from my friends especially from when we were in college or when teres and jill moved away. It really takes you back and something about reading it in a letter instead of an e-mail is great. Like I feel like since you had to write it out by hand you made it better and only more important stuff or something where emails are more every detail of stuff that is going on . Well I loved it and it brought back some memories

BUT...I wish everyone dated things. I realize I never do but I am going to start. I never date cards or letters or notes but I am so grateful for the people who did because some I relaly can't place when they are from. So I have learned my lesson and will date everything I send in the future.

When a man loves a woman
SO me and (e:libertad) did our first ever slow dance tonight at Mk's wedding. It was to When A Man Loves A Woman which is kinda weird. So is that our song now ? That's weird
tinypliny - 07/17/11 19:10
Well... I just heard the song that (e:heidi) linked and I have to say, its the totally maudlin spirit that matters. The really interesting question is, however, what do YOU think is your's and (e:libertad)'s song?
mike - 07/17/11 18:58
its a little weird that us 2 men's song may be When A Man Loves a Woman
tinypliny - 07/17/11 14:36
Oh, that song. Nevermind. Yeah, that is slow... but not weird at all. Very cute. :-)
heidi - 07/17/11 14:02
:::link::: The original Percy Sledge version, but the Michael Bolton version is more likely the one they were dancing to. :::link::: (e:Mike) & (e:Libertad) - you are so cute :-)

Old Song.... Was it in one of those dance movies from some time back?
tinypliny - 07/17/11 01:46
What song is this? Link please. I thought that was a fast punk-rocky hip hop song.

packing
moving isn't easy when your a hoarder

Dad must be freaking out.
heidi - 07/14/11 00:42
It sucks no matter what. You can do it! It just takes perseverance.

tinypliny - 07/14/11 00:29
Just so you know, it isn't easy when you are not a hoarder either. At one point they even considered making it grammatically wrong to use "moving" and "easy" in a sentence together.

I kept lists
I used to keep notebooks and notebooks of such random stuff like I thought I should record it for the world to remember. things like the videos on mtv or a list of the current football teams.or a integrating story .. its kinda neat but unfortunately I didn't date any of it and mixed multiple years in one journal

One time in Germany (e:terry) and I made a list of every TV show we ever saw.
tinypliny - 07/10/11 22:18
So that waterfalls video is completely not what I thought it was: :::link:::

It gets worse. I don't remember that song either. Oh well.
tinypliny - 07/10/11 21:59
There is actually software for building lists of movies: :::link:::

How odd (or not..)
tinypliny - 07/10/11 21:52
I can't remember the song Waterfalls... But it had a cool video (or not?) Damn. Now I need to hunt it down on youtube.
tinypliny - 07/10/11 21:51
You will find this totally up your hoarding-but-now-unhoarding alley: :::link:::

In fact, that might not be a bad idea for me. I forget what I have seen all the time and the plots gets messed up in my head and sooner or later, I remember movies all wrong and actors names are mixed up and after a while, it comes to a point where movies I might (or might not) have see end up again on my to-see list.

Yeah, that makes no sense. I totally need that site to help me.

You had good handwriting. Do you still write in perfect cursive? HEhehehe @ the MTV video list. I saw ALL those videos when I was in middle school.

stuff from Paul
I also can't seem to part with anything (e:paul) gave me. especially from when he was away at school .I think even though we didn't get along as well then I really missed him . I actually have some letters he wrote me here somewhere

libertad - 07/11/11 10:41
We are going to have problems!
tinypliny - 07/10/11 21:54
You didn't get along with (e:Paul)? Why?! Spill!!! SPILL!!!!
tinypliny - 07/10/11 21:54
What on earth is that? A hip-hop-wannabe-kit? Or was the package of the inflatable microphone?
