In honor of one of my favorite* villain’s birthdays, I thought I’d share my top three villain archetypes with everyone. I love my villains in a variety of flavors, so it was difficult to narrow it down to just three, but I think I’ve found something of a compromise. Please note that there will be …

Book One: Water || Chapter Twelve: The Storm
Welcome to the twelfth installment of my Avatar: The Last Airbender rewatch! Today’s post will be covering “The Storm.” Episode 1.12 is almost entirely flashbacks, allows me to go on multiple tangents, and makes it very clear who the villain is and isn’t. Please note that while the summary will remain spoiler free (aside for …
Book One: Water || Chapter Eleven: The Great Divide
Welcome to the eleventh installment of my Avatar: The Last Airbender rewatch! Today’s post will be covering “The Great Divide.” Episode 1.11 makes me want to headdesk myself into oblivion, but I am sadly lacking a desk. Perhaps the table with suffice. Please note that while the summary will remain spoiler free (aside for everything …
2012 Reading List
Here’s hoping I can top my 2011 record of seventeen books. I’m shooting for twenty-four books this year. New Fiction Tankborn by Karen Sandler The Girl of Fire and Thorns by Rae Carson Crossed by Ally Condie Mastiff by Tamora Pierce The Fault in Our Stars by John Green Possession by Elana Johnson Partials by …
Stressed and Making Use of It
Today I realized that I come up with the best ideas when I’m under a ton of stress. This is extremely unfortunate since I really only get stressed out when I’m low on free time and don’t feel like I can indulge these new ideas. Between LTUE recovery and deadlines at work, I’m at the …
LTUE 2012 Extracurricular Activities
Now that it’s been almost a week since the Life, the Universe, and Everything symposium, I’ve had time to recover and actually process the experience. I’ve already posted my raw notes, but I wanted to talk about all the stuff that didn’t happen on the panels.

Welcome to the tenth installment of my Avatar: The Last Airbender rewatch! Today’s post will be covering “Jet.” Episode 1.10 includes mass murder attempts, undermining Sokka, and bad boys who are bad news. Please note that while the summary will remain spoiler free (aside for everything up to and including the current episode, of course), …
LTUE Notes: Saturday Edition
I had an absolute blast at LTUE this year, and I’m so glad I went. When it’s no longer two in the morning I will be doing a post that is bigger-picture oriented. In the meantime, enjoy my raw notes!
The Universe is Wrong
I’ve been at the Life, the Universe, and Everything symposium for the last two days, and it has been an exhausting and awesome experience. Yesterday when I was thinking about what to write about for today’s post, I thought I would talk about LTUE (as an attendee instead of staff) or the weird and cool …
LTUE Notes: Friday Edition
Another day of LTUE is over, and I’m feeling just as tired and just as educated as I did yesterday. Come Sunday I will probably put up a more coherent essay on my experiences at large, but it’s way too late now and I still need to do my normal Friday post. Today was a …
