Dear Optimists, The other night I found one of those silly questionnares that one always write, but noone ever reads. Except the fact that I did read it. And now you have to, too. And only because I ...
Dear Optimists, This is what’s going on with me these days: I’m too tired to function (apparently SO tired that I accidently wrote ‘fuck’). Which is also why I’m using a...
Dear Optimists, I don’t love Kindle, Nook or anything else. For me, an English major, my love of the novel, the feel of the paper and turning of the page itself are all romantic in some way. Su...

Dear Optimists, We all spend some of our time wishing, right? Some wish they could fly, some wish they would meet their special someone, everyone has a wish. I’ve been trying to think of someth...
Dear Optimists, There’s something about a random day off that’s just so nice. That’s me today! I slept in a bit, made a nice breakfast and some tea, and now I’m just relaxing ...

Dear Optimists, Have you ever considered what your life would be if you weren’t able to speak at all? Have you noticed how dependent we are of our ability to talk? I lost my voice last Sunday (...
