El's Bells: soon
http://auraellie.blogspot.com/2010/05/soon.html
Monday, May 10, 2010. I leave on Wednesday morning at 7:30am. Today is Monday. It's coming, I'm feeling nervous and excited. I want to leave, so I can return. That makes sense, right? The sooner I leave, the sooner I can come back. The sooner I can embrace biff and my Pirate. The sooner I can re-fall in love with my city. My visa came. The Royal Thai Embassy went to work and processed it in a day. One day! It's only 12 weeks. That's what I'm saying to myself. It's only 12 weeks. 12 weeks....I'll keep you...

El's Bells: okay
http://auraellie.blogspot.com/2010/05/okay.html
Thursday, May 6, 2010. As an aside, has anyone noticed this weird trend about people not fastening their flies? I've been seeing it at an increasing and frankly alarming rate recently. Are all these people unaware that their pants are unbuttoned or unzipped? Or is it intentional? That's a little off topic, but I've been wondering about it for a while. I keep seeing it more and more. Let me go home. I'm just too far from where you are, I wanna come home. Maybe surrounded by a mill. I miss you I miss you I...

El's Bells: on love, Love, and friends
http://auraellie.blogspot.com/2010/04/on-love-love-and-friends.html
Friday, April 30, 2010. On love, Love, and friends. This is the thing about things. I don’t have an answer, and it doesn’t seem like anybody else does either. Today, I’m happy because I’m ridiculously in love. And my friends care. They’re there; I hope they’ll remain there. I hope everyone stays. Each other, not. Each other. So my person, my other, my mate, seems like this being beyond all other beings; even the things that might have bothered me before have a taint of cuteness. I feel like he...You f...

El's Bells: the thing (or "it")
http://auraellie.blogspot.com/2010/04/thing-or-it.html
Thursday, April 22, 2010. The thing (or "it"). Please, no more Space. I suppose today is a day that I feel it all. Hmmm okay. I'm dealing with how to deal with other people's stuff. How much it can infiltrate and overwhelm you. How to balance others' expectations with your own needs and desires. Perhaps it is a product of your feelings for the person; or maybe it has more to do with you, your nature and the way you interact with others. A tribute to being strong. The thing is, my friend is not a war crim...

There is Still Hope for America . . . and Law Students →. January 25, 2011 · 12:20 am. OK, OK, Maybe It’s Not That Bad. So, I watched the first episode of Fairly Legal. The new show on the USA Network about Kate Reed (played by Sarah Shahi), a young, attractive lawyer-turned-mediator who works at her late father’s fancy shmancy law firm. I previously lambasted. The show for sexually objectifying the character of Kate in its previews and advertisements (“So, what does justice look like? John C. Reilly.

Newer posts →. May 6, 2010 · 7:22 am. Seriously, What is it With Skinny Jeans? I’ve been feeling overwhelmed lately by the news. There is almost too much going on right now. You’ve got Arizona making a bunch of crazy. The Times Square scare. The Gulf oil spill crisis. And (while it isn’t all over television news, it has been making quite a splash in the legal community) the racist email. Written by a Harvard law student. Is that all? I feel like I’m missing something. Really, they have! On how she dealt ...

El's Bells: trembling; on the verge
http://auraellie.blogspot.com/2010/05/trembling-on-verge.html
Sunday, May 16, 2010. Trembling; on the verge. I thought I was braver than this. I considered myself more of a pioneer. I assumed I. Was the trailblazer, not the follower, not the scared one who hides behind in need of a shield from the foreign, the new, or the just plain unknown. The things I don't understand. But I don't feel brave. I feel small and scared. I feel defeated already, and I haven't even really yet begun. Yes, that's exactly it: I feel d. Why do I do this? I want to learn to be an advocate.

Actually, Justice Looks More Like This Show Getting Cancelled | girl meets law

Bell hooks, race and representation, essentialism and “authenticity”. 2010 in Review →. December 15, 2010 · 10:53 pm. Actually, Justice Looks More Like This Show Getting Cancelled. USA is wheeling out a new “legal drama” called, “Fairly Legal,”. About a woman who was a lawyer at her father’s firm, but quits after her father dies, and begins working as a mediator. The preview begins with a narrator with a male voice saying, “So, what does justice look like? House is a white, male doctor who is somewhat of...

El's Bells: snap a trap
http://auraellie.blogspot.com/2010/04/snap-trap.html
Friday, April 23, 2010. You're right; you're all right. I have to snap out of it. It's not that big of a deal. It's going to be okay. The things that don't end up okay were going to fall apart anyway; they just disintegrated faster than if I hadn't gone away. A feeling of its own, with roots and personality and girth. It certainly felt. It's not even that long, in the grand scheme of things. How much changes in three months, she asks. Indubitably. How much indeed? Which is spectacular for me (and my pare...

El's Bells: leaving
http://auraellie.blogspot.com/2010/05/leaving.html
Friday, May 14, 2010. I don't know, the shit is hard to handle though. Like a bird you're trying to cage, something like that. It would rather just have the window open, ready to escape when necessary, but all you want to do is lock it up and shut it in. Make it safe. Keep it real. I'll keep you posted. I can't believe I'm leaving! The day is finally here. It makes me hyperventilate a little, but I'm happy to be going. Too much anticipation is killer. I need to just do it. Trembling; on the verge.
