Dear Maybelle,
Enjoy your vacation in the Philippines, roomie! I think it was quite unnecessary to tell me that I can bring home a guy while you are away. I mean, where would I find one??
Thank you for your Christmas gifts for us, which you so thoughtfully left on our kitchen counter because we have no Christmas tree under which to place it. But don’t worry, I fixed that this week when I brought home one. Look!!
Dear Scrooges,
I get that not everyone is a Christmassy person. But please don’t “bah humbug” those of us who are. Okay?? Or to put it in the modern times, don’t pull a Grumpy Cat on me because that’s totes not cool.
Speaking of cats and Christmas, I laughed way too long at this tweet:
May your holidays be bright, and may your tree have a cat in it. http://t.co/0km2yOYcLI pic.twitter.com/HACULvd4sD

Check out these cool articles!
- 19 Everyday Struggles of Being a Right-Brained Person. Thanks for this, Buzzfeed. I can sooo relate!
- A Very Single Holiday. Ashten hits it on the red nose with this one on how to overcome being bitter about being single during the big three holidays (Christmas, New Year and Valentine’s) with the help of Ryan Gosling GIFS. You’re welcome.
- 30 Pictures from Sherlock You’ve Waited Nearly 2 Years to See. Has it really been just two years? Sometimes it feels like I’ve waited forever for season 3!
- To the Women Who Choose not to have Kids. I have a friend in this category, and I’ve always hated the reactions of people about her choice. I accepted it right off the bat because I can understand her decision. I’m not a huge kid person myself, though I’m not yet firmly in the no-kids camp and might still want one someday, if I get married. One thing I’m sure of, though, is I will never consider being a single mom. I’m saying this because almost all of my single friends have mentioned wanting to have a kid even if they don’t find a husband. I will never ever ever go that route.
- 18 Most Over-the-Top Marriage Proposals of 2013. I posted about #3 before. It’s still my fave in this list!
- Why Most Women will never become CEO. I am not a feminist, but unfortunately, this rings true. Thanks to Kate for sharing this on her Labels Against Women post, also a good read!
- Cyberbullying – What Would Happen if we Stopped Ignoring It? Codi writes a powerful blog post about what she thinks of bloggers who like to put other bloggers down.
That is a ridiculously cute tiny tree. I like that article to the women who choose not to have kids. What's wrong with respecting people's choices? And the Buzzfeed bit is spot on.
I built a brick house in the no-kids camp, and my family is slowly coming to terms with it. I agree with Marielle – that tree is adorable.
Yes indeed! As long as they're not hurting anyone with their choices, people should let them be.
thank you so much for including my article! I've been feeling so much love from fellow bloggers helping to spread the word! thanks dear!
Good for you! I know it sucks to have unsupportive friends and family.
You're welcome! It really resonated and I had to share!
