I remember whe...Oh, sweet nelly, this is so cute. <br /><br />I remember when my sister was this age and the Buddha jokes flew around our house. Toddlerhood is such a delightful stage. <br /><br />Don't listen to anyone who tells you to watch out for the Terrible Twos; my experience has been that children are easy to deal with then. It's when they hit around four or five that they really start grasping the concept of defiance and the whining sets in. <br /><br />Pie, nearly six, is going through this now. You just have to be firm when they get to that point.BrightenedBoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04140255969796496082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4510983690984910.post-91254755654074362922009-05-31T09:01:39.415-05:002009-05-31T09:01:39.415-05:00Thanks, guys!

But here in Malaysia, English books it’s too expensive (maybe because of shipping cost)which is make me needed to spend at least more than RM500 to buy 10 books per a month and it’s crazy because I do need to spend a lot for my clothes and other things . I just bought some of good books when I’m abroad for my vacation (always in England). As we know that our main language here is Bahasa Melayu, not English.So, there are a lot of Malays bOoks rather than English books English is my second language. Reading Malays Books makes me easily become bored, because their writing was not so phenomenal. <br /><br />you’re very lucky born as an American .nadhirahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06348875792907956712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4510983690984910.post-50075205759314147202009-04-25T11:20:00.000-05:002009-04-25T11:20:00.000-05:00Warren Wilson would have been a dream school for m...Warren Wilson would have been a dream school for me.......I so bonded with a few folks there!

I think I need a break! lol<br />ps- I'm glad you like the soap idea!

It's very multi-cultural, but if you are anglophone it's VERY hard to feel accepted. Just the political history. That being said I LOVED it (I am bilingual though... so my life was quite easier).<br />Didn't love McGill if that's where he's headed. The university looks great on paper... but is so full of itself. They do have year round farmer's markets... but it snows a lot during the winter (think awesome skiing. but you'd have that in Vancouver too).<br /><br />I have also lived in BC for two years (not vancouver- inland). Vancouver is much more laid back- lots of farmer's markets, VERY expensive to live and very liberal. If you like pacific ocean, access to Whistler mountain it's great. I personally was not a fan- but then after being exposed to Montreal's multiculturalism I found Vancouver more... flat. Canada is awesome though- we live in Halifax right now (I'm a maritimer at heart, so western thinking did not mesh). <br /><br />Good luck! My sweetie is also applying to grad school, we are crossing our fingers!!Eco Yoginihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10693080137196812405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4510983690984910.post-10751991170601477772009-04-13T19:51:00.000-05:002009-04-13T19:51:00.000-05:00I would love to hear about how "The Price of Mothe...I would love to hear about how "The Price of Motherhood" was! It's something that although I studied feminism, motherhood is often overlooked. :) I'm looking for something new to read :)<br /><br />I LOVED "Woman; An Intimate Geography" by Natalie Angier. It's a pro-woman perspective on biology and history... after being a psych student it was refreshing to read a different perspective- however "out there" :)<br /><br />Blessings!Eco Yoginihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10693080137196812405noreply@blogger.com
