“I'd like to talk today about something that had just crossed my mind: Bags. all sorts of bags; sports bags, luggage bags, bag packs, business bags, messenger bags, etc. As far back as my local history book describes, bags were either bits of cloth and leather sewn up, or animal bladders slit open, or something. I just had a fleeting image of a caveman carrying an open pig's bladders with his sneakers stuffed inside.

But then again, if we can imagine cavemen stuffing their sneakers into pig bladders, we have to imagine a whole set of other sports designed by cavemen, for cavemen. How about a gym? Big Alpha Male warrior needs workout, grunt, grunt. Or Football? We can kick that same pig bladder around, no problem w aho kollo multitasking. And this, ladies and gentlemen, is how the Flintstones show must have been conceived.”

"Dear Mirette,
I wanted to tell you some stuff about me that you don't know, for no other reason than I had no idea what to blog about.
This is hard. You know a lot about me.
I went to French pre-school and KG 1 in Sacre Coeur. Have I told you this bit before? I know it's pretty weird for someone to change schools from French to English, but I'm glad I did. Everyone said that people in French schools are also good at English but people in English schools are only good at English, which is true most of the time, but I like the school I'm in. My second grade English teacher is the one that got me to love writing. My principal is a sweetheart and I cannot imagine what I would have been like without her influence in my life. Plus Teen Stuff's in English.
Come to think of it, I told you this piece of information before, haven't I?
Hmm... let's see, what else don't you know about me?
When I was younger I was chubby. Hard to believe, I know, but I had a round face and it made me look not thin. I can show you pictures if you don't believe me, but you'll have to hold on a second because they're all saved on my cousin's laptop. My parents aren't that much of active photo-takers (except for the tons of videos they have of me and my brother as babies), but my aunt and uncle are.
Happy feast, and stop thinking your craziness is something bad. You ARE crazy, but that's a good thing. Would you rather be boring?
I love you,
Laura."
