I want her to love me

I want her to comb my hair,

like she loves me

Even though it's rough, she take her time as though she combs through clouds.

I want her to love me

Communicate it to me, not at me, not through me but to me

I want her to see me for me, for the unique glass she carved into perfection.

I need her to understand me, to listen, not hear

I need her to laugh at my jokes because understands me

I need her to open her heart to me, love me like her ownself

I wanted her to wash my hair

I wanted her to care

I wanted her to love my my mind

I needed her to be kind

I needed her to nurture

I needed a perfect future.

Little Dreams, Big Impact: The Joy of Learning and Sharing It

Daily writing promptWhen you were five, what did you want to be when you grew up? View all responses I still clearly remember what I wanted to be when I was five. Back then, my dreams weren’t of spaceships or becoming a superhero (though those were pretty cool too!). For me, the most exciting prospect was … teaching, lecturing, or speaking in front of a massive stadium. Photo by Pixabay on…

here's something stupid: the catcatfish

some quick facts:

they're nocturnal and tend to roam around while awake.

they have keen senses of smell and hearing, but terrible eyesight. despite this, they also have a tapetum lucidum, making their pupils "glow" in the dark.

their fur is short, dense, and oily to waterproof them.

they prefer a diet of mostly meat and are attracted to strong-smelling food like fish, cheese, and anything fermented.

the elongated dewclaw on each front paw is sharp, flexible, and nonretractable. it injects a venom that causes respiratory failure and cardiac arrest in prey and, in extreme doses, humans. veterenarians typically remove the dewclaw venom glands during the neuter/spay procedure.

they grow to an average of 1m and 23kg (3ft and 50lb) but can reach up to double that length and triple the weight!

A Piece Of Mind

I think clearly when I smoke

I am at peace when I'm not around my folk

I am paper with scribbled notes

Floating on water like aimless boats

I'm aware

Yet I have fear

I'm alive

With no will to take the dive

I love to love, yet I require an extra shove

I breathe this air; light

Yet it's burden I bare

I open my eyes but I'm afraid to see

I perfectly flawed; afraid to be

I think; reluctant to put paper to ink.

For the first time this makes no sense

Maybe I'm not deep, but I know for sure I'm not dense.

The Muppets as Goncharov (1973)

the only goncharov remake I want is a muppets version

[Image description: Gifs of the muppets with edited captions.

1 - Kermit, wearing a suit, says, "Yes, I am Goncharov."

2 - Several ticking clocks on a wall

3 - Miss Piggy and Kermit kiss, while Miss Piggy says, "Of course, we're in love; that's why I tried to shoot you."]

"As pain floods my heart, overflowing and seeping through my skin, like sweat on a hot summer's eve; pain spills from the clouds of my mind, watering my sorrows, I know now not only the depths of these scars nor the weight of your words in breaking my spirit but also the power of your touch and its ability to break me with it."

I increasingly feel it deep deep in my bones that I am born to be a teacher and over time, I learn to embrace it and bask in the joy of it, more and more. From the cheekiness and goofiness of students, to their cute moments of choosing to endearingly call me 老师 even though I don't teach them anything vaguely related to Chinese or Mandarin at all. To these sweet excerpts they write about themselves, in their intro of self, to me, that lights up and warms my heart so so much. I'm a happy lucky girl <3
