Jurassic Park

I have a very clear memory of being in 6th grade and going to see Jurassic Park with my two best friends. (Neither of whom I really "speak" with anymore but we are "friends" on Facebook but one of those is just to be polite because I don't like her anymore. None of this is relevant to the story but I want the youths to know it's okay to grow apart.)

I loved Jurassic Park. I read the book. I even read a bunch of other Crichton novels for no reason. At 12, mind you, exactly the time you should be reading Michael Crichton.

My particular fave was Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern) who got to be a feminist, sort of, in an action movie. Something I hadn't seen before. I loved Ellie Sattler. I wasn't sure exactly what she did, except escape dinosaurs. But I wanted to be like her and look good in shorts like she did.

But as we are coming up on the release of Jurassic World: Dominion it occurs to me that I haven't seen any of the other Jurassic Park/World movies. Or maybe I have and they just made no impression.

But I think this is because Ellie Sattler was not in them. And she is in this new one.

So I feel like I should see it, but I have no idea what happens in the other movies. What do I need to know?

I’ll never forget the time in sixth grade when the teacher asked the class what something meant and I had the perfect answer, only for the teacher to go “no” right before explaining it by repeating what I just said

My best friend in the fifth grade: You should watch Naruto it’s so cool!

Me (about to permanently reorganize my brain chemistry): You know what, I think I will.

when i was in the sixth grade i had migrated back to my hometown of Toronto after living in Delhi for half a decade. i was new to the school and i had a really hard time fitting in - having moved from a very academically oriented private school to a very liberal, think creatively public school was a huge transition. However, at the end of the school year my sixth grade teacher, Ms. Kumar, she made us all write notes to everyone in the class. literally, attendance sheets in front of us and i wrote to everyone. i still have all the notes that were written to me. that one, Ms. Kumar wrote to me - it meant the world to me then and it means the world to me now.

i have since grown up to become a teacher myself and as a young educator, i now realize the power of the words. I never thought i was “bubbly” at that age — I didn’t look like my peers. my goals in life were to go to mall and get the clothes everyone else was wearing. i didn’t think i added much to anything really. i used to just do my tests and try to fit in. i tried so hard, it was so crummy. but, this story isn’t so sad — i figured it out and these are just stories of once upon a time.

But to Ms. Kumar, thank you so much for having so much faith in me. I now see it - I am bubbly! I hope I make my students feel the way you once made me feel. Welcomed.

In sixth grade I was obsessed with alien and unicorns.

I used alien and unicorn emojis everywhere. I made rainbow loom in unicorn themed colors. I had my locker decked out in alien and unicorn magnets. I wore unicorn shirts all the time with my galaxy print leggings. I had a poster of an alien beside my window. I made musical.ly videos about “being weird👽” and I even called myself a unicorn. I could go on forever.

This phase is unbelievably embarrassing. To everybody that knew me at the time, I formally apologize for being a nightmare.

Everyday I think about that one time in sixth grade me and my English class watched a twilight zone episode and it was that one with the nerd in the apocalypse or something (I’ve never seen another twilight zone episode in my life so that’s all you’re getting) and he got really excited at the library because like there was nothing else to do he could just read all day everyday and everybody turned to look at me because I was that one nerd who never did anything except read like it was my whole personality and then he stepped on his glasses and I wonder what that says about me

I promise I have more Mario stuff in the works, I just need to get the mouse in my brain to stop squealing about Nimona for five minutes.

#traditional art #nimona #ballister boldheart #ambrosius goldenloin #ballister x ambrosius #why'd they have to give Bal such adorable puppy eyes?? #GoldenHeart: golden retriever x black cat #Bal and Nimona bonk heads as a form of greeting change my mind #nevermind you can't #i haven't drawn a red cat since my cringe warrior cats phase in sixth grade lmao #i hc that Nimona and Ambrosius didn't really get along well until someone said something crappy to Bal and they both tried to throw hands #literally bonded over protecting their boy #Bal has no idea how to deal with his bf and feral child that's also older than him ready to fight at all times

Dillon Beach

The wind from the ocean blew up the dunes that sunny Sunday when I was twelve and my mother sat beside me under an egg-blue sky on morning-cold sand that lay under the stars the night before and now formed to our bodies if we wiggled back and forth to make little troughs for our legs and butts.  “In the Name of the Father,” the priest began, his voice muffled by the wind rushing up the dunes and…

Dear college students,

I really hope that I, your spinster aunt of Tumblr, am not the first person to tell you this, but: please use your university library services. You are paying for them. They are there for you. Moreover, your professors are operating on the assumption that you will use them as necessary.

When I say "library services" I mean not only physical books that will help you with research, but the usually more extensive eBook collections ditto. Novels you've been meaning to get around to and can't afford to buy. Even (quaintly?) DVDs for your entertainment. And perhaps most significantly of all, interlibrary loan.

I'm going to reiterate interlibrary loan in its own paragraph because a student complained to me recently that publishers were "literally incentivizing piracy" by not pricing academic monographs for purchase by college students and my reaction is best summed up as: ????? Publishers typically price scholarly monographs in the pious hope of not losing money on them. Everyone complains about the ones priced at $300, and a lot of them are priced around $30-50. They are priced for purchase by libraries and specialists. And they are priced for purchase by libraries precisely so that libraries can make them accessible to college students. Anyway, use interlibrary loan, good grief.

TL;DR: the library is there for you, that is what it is for, please behave accordingly.

#spinster aunt of tumblr #libraries #academic libraries #studyblr #college #also i took my survey class to the library this week and none of them had heard of boolean operators #did they all miss fourth grade #and sixth grade #and then never get asked to write a research paper ever #i am baffled #this particular student didn't want to pay more than $10 for a book but that's a different issue
