a loving eye is all the charm needed: to such you are handsome enough

Hi there.

I'm Elizabeth and I
like to write.
I wish I knew
where I was going
Humm

There are certain truths that I live by
One. I am Eilzabethbutwhatsinaname
Two. I seek happinessbutwhatshappinesswithoutsadness
Three. I pursue self-actualizationbutwhatifidontlikewhatifind
Four. I happily owe everything to Jesus Christ, my saviour and my God. I live for You alone.

Toronto, the city

I like Toronto. I live here.
It's kind of small compared to other cities, I think. Not quite as developed. The subway coverage really sucks.
But I like Toronto. It's urban and vibrant and so diverse. I want to explore it all!

Reading is a passion of mine
something I've loved since I first learned how to sound out individual letters and pronounce them as words since I first realized a story out of a collection of words and found pleasure in it

In university, I've not dedicated a lot of time to reading.
I read every night still, but I read perhaps a few pages at a time?
I get into bed too late every night
that I'm ready for sleep even before I open the pages of my book
Perhaps it's because I've only been reading huge books. I'm reading Anna Karenina presently. Before that I'd finished the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

The thing with these huge books is that
characters, plot,
the story gets old. It sort of drags on,
especially when I can only manage a few pages at a time.

I'm craving something new
but I need to finish this! I want to read a lot.

When I'm older and out of school
when I'm a stay-at-home mom
I'll have time
to dedicate myself to my hobbies and interests.

I'm looking forward to it.

If I were to analyze my life as I would a book in school
I think I would identify one of the all encompassing themes to be happiness
or rather, the state of my happiness.

If I were to analyze my happiness as I would a character in a book
I think I would identify it as dynamic
because it is always changing.





i love friends!

I feel my mood is directly correlated to the states of my interpersonal relationships. If I've been hanging out with my friends a lot, I live on a high. If things aren't so great or if there's a lag of some sorts, I'm as down as a doggy (when it's down). And then I'm happy all at once again when I have good conversation or laughs with people I care about. Or people I'm just getting to know!

I'm so dependent haha.



school is next week yay

I love my holidays. This is a time when I'm not constrained. I can decide to do anything without having the thought of school dictating my decisions. There's no homework I need to finish later or readings I need to finish later.

It's great to be free
to do whatever it is I suddenly feel like doing.
to be led not by anything but my own wills and wants.

It is with a feeling of resignation that I look to whatever will come in a few days.
