Unwanted gifts.

Okay so before I get into today's TED talk... between yesterday and today I watched the TV series Harper's Island. Have you seen it? It aired on CBS in 2009. It's only 13 episodes long, only one season. Don't go thinking that it wasn't good because it only lasted one season; it was meant to only last one season. It was actually really good. I couldn't stop watching (and thus, I basically didn't). It's about a group of friends who go back to the island they grew up on, where a murderous rampage took place 7 years prior. Only problem, people are dying once again. It was super suspenseful and at times shocking. It was good, and seemed fitting since Halloween is approaching. So watch it if you haven't.

Day 12

Today's talk is rather short, but it's meaning is huge. It's a talk by Stacey Kramer about the best gift she ever survived. She talks about all the wonderful things this gift brought to her life. Only problem, it's not exactly a gift you'd ever want. It's very humbling, very moving. It's made me think about the wonderful things I have in my life, and how lucky I am to have them. I hope you feel the same after watching.




So that seems to be a random combination of topics today. I just couldn't not mention Harper's Island. It was that good. Anyway, Happy Hump Day!! Have a fantastic rest of the week. Okay bye.
