little nibbles -- this time, with an explanation!

I had to explain myself today, explain why these particular images are so exciting for me. You see, on Saturday, I finish the standardized testing portion of my graduate school applications and that, for me, means one thing: I can go back to reading for fun. All summer I read books I needed to read in order to score better on the GREs, be more prepared for grad school, and avoid humiliation at English Professor cocktail parties in the future. But after this weekend? It's time for books for fun again! And that is something truly special for me...

little nibbles week

My dears, I must let you know: this is a dark week for me. On Saturday, I take the GRE Literature in English Subject Test, a brutal excuse for graduate programs to weed out those who can't withstand three hours of mental flogging. So after the fun of my weekend ebbed away, I was flooded with studying and will remain so for the rest of the week. And next week, as I prepare for the GRE general test. And then the next month, as I finish my graduate school applications...


Therefore, I'll take this week (at least) to share the images that are inspiring me, lifting my spirits, and keeping me going through this irritating, stressful endeavor.
