The abroad blues

·

I know I am not the only person losing a friend to the allure of exotic places and interesting people. We are in college; classmates study abroad all the time. Siblings, significant others and best friends constantly deal with distance. I do not think I am the first person to worry about a relationship shift. So until I can be the one packing my bags for a foreign country, (Buenos Aires, here I come) I will have to figure out a way to come to terms with circumstances out of my control, just like everyone else.

The rest of the world should follow the lead of the Spanish but go a few steps further by including all highly intelligent animals, not just apes.

Leap Year

No leap of imagination for ‘Leap Year’

Star power keeps “Leap Year” from being a complete failure. Honestly, I’m fine to sit for two hours and watch Matthew Goode strut around in sexy sweaters – which is lucky since there’s not much else happening here.
