Well, I'm home sick and I'm feeling legitimately guilty that I'm missing work, because normally today I work in a class of fifth graders and I miss them a whole lot. But, to brighten up my day and yours, I'm introducing a new post idea for the blog.
Every week, I will bring to you a hodgepodge of links that bring me unabated joy - the Junk Drawer of links, if you will. Most people in real life have that one drawer in the kitchen or the office that holds everything you can't be bothered to organize properly. Mine has printer paper, a sewing kit, cough drops, and old Blue Books.
That is the idea of the Junk Drawer post: everything I can't be bothered to organize into 13 Years of Clutter relevant posts, but that I want to share with you anyway. :)
- Aladdin from Compton. This hilarious re-dub of some scenes in Aladdin may be overdoing it, but it makes me laugh all the same.
- The Top Ten Benefits of Play. Even after seeing all those annoying "Be a player" ads (seriously, they couldn't find a better wording?) with Shrek on them all over the city, I never realized that playing is essential until I saw this. As for how I'm going to put that knowledge to use, well that's another story.
- Toilet paper roll sculptures. This is amazing. I feel like this type of thing is the ideal way to de-clutter: do something crazy awesome with some old trash, make it famous, and get people to buy it so that trash becomes worth something. Kinda far-fetched for other stuff like used paper plates though.
- Argenteuil student residence plan. Scroll to the bottom for pictures of this amazing French university dorm.
- Street With a View. Some awesome people in Pittsburgh, PA decided to make their "street view" on Google Maps more dynamic than others.
- Sushi no Suki. I played this game for hours the other night while avoiding work. I can't figure out what the title of the game is supposed to mean though. "Sushi no suck"?
- SkyDance. Beautiful aerial views of France. I just wish the video lasted longer!.
- SFGirlByBay. The title alone makes me homesick, and the photos on this blog are very pretty.
