An Education
This is the movie for Fall that I want to see. I love the idea of a coming to age British girl in the 1960’s with one of my favorite actors, Peter Saggard comes to sweep her off her feet. The 16 year old girl develop a dilemma of whether or not to go to Oxford or going to Pairs to have fun. This movie looks like it will question what an education is, book smart versus street smart, especially for a girl trying to go to college in the 1960’s. She asks, What is out there for me after school?
I am highly anticipating this movie. I will do a full review of the film after I have watched it. Who knows I might change my mind and hate it after I see it, I hope not.

Recently Tim and I have been leaning in to teas. . . more Tim than I. He has always had an interested in them due to Kevin Rose on Digg. For our 5 year anniversary I went to Teavana in the mall and got him the perfect tea maker along with some flavored tea. A mix of Hazelnut Dolce rooibos tea and MartVana herbal tea, its a good mix but I recommend it on a cold rainy day. We got burned out the tea fast in the middle of summer. We liked the “perfect tea maker” even though the easy cleaning is not so easy.
We got up the courage to buy something at Lupica, also a lose tea store in the mall . We had been in many times but never got anything, we would just stand in aww at it all, with the occasional droll showing.
To say the least we can’t seem to stop drink tea. There is no such thing as coffee anymore. We even picked up an electrical water kettle and we go through 5 gallons of water so fast!
Our first purchases from Lupicia were:
Matcha Kirara Rice Tea – perfect breakfast tea, matcha give an extra boost, the rice give it nice favor, good hot or cold. A fav! We are already on our 3rd bag.
Strawberry – made with black tea, just recently found out it is much better cold than hot, not a favorite, but we’ll drink it
Golden Honey Dew- with rooibos (red tea), sweet , decaffeinated (evening tea). My personal favorite so far. Smells oh so good.

Free download of the music at http://olympus.eu/penstory/”
DUDE! Its like a still motion within a still motion! I liked that not only did they do a still video but I liked how the presented it. That has become a big part of art now a days. What/where is the venue/gallery? How are you going to show case it? Traditional or unconventional? Its all up to you and how you want to show your work and that makes it all more interesting.
