i usually don't care for youtube beauty tutorials, nor do i style my hair with any frequency, but i love sock bun girl. she's fantastic.

so i can now sing along to "ah! lève-toi soleil!" without mumbling all the words that aren't "ah! lève-toi soleil!" in what is undoubtedly an offensive french accent.

"oh. look at how much i care about that you're saying to me right now. i'm in a hammock, with flawless hair and makeup, surrounded by handsomely gloved hands, most likely on equally handsome people."

does arkansas have a coastline??

i maintain that the internet makes kids better. i would have been better/would have grown more (and cooler) if i had had the entirety of the internet at my disposal, and not just the bits that came through my dial-up/NetZero connection. working with kids at tech camp the past few years has helped this thought crystalize in my head. if anyone still wants to bemoan "the good old days", they have quite an argument stacked against them. maybe (probably) kids aren't riding bikes like they used to, but now they are able to access the entire body of work of anyone that interests them. any facet of the human experience that they want to learn more about, any obscure cranny of science that they long to understand, it's all only a google away. i could only hope to be as cool and culturally-aware and well-adjusted as this young lady at her age. at her age, i was still trying to figure out what "a/s/l" meant in AOL chatrooms when i had sleepovers with my friends...
