November's Yin & Yang

Yang
Very good episodes of Gossip Girl (sans Hilary Duff!)
Talking with my bus driver
Sarah’s family over for ThanksgivingAfter taking Kelly, our favorite four-legged guest from Pennsylvania on a walk, we stopped around my neighborhood to take some photos.
Long conversations with Grandpa
(And the brick wall photos that later ensued)
Grandma and Grandpa kissing for no particular reason (I asked, and they had to scrounge for some excuse why!)
Err...possibly the result of that above kissing? (Pop pop and my daddy...can you see any similarities?)
How I now know where I got my modeling skills...
I mean, look at that man! A natural born model!
Logical trig problems
Channeling the writing style of Herman Melville
When I can see the floor of my room
Buy U A Drank
SAT Questions of the Day
Somehow Sarah and I got our whole human bio class (including the teacher) to participate in answering
If you guessed b you’re qualified to pass the SATs! (or something like that)
Day before Thanksgiving traditions
Really excellent dreams
Using gala as a synonym for party
Becky playing piano
Um...did I mention she's amazing?
***
Yin
Disposable camera induced anxiety
Terribly confusing essay prompts
Broken laptops
Dissecting chicken wings in human bio
***
There’s always a little good in the bad and a little bad in the good.

Although November's my favorite month of the year, I am very ready for December...more specifically, December break! Still, I'm going to try to remember not to waste away the time and instead really try to savour these last few weeks of '09.
Now, tell me. What's your Yin & Yang been for the past month?

  5. Your friends and family are all so photogenic :) Especially your grandpa... he really should get into the modeling industry, and I love his hat! :D And ugh, SATs... at least I don't have to worry about that for one more year...

  7. What a wonderful, cheerful set of photos! My yin: one of my family's cats passed away unexpectedly... I was heartbroken. Yang: my husband and I had a wedding banquet in Taipei for relatives who couldn't make it to our California wedding in May. It was a great time!

  11. I love the light in the first picture and the piano pictures! These posts are always fun. I should do something like them--it's nice to remember the good and bad of the month once it's over.
