Arthur is one of those shows I started watching since pre-K and never stopped watching. My friends all scorn my love for this TV show since it's directed towards elementary school children. But watching it is one of my favorite things to do. With all these depressing poems and American literature we're reading in our English classes, I've hung onto watching this show. I'm glad I can escape to the land of Elwood City for thirty glorious minutes. Everything is fine here; I know that any accidents here will always turn out for the better, friendship issues will always be resolved, and D.W.'s imaginary friend, Nadine, will always love her even D.W. is growing up. The theme of "working together to make things better" is constant and predictable. I might not gain any new insights from this show, but I feel refreshed and calm after watching it. And sometimes, my brain really needs the rest.
Welcome!
hi! i'm janet :) i am beyond lucky to currently live in the one and only beavercreek, ohio (someday i will see a beaver here!), and have lived in boston, new york, oklahoma. my weakness is that i become interested in a new thing every other week and proceed to spend a debatably detrimental proportion of my time on said thing. so i believe my blog will follow this same trend, for better or for worse :P i love writing things and i love looking back. i hope you’ll find some happiness or practicality in this windy, twisty journey through the university of chicago that i will share with you :)
