My grandfather was a professor then. I remember how I'd be delighted when he'd give me paper left over from his day's lessons, and I'd sit down and doodle, draw and write.
My mother would also take home stacks of paper for recycling. I remember grabbing a pen and putting together a little book of poetry.
I always keep a pen and notebook in my bag in case inspiration hits me. There isn't a day that passes wherein I don't write.
Grow old along with me, the best is yet to be.

A beautiful, timeless quote perfect for your wedding. It would be heartwarming to use it in your wedding vows, or as part of your speech, or as a quote on your invitation.
It could even make a wedding proposal even more romantic.
Also, it's a perfect reminder of togetherness once you're married. You are to grow old with your partner, and there is a lot to look forward to together. Things will only get better with time as long as you never stop holding hands with each other.
One of my favorite TV weddings ever -- Pam and Jim's from The Office.
Here's a short clip from their wedding. Remember the viral video with the Chris Brown wedding entrance? Well apparently Michael Scott and his team got a hold of it and they decided to recreate it at Pam and Jim's wedding. Jim had anticipated this and so had a backup plan -- getting married on a boat. And then going to the church where everyone was waiting. And the dance began.
Pam and Jim are two of my favorite television characters, and their wedding was something I wondered about. How would the show pull it off without being too cheesy and expected? Well they did pull it off in true The Office style.
What can you learn from this? Well, learn from Jim. Have a backup plan in case things at your wedding don't go as expected. And anticipate. Jim said that as soon as he saw that Youtube video, he bought boat tickets the same day.
Michael Scott is getting predictable. In a cute, heartwarming way.
Classic and elegant, why not opt for a Dessert and Champagne wedding instead of giving your guests a smorgasbord of food? It gives off a simple and relaxed vibe. Can you already hear the jazz music playing in the background?
Red shoes make me feel sexy. Especially when they're stilettos. But since I have fat feet, I can only wear them at the store. I can't wear them regularly so I just try them on. Borrowed sexiness. That's kinda sad. Red shoes give me borrowed sexiness.
You can either hold yourself up to the unrealistic standards of others, or ignore them and concentrate on being happy with yourself as you are.

Wilson: Good for you! I understand her totally, as one of the main reasons why I married my husband is that he makes me laugh from the heart and the belly.
