About Me
Hi! I'm Toni. I've been writing since I was five.

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.

Thank goodness for blogging then. ;)

So, what's your story?

Your Light Poem

July 3rd 2009 01:57


What's your favorite quote? What's your favorite poem? Do you have your wedding vows yet? Here's one way to celebrate the beauty and meaning of those words -- creating a "Light Poem."

Simply go to Shapeways, create an account, choose the words or create your own poem, and see how your own light poem comes to life.

I think it would make for a beautiful present or memento of your wedding. The words you share together in your vows, for example, are made tangible via this light holder. Shapeways can prepare this for you and deliver worldwide within 10 working days. More information here.

So here's how it works. The lady sets a date, and the LCD shows the number of days till her ideal wedding date. When an engagement ring is inserted into that pink half-sphere above the LCD, the melody "Here Comes the Bride" (The Wedding March) plays. There's even a pen on the side of the bra for signing the wedding contract

Tania:

Thank you! I hope this blog has helped others get rid of mental block and inspire them to write.

Yes, love is so complicated now! So many permutations on commitments and relationships. A simple "yes" or "no" is not enough. The world gives us so many choices now, and relationships have gone on the choices bandwagon too!

You are finally "HOME."

Congratulations!

on Movie Date for One

June 23rd 2009 09:26
Natalina: I know what you mean. I HATE it when people talk during movies. I HATE it when people text, more so when they take calls! I have shushed many people and have resisted throwing popcorn at many more. I'm a stickler for quiet while movie-watching. I don't like it when people make side comments. Ack! Watching a movie is a struggle for me. LOL!

on Remember the mixtape?

June 22nd 2009 01:31
Jason: LOL! Yeah, I remember mixtapes used to be a token of affection. Guys would give it to girls they want to date or are dating, vice versa. Then it became a burned CD.
