Favorite Quotes: "Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward together in the same direction" - Antoine de Saint-Exupery
"Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. THAT'S relativity." -Albert Einstein
From Overheard at College...
University of Michigan
Girl #1: I couldn’t study 24/7; my brain would explode.
Girl #2: I wish my brain would explode … then I could take a break.

"Ooo, I'm Alison, I hope that boy I think is cute ignores my existence," - Julie
