Olive Riley, billed as the world's oldest blogger, died at age 108. In the last of her 74 entries at worldsoldestblogger.blogspot.com, Riley wrote about singing a song with her nursing home roommate.
Will I still be blogging about my life, or any random thing in general when I reach my old years? I was pleased hearing about the oldest blogger ever because it just shows how passionate she was in writing that she still made sure she had the avenue to continue what she loved doing.
Imagine blogging about your spouse at age fifty. Or sixty. Or make that a hundred.
I didn't know that until now there are still people who live such an old-school lifestyle. Yes, I know there are still indigenous people somewhere in the corners of the earth. But in the United States, a place of technology and advancement? Cuh-razy.
It felt like watching a period movie like Little Women and Pride and Prejudice. Seriously, I saw this in class when our professor made us watch a taped episode of Good Morning, America and we were all shocked to see how outrageous this thing seem. Haven't heard the news lately?

Children were taken from a polygamist house in Texas because of alleged physical abuse. Can you imagine, being brainwashed, stirring up your way of thinking about life and being a mother at the age of 13? Imagine a sixteen year old girl marrying a fifty year old DOM. It sure sounds gross. How could they ever live such lifestyle? I feel like they're stuck in time while all others leave them behind. Check those clothes and hair. I can never imagine myself being in a place like that.
You think they should still continue living this life? Win their battle for the custody of their children? Or just escape from the ranch?
Although I do believe it will be hard for the wives and children, I think it will be much better to escape from the ranch and live their own lives instead. I don't think they will be able to experience the beauty of life if they choose to stay in the polygamist house which is a far isolated closed surrounding.
What do you think?
---I bought Paramore's Riot today. I know it's a little late but I recommend you listen to it now. My apple's got pimped too! Shopping online is so sweet! Back to school tomorrow.
Today, I realized how dramatically disorganized my stuff are. I wish I had some OC-ness too so I could keep a neat and dainty room as much as possible.
