November 7, 2008 -- TGIF

Discovered:
My dad ended up in the hospital last Monday because of vertigo. I didn't know much about it, but thanks to Wikipedia and my smarter friends, I totally do now. It's a symptom of a neurological / inner ear disorder, which is scary, and the doctors don't know as much about it as I would hope. Anyway, he is better now. but the incident made me realize how little I can do to help, being that I am so far away from my family.

Learned:
The Great October Revolution took place on this day in 1917 in the former Soviet Union. This used to be once of the most celebrated holidays of my childhood. Merely 91 years later, the holiday is barely known by the new generation. Sentimentally sad :(.

Purchased:
A pretty black chiffon dress. I haven't worn it yet... but I am dying for an occasion to bring it out. Calypso is slowly becoming a favorite of mine, although I vowed not to give into overpriced trendy adorable stores.
