Than/Then

I had a long, weird dream last night with a lot of things going on. I only just now remembered what I was so busy trying to explain to a friend through part of it.

The difference between "than" and "then."

Which I still have problems with sometimes. Even though I know exactly what each one is used for, sometimes I think about them too hard and the lines blur. Pathetic, I know.

At least the person I was trying to explain it to was a friend who does not have a grasp of grammar (and doesn't think it matters!). And is going to be teaching. Elementary school. ::facepalm::

Wednesdays are for Fashion

( Project Runway - 5.08 )

Plus, a new cycle of Top Model started tonight! Oh, what a guilty pleasure. The last few cycles I haven't been too impressed and/or interested, though I still watched. But this one? This one looks like it's going to be fabulous. There are already a bunch of girls I like and a bunch of girls that annoy me. A nice combination. Except for the part where I want to smack some of the ignorance and intolerance out of some of them.

One of the girls that didn't make it was a Harvard graduate, an English and American Literature major. When Tyra asked her who her favorite heroine was, she didn't have an answer. Tyra mentioned Jane Eyre and Rebecca. I was impressed that Tyra knew Rebecca. Then she asked her to model animals like Jack London's Call of the Wild. Every book she mentioned, the girl just shrugged and was like, "I don't know it." Either she is not good in interview scenarios, or Harvard should not have let her graduate. Holy crap.

Anyway, right now I'm loving Isis, Elina, Sheena, Analeigh, and Samantha. Samantha won me over with that story about her posing experience before (her dad being like, "Sam! Get in there with your brothers!" and then the goofy posing). Also liked McKey.

So, yes, excited about this season.
