I really loved this article about how to be polite, and what politeness really means. I especially loved this tip: “Ask the other person what they do, and right after they tell you, say: “Wow. That sounds hard.””

If you’re in the market for a new desktop background, Tracy mashed up some beautiful pictures and inspiring quotes.

The most adorable map of the introvert’s heart. I had a good chuckle at “Land of Self-Checkout Lanes” – couldn’t be more true for me.

Good advice – and stellar graphic design – from Braid Creative. I especially like the idea of making friends with other creatives.

I don’t agree with everything on this list, but there are some good tips in there about travelling alone!

Joy and Tracy talked about this article, 13 Things No One Tells You About Being a Woman, on the podcast this week, and I loved their discussion of it.

I’m reading Eleanor and Park right now and I haven’t been able to concentrate on anything else all day.

Two of my photos were featured on bigger Instagram accounts over the last couple weeks: on @ig.korea here and on @travilin here. I’m on Instagram at @lifeinlimboblog!

This weekend is going to be a good one! They all seem to be good ones these days. I’m just so excited about everything coming up and I have so much to look forward to. Tomorrow we’re heading to a baseball game (let’s just hope the weather holds out!), and I really want to do some more surfing on Sunday. Of course I also have a 15K training run tomorrow, so wish me luck! Have an awesome weekend.
