Princess Portal

Today I wanted to share with you my most favorite site in the whole wide web. It's called Princess Portal, and though it is no longer added to, as the owner decided it was time to move on to new horizons, it is still home to some of the most beautiful writing known to princess-kind. All you have to do is go to the archives section, and you can read the many articles that I like to think changed my perspective on life, in a good way, of course.

The image above is one from Princess Portal, and if you find you enjoy Princess Skye's photography, you can click the link to her flickr account for more images. I hope you enjoy her site as much as I do! Oh! I almost forgot- here's the link: http://princessportal.com/blog/

Positive thought: "I am a princess. All girls are. Even if they live in tiny old attics. Even if they dress in rags, even if they aren't pretty, or smart, or young. They're still princesses. All of us. "-Sara Crewe, A Little Princess, 1995

Books and Thoughts

I apologize for not posting in over a week, but I have been busy with many things, some of which include some new projects I've begun. I can't wait to unveil them, but all in due time!

Today I reserved a few books from my local library, so hopefully I will be able to read them between all of my other summer projects. I reserved "The Alchemist; The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel," "The Reformed Vampire Support Group," The Tales of Beedle the Bard," and "Shiver." When I finish reading them I will be sure to tell you how they were.

I have also decided to try to incorporate something new into Almost There. It's going to be a positive thought, and I will try to add one at the end of each post. Today's positive thought is: "The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all."- The Emperor of China, Mulan, 1998
