Everytime I read Frankenstein, the same line makes me put the book down and stare at the wall. It’s my favorite line in the book; it has its own highlighter color in my annotations. The first time I read it, I literally detoured after my last class just to tell my lit teacher how much I liked the line because I couldn’t wait until second period the next day. Here’s the line:

“Life, although it may only be an accumulation of anguish, is dear to me, and I will defend it.”

This is said by the creature. He wanted to live. He wanted to live life so badly even though he had had such a difficult one. He still loved the song of the birds and the smell of the flowers and the joy in the world even if he never got to truly experience that joy. I just. AHHHH.

He wanted to fight for a life he never got to live.

Not to be a Frankenstein apologist but if it were a choice between actually writing my essays for my degree and creating life in an act of hubris against God frankly my procrastination skills are incredibly powerful

Hello! Do you remember one of the barbie dream houses with the elevator inside that was able to be cranked up and down? I used to think the elevator was the coolest thing ever!

I think there’s at least four or more versions with the elevator. I will post some.

The original, Barbie Townhouse (1974);

Barbie Townhouse (1983); 

Barbie Townhouse (1987);

Barbie 3-Story Pink Townhouse (2013);

Now, if I remember… I actually don’t, because I never had a Barbie dollhouse :( But if I had to pick a favorite, it would be the 74 and 87 one (I love blue heh). Which one you had?
