The 123 meme

Okay...a couple of my bloggy buddies have this up so I ought to follow suit.

As I am usually in my classroom for my computing time...hmmm...let's see what I have that isn't just a word list:

Manual de gramática, for my advanced students. No, p. 123 is just a list.

The text currently used at the local University that I am tutoring a few students with...no, p. 123 is simply oral exercises.

Okay...next is my intermediate text. Ah-JA! An actual article.

It's in español. (duh)

An article about "La vida anti-estrés" (Anti-stress Life): La tensión femenina (Feminine tension)...okay, this could just totally be me here:
"Hay innumerables ejemplos de mujeres extenuadas." (There are innumerable examples of over-extended women.)
Hmmmm...sounds like an article I should go back and read...

So there you go.

Now you can SEE I did not cheat on the rules and go find something academic and extremely intellectual from my basement filled with mental masturbation--oh, I mean lit crit and theory.

I am sooooo beyond trying to sound smarter than I really am.
(That was sooooo my 20s!)

Below are the rules, let me know in a comment if you follow through or not--but I hate tagging others. Trying to rid "obligation" from my life, and thus I cannot fairly push obligation onto others!

Instructions:

1. Pick up the nearest book.
2. Open it at page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence/ phrase.
4. Blog the next four sentences/ phrases together with these instructions.
5. Don't you dare dig your shelves for that very special or intellectual book.
(6. Pass it forward to six friends.)

  2. HAHA!

    Not as easy to find a BOOK (123 pages) close by as I thought it would...what, with all the KIDDY books around here!

    I thought you'd get a kick out of what happened to be the citation!
