  1. can you hear it?

    i saw this tonight and realized how much i miss the sea. have you ever spent time at the sea? a whole week by the sea? have you ever fallen asleep to the sound of it? have you ever taken walks and bike rides beside it? have you ever sat right beside it, watching your little brother and sister’s play with crabs and build sandcastles? have you ever watched the sun set behind the sea?

    if you have, you know it’s the most wonderful thing. and if you haven’t, tag along, i’m sure at some point the sinclair family will go to the sea again.

    i’m off to nyc tomorrow. off to a broadway show, baseball game, jazz club, visiting the statue of liberty and the empire state building, shopping, walking, talking… yes, it’ll be a good time.

    next weekend i’m home. and i’m looking forward to it.

    my brother(in-law). yup, we like him alot. he is awesome — but he would have to be. he got this girl, didn’t he?

    and my darling sisters with mr.nathan parente (a cool friend from PA).

    okay. that was fun, wasn’t it? or am i the only one who gets a kick out of this?

  4. royal claddagh

    June 1, 2005 by louissa

    i am, at this very moment, wearing a big gaudy ring — and i love it. now most of you, if you know me at all, know that i don’t like “big and guady.” i prefer small and delicate. but not this time. this past monday, i purchased for myself a silver claddagh ring. for those of you who don’t know what a claddagh ring looks like…

    i know, a big heart. rather cheesy, eh? rather, not very louissa. the only time i like hearts anything is on a valentine. not jewelry. and yet i love claddagh jewelry. perhaps it’s because of the family i grew up in. claddagh is celtic. a claddagh ring has been the traditional wedding ring in ireland since the 17th century. and my family is proud that they’re irish. my nana and aunts all have claddagh jewelry. i have claddagh earrings. and now a claddagh ring. or maybe that’s not the reason. whatever it is — all i know is that i love claddagh anything. it’s gaudy and yes, a heart with a crown and two hands surrounding it.

    but you’ll probably see me wearing it on a regular basis. because i love the symbol. because i’m irish. and i’m proud of it.

    and because i’m a freak! i have more pictures (check out the notes — i’m just so funny)!
