*Natalie Portman
After a rough break-up, Elizabeth sets out on a journey across America, leaving behind a life of memories, a dream, and a soulful new friend; a cafe owner--all while in search of something to mend her broken heart. Waitressing her way through the country, Elizabeth befriends others whose yearnings are greater than hers, including a troubled cop and his estranged wife and a down-on-her luck gambler with a score to settle.
Through these individuals, Elizabeth witnesses the true depths of loneliness and emptiness, and begins to understand that her own journey is part of a greater exploration within herself.

From April until June this year I did my summer internship in the events department at exchange4media. I was quite unhappy to be working in Delhi in the hot summer so I was already off to a bad start. Now that I think back though, it was a trip marked by some very memorable moments.

Hey sugars,
Just wanted to share one of my favorite late-night treats. I tend to want something sweet in the evening a few hours after dinner (since I don't usually have dessert) and this is healthy and totally hits the spot.
It's organic cottage cheese, locally grown blueberries, and organic cinnamon.

It's been a while since I blogged - and for some reason I feel like I need to blog now. I don't have much to say - thoughts are swirling around in my brain - and it doesn't look like they will slow down. I sort of feel like I'm on crack - which is strange to say, because I've never tried the stuff.

Natalie Portman was on Good Morning America this morning to talk about her upcoming film in limited release, “My Blueberry Nights,” and she told a moving story about the organization she works with, FINCA, which gives small loans to entrepreneurs in the developing nations to help change their lives. When Portman was in Uganda ten years ago she met an impoverished woman with ten daughters who was beaten frequently by her husband for not bearing him a son. The woman lived on .80 a day from her husband, but she was able to get rid of him and eventually start her own restaurant after a micro loan from FINCA:
When I was in Uganda I was lucky enough to meet this woman, Niema, she had ten daughters, and… her husband was beating her because she couldn’t make a son, and she was living on .80 a day and depending on her husband for it.
