Integrating Gestures: The interdisciplinary nature of gesture (Gesture Studies 4)By: Mika Ishino (editor), Gale Stam (editor)Hardback
Up to 1 WeekUsually despatched within 1 week
DescriptionGestures are ubiquitous and natural in our everyday life. They convey information about culture, discourse, thought, intentionality, emotion, intersubjectivity, cognition, and first and second language acquisition. Additionally, they are used by non-human primates to communicate with their peers and with humans. Consequently, the modern field of gesture studies has attracted researchers from a number of different disciplines such as anthropology, cognitive science, communication, neuroscience, psycholinguistics, primatology, psychology, robotics, sociology and semiotics. This volume presents an overview of the depth and breadth of current research in gesture. Its focus is on the interdisciplinary nature of gesture. The twenty-six chapters included in the volume are divided into six sections or themes: the nature and functions of gesture, first language development and gesture, second language effects on gesture, gesture in the classroom and in problem solving, gesture aspects of discourse and interaction, and gestural analysis of music and dance.

Ok, the seasons been out for a bit now so I thought ya'll wikiers and I could have a conversation about the season and your predictions. This blog is a little late considering episode 3 is coming out in half an hour (#hype) but I figured might as well make. So, who are you watching this season? Who do you think will be the most over powered? Who do you think will become victorious or claim the omst kills to there name? What do you think about the newish roster?
I'm watching a lot of perspectives this season. I'm watching Graser, Straub, Grape, Huawhi, Talekio, Tomahawk, Poke, Tofuu, M4M, and Mitch. I personally think that Tomahawk or Grape might be the powerhouse in terms of stuff. I'm kind of upset about M4M's and Poke's start in terms of …Read more >
So erm, everyone started to make on of these blog things and I felt left out on the fun so I decided to make one as well!
Today, I want to hear your storys on how you first came upon The Cube family and your first opinions of it.
I remember my experience as if it was a little more than a year ago (oh wait it was) when I had been stumbling around on this cheerful green frog's channel when I saw Ultra Hardcore Season 2. By the title I was instantly hooked. I had watched the whole season and found myself curious to the first season so I found it on Graser's channel and was hooked yet again and loved the personality. I then watched more videos from the group and loved every least one of them!
So ehm, what's your story?Read more >

Last night's Raw increased nine percent over last week in the ratings and did the best number since the post-Royal Rumble episode, averaging 3.35 million viewers.
What's noticeable is that despite the fact that there was no real advertised main event, the third hour held up much better than usual. It was the highest rated third hour since the Monday after WrestleMania last year.
The show opened with 3.351 million viewers for hour one and increased to 3.429 million viewers for the second hour. This was the first week of Daylight Savings Time, and the second hour has traditionally been the highest rated in recent years once DST kicks in. The third hour only dropped to 3.275 million, which was just 2.3 percent down from hour one, the best such audience retention since July of last year.
It's possible that people were expecting either Ronda Rousey or Brock Lesnar to make a late appearance since both were advertised for the show, but it was made very clear early on that Lesnar wasn't there. As for Rousey, they were promising a recap of her angle from recent weeks, but the announcers never said she'd be there.
Another notable aspect is that the overrun only ran three minutes -- as opposed to most weeks where it is anywhere from seven to 15 minutes. It's possible that more of their audience is leaving during that overrun than is realized.
Raw finished first on cable in terms of total viewers by a significant margin, beating the second place show by almost 200,000 viewers. The three hours were also the top three in all of cable in terms of the 18-49 demo, averaging 1.16 over the entire broadcast.

Revising sentences
Today I have been learning about the word DRAFT. DRAFT is like an acrostic poem. Each letter of this word means something in writing. Today we have been focusing on the D.D stands for delete.
In my class Miss Paton shared with us a piece of writing in which we had to delete, take out words and change sentences. Here is my piece of writing.

Miss Paton has a cat. His name is Oscar. He is a tabby cat. Oscar can be a pain in the neck. He likes to sniff my rubbish bin. He always come to my house wanting food. Oscar likes to fall asleep on my couch. He does not like my laptop computer. He would rather sit on my lap. Oscar would like me to give him the attention.

What's in my lunch box?
Is your lunch a healthy lunch? Why / Why Not?
What was the healthiest?
What was the least healthy and why?
What is missing from your lunch box?
I think my food is unhealthy because my meat is fried and it is cooked in oil. My banana cake is also unhealthy food. The banana cake has sugar in it and it has preservatives.
I am missing fruit, vegetables, sandwiches, yoghurt and meat (which is not fried) in my lunch box.
My lunch needs more healthy food and more variety.

Dance reflections
Friday July 3
Dance 1 We are learning to use movement from a book that is called "In the beginning". Our movement are based on this book. I have learnt,
- Hand dance
- kowhaiwhai patterns
- magnetic hand and magnetic hand means to follow the other person hand.
- Kaleidoscope
I liked doing the magnetic hand because it is fun to following the other person.
The movement we used from the book is the
- twisted
- curved
- angular
- stretched
I think it is great to dance and I am really looking forward to doing another dance or movements.

On a la version française de cette site en préparation. Veuillez pardonner les gênes occasionnées.
At Deux Mille Feuilles Montessori school our teachers, management and staff believe in growing naturally as children love to learn and to discover – in their own natural way. We believe that understanding, enjoying and respecting nature complements the classroom experience. Therefore we offer them a rich and stimulating environment inside and outside in nature. At our school children do not only learn for the moment, but gain a preparation for life. Our children learn to respect themselves as well as respect the differences of others. For us building self-assurance, developing trust in others and learning to respect go hand-in-hand.
We love the enrichment different cultures and languages from all over the world are bringing to our children. And we can see that appreciating different cultures and learning languages early in life are a pre-requisite to be at ease in today's complex world.
All this is at the heart of everything we do – and our promise to you by acting caring, personal and trustful.
Conny Tosch, Directrice
I am welcoming you to our Montessori school Deux Mille Feuilles! As your first person of contact at school I am very happy to help and support with all your questions and needs. Originally I am a psychologist and a nutritionist with more than 10 years of business experience but found my passion in the field of education and learning. I am part-time teaching psychology at Ruhr University in Bochum, Germany, but also get taught every day by my three little children: about the miracles of life, how to show my love and passion towards them and of course about education. Having lived in Germany, the USA, Austria, France and now in Switzerland has taught me that meeting someone leaves tracks in your heart – a credo I believe in and I am following in my daily life and every interaction.

Born in Ireland, mother of five, I studied at the AMI Montessori Institute in London. Earlier in my career I worked with special needs children both in Ireland and the UK. I have been teaching Bilingual and multilingual children for more than twenty years. I've held my current position, as the English speaking Montessori teacher since 2009. I believe that all children deserve an education which is tailored to their individual needs, which can help them to become confident and competent in themselves and in their education. This is supported by "Deux Milles Feuilles" Montessori, where the children's individuality is at the core of our teaching.
Medhavi Kumararatne, English teacher
Hello, I am Medhavi Kumararatne (Mimi) a primary trained Montessori Directress from Sri Lanka. I have obtained an AMI Equivalent Montessori Diploma from Sri Lanka, and AMS Montessori 3-6 Diplomas during my work time in Canada. I gained more than 15 years of experience working at different Montessori environments in Sri Lanka, Canada, in Europe - Belgium and now in Switzerland, at an AMI, AMS and Bilingual Montessori schools.
I am a mother of two grown up children. A daughter and a son. Both my children began their journey of learning by stepping into the Montessori world. It opened the doors for me to experience the Montessori education and later I started to volunteer at different Montessori and primary schools where my children attended in different countries. With my own experience as a mother and a Montessori Teacher, I believe Montessori Education provides a good foundation and structure to build a well balanced and strong personality to walk through the life journey with independence. I am happy, that I found the opportunity to join the professional team at Deux Mille Feuilles in this beautiful country, Switzerland as a Montessori teacher as I can see their clear Montessori vision towards preparing today's children for future world!
Lucia Bonanni - Enseignante Montessori
Je suis Lucia Bonanni, éducatrice sociale de formation, et j'ai travaillé dans le domaine du sociale pendant plusieurs années dans différents pays (l'Italie, la Roumanie, la France et l'Espagne).
J'ai connu la pédagogie Montessori
lorsque mon premier enfant est né, en cherchant une autre approche pour l'accompagner dans son apprentissage. Les valeurs de cette pédagogie m'ont tout de suite conquise et depuis je m'en inspire
à la maison. Mes enfants, de 9 et 7 ans, sont également scolarisés dans une école Montessori.
Depuis plusieurs années j'envisageais de faire de ma passion mon métier et l'année passée j'ai eu l'occasion de me former en tant qu'assistante Montessori à l'Institut de Formation Maria Montessori (IFMM) à Genève et d'intégrer l'équipe de Deux Mille Feuilles.
Je suis Samantha Pinet, enseignante Montessori depuis 9 ans et également éducatrice de la petite enfance. Travailler avec des enfants a toujours été une véritable vocation.
Je suis une personne passionnée par mon métier et toujours très à l'écoute des enfants et des parents. J'ai étudié en Sciences de l'éducation à l'université de Genève et également à l'école d'éducatrice de la petite enfance. J'ai rencontré la pédagogie Montessori il y a 8 ans et depuis j'utilise cette pédagogie au quotidien avec mes deux enfants. Je trouve que cette méthode constitue la meilleure façon d'apprendre pour les enfants, puisqu'elle respecte chaque individu en lui donnant des clefs de son propre développement.
Sindy Reis - Enseignante pour la petite enfance
Récemment diplomée en tant que Assistante Socio-Éducative, j'ai toujours été attiré par la pédagogie Montessori. Lors de ma formation, je l'ai d'ailleurs appliqué. Convaincue de cette façon d'enseigner, je n'ai pu constaté que des effets positifs.
De nature patiente et à l'écoute, je souhaite participer au développement de vos enfants, de manière à ce qu'ils puissent évoluer à leur rythme tout en favorisant l'autonomie.

Bilingual Montessori school in La Rippe near Nyon now under new management
Two parents in Vaud have recently taken over the management of the Ecole Montessori Nyon for the age group 3 to 6, to allow the school to focus more on the needs of parents and to ensure high quality AMI Montessori education for their children and those of other parents.
Renamed Deux Mille Feuilles, the school will cater for the needs of children aged up to 6 years, and will offer a unique bilingual version of the popular Montessori approach to education.
Cornelia Tosch, co-Director with two daughters at the school, told knowitall.ch, "We believe in child-centered education, that values and develops the whole child – physical, emotional, social and cognitive. At our school, children do not learn for the moment, but gain a preparation for life. Our children not only learn to respect themselves, but as well to respect others. For us building self-assurance, developing trust in others and learning to respect go hand-in-hand. We have built the school around 3 main pillars: high quality bilingual Montessori education; nature and health; and care and service for children and parents."
The school believes that full bilingual immersion is the most natural way to acquire a new language, so children spend one week immersed in English followed by a second week in French. There are two identical classrooms, one with English Montessori material, the other with French. Children alternate on a weekly basis between the English and French teachers, who are native speakers and AMI Montessori certified. The school follows the one-person-one-language principle so children can link one language to every person.
Situated on the foothills of the Jura mountains in La Rippe, Deux Mille Feuilles enjoys a uniquely idyllic setting. A large tree-shaded park serves as a daily play and discovery area for the children, who take regular walks through the fields and forest in the immediate surroundings of the school. When the windows are open, the children can also hear the sound of a nearby flowing creek.
Bilal Ojjeh, co-Director with a son at the school, told knowitall.ch, "Being a child- and parent-centered school means that we are very service-oriented, caring not only for the child but the parents too. We offer full day care from 7h30 – 18h00, a free bus service to Nyon and surrounding areas, and healthy meals that are freshly prepared on site every day. The personal touch is very important to us, and the small size of the school makes it possible to react flexibly to parent needs."
One parent with a child at the school told knowitall.ch, "We chose the school as they offer bilingual Montessori education combined with a high level of service - the combination of pre-school, lunchtime and after-school care all in the same location, transport from the surrounding areas, and the bilingual schooling, as well as the Montessori teaching methods. But on top of that, we love the setting in the middle of the forest - what a great place to go to school! All this topped off with the amazing and friendly pastoral staff, and this school is a winner!"
Classes start at 9h and end at 15h on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, and 12h on Wednesdays and Fridays. Free before-school care is offered between 7h30 and 8h45, but there is an additional charge for after-school care until 18h.

Weighing The Pros & Cons Of Simulator Training, Computer- Based Training & Computer Testing & Assessment
- Harold Farmer
- 1 years ago
- Views:
1 Weighing The Pros & Cons Of Simulator Training, Computer- Based Training & Introduction David Edmonds (PC Maritime Ltd) This paper examines the use of simulators and other programs which are totally self contained requiring only a standard desktop or notebook computer for operation. These fall within Category III (Part task) and Category IV (single task) from the draft proposals for the use of simulators for training and assessment 1. There are simulators of this type which are the vehicles of instruction, but don t themselves actually instruct. This paper shows how CBT and simulation can be combined to provide the dual role of: 1. providing a learning system which delivers effective training on its own without requiring the customer to create exercises nor to supervise the learning process. 2. providing a tool for instructors to control, brief or debrief and assess the student s performance. I am excluding simulators which are designed specifically for use in a formal training environment such as a Maritime College (Full Mission Simulators, ARPA Simulators, GMDSS Simulators) which are dependent on supporting hardware. Such simulators are provided on the basis that instructors control and monitor exercises. Transferring the same style to CBT & PC-based simulators can leave the student without focus, allowing him to "play if he is unsupervised. It also imposes a large hidden cost on the customer who has to create and then supervise exercises. Throughout the presentation I will use Officer of the Watch to provide examples of the points I am making. What Is Available And What Can It Do? CBT and Simulators are costly to develop. The industry is going through a substantial re-appraisal of training standards. Consequently, the programs currently available tend to cover universal topics where the benefits of simulation are well understood. Simulators Tutorials & testers Operational systems Bridge simulators Collision regulations Weather information systems (sat, fax etc) Radar Lights & shapes Electronic chart systems Engine Buoyage systems Loading & stability I have included examples of operational programs which can perform a useful function within a training programme.
2 Key Requirements of CBT & Simulators A key role for a PC-based training system is for use remotely - whether literally (on a ship or in another country) or just in a classroom where learning takes place without the active presence of an instructor. In other words, for distance learning. A PC is, after all, an individual workstation and this is the main difference between it and more costly hardware platforms. So the software to run on a PC should also be self-sufficient. We remember 10% of what we read 20% of what we hear 30% of what we see 50% of what we hear and see For a program to be effective in this way there are some key requirements which it should satisfy. reinforcement and feedback Firstly I would like to briefly summarise why CBT is effective. 75% of what we say 90% of what we say and do Well, this slide indicates that the best I can hope is that you will remember up to 50% of this presentation. In fact most people learn best through a mix of learning methods: reading, lectures and tutorials, videos, computer programs and practice all combine to build comprehension and confidence. Simulation and CBT does not exclude or replace the need for these other components of learning. And, of course, actual performance of the job is a key part of the process. I see CBT as being most effective for the following: 1. To replace the traditional chalk and talk lecture - once described as the transfer of information from the notebook of the lecturer to the notebooks of the students without going through the minds of either. Many of the facts which have to be learned can be delivered informatively and interestingly by CBT. The retention of the material can be tested by the same programs. This releases instructor time for tasks at which he is more effective: debriefing, reviewing, discussing and directing. 2. To provide an environment for practise, at the student s own pace and in his own time. 3. To provide an environment for assessment, including self-assessment. Learning theory has long established that students learn more effectively if they are actively involved in the learning process (interaction), are given feedback on their progress and have the opportunity to repeat and practice (reinforcement). Page 2 of 2
3 Control over the student The natural function of a simulator is to model a complete environment. This can give the student the means to avoid the situations designed to test him. But if the simulator forces the student to confront the situation designed to test him, he will be motivated to perform well and his attention will be focused on a satisfactory outcome to the exercise. A PC-based simulator should provide this control. Focusing on a single learning objective Say, for example, the training objective is to teach or test a single element of watchkeeping procedure. In this case the provision of the full capabilities of a simulator is distracting. It is desirable to limit the student's access to only those elements of the simulator which are relevant. In Officer of the Watch, the instructor can deny access to parts of the simulation (such as the visual view, the radar, the playback, the expert system the telegraph and the autopilot) which are not relevant to the learning objective of the exercise. For example, if the purpose of a lesson is to develop radar plotting skills, then access can be denied to the visual view. This provides a system on which material with measurable training outcomes can be delivered and later assessed and discussed at debriefings. Structured training material As well as providing the simulator where the training material is delivered to the student, PC Maritime also offer a range of courses to run on the simulator. These cover elements of IMO model courses, ranging from the identification of lights and shapes to simulation case studies to build understanding of problem areas. "Tell them what you're going to teach them, then teach them, then tell them what you taught them". This overcomes a significant "hidden" cost associated with training and the use of simulators which is the effort and expertise required to produce course material. In-built Intelligence A simulator s use is limited if it performs the same every time a student runs it. One way to overcome this is to have an instructor on hand. The other PC-based way is build in a form of Artificial Intelligence, the Expert System. The engine of Officer of the Watch is a knowledge of the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea. This Expert System monitors the actions of all vessels and allows target vessels to be directed to obey the Rules, so that an exercise develops interactively with vessels responding to the student's decisions and actions. Hence the outcome of the exercise will not be the same each time it is run. Page 3 of 3
4 The benefits of in-built intelligence are: 1. It allows students to develop analysis and decision-making skills, to learn from mistakes and "discover" principles and concepts for themselves. 2. It advises the student. In the case of Officer of the Watch it is a Captain Call which interprets the Rules for the student and gives detailed information about targets including: aspect, constraints, CPA, TCPA and so on. 3. It allows the creation of realistic and truly interactive lessons. In Officer of the Watch, Expert System-controlled target vessels will alter course to avoid collision and resume course and speed as soon as they are passed and clear. (Rogue vessels can also be defined to follow pre-defined tracks and waypoints.) I give this example as an approach that can be applied to many elements of the curriculum to provide effective CBT. Assessment / Performance Analysis. Information is required about the student s performance to assess his competency and understanding. This information must be stored for review. Figure 1 Page 4 of 4
5 In the case of Officer of the Watch all actions taken by the student are recorded (use of radar, binoculars, change of course, results of questions etc). An instructor can review a series of logs to show watchkeeping procedures and the results of tests including A Bridge Log A Question and Answer Log (Figure 1) to record the student's answers A Profile Log (Figure 2) to provide the instructor with a graphical readout of the student's watchkeeping such as whether he is keeping a balanced visual lookout. Figure 2 A Playback view of the charted area (Figure 3). Buttons allow time-marked tracks of the vessels to be run forwards in slow or fast time or to be paused. Additional tools measure the range and bearing between any two points (such as between a specific time on the track of any two vessels), and to get information about the course, speed and constraints for any vessel at any time along its track. Page 5 of 5
6 Figure 3 These facilities provide a forum for debate and debriefing. The actions of Own Ship and target ships can be analysed in depth. This facility is also useful in a straight teaching mode, where the instructor can use the program to illustrate his points. Ease of use Another hidden cost to a customer is the time the instructor needs to spend learning how to use a program and then teaching his students how to use it before training can begin. The user interface of a program must be intuitive so that new users or those with limited computer experience are not distracted or delayed by language or culture from attending to the learning objectives of their time on the system. This is particularly important in the less developed countries where exposure to computers may be limited. In the case of our ROR simulator, Officer of the Watch, customers have reported that with the aid of a 4-page graphic student reference card, students can start to use the program effectively in under one hour. Using it to best effect: We are currently in a transitional stage where the industry is re-examining training and assessment. The emphasis in the future is sure to be on the measurement of competency of Page 6 of 6
7 trainees rather than oral and written examinations which measure the retention of knowledge. It is recognised that many trainee watchkeepers and senior officers are not getting the opportunity to acquire the skills at the workface for a variety of reasons. 2 and that currently assessments for certificates of competency continue to test the ability to retrieve information rather than to apply it to real tasks on a ship. 3 The consultants to the review of the STCW convention have identified that the use of parttask training programs is an increasingly important resource if simulators are to be used effectively to ensure that the relatively large numbers of officers required over the next decade possess the necessary operational skills. 4 and that narrowing the job gap and that between the assessment at maritime academies and shipboard reality has become increasingly important 5 In the STCW review a number of factors have been specified for effective simulator based training: 6 1. The development of specific training objectives 2. The selection of tasks relevant to the training purpose and operational skills needed onboard. 3. Exercise pre-briefing, control, monitoring and de-briefing techniques are understood and used effectively by the instructor. 4. The simulator provides a suitable operating environment for the selected objectives and training tasks. Identifying training objectives and the tasks to which they can be applied is the province of the authorities and not commercial organisations such as PC Maritime. Items 3 & 4 are partially dependent on manufacturers providing the necessary tools. The graphic displays and processing power of PCs are increasing rapidly and achievement of a high correlation between the simulated world and the real world is becoming increasingly satisfied. I illustrate this point with a screen from the next version of Officer of the Watch (Figure 4), due out shortly, which will project real views from the ship, work in real navigation areas and provide more analysis and monitoring such as, for example, recording collision with other vessels or navigation marks for de-briefing. Page 7 of 7
8 Figure 4 The trend towards dual role cadets, who have to learn about the deck, the bridge and the engine room, places a greater burden of learning on them. It is one thing to absorb the knowledge required. To achieve competency that knowledge has to be practised and skills and confidence developed. Moreover there are stages in an officer s career where some aspect of his professional skills, such as watchkeeping, are under-used and he needs to refresh and practise them. Part-task simulators such as Officer of the Watch are able to aid the learning of parts of the curriculum such as watchkeeping skills and testing of competency in this area. As clear learning objectives are formalised by the authorities and training institutions then the PC-based simulator can play an increasing role in delivering the knowledge required for elements of the curriculum in an efficient and cost-effective way, supplementing and complementing courses at Colleges and on full-scale bridge simulators. Page 8 of 8
9 Profiting From Simulator Training Within Cost Constraints The portability and flexibility of today's personal computer means that effective training and practice can be made available to the student onboard, at shore offices or at colleges. The use of PC-based simulators is already benefiting many companies. They are being used in-house at training schools and onboard, for training and retraining and assessment. Feedback suggests that for onboard training, greater success is obtained where there is a training officer who is responsible for defining the use of the simulator, and then keeping in regular contact to monitor its use. The Hanseatic Marine Training School have found that junior officers from South America and the Philippines have accepted Officer of the Watch very quickly and have asked for more lessons using it. Clearly training programs which motivate and stimulate the students are likely to produce time and cost savings. The Course Modules that we have developed have been beneficial in getting customers up and running with the simulator very quickly without having to re-invent the wheel to create course material for training objectives which are similar for everyone. The current content of Officer of the Watch courses is listed in the appendix. Conclusion An aim often expressed is remission of sea time, but I wonder if a more realistic approach for shipowners and managers to get cost savings and quality training out of CBT and PCbased simulators is reduction of college time. Some consider that sea time requirements are already short enough and that greater benefit should be obtained from making that time more effective, thus putting the training closer to the job. If onboard training with simulators takes place in the acquisition of competency, then there should be some means of recognising this. However, much of the knowledge and skills which officers have to assimilate during the course of their training could be delivered as part of a distance learning programme which meet learning objectives and which, with today s satellite communications, could be monitored and controlled by appropriate bodies ashore. With liaison between manufacturers such as PC Maritime and the authorities and maritime colleges, I hope that further progress will be made in this direction. I believe this strategy can be cost-effective for the training providers, and motivating and effective for the learners. Page 9 of 9
10 Appendix OOW COURSE MODULES Each course consists of a number of lessons supplied on disk to load into OOW Simulator. The documentation for each course includes the following information for the instructor: Any materials required The expected time required by the student to complete each lesson References to IMO Model courses and standard textbooks A description of the course and lessons The learning objectives Comments for the instructor A plot of the correctly completed lesson if appropriate A summary of the content and objectives of the course is provided for the student. At the start of each lesson, the student is told what the learning objective of the lesson is and what he is expected to do to complete the lesson successfully. During any lesson the student may be asked questions about the material being taught. His answers will be recorded in the OOW Simulator Log so that the instructor can assess his performance in detail. Although most lessons are designed for self-study and do not require instructor direction, many can be used as "visual aids" in a classroom or seminar. Page 10 of 10

Rezoning Plan
It's important that the Baltimore City community muster all the support it can behind Mindy Mintz's call for delaying rezoning of the city schools until 1994 ("City Schools Shut Out Parents," March 7).
As a member of the community advisory committee Ms. Mintz said was ignored, I wholeheartedly agree with her assessment.
It's important to recognize, however, that to the extent the committee or the community was ignored, it was not intentional. I have had a number of positive meetings with members of the Planning Department at which I could get whatever information I needed.

Excuse me as I try to reign in my emotions and stop crying! I had heard that Butterfly Weeds was an emotional read that might require the use of several tissues. As the end approached, I was proud of myself that I had only leaked tears a couple of times. And then, the epilogue came, and I lost it! To be honest, even now thinking back to it is making my eyes well up again. Such a sweet and beautiful 4 star story!
Julia and Will have known one another since they were just kids. Once they become teenagers, Will begins to intensely pursue Julia. When Julia finally agrees, their love story starts. They fall madly in love, but Julia has dreams and aspirations that eventually carry her out of their small town, leaving Will behind. Soon after leaving, she just isn't sure how to make their relationship work. So, the next decade, they spend their lives apart but never fully leaving one another. Their paths keep crossing, keeping the feelings alive. For Will, his feelings never dimmed or faltered. As for Julia, her feelings get clouded by the pursuit of her career and she seems to become convinced that this is more important than anything else.
I truly did like and connect with Julia, but she also made me so mad, especially when it came to Will. I just couldn't understand some of her decisions. Will was absolute perfection. He was so in love with Julia and made it known.
Along the way, Will became a musician. It was through his beautiful songs that I couldn't contain my emotions. He wrote a couple of songs for Julia that were so touching. I am still baffled at how she didn't just melt because I for sure did. His love for Julia was so clear and her constant indecisiveness hurt him so deeply. I connected so much with Will that I literally felt his pain at her very many wrong decisions. I just wanted to shake her and make her see the light. It was almost like she was afraid that she would lose herself if she gave all of heart to someone.
I loved so much about Butterfly Weeds. The story was so real and the characters were so relatable and most importantly, it had a very happy ending! I did have a little bit of a problem keeping up with the timing of the events. As the chapters changed, different amounts of time had passed and it would sometimes take me a while to figure out exactly how much time had passed at that point. Still, I completely loved Butterfly Weeds. It was such an emotional, lovely story that I definitely recommend! I can't wait for My Butterfly, Will's story. Clearly I loved him to pieces, so, of course, I will have to read his story :)
Here's the book trailer for My Butterfly, due out this summer!
