Some people are born with the ability to carry on in conversation smoothly and naturally. I am not one of them. I am a member of the other type of person – the awkward. Not that I do not try to be natural and nonchalant when I talk, it just happens that my words come out garbled and the conversation becomes slightly uncomfortable. Eventually, though, when someone gets to know me after cracking my outer awkward shell, the conversation and interaction does become smooth and natural, it is just the getting there that is uncomfortable. Not to say that being awkward is such a bad thing to be though. To be quite honest I get quite a kick out being awkward because it makes conversation and meeting people so much more interesting and memorable. A perfect example would be this past Monday at Starbucks. My best friend Colleen and I were being our usual quirky selves and after, not seeing each other all summer due to my travels, decided to go to Starbucks to get Do you have to many books at home?

Mindspring Education Center One-to-One Instruction for All Ages

37 Auburn Ave., Suite 7A Sierra Madre, CA 91024 (626) 355-1972 www.mindspringEDC.com

Due to the high demand for her tutoring and education services, bookstore owner, Sally Morrison, is opening a new learning center here in Sierra Madre. Mindspring Education Center will cater to students (children and adults) interested in furthering their reading, writing, math, spelling, and comprehension skills. In addition, Sally offers assistance in study skills, homework, and test preparation. She also specializes in helping students with dyslexia and other learning difﬁculties. Those interested in summer sessions should contact Mindspring soon because space is limited.

As a result of this business expansion, Sally Morrison and Jeffrey Ingwalson, owners of Sierra Madre Books, will be closing the bookstore in June 2011. “We appreciate all the support we’ve received from our customers over the past few years, but are excited about our new venture. We look forward to continuing to be part of this community.”

For questions about Mindspring Education Center, please call (626) 355-1972. For questions about Sierra Madre Books, please call (626) 836-3200.
