Timing.

14 November 2013

It's a hard thing, balancing things. I don't know how those circus folk do it.

I'm of course talking in the metaphorical sense and not about literally balancing things, like say a chair on my chin which for the record, I definitely can't do. Don't ask how I know this I just do.

You see, coming out of the blogfest that was October, I was very inspired and excited to blog some more, but then more and more things started getting added to my plate (metaphorical again). I had this bright idea to participate in NaNoWriMo, and while I've made some progress, most of my time has been spent writing papers for school. I'm almost done my semester, yay! But because I've been spending most of my time writing papers (and prepping for my exams) my timing has been really off with everything else I love doing like marathoning Ravenswood and writing on the blog. Honestly, I don't know how you other bloggers do it.

Seriously though, how to you guys manage your time to do it all? I mean clearly you guys have busier social lives than I do, so you must be magic. Teach me the way of the force.

I guess I'm still figuring out my groove, and until then (or until December 15 when I'm finished for the semester) posts are going to be a little sporadic. I do have some fun posts lined up for the rest of the month, just waiting to be written out including a blog hop! Woo!

Have a happy Thursday!

Being Sick & Other Thoughts

23 October 2013

Brace yourselves, this post is going to be a little random,  I'm on a lot of cold medication.

When you live in a country where the temperature can go from disgustingly warm to freezing cold over night, it's pretty impressive if you don't manage to get a stuffed nose. My stuffed nose has merged into a sore throat, and a constant migraine.

On the plus side, being sick has allowed me to accomplish some pretty cool things. Like start reading the final book of the Divergent series. Basically I'm glued to the couch watching Netflix and reading Allegient. Speaking of Netflix, I found Pretty In Pink on Netflix the other day and realized I had never seen it. Crazy, right? That problem has been solved now.

Also, Mindy Kaling is adorable and I want to be friends with her. True story.

And BBM for iPhone and Android? I feel like I everyone just started posting their thingies on social media and I had no idea what was happening. So naturally I jump on that train only to be wait-listed to use it. Lame.

Also, you guys know how I feel about Katy Perry. Her new album, Prism was released, so thats also been playing.

I think that's about it for me today. Someone send me some OJ and tea. Thanks

Don't sweat the small stuff

16 October 2013

Today's been one of those days...

I'm generally a very positive person, and wouldn't want to subject you guys to my complaining, but this is my blog and I can do whatever I want, so there.

Ever have one of those days where everything kind of just, makes you irritated? People are just particularly stupid that day, and nothing is fast enough. The bus is late, the person talking on their phone is too loud, and that blog post you've been working on for well over an hour just doesn't look right?

Well that's how my day has been. It hasn't been a bad day per se, it has more or less been a "meh"  day. To be honest I didn't even notice things were bugging me until I started to write my post for today, which, I might add, was over two hours ago.  At first I didn't know what I was going to write about, so I checked out my list of ideas in my handy dandy Star Wars Moleskin (I know, totes awesome) and got some really great creative juices flowing. It's just, nothing worked out as I had wanted. It wasn't flowing, but in all the wrong directions, and I ramble and go all over the place most of the time, so that says something. I guess I just wasn't happy with the quality of the post.

I wanted to write something that I'm happy with, that I enjoy writing, and that you guys would enjoy reading, but it just wasn't happening. I actually got really frustrated and debated not writing anything. But I made "Blogtober" so that I could complete some things off of my list (procrastinate less and take more risks). You might not think blogging every day would be a risk, but it opens doors for me. If I can commit to writing everyday, than I can commit to other things (like actually going bungee jumping instead of just saying, "yeah, that'd be cool"). I just wanted to feel like I accomplished something I'm proud of. I really only came to this conclusion after writing the last few paragraphs, but who cares if the post didn't pan out? Today I climbed the proverbial "hump" and it left me a little out of breath, but I'm not going to sweat it. Don't ever sweat the small stuff. Don't over think things, and have a little freaking fun.

I just needed a day to ramble and not really care about the content of the post, so here you guys go. Tomorrow is a new day, with a new post, and I'm excited to write. But for today, I'm happy with this one too.

Happy Hump Day.
