Blogging Yet?

Is writing something you’re willing to blog about? Do you have all sorts of writing tips, tricks, and ideas and have nowhere to share them?! You should totally start a blog. The one thing I love about having a blog is when someone likes an old post at the perfect time. It’s like a messageContinue reading “Blogging Yet?”

Writer’s Lifestyle

“I am interested in art as a means of living a life; not as a means of making a living.”  -Robert Henri. Yes this is wonderful but to be completely honest, I want both. Soon hopefully.

“Hyperrealism can create an atmosphere of surrealism because nobody sees the world in such detail.” –Salman Rushdie While I cleaned the kitchen today, I played a video of Rushdie speaking to a group of Google employees about his work.

Moving Forward

Stick to your dreams even when it gets hard. I’m still catching up with my schoolwork, but I think I’ll be all caught up by Saturday evening. Phew, I hope I don’t get sick for the rest of the semester because catching back up feels so uncomfortable. I feel like I missed out on everything.Continue reading “Moving Forward”

Right Place Right Time

Positive thinking will let you do everything better than negative thinking will. -Zig Ziglar I lean toward positive thinking, but I also have moments when I let negative thinking win. I like to use affirmations, and since I’ve been using them for so long, it’s a lot easier to apply them to real-life experiences. SayingContinue reading “Right Place Right Time”

Big Kid

“Growing old is mandatory, but growing up is optional!” – Walt Disney Thank you, Walt Disney, for giving us permission to be big kids. There’s so much to do as adults: responsibilities, leadership, saving, and giving, and all the other stuff. Why not find the things that delight your inner child? You know, I was aContinue reading “Big Kid”
