Things to do

Things I want to start next week:

• Blog about my classes (they are all fantastic!)
• Blog about my outfits (sounds vain doesn't it? But I have so many cute outfits I want to share and hey, this is my blog to do whatever I wish with)
• Write in a journal each night (I might share some good stories once a week)
• Work on my SMASH book (details to come about this)
• Start up again with my Boom Boom! cards (again, more details to follow)

What I Read in 2011

One of the blogs that I read did a posting about all of the books she read in 2011 and I loved the idea! So here I am, eventually getting around to posting my own book list. You can check out Holly's post here! {which I highly suggest you do because I find her extremely amusing and witty}


I challenged myself over at Goodreads  to read 50 books in 2011 and I was so close! 47 out of 50 isn't too bad considering how busy I was with school. I also started at the end of February so I don't consider this a failure, just not an success. This year I reduced the list to 40, hopefully I don't end up with 37 at the end of the year. 


Holly's list involved her review on the book but I am not that ambitious. Right now I will just make the list and eventually get around to reviewing them. Hopefully I will be smart enough to write a quick review for each book I read in 2012! 


February:

 

So as I was half way through putting these pictures on I realized two things. The first was that there is no way I am getting through 47 books tonight. So here is just February. The second thing I noticed was how juvenile these books appear to be! All well, there is nothing wrong with children's literature. I am proud to say I read children's literature. 


Look back for March books sometime soon! 


And as I preview this I realize I am in need of helping putting pictures on! Any suggestions on how to properly add pictures? 

The Beginning

For some reason that is unknown to me right now, I have decided to start a blog. So now, in between midterms, a history paper, tests and quizzes I have something else to occupy my time.

On this blog, I will most likely be: ranting, discussing book and movies, sharing funny videos, etc but hopefully above all, inspiring.

Recently, I have been putting a lot of thought into what type of life I want to live. The most common thing that kept popping up with that I really want to make a difference in people's lives. My goal for 2011 is to really immerse myself in this goal. Hopefully, every time I blog, I will have something to report on this goal.

Now I am sounding presumptuous here by assuming I will have people reading this blog periodically, but I am going to invite anyone to comment and perhaps share some thoughts, ideas or comments.

This seems like quite a bit for a blog that is just starting, but there it is.

I will end this post with this quote from my calendar.

Appreciate the simple things. Notice everyday miracles.
