30 Day Photo Challenge, Sickness, Sunshine and Senior Ex

So you probably have noticed this already, but I just recently realized that I fail at blogging. I thought this would be way easier than it is, but it's no where near as easy as I thought it would be. Much to my surprise it's really not that easy to come up with interesting things to write about. Things people would actually want to spend time reading. I mean, I always have thoughts running through my head throughout the day. Thoughts that I think "oh that would be fun to blog about", but then I never remember them when I get home. Maybe I should start writing them down on my hand or something.... I don't know.

But anyways, I decided to start doing the 30 Day Photo Challenge. A lot of people I know are doing this on facebook, but I'm going to do it right here on my bloggy blog. It will give me something to write about everyday hopefully be interesting for others to read. So I shall start that tomorrow. And I'm excited because a lot of them include pictures, and I love sharing pictures.

One of the main reasons my blogging has been non-existent lately is due to this nasty sickness I have. I mentioned that I got sick while I was in Seattle, that was a week and a half ago and it still hasn't left me yet. Along with a constant runny nose and gross cough, being sick has made me lazy as heck (at least that's what I'm blaming it on). This whole week I've done nothing but eat, read, go on facebook really quick, and then sleep. That's not even an exaggeration. I'm constantly tired and all I want to do is sleep, and I hate that feeling. So I just want this nastiness to go away so I can get out of this slump.

The beautiful sunshine isn't really helping either. You would think that having a week of non-stop sun and warmth would make a person (especially me) at least a little happier, but right now that's not the case. This weather is faking me out because it feels like "end of the school year" weather. The time of year when school is coming to an end and a lack of interest starts to really kick in. But it's not the end of the school year. In fact, it's only January 27th which means I still have four months left. So really, school is no where near ending which means there's no room for slacking quite yet. And on the same note, today seemed like a Friday, but really it's Thursday which means I still have one more day of school. I'm tired of being faked out. It hurts my head.

Lastly, today I turned in the final draft of my senior exhibition paper. A 20 page paper that I've been working on since school started in August. It was a huge relief and I can't wait to just be 100% done with it.

Well, I'm going to go continue reading The Hunger Games now. I haven't been able to put it down since I got it, which makes me happy because I haven't read a book in a very long time and I'm glad I picked this one, because it's REALLY good.

Before I go for reals I will leave you with a verse that my dear friend Katie Helms just shared with me:

"So be truly glad.
There is wonderful joy ahead,
even though you have to endure many trials for a little while.
These trials will show that your faith is genuine.
It is being tested as fire tests and
purifies gold."

~1 Peter 1:6-7~
That's all for today.

~peace and love~
