DAY 30 - Analysis

As of this blog, I have posted a blog once a day consecutively for 30 days. I consider this quite the accomplishment because going into this I really didn't think I was going to make it, and that I would run out of things to say within the first week. However, I worked through the bumps along the way and have come up with a lot of blog posts I'm rather proud of. I feel like this was definitely a good experiment. I pushed myself to be consistent with my posts and I came out successful.

So overall, I think this month went well. I got a lot done, and there’s so much to come in July. I’m really looking forward to moving into our “new” house. Everything except our beds will be moved Saturday. My room is so empty, there’s a duffel bag of clothes I will be living out for the next couple of days, my laptop case, a water bottle, and my purse. There are clothes in my closet, but those will be taken tomorrow. Other than that I have nothing. My bathroom is still intact, but not for long.

Saturday I’m going to the beach with some friends. I’m really excited because the beach has been calling my name since the weather started getting hotter. I cannot wait to get into the ocean and hang out with a group of friends at the beach.

I still need to finish Catching Fire so I can read Mockingjay and give the books back to Krista. I’m really enjoying them. I wish I had a day to dedicate to reading, but with the move going down, I really cannot.

And then VidCon is at the end of the month, and I can hardly contain my excitement. It’s going to be great.

At this point in time, I do not know when I’ll be able to post another blog because I’m not sure when Wi-Fi will be set up in the “new” house. However, I will keep you posted. :]

Day 21 - yay friends!

I started out today thinking I was going to paint all day, take a quick swim, and possibly go home and curl up with Catching Fire. [That's right I have the second book now. But I know once I start reading it, I will be upset when people will try and take it away from me. So it still lies unread on my desk]. However, my previous plans got warped and I actually ended up spending the day with three of my friends. Not all at once, but amazing regardless.

When Madre and I went over to our new house this morning I decided to call a few of my friends and ask if they wanted to come over to my house, help paint, and then go swimming. Right away I was only able to get Karalee to come for a few hours. So while she was there we got the family room painted? [There's a question mark because I always get the family room and the living room mixed up, so we very well could have painted the living room].

After Karalee left, I drove over and got my friend Manuel. We had fun painting half of the living room [family room?] and then had lunch. Daddie brought us pizza. And then around 2 p.m. we picked up my brother from band camp. When we came back we decided it was time to go swimming because we felt like we had worked hard enough for the day. [Although, we didn't finish. >.<] And Lauren came and went swimming with us after she got out of class.

We swam for about 3 hours, it was glorious. It was really relaxing and fun to just chill with some friends for awhile. It had been quite awhile since I had seen any of them. Once we finished swimming, Lauren and I went new bathing suit hunting and Manuel tagged along. He paid attention to his phone most of the time, which is understandable and we really didn't find anything anyway.

We had dinner at Red Robin [YUM! haha]. Apparently they have patty melts and sweet potato fries now. Guess what I got! If you answered what I previously just said plus a Freckled Lemonade, you would be right. Good job! haha. We talked about a lot of things and just enjoyed each other company and the food. haha.

It was great to be able to hangout with friends after it being so long. There was lots to catch up on and I kind of want it to be next week already! BEACH! YAY! Well, AND FRIENDS! YAY! :D
