Personal Updates

There is one fact about me that I simply must share at this point. I am not good at routine. It does not come easy to me whatsoever. I get things done when they need to get done, but as I told a friend last night, I typically end up giving up sleep in order to get things done. I started my summer job about a week ago. I'm also doing additional work-ish things outside of work. I have also taken on more responsibility by picking my sister up and dropping her off more often. I'm not trying to make excuses, but I feel the need to tell you all these things to illustrate the fact that I am finding it hard to balance everything. I am certainly trying my hardest, but it's just not so easy to me.

As for this blog, it has taken a downfall. I can tell, and I want to change that. I want people to be interested in what I have to say and share, so I know that I need to put more effort into this. Because I love it. I find inspiration everywhere, and I love having this as an outlet for all of my opinions that may pop up. So I need to focus on sharing. I also planned it out so I can make two posts a week (the three a week I tried to do was never to work out). I'm aiming for every Wednesday and Friday. I also still plan to do my Pinterest posts, because I am still loving the challenge of searching for things to do. 

So. I am going to work at this. For real. I have gained some control (for lack of a better word) for some of the aspects of my personal life and I feel so good about it. I'm hoping to gain that same feeling with complete focus on this. Wish me luck!

 Is fall not the best reading season? I’m so glad I’ve had a few opportunities to sit on the front porch, wrapped in a fuzzy blanket with a hot drink and my book. Right now, it’s raining outside and all I want to do is cozy up and get back to my book. I’ve read some great non-fiction in the past six weeks. I’m learning so much about how people relate to the world around them. That is so important to me. Check them out! The Reason I Jump: The Inner Voice of a Thirteen-Year-Old Boy with Autism – Naoki Higashida – 4 Stars         This is a very short book that I think everyone should read – particularly those who work with children. Although knowledge has come a long way, there is still so much more to be learned about autism. This book is a series of question that Naoki Higashida answers from his point of view. Interspersed is also a handful of short stories from Higashida’s point of view.         It’s an i...

Copycat the Cool Way #2

I admit that I am a little late with this post. Things have been insane school-wise so I haven’t been keeping up to date with all my posts. Or anything for that matter. Plus, I got a new phone and I had to figure out how to get all the pictures from my old phone on to my laptop. Ugh. The following blurb is an imitation of my brain: duibqieufbijenwcijaaiojcfpo wijojndwqioNQIOENFONIONICQNINQ/ what? Descriptive right? Bear with me, I’m pre-writing a couple posts while I’m focused on blogging. I got you covered. Monday- Probably my favourite pants ever. They’re super comfy, but it can be tough to style them. I took the inspiration from a picture from a magazine (I think it might have been Glamour). It was also a spring day in Canada (did not last long), so I wanted to keep it cool temperature-wise. I have a blue cardigan that I typically wear instead of the scarf. Also, rainboots. Buy rainboots. They are the best for the icky, slushy, melty weather that is just around the corn...
