Currently Reading #1

Oh hello!

I've decided to try and revive this blog. As a college student, it's hard to find time for hobbies like blogging when you're swamped with work. I've managed to start creating blocks of time in my schedule to read a chapter of a book or two.

Right now, I'm currently reading:

Writing Down The Bones: Freeing the Writer Within by Natalie Goldberg
A Cheater's Guide to NaNoWriMo by Laura Roberts

Yes, one is basically a manual for cheating at NaNoWriMo. No, I didn't cheat this year. As you can see in the graph below, I did reach the word count on most days. I had gone to a sleepover one day and I didn't get to write which is why I don't have the "Updated for 30 Days" badge. I'm hoping that next year, I'll be able to get all the badges.

The other book is one of the more well known "writing manuals" that most people have read. It's been sitting on my shelf for a long time. Now that I've gotten more serious in improving my writing and finally going back to my roots, I wanted to start read it. I'm taking notes and doing the exercises for about ten minutes every other day or so. I'm still a busy college student after all.

That's it for today! Thanks for reading! 

Sunday Reading List (And Update!)

Hey guys!

It's been a long long time since I've updated this blog. I just haven't had the chance to read as much as I want to as I adjusted to school and found myself leaning more towards makeup and fashion. But I've started to make time for reading again after finally cleaning up my style (or at least, figure out exactly what it is) and realized that  I have too many books. So I'm determined to read all of my books and get rid of the ones that I don't really like, don't have a huge impact on my life, or just adds to my messy life. It's breaking my heart, but I need to do it. 

So here is my first Sunday Reading List. Right now it's really short since I am still in school and taking a two advance classes. But I will be making time to read these two books by the end of this month even if I have to force myself to slow down and take a breather. 

I know that Tuesdays With Morrie was really popular a few years back and I found The Five People You Meet In Heaven at one of my local thrift shops and decided to give it a try. I had gotten Beautiful Zurt last year as an advance reader and just now have the time to read through it. I had read at least half and I really like it! Especially since it's also based on one of the first multi-user adventure games ever created! 

I'm also creating a few blog post series and might start updating you guys about one of my New Year's Eve goals. I had decided to write a poem and a page of fiction a day besides my usual journaling. What do you guys think about that?

That's it for today! Thanks for reading!
