November 29, 2014- Summer

What’s your favorite thing about summer?

My favorite thing about summer is summer nights. I'm not a person who partially fond of the heat, so summer nights are perfect. It's not too yet, but still warm enough to be able to stay outside all night. I love having bonfires, sitting on the beach, and having bbq's on a summer night. There is just so much life and fun to be had on a summer night. It is especially great because I live in California.

November 28, 2014- Summer Memory

What is your favourite summer memory? How old were you? Describe it.

Growing up we were lucky enough to have a pool. even though a few other neighborhood kids had pools, our house always seemed to be the house all the kids went to. One Summer my Dad had built deck platforms on either side of our above ground pool. I can't remember exactly when this was, but I know I was still in elementary school. I remember myself and all my neighborhood friends would have contests using these platforms. We would dive off, jump off, toss balls back and forth, put on performances, and do cannonballs. We were in that pool for hours every day, all summer long. Eventually we had to take them down due to safety reasons and room. I'm glad we had them for as long as we did because I still remember it.

November 27, 2014- Summer Fun

Add in a photo today of a fun moment that took place during spring or summer. Write a little blurb beneath detailing when it was, who is in it, and where you were.

This photo is from this past summer. A large group of us went to a winery to celebrate a birthday. It was the first time I went to a winery with friends, and I had always wanted to do that. Even though I'm not a big drinker, it was still so nice. The atmosphere was great, the weather was great, and the company was great. This photo is myself and the 3 girls I'm closest with in the group. We have been friends for the last 5 years or so.  Life has made it a little difficult to get together the same way we use to, but we always make sure to be together for the important stuff.

November 26, 2014- 3 Things This Week

What are three things you’re going to enjoy this week?

This week is Thanksgiving so I will definitely be enjoying family time, yummy food, and not being in retail for this black friday.

November 19, 2014- Change of Pace

This next week I'm going to try things a little differently. The prompts for the next week are all related to drawing. Things like draw my favorite animal, draw my job, draw my best friend, etc. I understand that the prompt website I chose are to go along with physical journals. For me, mine is electronic. It's my computer. Since I don't use drawing tools on my computer I don't have the best tools to draw next week. I foresee myself just getting very frustrated.

Even though I still have another 5 months or so before this year and this journal writing is over, I have already been thinking what I will do next, and it's not continuing this. I will still be writing, but it will be in a different way and on a different platform. So I think for the next week I'm going to try that. See if it will work for me. That way, if it doesn't I still have 5 months to figure something else out. So see you in a week!!

November 18, 2014- Enjoying Small Things

What are you enjoying today? Name three small things that you don’t usually recognize.

One thing I noticed today that I really enjoyed is how often my co-workers and I say thank you to each other. For the most part, everyone is very polite and shows each other a lot of respect. I also enjoyed that when ever Tyson walks with passion, like he is on a mission or something, his ears bounce up and down. Finally I noticed that I really enjoyed my soda at lunch time. It was the only thing that would quench my thirst. It's going to be hard when I give up soda in the new year.
