A Lettered List

  Creative title, no?  See, I was going to number this post and title it "Ten Things", but then I realized that my last post was numbered.  That would be two posts in a row with the same look.  We can't have that... So this post is going to be lettered.  Just to mix things up. 

The new title of this entry is now officially "A Lettered List".

(I know.  The creativity. It's mind-blowing ..)



A.  I am currently dying (yes. DYING) for spring to spring already.  Germany has not experienced even one 'real' snow this winter.  There has only a been light dusting here and there that either melts quickly or is completely trampled by siblings attempting to sled or build a snowman.  Oh that snowman ... he was a jolly, fat, short type, whose nose was about the size of his head.  I do believe that carrot is still out in the backyard, but unforunately ... Frosty the Fat is no more.

Anywho! Back to what I was typing earlier.. I am tired of the cold wetness and would love for some warmer, sunny, not-as-wet-ness to come along.  That would make this girl very happy.

B.  While I was browsing through an old SD card, I came across a few (okay, about 147) pictures that Bear took last winter.  He should be going professional any day now.  Here is a sneak-peek of the amazing photography skills that my family is just full of (prepare to be amazed):

I know!!  Astonishing!  Once you've recovered your socks, we can move on...

C. As of this moment, I am redesigning my bedroom.  Well ... it's more like 'designing my room' since there really wasn't a design in the first place.  My sister and I painted a couple of our walls yellow, and believe me, that was a huge improvement.  But, so far we haven't done any framing of pictures, painting of colorful scenes, or anything to really decorate our walls. 

This is, of course, excluding all the cards, pictures, rocket ships and such that I have hanging up under the loft...
Other than that our walls are completely bare.. But! I have come up with a near genius solution that I will post pictures of as soon as it's finished...

(CLIFF HANGER! Hanging from a cliff! And that's why he's called Cliff Hanger!) 

D. Ahem. If you can't already tell, I am writing this long after I should have gone to bed..

E. This song. On repeat and repeat and repeat. That is all I have to say.

G. Oh...and this one.. Thanks to a friend ;) My iTunes money is becoming non-existent..

H.  I have multiple projects going on at the moment ... there's my room for one, a couple paintings.. just for the heck of it, and I'm working on capes. Since my Venture Crew is awesome, we decided that we should add capes to our awesomeness ... simply because we can.

One down ... only four more to go.

I. Finals week was just last week and I am soveryveryvery happy that they're over and I'm back to 'normal' homework for now.  This week 'normal' homework consists of reading the Apocrypha, chemistry (bleh), trig., writing a hymn for a Knowing God assignment (which I'm kindof excited about) and creative writing in composition!  Woohoo!

J.  And there we go! (almost) Ten things .... LETTERED, 'cause I'm full of creative genius! :P

Tips for Successful Procrastination

1. Facebook.
2. Tell yourself to write this blog post on Wednesday.  Don't get around to it till Saturday.
3. Type out the first three points, save in drafts, and resolve to finish it later .... someday.
4. Think of all the studying that you should be doing for finals.  All of a sudden writing a blog post doesn't seem like a bad idea.
5. Sit staring at the computer trying to think up another point, then remember that you have Facebook open in another tab.  .....
6. Come back in about an hour.
7. Remember some hilarious photo that you saw and wonder if you can incorporate it into a blog post. Try to find photo.
8. Spend another hour laughing at funny cat pictures.
9. Remember breakfast.  Exit cave to find food of some sort.
10. Come back.  Write tenth point.  Throw milestone party.  Check Facebook.

This is Belle's "Get back to work, you have finals coming up!" face.

Well. Here I am again.  Back to blogging.  For the umpteenth time.  We'll see if this works... ;)
