My Perfect Day…

One of the best things in life is to spend a day doing things that make you happy. My perfect day would consist of the following. It would be a sunny day in October with a slight breeze to feel like fall weather. I would start my day by waking up and taking my dogs on a long walk around my neighborhood. After a nice, long walk, I would drive to my favorite yoga studio and spend an hour doing yoga. Yoga helps my mind rewind and relax for the rest of the day. After yoga, I would head to my favorite smoothie place to get a large, healthy smoothie. After finishing my smoothie, I would drive around town for a little to look at the fall leaves and enjoy the sunshine outside. Since the weather is so nice outside, I would spend time outside on my back patio with my dogs. I would play country music and lay down in the sunshine with my dogs. After relaxing, I would take a nice, long shower. I would do a face mask afterwards and make myself a nice lunch. Later in the night, I would love to spend time with friends and go to a concert. Listening to live music is one of my favorite things to do. If I could choose an artist to see in concert, it would be Luke Combs. His music makes me happy. Country music in general makes me feel good. Later at night, I would make s’mores with my friends and enjoy the fall night. This would be my perfect day.

My Roomie!

Going into college, I didn’t really think that I would make a lot of friends. I figured I would continue to hangout with the same people from my high school. This changed dramatically. When I was looking for roommates, I didn’t want to room with someone that I already knew. It took me awhile to find someone who shared the same interests and similar personality as me. I finally found and messaged a girl that had everything I was looking for in a roommate. My roommates name is Anna. She is from the same area I am from. We instantly connected with each other. Rooming with Anna has been great so far. We have a great, honest friendship. Even though we don’t spend time with each other 24/7, we still spend a big chunk of time with each other. Anna and I share a lot of the same interests. Some of our favorite things we like to do together are working out, showing videos/pictures of our dogs, shopping, and doing skin care routines. By spending time together, and doing the things we love helps our friendship grow and stay positive. Through Anna, I have met numerous people at school. It is nice to have Anna as my roommate and friend because I know she will always be there for me. She always makes sure I am included and feel part of things. She has shown me to step out of my comfort zone and be myself. I am so grateful and blessed to be able to room with someone that shares laughs and makes memories with. Even though Anna and I are not rooming with each other next year, our friendship will remain close and we will always be friends no matter what. I have made a lifelong friend who will always and continue to make me happy.

My Motivational Words …

Since it is a new year, I made a challenge for myself. I chose words to live by for the 2020 season. The words that I chose to live by are, “strive for progress, not perfection.” I tend to be a perfectionist, so my challenge for this year is to not be hyper focused on specific things. I believe when I try to make everything perfect, I forget about that nothing needs to be perfect. It is more of the fact that I need to focus on what really matters. If I focus on perfection, then I won’t be able to progress in what I am doing. For example, I have always loved and been motivated to be a good student. Sometimes I focus on how my paper looks or how organized my notes are. This takes away my progress of actually learning the material properly and in my own way. Not everything needs to be perfect in life. All that matters is that we are happy in what we do. By being happy, we are progressing in becoming a healthier and happier person. When I am doing school work, working out, hanging out with friends and family, or organizing my room, I need to remember that perfection is not the goal. The goal to success is if you are progressing with yourself. If I live by these words, I believe my 2020 season will be successful. I think I will grow as a person and be happier with my performance in the things I do.

My Dream Job

One of my favorite things to do in my free time is to listen to music and to make playlists. Music brings me into my life. I enjoy listening to all genres of music, especially country. I enjoy listening to the lyrics in songs, since all the songs have a story behind them. If I was looking for an ideal job, I would love for it to be involved with music. My dream job has always been to put music into movies. Whenever I watch movies, I always pay close attention to what type of music they use for that specific scene. I tend to try and see what other songs would be ideal for that specific scene. Being able to have control of what kind of music to use in a movie would be amazing. Having that control and opportunity would be a great experience. If I had this job, I would love to be involved with putting music into romantic movies. I tend to listen to a lot of country and alternative music. Both of these genres have numerous songs that could work perfectly for a love story. I believe having music in the background of movies ties the movie together, making it more special and dramatic. Finding that one specific song for that scene can make the viewers more intrigued with what’s going on during the film. Being involved with directors, actors and actresses could help with the process of choosing music for the film. Getting to know everyone on set can help with finding out more about that person. If you know someone well enough, you can choose a song to match their personality and character perfectly. It would be my dream to be involved with music in the future. It is one of my passions and I believe I would succeed with this job.

Am I a Writer ?

When trying to define a writer, people often describe them as someone who writes a particular text. I believe writers can be described in numerous ways. Writers can write stories, poems, articles, books, and other forms of text. All writers are different and unique in their own way. I would say I would identify as a writer. For me, writing is pleasant and it allows me to place all my thoughts and creativity in words. I enjoy reading quotes each day, and then responding to them. When responding to the quote, I either explain what that specific quote means to me, or I use the quote to write about something positive I can do for myself for that week. Something I struggle with when writing is holding myself back with what I want to say. Sometimes I think too much when I am writing. I worry that it sounds too basic or that I am using too much personal thought. One of my strengths when writing is my creativity. When I write, I tend to let my creativity flow throughout my words I am placing on paper. If I could make one goal for myself this semester, it would be to ask for help with my writing skills. I hope to create a bond with my teacher and other resources so I can improve and enjoy my writing even more. For my blogs, I want to improve by making each post more and more creative and special.By improving my writing and allowing me to be myself, I believe I can become a better writer. I want my writing to allow me to identify who I am.
