Small update & book talk
posted on Thursday, April 21, 2011 @ 1:16 PM
I haven't updated this site in almost a month. I haven't been feeling well both physically and mentally and grappling with depression left me exhausted and antisocial. I'm finally, slowly, resurfacing and getting back to normal. I updated the reading list - although I haven't read very much lately. I did finish Cutting For Stone and read a guilty pleasure book in House Rules by Jodi Picoult. I also received an early copy of The Long Journey Home by Margaret Robison (Augusten Burroughs mother) from Librarything, which was a pretty exciting day since it's an unedited proof and not available in stores yet. Granted, it's coming out May 1st, but I still feel excited about having something that's not available to the general public.

Anyway, I just wanted to put something up on here so the site didn't feel completely abandoned. I will write more later when I have something GOOD to say.

profile.
This is the section of my profile that lets you know the run down of who I am, or rather, who I think I am, or who I want you to think I am. I'm never any good at these because I change on a daily basis. Usually though, I am an introvert. I live my life in words, finding myself in lyrics, books, poetry, and my own writing. I'm kind of a loner, and usually like to be left to my own thoughts. I'm a survivor, and I'm trying to not live so much in the past, but in the present and the future. In the Fall I will be starting school full time to major in paralegal studies. It took me a long time to figure out what I wanted to do with my life, and I think I've finally got it. I like to learn things. I love the study of psychology, sociology, sciences, history... everything but math. I'm an avid reader and try to read at least two books a month, but usually it's more like four or five. This blog is to try to find beauty and hope in the everyday mundane parts of life. To try to focus on the positive, instead of getting lost in my own head. To try to stay connected, make new friends, and chronicle this part of my life. It's a much needed resurrection after a very long hiatus from journaling, as I used to write every single day in high school, and have boxes and boxes of journals filled with my thoughts and ideas. I hope to continue that trend now that I have this site.
