Today is one of those days. One of those days when I stressed myself out over things that I can't really control. One of those days that I couldn't decide if I wanted to curl up in a little ball or to go for a long long walk until I got lost. One of those days that I just hoped something would happen to snap me out of my mood. And then I got a "thank you for doing what you do" note from one of my students. It was exactly what I needed.

One thing that I've really been wishing that I could do is buy my own furniture and paint my walls. Right now I live in an apartment that came furnished, leaving me with mismatched furniture. My dream apartment? Couches that you sink into, that you can stretch out on...not the tiny love seats that I have now. Big windows so the light comes in all the time. Flowers.

A new beginning

I'm not much of a writer but there's no better time to start than the present, right?

I'm taking the opportunity to explore the world of blogging (again). My first blog was pretty much a failure, with only one post. I guess life just took over and I didn't have the time to put into it and I didn't really have an idea of what I wanted to write about. I sat for hours just thinking about a topic. I decided this time that I don't want a topic. I don't expect or really mind if people read. This is mostly just a place for me to write whatever happens to be going on or whatever I happen to be thinking about.

Lately I've been reading some amazing blogs, full of life, romance, happiness and love. They're inspiring and they're why I've started writing. I've been going back and forth with the idea for a while. I don't know what made me finally start. Maybe it is that I want to be able to look back at everything, as silly as some it may end up being. Maybe it is that I want to (someday) inspire others. Maybe it is that I'm just plain bored.

Whatever it is, I'm here.
