JAMinAugust2.0

yeah, i know, i already did an august JAM. but since it's techinically supposed to be done on the 29th of each month (that seems to make more sense now that i think about it) i decided i would stop being a rulebreaker and go ahead and wait till the end of the month since i am now aware of the specific date. :D so here we go..

needing... more sleep. i've been getting up way earlier since school's started and my sleeping habits haven't quite adjusted yet.

reading... wrecked by e.r. frank (because i want to) and the handmaid's tale by margaret atwood (for my english class. it's...interesting. to say the least.)

enjoying... my graphic design, history, and sociology classes.

non-enjoying... taking my friend to and from school everyday (sometimes) and getting up early and having homework every night in the same subjects (all the time).

drinking... a route 44 cherry coke from sonic at happy hour. my new love.

listening... to my playlist of favorite beatles songs. the current song is: back in the USSR. (it makes me think of a russian version of the beach boys :D)

wondering... how i could switch up my routine a little; i'm already bored and i've only been in school for two weeks. any suggestions? what do you do when you need some variety in your life?

recommending - if you wanna play (i highly recommend it; it's actually a lot of fun), check out the link over in the sidebar. there's a box with a little picture that will take you straight to the directions, or in the i love reading... section you can just scoot on down to August Street.

have a fabulous weekend!

i. love. life.

alright. this just may end up being a totally random post... i don't know. i just had some thoughts that i wanted to share with you all.

first off, i saw the time traveler's wife with one of my best friends last week. it was good, but also sad. it sorta ended on a good note though. i would definitely recommend it.

next, i'm thinking of changing the name of my blog. i realize that this would be having to change the url and therefore creating a whole new blog, but i'm really feeling that a new name is necessary. sexyfred was just kinda a placeholder until i could think of some better names. which i'm working on. i'm open to suggestions if you think of a name that suits this blog ;D

i was rearranging the books on my bookshelves when i found a little binder that i used to write stories in when i was in elementary school, and i decided that i would use it to jot down my thoughts this year, because i know i'm in for a lot of growth and change. i'm not sure exactly what will go down, but i know that i'm absolutely ready for everything life throws at me. and even though i know it'll sometimes be trying, i am so excited for all the new experiences i'll have this year.

so in this notebook, i started writing in the front and when i was done, i doodled in the back of it. i had forgotten how good it felt to just draw. and to just write. i need to use pencils more often.

OH! and school started on tuesday. wednesday was my first day of graphic design. i have missed it. i've been deprived of photoshop and designing all summer. i'm going to like this class even better, i think. there are only five of us, whereas last year i'd say there were around twenty. i've started my first project, which i'll explain more when it's done and posted, but it starts with a photo of myself. the only other girl in my class took this while i was playing with my bracelet:

i really like it :D

oh, and i still haven't solved that bloglovin issue from the post below, so if you know how to help me, i would be eternally grateful.

that's all i have for you right now, but stay tuned! there's more to come.

currently listening to: random playlists. but my current favorite song (which i listen to in the car almost all the time when i'm by myself) is we walk by the ting tings. it's super catchy. ;D
