I've been gone, but lets talk about vocabulary, art, and an update on learning to love myself.

HI....

I've been stuck writing my book and doing schoolwork. Yes, I am writing my own books right now. I just went through a few weeks where life has been beating me up, but I'm going to stand back up. This year is a little rough on me, especially school. I am in AP art, so I don't really do much, but that's a story for another time. 

What I really want to talk about is expanding your vocabulary. There are a lot of things I am going to talk about, but this is one of the main things. The days that I have been working on my book, I find myself learning new words and, surprisingly, feeling like my posture has gotten better. Has anyone ever experienced that? LOL. You feel so into writing that you genuinely start learning new things. It makes me feel so good.

The other thing I wanted to talk about is how much art has helped me through what I am feeling throughout the day. Recently, I burned myself out, so now I don't feel like doing anything related to traditional art and painting, but I find myself also lost in music and fashion. I'm so captivated by how people express themselves through fashion, music, dance, even photography. My issue is that I put that before God. LIKE WHAT, WHY..... but in all seriousness, I love Jesus, and I want to express myself to Him before I express myself through art.

ANOTHER THING

I've learned to love myself before the school year officially started. I am having trouble accepting that sometimes I'm gonna feel like butt, but I have this wonderful boyfriend who helps me through everything. Our anniversary is also coming up as well. I'm going to try my best to do something big for him. With the help of God, I'll be able to.
