My Life Lately

Hello,

So wow, it's kind of been forever since I last posted, checked emails, and browsed others blogs. I am so incredibly sorry about that. Life has been crazy, but I won't go into the typical blogger excuses right now. I'm back though, and creating a schedule for myself so I can hopefully stay on track with my posting. Today, I just wanted to share what I've been up to lately. 

Drinking// I've been obsessed with tea lately, even more so then normally. I usually would have a cup of peppermint tea every night while reading some good book, but not it's like 2-3 cups a day. English breakfast, black spice, earl grey, and green tea are my current favorites. I'm not really a fan of fruity teas, but pomegranate and hibiscus, I've discovered, are actually pretty good. Overall, Tea (and of course, cute tea cups to sip it with) has been a favorite of mine lately. 

Reading// In English, we've been studying epic poetry, so I decided to pick up a book from the library and read it for myself. I chose the Iliad because I've always been fascinated by Greek Mythology, plus it was a book I was assigned to research, so why not read it too? I love it! I never knew epic poetry could be this good. Whenever I begin to read it, I just can't get myself to put it down. If you're into poetry, or are just looking for something completely new to read, I highly suggest this. 

Writing// As I said before, in English we're studying poetry, so it's obvious to say, then, that I've been writing a lot of it. I've been writing for year now, it's just something I've always greatly enjoyed, but I didn't write a ton of poetry, just time to time when I was feel extra artsy hehe. It's been so much fun though, to experiment with poetry, I've already written a few that I really love. Poetry is definitely something I will be writing more of in the future.  

Planning// To-Do lists are seriously the bomb! It helps keep me organized and motivated throughout the day, especially if I use fun, bright colors. Plus, every time you mark something off, you have this amazing wave of self accomplishment go through your body and just makes you want do to more and more so you can check off everything. Yes, strange, I know, but great all the same! I'm also working on a blog schedule, so don't fear! I won't be taking another six week vacation anytime soon.

Have a beautiful day,

Elizabeth
