Snowball

First of all, I am very sorry it took me sooo long to blog again. I would like to start by telling one of my best friends (Simi) you will do amazing tomorrow at dance! Yippie! She is such an amazing dancer and has been dancing her whole life and will be dancing yet another type of dance tomorrow!

Now about that book list. . . I have not made a full list yet. But, I will share what I have so far. The only trouble or no, not a trouble, but bump is that some of theses books I have no idea what they are about. Opps. That just means I will experiment with some new material-go out of my comfort zone.



So here is my present list. . .

I had a bunch of papers that I thought the blog world would enjoy but the scanner does not seem to be co operating tonight. But I will fix it soon...maybe, not.Haha. Someday.

Today I was thinking about how hard we think things are - we snowball things to be giant impossible projects that could never get done, let alone in 3 days. We need to focus on the bare facts not the fake outer layer of the project. Life goes on, you don't need to have everything done perfectly and flawlessly -add some colour make mistakes, fall, scrape your knee. Why not? Who's watching?

  1. Aww thx BB!!
    And you already know how the audition went! So now I just have to wait until FREAKIN MAY to hear back from them.

    My mum keeps trying to pressure me to read Catcher In The Rye, but I'm not really interested. FFS WOMAN, I DON'T WANT TO READ THE STUPID BOOK!

    Even if I did before, she's squarshed it now.
