Sunday Post #3


  • Well. Finals week. I survived, just barely. And it ain't even over yet. I have two more tests tomorrow (one of which is chemistry and I might actually die). However, I came home this weekend so I could watch my high school choir's Feast of Carols, which is this really beautiful Christmas dinner/concert they put on every year. I used to be in it, and now it's so fun watching it as an alum. 
  • I didn't get done nearly as much reading as I would have liked, but I should have expected as much. I just can't wait until my tests are over tomorrow, because then it is officially winter break and I have about a month off from school--so, plenty of time to read and blog! 
  • I'm really excited because I got an A on my poetry portfolio, My professor said it was an excellent portfolio and it made me really happy, because poetry is not even my genre! Now I just have to wait for my grades on my other finals. Ahhhh.

 South of Sunshine by Dana Elmendorf - Thank you Albert Whitman!
Published: April 1, 2016 by Albert Whitman 

 I just want to tell everyone that I know my blog has been pretty routine for the past few weeks. Every week has pretty much had the same schedule. Well, I have a ton of creative and fun things planned for this blog, but I wanted to hold off a little while until my blog has more viewers and whatnot. Please don't get me wrong, I'm so thankful for the viewers and followers and people who comment now--y'all make me so unbelievably happy! I just think it will be better for the blog to get some more traffic before I start posting certain things. It will allow for more discussion and attention to ideas that I'm really proud of.

What has your week in books and blogging looked like?

  4. I will be coming back to see your review of Sever. I really liked the Chemical Garden books, and I have read and liked Lauren's first two Internment Chronical books, too. I also love to read everyone's TTT posts. Congratulations on scoring an A! Have a wonderful week.

  5. Having a routine is not a bad thing. I know a lot of bloggers that so and I think that is awesome (i am not organized at all, but i try). It takes time to built up a readership, so don't loose heart. I am sure your blog will blossom into something you really love (and are proud of numbers-wise) soon enough.

  6. The Feast of Carols sounds like a wonderful event. Glad you were able to attend and wish you luck on the rest of your finals! I still don't have a fully set routine for blogging. I wing it a lot. LOL

Thank you so much for taking the time to read what I have to say and give your opinion on it. It really means a lot to me. And of course, I will do my best to return the favor. However, as easily distracted and scatter-brained as I am, please don't be offended if I forget to comment on your blog.
