Who knew?

Who knew I’d be so busy at home?

I’ve barely been on my computer which is such a drastic change for me.  I’m still trying to get settled in to living at home again.

 

Fear not.  In my absence I have been getting a taste for the world.  And whenever that happens the ideas start popping out of the old noggin.  I’m already waist deep in story ideas.

On a side note, I’m going skydiving on June 30th.  One of the biggest pieces of advice I got from my professors were to go out and have experiences, because that is the only way you can write.  I can’t wait for this.

Just two years ago I would cry if I had to climb up a ladder because of the height.  Last summer, nipped my fear of heights in the butt by ziplining. And in January I went indoor skydiving.  But next month it’s the REAL deal.  And I cannot wait to talk about it and its impact on my life.

Started a new blog!

I always get really excited when I find little post-it notes or lists that have been lost.  I think it’s an interesting sneak peak into a strangers life.  I also like to leave little inspirational post-its in random places, like bathrooms and in between library books.

The site can be found here:

I’m also working on creating a literary blog, where writers can submit literary work, preferably with a journalistic twist.  This is inspired by my Literature of Journalism professor.

Out of the Darkness!

The fantastic group of individuals I had the opportunity to work with today (including myself). There's only 5 of us in the club but we were so grateful for other people to put on a volunteer shirt and help out!

Today was the Bring Suicide Out of the Darkness Campus Walk!  This is a picture of all the volunteers. Five of us are in the club.  I’m crouching on the bottom right 🙂

 

A picture of the wonderful group of walkers. We raised $2500 today alone!Group shot!  All the walkers and volunteers who helped raise $2500 today alone!  So humbled by everyone!

Walkers embraced each other as a speaker opened up about her brother's suicide.
