Oh the joys of never really knowing  what to write for blog posts. But on a separate note I finished reading "Insurgent" on Monday morning. I enjoyed it as much as the first book, now I just have to wait until the third book comes in at the library so that I can read it.

Part of what I am doing for Lent, besides giving up sweets and such, I have started reading the Bible. I have read parts of the Bible on and off but I want to read more of it so I decided to start reading it during Lent. Though I haven't remembered to read it every day I am making my way through it slowly.

On Pinterest I found a recipe for peach lemonade and it sounds delicious! Now I want it to be summer so that I can find some fresh peaches to try the recipe. I am hoping that I can try it this summer.

If you haven't heard of it yet Camp NaNoWriMo is a spring/summer version of the NaNoWriMo that is in November and it is next month. Ever since Camp NaNo started back in 2012 -ish I have done it thought I haven't ever finished a book during that time. I want to do it again this year using the story that I started working back in January, but I shall see what I can get done especially with having school and homework to do.

But most people don't realize that modesty isn't just about what you wear; it is also about how you act around others and toward yourself.  Photo by Amanda Canas on Unsplash I am talking about this because I read an article on my Facebook feed the other day about a father who posted a picture with his two daughters in their homecoming dresses. And it was talking about his response to the people commenting on the style of the dresses. I don't remember the article's name, but I do know that it mentioned "girls to dress, so they don't distract boys," as well as saying that they are "aski...

--- 1 --- The other day I was feeling a bit bored so I made a couple covers for the story that I started working on. --- 2 --- A couple of weeks ago I was looking up pictures of the minons from "Despicable Me", don't remember why, but while I was scrolling down the page I came across this minion picture: --- 3 --- I found this on Pinterest a while back... --- 4 --- On Sunday we had to shovel snow off the driveway. It was really cold out and it made my stomach kind of hurt a little bit afterwards. The only bright side, besides being able to come inside and warm up, was getting hot chocolate. --- 5 --- Since I couldn't think of anything else to write for this one I decided to share the first couple sentences of what I have written so far of my story let me know how you like it :) Standing under the only low-lit street lamp Xiomara looked both ways at the quiet street lit only by the light of the street lamps.
