Giving It A Try...And Homework

-

The other day I was feeling a bit board, so I decided to try something new. Since I enjoy knitting and own a cable needle I decided to give cable knitting a try.

On the left is my feeble attempt and trying cable knitting. I apologize for it being a little hard to see. But I can say that it doesn't really look like a cable at all. It probably would have turned out better if I had been listening to the instruction video that I was watching instead. As of last (Friday) night I think I might have figured out what I was doing wrong with the cable part of the project. Whatever I end up doing with this I am going to keep practicing cable knitting so that I can get better and start adding it to future knitting projects.

For the Psychology class I am currently taking, we have to do reading reflections for the different chapters that we have read and each section of chapters has a different reflection to go with them. The first three chapters the reading reflection we had to do was flash cards, the reflection for the next group of chapters was multiple choice questions. For the last three chapters we are doing the reading reflections is to find five pieces of art for each chapter and describe how they fit with the chapters or to create three pieces of your own art work and fit them to the chapters.

Originally I was going to go with the first option, but once I started working on my cable knitting project I changed my mind and am now going with the second option. While I don't have a picture of it yet I already created the second piece of art for the second chapter that we have to do. Now I just have to do one last piece of art work and then write up a paragraph for each of the pieces describing how they fit with the assigned chapters.

The Other Side of Modesty

When we hear the word modesty, the first thing that comes to mind is clothing that covers everything or the majority of your body. Dressing modestly is something I have grown up with and have been around my entire life. And it can be considered a "hot topic" regarding what girls and women wear. Especially when it comes to places like schools and the workplace. 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. Sighing to herself...
