Yes, I am totally behind. Blogging as seemed to be a bit of a chore lately. Maybe because it is December, and even though my birthday is this Friday... I still don't feel December! It is definitely one of my least favorite months. I begin to feel my seasonal depression, and it makes me not want to do anything. Bleh. I haven't yet got my hubs anything for Christmas... Though, I have no idea what I would get him, if I got him anything! I know of some stuff that he *needs* but I don't really know of anything that he *wants*...
So lately it's been really odd, but I have been getting tired at like 7p! Man o' man, this has got to change! haha It's my birthday this Friday and I can't be the first party pooper!!
And I skipped a couple of reverb10 prompts... I have kind of been feeling like they are getting a wee bit repetitive! So instead of boring myself. I skipped 'em. Kinda sad about that, but, you know... it just needs to be done!
Actually... I kind of feel this way about a lot of things going on in my life right now. I really need to get back on it, back to my up beat positive self, and get back into life. You know, get things done, try new things...
I also really just need to learn my camera better. I need to learn how it can make money for me. I need to learn how to start up my own photog business. I think it would be wonderful. If i could do something with my life that is artistic?! Holy crapola! Right? It would be amazing... Now just to get the motivation to ACTUALLY do something to better my photography skills... *makes face*

December 20 – Beyond Avoidance. What should you have done this year but didn’t because you were too scared, worried, unsure, busy or otherwise deterred from doing? (Bonus: Will you do it?) (Author: Jake Nickell)
I never got back into crafting like I have been wanting to... I don't know why, but the motivation just isn't there. I can draw well, paint kind of, paper craft like a mo-fo... I have all these talents... And haven't really used them at all this year. I imagine my skill strength in this area probably went down, a ton! I also really just need to learn my camera better. I need to learn how it can make money for me. I need to learn how to start up my own photog business. I think it would be wonderful. If i could do something with my life that is artistic?! Holy crapola! Right? It would be amazing... Now just to get the motivation to ACTUALLY do something to better my photography skills... *makes face*
December 21 – Future Self. Imagine yourself five years from now. What advice would you give your current self for the year ahead? (Bonus: Write a note to yourself 10 years ago. What would you tell your younger self?) (Author: Jenny Blake)
For some reason, I really don't like this question. Myself 5 years from now... I have no idea, being a military wife, it just means that nothing is planned out. I could be living in some state back in the US, I could be living out of country... I could have a kid, I might not have a kid... There are just too many things to think about for me in the next 5 years. I honestly don't want to think about it. I want to go with the flow, figure things out as I go... You know?
So me ten years ago, I was almost 13... Maybe I would tell myself that High School isn't that important and I should have fun, explore new things, and just keep up with my school work. I would also tell myself not to date the kid I dated in freshman year for that long... Just date him a little and then forget about him! He wasn't worth all the trouble!
I would also tell myself that I am going to meet a couple of great men in my life and even ones from the past. But I am going to favor one of them, and get married at age 22! And it's going to take me to far away lands, and amazing travels. So I need to keep my head up, because things will work out beautifully!
December 22 – Travel How did you travel in 2010? How and/or where would you like to travel next year? (Author: Tara Hunt)
As you all know I am currently living in South Korea with my brand new Husband! :) So that is pretty amazing, I never ever, ever thought I was going to be able to travel out of the continental US!
Next year, I have my sights set high! Husband and I are trying to get stationed in Germany. Ooooh Germany. While in Germany I hope to be able to see things like the Eiffel Tower, Sweden, Finland, Norway... Amsterdam, oh VENICE... Oh yes. All these places... My list is long! :) I know it could be pretty spendy, but... You know... Who knows if we'll ever get stationed overseas again? I think it would definitely be worth it.
I shall leave you with a picture that I took yesterday of the frost everywhere!

that is an amazing photo! i hope you get back to your crafting soon... it is so relaxing for me! how's s. korea treating you?
ReplyDeleteI'm sure if you get stationed in Europe that you'd love it. There are so many awesome places to see. I've seen a lot, yet there are so many other places I know I will miss out on because there's just not time to see it all!
ReplyDeleteI feel ya on the Reverb 10 prompts. I've wanted to skip a few, too (especially the super free spirit ones; I just can't relate), but I've decided I'm gonna do them all. My husband actually borderline hates Reverb 10. I don't blame him.
ReplyDeletePretty shot of the frost! I hope you guys get your wish of being stationed in Germany. So many amazing photo ops for you!
