Hey guys! I know I sound like a broken record, but I can't believe February is more than halfway over. I'm excited for the next few days to fly by though because I will soon be in LA on a mission/learning trip with my church, and I know it's going to be amazing. I also just need to be on a plane again because I am having traveling withdrawals!
In the meantime, here's a look at what my month has looked like so far. It's been a pretty good one. :)
Following...
Susan Cain on Facebook and Twitter. I first heard of Susan Cain after watching her very popular TED talk about introversion. I related to it so much, and am planning to read her book Quiet in the near future. In the meantime, I've been following her page on Twitter and Facebook where she shares awesome articles and resources for introverts. I love being an introvert, but it doesn't come without its challenges in today's world. So extra resources are always greatly appreciated.
Drinking...
Not talking about that kind of drinking (sorry if you're disappointed ;). I am very particular about what i drink at Starbucks because my tolerance to caffeine is practically nonexistent. Did you know they only have like one drink that has no caffeine in it?! Other than the decafs of course, but you can only order so many of those before baristas start judging you. I'm pretty sure their delicious strawberry açaí refresher has a bit of caffeine but it's so darn good that I try to pretend it doesn't. Besides, I ordered this on Valentine's Day, and who can say no to a pink-colored drink on the day of love?
Listening to...
"Where You Are" by Hillsong Young & Free. Because it's wonderful, and also it makes me want to dance. Seriously though, this band is amazing at creating upbeat, uplifting songs. And as if that weren't enough, they've got wonderful lyrics to go along with them. I'm grateful for Hillsong, a Christian band who isn't afraid to be creative and innovative with their music and inspire young Christian artists everywhere.
Loving...
The most adorable library we found in my city several weeks ago. Basically, this is what a library is supposed to look like. Think Belle's library from Beauty & the Beast meets Hogwarts. In other words, perfection. Not only is this place gorgeous, it's also actually a theological library. It's private property full of shelves of Christian books that is open to the public certain times during the week. Oh and the owner hosts theological lectures every now and then, also open to the public and with free food to go along with them. So yeah, this place is magical. So glad I came across it.
Working on...
Being more intentional about my blog. Although I've (technically) had a blog for almost four years, last year was the year I really put my heart and soul into it, and posted much more frequently. But I want this year to be even more intentional. I'm going to try (and this is wild for me) scheduling my posts in advance, and being consistent about the content I share. That really is a challenge because I'm a spontaneous person at heart who likes posting things when I feel like it! But I think this will be a good and needed change. I'd love to hear your feedback on it as well. :)
