Keep Calm and Write a Blog!

Some people are always like, how do you write so many blogs? I have 3 as of now,  including this personal one, a teaching one with my  friend (

) and a school one (

.) I admit that at times it can be a lot, but at the same time, blogging is a source of comfort for me. I find it fun and it provides an outlet for me. I love being able to write and share my photos with the world.

So if you are hesitant about starting a blog, why not get started on it today?! The world is waiting to hear your voice. Check out some tips that Melody and I wrote for a presentation here:

 I’ve posted some quotes that I found on pinterest that have been inspiring me! :)

Paris in the Spring

Slice of Life Challenge Entry #13

After many years of dreaming about it, my dream is finally becoming a reality.  In 11 days, I will be on plane flying directly to Paris for spring break! Oui, c’est vrai!  Here are some of the things I’m hoping to do.

  • Sip on cafe au lait at les deux magots while writing in my writer’s notebook and hope for some of the same inspiration that Hemingway and Camus received!
  • Eat freshly baked baguettes and croissants from the bakery on the corner for breakfast.
  • Gaze upon the city of Paris at night from the top of the Eiffel Tower.
  • Take a ton of photos of the Eiffel tower in the background.
  • Have a picnic in the garden overlooking Versailles
  • Admire the waterlilies that Monet painted in Giverny (i hope it’s the right season).
  • Eat macarons from laduree and savor every small bite.
  • Walk past the L’Arc De Triomphe while humming the song Aux Champs Elysees that my middle school French teacher taught us.
  • Try to recover and use some of the French that I learned all through out middle school and high school…
  • Walk into Chanel and Louis Vuitton all dressed up and act like I can afford to buy the things inside.
  • Admire the Sacre Coeur from the outside and inside.
…and so much more! Any good recommendations?
