I am currently reading a compilation of stories called “Bad Girls” and I forget the editors name. The reason I got started is because there is a blizzard going on and I can’t go anywhere. My problem is that sometimes I get bored with the book I am reading and don’t feel like finishing it. Every once in a while, I find a great book and read it cover to cover in a day or two. If a book doesn’t engross me that easily, I put it down and don’t go back to it. But if I haven’t read in a while, I’m afraid I might get dumber.

I used to dance every single day, and I loved it! I was in the best shape of my life. Then some stuff happened in my life and ended up quitting. I tried to get back into it, but never kept at it. A couple weeks ago, I registered at a local dance studio that I had been wanting to get myself to go to for a couple of years. I loved it! I have been doing it 3 days a week for the past couple of weeks, except that we had a CRAZY major snowstorm, worse than any snowstorm in over 40 years, so I haven’t been able to go for the past week. I plan to end up going almost every day eventually.
I want to start painting AGAIN. The reason I am not doing it now is only because my boyfriend, with whom I live, thinks that we don’t have enough room in our apartment and that I will get paint on the carpet and he will lose his deposit. He even works for an oil paint company and has thousands of dollars worth of oil paints that he got FOR FREE. In order to do this, I must do another thing, move out of this apartment to a house.
