KriAteefiteeeee!

Since the start of three weeks ago, I've been enjoying and filling it up with lots of personal projects as I'm school-free from my first ever Spring term. I can't believe that in the past four years of Uni that I never had four months of summer to myself until now. It's quite interesting how this panned out, but I guess being in a small program has its perks and downfalls.

Despite initially tossing around the idea of finding a second PT to fill up my schedule, I realized that I probably won't ever have this much time off again, so why not invest in things I've wanted to do , but have pushed to the back of my head?

Now that this period of "freedom" has been kicking in, I noticed that I have more to dos than I thought and the list seems to keep growing as I progress from one item to the next . One thing leads to another, and before you know it, I'm feeling overwhelmed (but it is a positive one, unlike the overwhelming feeling of school work). From small errands, appointments, to projects, I guess I've pushed a lot of hobbies and me time out of the way when school is lurking.

Sitting down to start a hands on project, I am reminded of how I can keep myself occupied for long periods of activity time. Minutes become hours, and before I know it, half a day goes by! It brings me back to my childhood days where I stock up on any craft project and supplies I can allow my creativity to flow from. If I had all the time in the world, I would probably attempt my growing list of Pinterest ideas as well. It's just so satisfying to make something from scratch or give something that has a personal touch to it.

Who doesn't want something that money can't buy?

I love DIY!
