September Goals – My First Vlog

3 Comments
Hey folks! Welcome to the second gloriously beautiful day of September! In case any of y’all don’t know, September is the beginning of my absolutely favorite part of the year. Whenever this fantastic month rolls, I feel like hugging the world and celebrating and dancing around while adding even more memories to the folder marked Septembering. 
So, since my celebrations are generally uniqueish little creatures, I decided that the way I would celebrate this time would be by posting my very first vlog on Noveltea. (Vlog = video blog.) I have seriously wanted to vlog for years now, and I’m so crazy-excited to finally have the chance to! 
In my vlog today, I’ll be discussing my goals for September, so yay! This month is pretty full, and I’m ready to dive in. You can either watch the movie above, or click on the link here. I’d be quite delighted to hear feedback. 😉 
A big thank you to my little bro, Moses, for being a total sweetheart and stopping what he was doing so he could film for me. You rock, buddy!

D is for Daily #atozchallenge & April Goals

Creativity is a lifestyle for me, not an action. This month I’m exploring twenty-six quirky ways I keep my creativity flowing. 

There are hundreds (if not thousands) of opportunities to be creative on a daily basis. While walking down the road you can create an impromptu dance, while making supper you can create a new recipe, while babysitting you can create a new world for your charges to live in through a story.

You can also develop a creative atmosphere around you by doing mundane tasks in an interesting way. Take for instance sleeping: It takes up so much time, therefore I wanted to sleep in a unique way (being unique always ramps up the creativity cells in my brain). Almost two years ago I got rid of my bed so now I curl up on the floor each night and I feel creative while going to sleep. Pretty cool.

I strive to be creative daily and it really does pay off.
