A Fresh Start

Sometimes a fresh start is all you need.

You could chop off all your locks 1920’s style.

Or use 1 million clips to pin up your hair because of a director request for me to figure out how to pin long hair to short.

Success!

And who needs a haircut when there’s a fresh layer of rain covering the ground?

The Glass

Still excited about Thoroughly Modern Millie.

Now on the topic of glasses, I got some.

I’ve had glasses, 8th and 9th grade, but then I got contacts. I wear them daily because my old glasses didn’t have the right prescription any longer.

I wanted glasses for the afternoons and weekends, because I take my contacts out the second I get home. For the reasons (1) they irritate my eyes the longer I wear them, (2) I wear my pair of daily-wear contacts for up to a full week. I know, it’s not a good thing, but they’re only worn for six hours every day. And (3) because I don’t like having to put them in on the weekends because I am mostly in the house.

I can see clearly now my glasses are on.

I can see all the obstacles far away-ay.

I can see clearly now my glasses are on.

It’s gonna be a clear, clear clear, clear cle-e-ar da-a-ay!

Distractions

I have been doing so much homework this week. Which is frustrating because it takes so much time and it’s my week off.

These are my sharpen-able pencils, interesting yes? This post is a mishmash of all my distractions.

 

 

Homework (3)

I set up my station, with much care, much more than I should’ve given it.Homework (4)

I worked for 20 minutes and then reset the timer. It’s a weird was to keep time, but it kept me working.
