Currently

It's been almost 2 months since I've done one of these! It's crazy how fast time goes looking back at these posts. I feel like I write them all the time, but it's been so long!


Loving: Cambridge! I think I've said that enough, but I just love it so much more than my other school. It's so great to be able to actually get off campus and walk everywhere. I'm definitely a city person!

Watching: I've been trying to catch up on all the shows I've missed over time. So of course I'm watching The Bachelor and the farewell season of American Idol (sad!), but I've also been watching season 4 of New Girl and I'm going to watch the newest season of Hart of Dixie next. Woo!

Reading: The Art of Happiness by Howard Cutler, written through the teachings of the Dalai Lama. It's great! This is just for fun, but I'm also using it to learn a lot. I highlight sentences that I like while I read (which I usually do anyway in books) and I'm just learning a lot. Can I also say how great I feel that I'm reading a new book every month?! I never used to do that!
  
Anticipating: Hmm.. this is honestly a tough one! Usually what I write here is wanting to go home, or excited for Summer or this and that. I don't really have anything on the horizon I'm anticipating! I also think part of me is just trying to enjoy the 'here and now'. I'm finally at a place I love. The weather is great. I do miss home, but I like it here just as much. So yeah!

Listening: I haven't really gotten any new music lately... I scored an old Britney Spears CD for $5 at target over break so I listened to that in the car a lot. I also came across No Diggity by Chet Faker on my Mumford & Sons Pandora Radio, so that's been on repeat too. Give me some new songs! I'm clearly a little dry on the music front.

 Working on: Finding friends. I feel super comfortable here, but the main thing I need right now is a solid group of friends.  was obviously worried about this one coming into a new school, so I know it'll take time. I'm not going to worry too much about it, but I feel like that is the last piece of the puzzle I need to make my experience here awesome.

Write your own currently post and send me the link - I'd love to read about your life!
Thanks to Dani from Sometimes Sweet for this post idea and the picture above is from my Tumblr.

Have a great day!

This is great! I love that you highlight sentences in your book. It is always easier to look back on some of the best bits that way.

Thanks, Shannon! Definitely. There are always one or 2 sentences in every book I read that I absolutely love.
