Sketching, organizing, thrifting, cooking, reading

I enjoy sketching my life, I print out pictures of fun times I captured and go off from there. I draw occasionally when I feel inspired. I took an art class in my first semester of college and it really taught me how to be patient with work. I also enjoy journaling, sometimes I write my dreams down and break them apart, I also write my feelings down. Especially when I am feeling upset. I come up with goals that I try to hit by the end of the month and use words of affirmation to get me through tough times. I love to read mindfulness books that help me understand myself a little more.
