Day 03- A Picture of You and your Friends

Sorry, I don't have any really recent pictures, but I like all of these a lot.

Day 02- The Meaning Behind your Blog Name

Breathe me in.

To be honest, I don't even know how I came up with it.  All I knew was I wanted to start a blog to start keeping track of my creativity a little bit better.  Anyone could read it and give me their thoughts on my thoughts.  I wanted them to experience what I was experiencing.  A good metaphor, I thought, for that was breathing.

Breathe me in.  Know what I'm experiencing.  Feel what I'm feeling.

My blog has changed a lot since I've created it; it's evolved just like I have over the last few years.  It's now more of a journal, but I still think that the title applies.

9. I miss my roommates (including Jamie, our honorary roommate).
10. I'm proud of the new organization systems I've put into place in my room. Yes, I'm a nerd.
11. I ran a 5K a couple of weeks ago, and I'm training for a 10K that is at the end of July.
12. Mi manca la lingua italiana ogni giorno.  Che bella lingua.

14. One of the skills I'm trying to master is being a kid and an adult at the same time.
15. I like finishing lists on number that end in 5 or 0.

30 Day Challenge

I'm so sorry.  I've been a horrible blogger lately.  I've been busy - two jobs and an internship can get kind of crazy.  I've also been knocking books off of my reading list, which has been a really nice feeling.  Anyway, to make it up to you, I'm going to be doing this blogging challenge.  So, I hope you enjoy the next 30 days!
