31 of 365.

 

I SURVIVED THE FIRST MONTH! Hurray for me.

 

So far I've really enjoyed this 365 experience and I'm relieved that it hasn't felt like a burden as in past attempts I've made. It's gotten me out of the house more, I've used my camera more in this past month than I probably did in all of 2013 and even learnt how to use some features I didn't even know the camera had (bracketing is a good new friend of mine). It's been brilliant really.

 

Am I super proud of every single photo I've taken? No, not necessarily. What I am proud of is that I've not let my bad days defeat me, not let being a perfectionist get the better of me and just had some fun with it.

 

This particular shot came about as I'm always super last minute with all my school assignments and I really didn't have any time to shoot for today, so I just had to make do with what I was spending my evening doing: creating a lesson plan for the children's book The Gruffalo. I'm not actually studying to become a teacher, but I'm taking an elective course titled Teaching English to Young Learners anyway and so far it's probably my favorite class. I must work on my procastination/time management skills though, because I consistently work long into the night to hand in something that was due at midnight…

 

Anyway, happy threehundred- and sixtyfiving to y'all, only 334 days to go. Oh, and February, bring it on!
