Sometimes when we look and try to take in everything, we lose focus of that which is important, of that which may be right in front of us and staring us in the face. Sometimes it's not just the little things that we miss, but also the bigger more obvious ones too.

•Having a laptop is a great tool for studying, but sometimes it can be a distraction

•Studying with your friends can also be a distraction, when you’re with your friends you are distracted and you don’t feel motivated ( the friends didn’t want to be in the photo but you can see a hand)

•Having unlimited internet can also be a distraction because as you can see she is watching a movie.

Goli Otok (Barren Island). Also known as the 'Croatian Alcatraz' for its use as a prison and labor camp for political prisoners. Estimates say over 4000 died on the island due to the harsh weather conditions and severe punishments.

 

The prison closed in December 1988 and was left to ruin. Those who survived call it "living hell".

This is part of a project I am doing with some friends called the 30 Day Blogrimage. It's a challenge to take something on for a month, be it a daily activity, a change in our way of life, learning something new or a challenge to overcome. Each day, we'll be blogging about it and following along with each other.
