A Little Flower Grows

Catholic Lifestyle Blog

{Midweek Musings} 7.8.15

July 8, 2015

It’s been a while since I posted one of these! So since today is Wednesday, I thought I’d post one to check in + get you caught up a bit on my random life happenings.

By the way, my series about my England trip is now complete! If you haven’t yet, check out all 5 blog posts to read about my adventures there + see some of my best photos!

~ Lately ~


Listening: My current song obsession is “Bright” by Echosmith. I think it’s so cute, plus it’s fun to sing. I want to learn it on my guitar so I can play/sing a cover of it!

Reading: My summer reading goal is (was) to read the Lord of the Rings trilogy. However, seeing as we’re approaching mid-July and I still have not finished The Fellowship of the Ring, I’m not sure that’s actually going to happen (#slowreaderproblems). But that’s alright ~ I’ll just aim to read as much of it as I can!

Eating/drinking: This summer, I’ve had a cup or two of English breakfast tea almost every morning. Today was no exception, and I even followed it up with a cup of Zen tea. Also, yesterday I consumed two chai tea lattes. I promise I’m not obsessed.

Wearing: Well, yesterday, I wore a brand new pair of pants that I purchased from Forever 21 earlier this week. I LOVE them! I’ve always thought this style of pants was so cute, comfortable, + modest ~ and now that I have a pair of my own, I can confirm that all of those things are true!

Planning: I’m kind of itching to do something fun + exciting before heading back to school, so I’m planning a possible (but rather up in the air) trip to visit a couple friends in another state. I’m hoping this won’t end up being one of my crazy, way-out-of-the-realm-of-realistic-possibility travel ideas that I tend to come up with, but that it might actually be able to happen! 

Striving: To succeed in my biology class! I’m currently taking Biology 101 at my local community college to fulfill one of my needed science requirements at my regular college. The sciences ~ biology, chemistry, physics ~ have always been my worst subjects, because everything in them literally goes straight over my head. (I know, it’s pretty sad.) But I’m determined to work hard at this bio class, try my best to understand cells + DNA + all those other concepts, and ace the class!

How is your summer going? Anything new + exciting going on in your life lately?

Thanks for reading! God bless!

I have soo much love for JP2. He was the pope of my childhood - the first papa from as far back as I can remember.

I love so many of his other writings too, and gosh I just love him in general.
