Septemburrr

Ahh! I have been ridiculously, sickeningly slow at going through and posting pictures of this summer's activities. Sorry! Since most people access this via my Facebook profile, I'm not going to bother doing it all again, but some of the photos from our Go Ape trip are up...

I've been trying to start reading again now that I have so much free time - it is and always has been one of my favorite pastimes, but I feel that I've not had much time for it in the past few years. I went through fifteen books during my first-ever five-week trip to Europe. Fifteen. And I managed to get out and see things like a normal person! I just finished reading The Help, which I understand has been made into a movie. I would recommend it to anyone and everyone who will hear me out! I've noticed on book forums people kind of got their panties in a bunch that it wasn't really historically accurate and blah blah blah, but if you're not looking for some serious history, I found it to be a very emotionally moving read.

That's about all I have right now, I pinky-swear promise I will keep working on these Cornwall photos! Also, I would like to take this opportunity to recommend Goodreads to y'all (go on, join)! It's essentially a place for people to keep tabs on what they're reading/what they've read with book suggestions and it's really nice if you like:
  • books
  • lists
  • micromanaging down to the tiniest bits of your life
