creativity.
I get to be really creative this semester.
School is a lot of work, and work is a lot of work, and marriage is a lot of work. I get to be creative in making each of those work together.
My classes (which are awesome, by the way. I am so passionate about education, and I love my classes) require a lot of creativity. Every project is a creative exercise. That's why they all take so long. No mindless regurgitation involved.
Sam and I are on campus from 7:30am-5:00pm at least. Every day. Then, we drag ourselves home, scrounge up a meal that doesn't take too long to cook (inevitably I'm ravenous), then do homework, and collapse in bed, wishing we had time to do a million things. It's not bad, though. We get to be creative to make things work, and I like the challenge of figuring things out.
P.S. Look what I did this week {I'm really proud of this}:
I took a plain picture frame, some fabric, and red spray paint,
I sprayed the frame red, stuck some magnets on the back, and tacked the fabric to the cardboard (actually, I used elmer's glue and masking tape. We don't own anything more professional)
Put it all together, et voila! A whiteboard!
I'm overly proud of this thing.
And now that I'm diving into this broke, in-school housewife thing.... what are your favorite DIY craft ideas? Things you have in your home (or wish you did)? Creative decorations?
