CURRENTLY October

My favourite month of the year is here! Happy October, everyone!



Listening: We have this app on our Roku called Rdio (yes, that’s how it’s spelled). There’s the occasional 30 second ad, but it has lots of different playlists to choose from. It also comes with a phone app so you can control it from any room in the house. It’s perfect for lazy people like myself.

Loving: I love October weather. I was tired of sweating to death each and every day, especially working in a building sans air conditioning. Bring on the sweaters, scarves, and boots!

Thinking: My 26th birthday is coming up and my mom called me the other day to ask what I want. Truth is, I have no idea. I feel like all year I can easily compile a list of things I want, but when it actually comes down to it, I have no idea. I could use a new car or laptop, but I have a feeling those exceed the birthday budget just a tad.

Wanting: I left work yesterday with the dreaded pink eye. #teacherlife After my good friend and colleague worriedly asked me if I had been crying all day, I decided to go to the doctor, and she confirmed what I had suspected. So today I’m off work; not because I’m feeling sick, but because I’m contagious. And bored. I don’t deal with quarantine well.

Needing: I had planned to use this sick day as a day to sit in my comfies and watch movies while I get some solid planning done. I’ve accomplished the first two. I was about to get started on my unit planning but then I (for some reason) Googled myself and one of my previous Currently posts came up and it reminded me to do this month’s edition. See? I told you I was bored.


Boo-tiful: I think what make you beautiful is the song by the same title by One Direction. Kidding. Sort of. I love One Direction. I think being confident and comfortable in your own skin is what makes someone beautiful. I tell this to people all the time. I’m a hypocrite, though because I have struggled with this myself for years now. It’s much easier to tell someone else to love him or herself the way they are than to do it yourself.
