The Meditations of My Heart

Wow. So I haven't posted nearly a month. I have many reasonable explanations for my blogging absence. It seems like I start every new post like this now, but it's just so hard to find time to blog when I have to write the draft to my 2,500 word paper on Elizabeth Barrett Browning in two days (because I procrastinated) and finish my college application, and write the essay for it, and do my national history day project, and have a job (which my last day will be Dec. 18th), and babysit, and have my own business, and run FISH Teens.
