So... I'm going to follow her lead by adding more than one fact, because -let's face it- it's WAY too hard. ;) plus this post I'm going to just mess around, and do many imaginary things because it's a lot of fun to just type this sign: *
Fact 1) Goodreads Challenge: Read 100 books this year.
I've never really counted how many books I've read, and this year decided to give the Goodreads challenge a go. As of yesterday I completed my 63rd book -and no, they were not little kids books. So I may or may not be addicted to books. (but not in a bad way)
On another book related note I realized earlier this week how hard it is for me to leave a bookstore without buying a book. I'll soon do a post showing my book collection, but it is looking pretty nice! *crams books in hidden compartments so parents don't realize how many there are*
Fact 2) I'm helping put on a writing contest! *dances around to the Happy song* I'll do the official post in a couple of days, but get your thinking cap on! We have great prizes, and plenty of excited judges, so be sure to share this with anyone and everyone! (I also made a page for it, so if you want an early peak you can go ahead)
Fact 3) hmm. *tries to think of something non book/writing related* Oh! I'm trying to learn Russian for a missions trip this summer. Hopefully I can actually remember everything, and not ask for vodka when I'm trying to get water. :) (they are different by one sound)
Well, I should probably close out with my verse. Romans 12:2: "Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect." I chose this verse because God has been telling me to not conform to this world so I'll fit in, but to just spend time with Him. Then I will be changed for the glory of God.
As they say in Russia, "Paka paka!"
Ooh! Interesting! Thank you for doing this!
