Interests and Hobbies

     Just recently I've noticed that I have a bunch of things I want to do in my spare time. I've categorized them into "hobbies" and " interests". I am so interested in these that for the New Year 2014, I'm gonna try and incorporate these into my daily life.

     My first hobby is of course writing for my blog. Yes, I started it this year with the full intent to pay most of my attention at making good topics that will gain interest in the people of the society. I started out strong at the beginning of the year, and then it seemed that I got to involved in life. Now that it's the end of the year, I'm slowly but surely getting back to writing pieces. When I start a piece, I try to think about something that will interest not just me but my readers. For some time, I couldn't think of anything to write. Or I would start a piece and then not end up finishing it. But hopefully, next year it will be different. More experiences, and more interesting times will come next year.

     My interest of playing the guitar has been with me for a couple years. My grandma had a very beautiful guitar that she loved dearly. When she passed, she gave it to me. My parents wanted to keep it safe and so they put it in a safe place ans told me to wait til I was old enough to appreciate it. I'm really glad they did. Now that I'm older and I can appreciate the guitar, I really want to learn how to play. The only thing I need to do is refurbish the guitar.

     I started my party planning business a couple months ago. I've done a couple parties, but with it being just a small time business it will be a rocky start. The idea first came to me when I was watching a T.V show. When I first came up with the idea, it was just for fun. But I've always wanted to make people happy and what a better way then making a day that they'll always remember? I know that it'll be a rough start, but I'm up for the challenge.

     Since I have a love for writing, I would love to write books. When we lived in North Carolina, my best friend and I before I left we sat down and came up with an idea for a book. It was supposed to be about a girl that lived on a remote island when this boy on a plane got into a crash and ended up on the same island. When we moved, I didn't focus on it. Now that I have the time, i'm slowly but surely riding it. It'll take some time though.

     When I was a little girl, my mom always used to sit in the chair when she would watch her soaps and quilt. I was always fascinated at how a normal piece of fabric can turn into a beautiful quilt. I made a little blanket one time for my baby dolls when I was younger. My mom made me 2 quilts that I still have and will always keep dear to my heart. Before I was born, she made me a Minnie Mouse blanket. I used to drag it around the house and it would go everywhere with me. Now that I'm grown, before I left the house my mom made me a queen sized blanket. The pattern has lighthouses, and seas on the top. It took her four years to make,  I keep it very special to my heart.

     The reason I want to start making blankets is because it would be a hobby. I'd make different types of blankets, and it would be for friends or family. But overall, I would really love to make blankets and sell some of them, we will see where that goes.

     People all have interests and hobbies that they love. It can be about anything, or everything. These are mine, and I would love to see what the next year brings me.
