Nothing is better than walking in the rain

Picture is from here
Hello! First journal entry on my upcoming, new blog *raising the roof*! So I've been working on my huge essay for school (I go to an IB school) which is called an EE or extended essay, and I made this bet with my mother that I would be able to finish the rough draft of the EE by this sunday at 11 a.m. If i  win the bet then I would get this Kathy Van Zeeland purse that she bought but never used, but if I loose I would have to give her my GUESS purse that I have not used yet. I thought it was going to be easy, but am I wrong. I so far have about 60 words done and a huge writers block, not to mention I need to be writing my college application essays too. So I have created a work area in our basement on our childhood plastic picnic table, and using an exercise ball as a chair since I can't since on the bench without half my butt sticking out. So I was having a huge writer's block and so I decided that it would be good to take a walk in the rain since it was something I have never done before. Armed with my floral umbrella, keys to the house, and my iPhone, I went outdoors. It was remarkably soothing walking down the sidewalk with the rain beating down the umbrella and no one outside but me and road ahead of me. It just gave me time to take in all the nature (yes this does sound corny and cheesy but it's true :P) and the beauty it possesses. I came back inspired, but not for my writer's block unfortunately, but for creating and blogging on my blog. So thank you for reading and taking the time to stop by and hopefully you too will be inspired and learn from me.
