Dream Journal

Hiiii everyone!

Lately I have become quite annoyed at the fact that I can NEVER remember my dreams. I am referring to when I am actually aware that I had a dream during the night, which in itself is rare. The moment I wake up I can recall it clearly but later in the morning (even 10 minutes later) the details are fuzzy, and I struggle to remember what happened. Sometimes I want to tell my friends or family about a dream I had because it was funny or weird or whatever the reason, but I just cannot remember it for the life of me!
For this reason I have decided to start a dream journal. I am aware that this may seem a bit odd to some people but I think it's a neat idea. Both my mom and one of my closest friends mentioned doing this and I figured I'd give it a try and  I have found the perfect journal! :)

I have actually had this journal for over a year, but I had no idea what to use it for. I didn't want to use it as my main journal as there are no lines and the pages are more difficult to write on than normal paper. For a dream journal though I thought this was perfect!
Now I am actually very lazy when it comes to journals. If I am writing a long entry, there are times when I may not even complete it. This being said, I am going to try my hardest not to be lazy with this one. It is sitting on my night table with a pen so that if I wake up and remember a dream I can write it down right away.
Let me know what you think of this idea, or if you have done this before, let me know how it went. :)
I hope you all have a lovely day
Byeeeee <3

Letters

 I have always loved getting letters in the mail. When I was younger, my mom was the director of a camp and I would go there every summer. During the winter months, I would constantly write and receive letters from the friends that I made at the camp. Now a days people just use the internet to connect with people. Don't get me wrong, social networking is very useful, and I have remained in contact with many people because of it. But there is just something about getting a letter in the mail. It is so exhilarating to open that letter and see your friend's handwriting sprawled across the page. I am aware that this may sound old fashioned, but I love it! 

     The reason that I have brought this up is because I have just recently finished my first year of university, and one of my friends that I made lives in Alberta. This is quite far from where I live and although she just recently got Facebook, we decided to write letters to each other. To me, getting an actual letter is much more satisfying than a simple Facebook message. On Tuesday, I received my first letter from my friend and I cannot explain to you how delighted I was to get this. It was such a lovely surprise as I had no idea when she was going to send one.  

     When I had finished reading it, I was thrilled because it meant that I got to write one back to her. Now I do get a bit carried away sometimes when I am writing, and so mine was quite lengthy but I know she will enjoy it nevertheless. 

     Using the internet as a way to connect with people is definitely the most convenient way to do things, but to me writing a letter is so much more special and personal.
