i'm not dead.

and let's face it, the majority of people who will read that actually associate with me in person.
so you knew it already.

but to those of you who don't,
i'm not dead.
i've just found myself with very little to write about.

it sort of seems like all i talk about here is art.  and france.  because those are things that make me happy.
but happy things like france and art are not the only places in which one can find happiness.

remember this?


"happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light."

-albus dumbledore

so i propose a change.  my life is not all sunshine and puppies and ice cream and happiness.  the purpose of me writing this blog was to see the good in all that happens in life, because at the beginning of it, i was not happy.  i think that life is wonderful, but sometimes i forget.

so i'm going to remember.

i'm going to look for reasons life is wonderful.

i'm going to help you remember.

and for those of you who don't know it yet, i'm going to show you that life is wonderful.

or at least i am going to try.

life does not have to be perfect

to be wonderful.

also, i have $36.04 in my "jane needs to go to paris someday" fund.

oh, and my drawing class is the best.

have a nice day.
