A Day in the Life (1/15/16)

I have to admit that it’s hard to get back into the routine of going to classes and work and studying. As I woke up yesterday morning, I was struggling to find the motivation to get up and go to class. As I coaxed myself out of bed, I decided that I would try my very first “Day in the Life” project. I took photos all day as I went through my normal routine. This allowed me to look at my new classes and routine from a fresh perspective. Instead of dragging myself through my Friday, I spent the day appreciating the beauty of ordinary life.
