A Day In My Life

Image
Hey, guys! Today is Monday! And I wanted to make a Day In My Life blog post. I have seen many videos on this subject, but not so many blog posts. So I decided that I would show you guys an average day in my life. So what you will see today is behind the scenes of making crafts, and blogging. So without further adieu....Let get into....A Day In My Life. So my morning starts with me waking up, and getting breakfast. For today's morning, I ate toasted bagels with cream cheese. Also, my absolute favorite thing to drink in the morning is hot chocolate. Whether winter or summer, you will always find me drinking hot chocolate.  After breakfast, I get ready for the day. Which means I have to get dressed and ready for school. My go to outfit is a colorful T-shirt and a short skirt or shorts. When School is finally over, I can head over to DIY Crafts Studio(a.k.a my room) and work on some crafts for you guys! I try to make all of the pictures perfect.  :) Aft
