Become an Early Riser (Long Term Goal - Part 1)
My first day of the challenge today and we're off to a really good start. So good that I ended up waking at 5:00 am. This was great as I was able to get in an extra hours worth of reading this morning. I started reading Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse last night and I struggled to put it down, then, I was fast sleep by 10:30 pm and before I knew it I was awake and desperate to continue reading, thus I'm not complaining. Furthermore, I found out that I actually ended up needing th

#389 Draw my Life ✔
I know I'm a little late with this one... several years behind, to be slightly more accurate. But, I've never really been one for trends. I just wanted to get my story out there, and to hopefully allow it to help support, comfort or inspire those who watch it, to not give up. Life does get better, you just need a new perspective. As cheesy as these words may be, never give up. And as the pigeon in An American Tail (1986) would say: Keep up your courage, don't ever despair, ta

#665 Compose a Song. ✔
Hey guys, so, this is both rather personal and emotional for me, but, one of my bucket list goals is to compose a song, and so, I put together a song about my experience as an Autistic person growing up. For all teenagers the era of young adulthood was a turbulent phase, but, I feel that for myself, and I assume other people with Autism and special needs also, may experience a slightly more difficult time than others (by no means am I trying to downplay other teenagers

#996 Become a fur parent. ✔
This past week has been many things, the one thing it hasn't been boring. My partner and I decided to become parents to two beautiful bunnies and in all honesty, I could not be more blissful. They have brought with them so much love, entertainment, curiosity for life, and endless amounts of cuddles and kisses, that it has helped me to grow significantly even in just a short week. The bunnies have also allowed me to get back into some form of routine. I've got to admit that s

A Week of Children's Books. (With book reviews)
Hi, my name is Natacha and I'm a 25 year old who spent this past week reading kids books. Why, you ask? Good question. These kids books just so happened to have been on my bucket list. The reason as to why they were there in the first place is due to the fact that as a child I used to read tons and tons of books. I watched The Borrowers, and I watched Stuart Little. And yet, somehow I managed to have gone the whole of my childhood and unknowingly skip past them. I guess my us
