Lately, I've Been . . .

You know those times when you really want to blog, but you don't have much inspiration as to what to blog?  Yeah, that.  I'm in one of those slumps.

But never fear!  A good ole "currently" post is sure to come to my rescue.  Here's some of what I've been up to recently! :)

{watching}

• Season 2 of The Crown

These two are so sweet gahh I mean they clearly love each other why can't they always be happy and

communicative and and and ??!!

Watched this with the parents. :)  So this show is amazingly acted with delectable sets and visuals and compelling plots and such-like, but the seventh episode of the second season just revealed why it's rated TV-MA. :-/  I thought it was because of some of the other content, such as in the first season, but . . . nope.  Yeah.  No.

Anyway, we finished this a little while ago, and MAY I JUST SAY THAT THE END OF THE FINAL EPISODE WAS VERY SATISFYING AND IT GAVE ME FEELINGS. <3

• The Lizzie Bennet Diaries

I've watched and loved Emma Approved, so I figured it was about time saw LBD since, you know, reasons.  I don't like LBD as much as EA (there are some things I don't care for), but it sure is addictive.  I just finished this one, too, and DANG IT ALL, Darcy and Lizzie got to me.  I thought I was immune and I was not immune.  I felt feelings.

Also, props to LBD for being the first P&P adaptation to make me feel like I could actually possibly fall for Bingley.  (AND JANE WAS PRICELESS.)

And it's making me want to re-watch EA because that one is so stinking cute, too. ;D

• Ballykissangel

(I know.  That title.)   Only two episodes into this one, so I don't have a whole lot to say yet. 

{reading}

• the Chauntecleer the Rooster trilogy by Walter Wangerin Jr. {The Book of Sorrows got me, y'all.  It got me bad.  It touched my soul.}
• the Gospel of Mark
• The Business of Heaven by C.S. Lewis
• Café Theology by Michael Lloyd

{listening to}

• Oh Honey

I just discovered this band and I really like what I've heard so far!  Here are my two favorites.  Have a listen.  (Pssst, isn't "I Love You Will Still Sound the Same" like the most adorb piece of adorb you've heard in a long time and definitely future wedding video material??)

(Wait.  That sounded somewhat leading.  No.  Whatever idea might have just popped into your head, nope.  No news here. ;))

"Take All the Time You Need" is also really cute. :)

• this YouTube mix

Whiiiich is basically just music that I don't have on my iPod yet/probably won't get but still like/whatever.

{wondering/thinking}

Lots of things.  Some constructive, some not so constructive; some happy, some not so happy.  But, y'know, we're all growing, right? ;)  {And God is always, ALWAYS working, guys.  We can't forget that.  And He loves you.  Like, He really loves you.  A whole lot.  (And He likes you, too.)}

One of the things I've been thinking:  WHAT THE HECK, SPRING.  YOU BETRAYED ME.

Wondering:  WHEN ARE YOU COMING FOR REAL.

{doing}

• school 
• attempting to get my room cleaned, little bits at a time
• wasting time on YouTube and such :-P
• singing!  {Guys, I SANG IN MY SCHOOL'S TALENT SHOW.  *bites fingernails*   It was last night and it went pretty well and it's kind of like that part in Tangled when Rapunzel's saying, "I can't believe I did this.  I CAN'T BELIEVE I DID THIS!!"  Because it's totally not something I would ordinarily be brave enough to do . . . just . . . God. :)  So yeah. :)}

What have you been up to, my loves? :)
