I know that I am suppose to pay attention in class, focus on what the teacher is saying, and take notes etc. but today was just one of those days where my mind could not stay on task as hard as I tried. I was thinking about anything and everything possible. I was thinking about Spring break which we have in a few weeks. I am heading to Florida for the week with some family and friends. I was also thinking about how I am excited for nice weather, laying on the beach, jet skiing and so much more.
One of the things that I began thinking about was my life. My sister and my parents always tell me that I should write a book about my life. For those of you who don’t know, I am blind and have had a degenerative eye condition since I was born. I do not let it get in my way, I actually have fun with it sometimes and that is what I think I would talk about if I wrote this book. So many funny things have happened to me and so many great things along the way.
I always have this problem with writing a paper or even a blog. I never know how to start what I am writing. Usually once I get a good start I can write or type for hours, but I am trying to think of how to start a book and that seems impossible right now. I am trying to figure out what will catch the readers eye or lure them into my life story. If anyone has any interesting ideas, please share them with me.
This is what I was thinking about all during class and before I knew it, I had taken no notes, and the class was almost over. I better go and read the chapter and jot down some notes.
Hi Erin!
I would absolutely love to read your book. I have a friend who’s brother has a similar condition as you and he has a whole different perspective on life that is quite inspiring to others. I feel your story would do the same, especially since you seem to have a good sense of humor about it and you’re not letting it keep you down!
I love your blogs, keep on writing girl!
