So lately I haven't known what to blog about! Nothing really huge is going on, I get to spend lots of time with my family or working everyday, which is wonderful. But nothing really crazy or interesting to readers has happened.

Then I realized something. It's up to ME to be happy. It's up to me to do something interesting or find the good in the days so that I do have something to say! If I just wait to say things that are very exciting or funny, I'm not being true to the name of this blog, "Grasp the Moment."

I haven't been "Grasping the Moment" lately. And that stops right now!

So here's the story of how this blog came to have that name.

I was creating my blog the summer before senior year. I had blogs prior to this one, but didn't post very regularly and they were sapppppy. Junior High stuff, we've all been there.

Anyway.

I was picking a background (which I've changed a million times) and a URL (average day of a ginger? Classic) and then came time to come up with a title. I couldn't think of anything. I started thinking about what I wanted this blog to be about. My life, the things I was doing, the things I found interesting. I wanted to make every moment of my life matter.

BAM.

Grasp the moment. I typed that in, felt very clever, and that was that.

So now here's my "Grasp the Moment" challenge for myself. Feel free to join in:)
