There is not enough time in the day – or so it seems. Lately I've been feeling like I can't possibly accomplish everything I want in a mere 24 hours. Talk about impossible!

Now that I've graduated, I have quite a bit of free time on my hands. During my four & a half years of school, I dreamt about the moment when I wouldn't be swamped with homework and projects.

Evann. Yes, Evann. Pronounced like Evan. I'm usually the first & only girl Evan(n) that people meet, and some even think that I'm lying when I tell them my name. I'm not. But anyway, that's a different story for a different day.
