I'm back! (Again...)



So I've decided to start blogging again. Blogging can take a lot of hard work and motivation, but this time I'm not doing it for the entertainment of others. I'm doing it for my own personal pleasure and accomplishments. That was primarily something I had in mind when I first began writing, but somewhere in the ruff, I lost touch with myself. I was doing it to please other people and honestly, it wasn't an interesting blog and I wasn't completely happy with it. Creativity was at an all-time-low.

At this point in my life I'm starting a new chapter. I have a lot of upcoming opportunities over the next year and lately I have been working really hard at attaining my goals. Personally, I'm a goal setter. I think the idea of even having goals keeps me motivated. I'm not saying that the goals have to be unattainable, but it's something that can make a huge difference in a day.

With this in mind, I recently applied for a job out of town and I just found out yesterday that I got it! I am so excited to start this new chapter. This is an amazing opportunity that allows me to gain more experience in a different field of work and to connect with the community on a more personal level. On the plus side, I get to live at my cottage. Honestly, I can't wait to live out there for the summer.

The fact that I will be living out of town, in a land where I have no internet, nor cell phone reception means that my blog posts will be a tad inconsistent. This doesn't mean that I will be completely disconnected from the world, but I won't be posting as much as I would like to.

While I'm off in the land of "nowhere", working and enjoying the outdoor life, I will be sure to keep tabs during my summer. I have a few plans to go back to my hometown every few weekends to write and to visit my friends and family.

Like I've said, I'm writing this blog for myself. Ideally, I'd like to keep a type of diary to talk about life, and what I'm enjoying about life at particular moments. 

All in all, I hope you enjoy reading my diaries to the social world. I have a lot of adventures planned and I can't wait to share my inconsistent and hectic life with you all.

Cheers,
JessicaLynn

The Cottage

One of my absolute favourite places to be during summer is at camp. When I was younger I lived there throughout the entire season. I had always found something do to no matter what kind of day it was. The lake is absolutely beautiful. It is one of the most peaceful places I've ever been too. Cars are rare on the road, the lake brushing up against the sandy beach is insanely calming, and the wildlife is pretty well interesting. Here are a few photos that I snapped while venturing amongst the beach. Unfortunately, I wasn't lucky enough to fish as it was a bit too windy (and at one point, too rainy) to go out on the lake on a small boat. I will make a point to create a bit more adventure on my next visit!


Sunset #1
Every night is beautiful like this, and I've never seen an ugly sunset!


While walking along the beach, my grandmother and I found patches of both blueberries and raspberries! That night, we decided to make fresh raspberry pie... And let's just say I had more than one piece... Ha!


Saskatoon berries are also quite popular while going on adventures.. They sit right along the beach, and can be found in many more places!


Sunset #2 - One of my favourites... I love the vibrant orange!


This is the view walking along the path towards the beach! Love!


The rest of the photos are particularly of my view on the beach. It's always really quiet as there are few people that are out and about on the property! As you can now see why it is one of the most peaceful places I've been! 




Hope you enjoyed these photos. I love that I can share my favourite things with you. I miss visiting here all summer, but that's what happens when we grow up!

Much love,
JessicaLynn
