Monday Hangover

I realized today that Tuesdays are just a hangover from Mondays and the weekend. Everyone hates Mondays, but we are still full of energy from relaxing all weekend (hopefully!) and so all day we are expending that energy. On Tuesday we realize, how are we going to get through the week without that weekend energy? And we have a Monday hangover. That explains my day perfectly.


We talked about the Holocaust today in History class. It was very sad and they talked about all the gory details of the gassing and the camps. It made me so sad to realize how many people really lost the meaning of their life and existence because some people thought they weren't 'pure' enough. Germany was in a weak spot because the rest of the world sort of punished them after World War I, so they were angry and wanting revenge. It is easier to comprehend on that level but still, there is zero excuse for the atrocities they performed. Tomorrow we start watching Schindler's List. I'm scared because I've heard it's sad and shocking, but I know that it is for my education and not to try and make me feel bad. Usually I don't cry at movies at all but this may be an exception.

 Also I showed my friends the notebooks I painted for them! I took 2 composition notebooks and painted an ombre pattern on them. One was pink/red and another was blue. I really liked them a lot and I'm glad they like them too. I haven't painted anything since the summer so it was nice to get out the brush again. We will write notes back and forth about our day(s) so we can still tell each other things, since we don't get to hang out a lot.

I really wanted to share this commercial with you guys, it's a google commercial about their app for the iPad. It's really funny and I hope you enjoy it.

I still have to take a shower tonight, and I want to draw a bit too (although I probably won't get to that, oh well) so I will let you guys go with a shorter journal today. I hope you all had a lovely Tuesday, and make sure to take some time to relax for yourself! If you're like me, just these 2 days already into the week have really tired me out.
