a little life update

good evening! i usually post on saturdays, but i’m going on a trip this weekend so unfortunately i’ll be unavailable. i have missed multiple posting days, so i figured a life update is well over due.

i just finished my fourth week of school, which is crazy that it’s already the end of august. i’ve readjusted to the school environment well, although i have had some ups and down. i didn’t do well on two assessments, which i’m disappointed about, but i’m determined to do better in the future. i’m loving my journalism class. everyone in that class (which is about eleven or twelve people including me) is so nice and it feels less like a class and more like a club. i’m looking forward towards getting to know everyone more and working with them. in the spring, we’re going to new york city for an event, which i’m so excited for.

i’ve also been working a lot, saving up for future trips and goals i have. i’m going on a trip with my mom in the fall, and that’s the first thing i’m saving for. we’re going to be doing a lot of shopping and eating, so i’ll need some pocket money. i’m also saving up for a family trip next summer, and a possible trip with friends. in addition to those trips, i want money for when i spend time with friends, want to purchase something, etc. i love my job, my bosses, and the work environment. for those who don’t know, i work at a french pastry kiosk.

i’m also a part of multiple extracurriculars. i’ll be working on costumes for my school’s autumn plays. i’m doing that with a close friend of mine and i’m looking forward to that. i’m also a girl scout and i’m beginning my gold award. i joined the literary magazine at my school. i’m so glad i have creative outlets at school, which can get boring.

i’m beginning to tour colleges, which is absolutely insane to me. the first visit will be when i’m on the trip with my mom in the fall. it’s my dream school, and i’m giddy just thinking about it. i’ve also been seriously considering going to university in europe, but i guess we’ll see how life plays out.

thank you for reading my rambling and have a great week!
