Updates

So, all those horrible awful, doubt-filled days I've been having?

DONE. This week has just been so awesome that I feel like it makes up for every crappy day I've had since the beginning of the school year. I mean, nothing can really describe how I feel, but thisFlorence song comes pretty darn close.

So, reasons why I'm feeling awesome:

1. I got my scholarship reply in the mail! Along with my letter they sent me a box of yummy Godivas. I'm convinced that I'm going to the awesomest school in the universe.



2. Today I FINALLY learned how to make spring rolls. As someone who is half Filipino, I felt like a fail for not knowing how to cook food from my own culture, but now I know how to make yummy delicious spring rolls!

3. For my school's senior superlatives I was voted most likely to be famous (for girls) and I made it into the senior hall of fame, which is voted on by teachers.

4. Yearbook is THIS close to being finished. I mean, don't get me wrong, we're all sweating bullets trying to get pages sent in before deadline, but I'm starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel!

5. In a mere few weeks I will be in Dallas, dancing my face off to Grouplove and Young the Giant at the Prophet Bar. I.CAN'T.WAIT.

So yeah. Despite having to read Heart of Darkness, complete a take home test for AP Eco, write a children's book for AP Eco, complete AT LEAST two art pieces, and write a paper over Rosencrantz and Guildenstern--- ALL DURING SPRING BREAK--- I'm going to be ok. Everything is great.
COME AT ME WORLD.

  1. YAY OPTIMISM!! Also, I adore Flo + the Machine. I think the beginning of March is always super ridiculously stressful because that's when the reality and responsibilities of school are most apparent.

    After taking a few deep breaths, I can say I'm with you. Work will not change, so my attitude towards it is going to have to :)

    Also, now is the time to register for the AP tests... yuck!

  6. I'm glad everything is going very much fantastically now. :) Having fancy chocolates sent to you is definitely a mood enhancer! And Grouplove AND Young The Giant?! JEALOUS.

    We're reading Heart of Darkness right now too. So very dry. My spring break isn't until April, though, sadly.
