Break is now over for school and today was the first day back. The second half of the break was full of lots of events. I went and saw two Braves games with my family, which was lots of fun but really loud. I went to Alabama to see some of my extended family, which was fun. I saw the movie Wild Robot which is SO GOOD. The art is great, and so is the story. I went to my first pride festival, which was really cool. And lastly, I went to a concert for my mom's birthday! Its been good, but also kinda lame because I havent been able to hang out with one of my friends much :(. We will be hanging out soon though so it will be okay. TOday in school we got pen pal letters from the third graders which was really cool and I'm excited to send one back!
At my school we get three weeks off as fall break. This year, because I'm a senior, I have a lot to do during this break. As of right now, the break is around the halfway mark, and I havent really gotten much done. It's okay though, I still have time even after break to work on things. Even though I havent done much school-wise, I have done some other cool things. I started making this website, for one, which has been really fun. I also have baked cookies twice, as well as making ice cream and turning one of the batches of cookies into ice cream sandwiches. I've played stardew valley and set up my farm to make the most money possible so I can be the richest person in the world! I also cleaned my room a little bit. Its not fully clean but its better, and it doesnt feel as icky anymore! I also have been hanging out with my cat monster like everyday which has been really cool! Later this week im going to babysit my grandmother's cats which should be fun! I have a lot of other cool things coming up too, like: seeing my friends band performance, going to see the braves with my brother, going to visit my grandparents, going to a halloween jumpscare place thingy with my friend, maybe going to a concert or two with my friend, going to my local pride fest(which is in october for some reason), and going to see hadestown at a local theater with my technical theater class! this is all within the next several months. It's very cool because I've never had so many things to look forward to!!! Very excited.
Yippee! My first journal entry!! I'm starting to write here today only because today was interesting and I also just wanted to finally put something here! Okay so today my friend and I went to go do community service together. We went to pick up trash nearby a shopping center in a place that trash often gathers in. We brought snacks, a picnic blanket, water, trash bags, gloves, and cards. We put all our stuff in a concrete drainage tunnel nearby that was surprisingly not dirty. We started listening to MCR's Danger Days, as well as some Chappell Roan, and got to work picking up trash. About a half an hour later, each having about half a bag of trash, we both went over to our stuff and took a "water break". We put down the picnic blanket in the tunnel and sat inside it to get out of the sun. It was pretty chill, but the problem was the fact that neither of us wanted to do anymore work for several reasons: 1. Neither of us got much sleep last night, 2. The sunwas WAY TOO HOT, and 3. I had run out of some of my meds, resulting in having a headache. So basically, the "water break" turned into us chilling in the tunnel eating snacks and playing Among Us on our phones and cribbage with a digitl board on my phone and the cards we brought. Though we got nothing done, it was still happy fun times, and we both plan on volunteering somewhere (with shade) again soon!
