Destination Bliss: June 2016

Inspiration

I finished writing my first exam yesterday morning (which was absolutely horrible and it took me 4 HOURS) but after my other two exams on Monday and Tuesday I AM DONE. IT WILL OFFICIALLY BE SUMMER VACATION WOOT WOO!!!

I actually cannot believe that it’s June like I swear I was putting up my Christmas tree just yesterday and now it’s warm outside. WHAT.

Summer is actually a pretty big deal for me because there is LITERALLY snow on the ground where I live from October-May, that’s 8/12 months, which means that I live 67% of the year in SNOW. EW.

Anyways, it’s summer now so YAY. This also means that my freshman year of high school is over and I’m so sad. (ok I know what your thinking “argh is she really preaching ‘bout how much she loves school, like ew go away” BUT I PROMISE YOU MY HIGH SCHOOL IS GREAT AND I LOVE IT) So, I thought that I would summarize all the awesome things that happened.

SEPTEMBER:

THIS WAS A CRAZY MONTH

I started high school at a school where I knew absolutely no one. But I thankfully met this one amazing little gal who introduced me to her friend group. BOOM I had 5 new best friends.

Also this month I was elected onto my school’s Student Council as Grade 9 Representative which was pretty cool (they announced your name over the announcements, it was pretty legit just sayin’)

OCTOBER-DECEMBER:

Let’s just say that October was the month for emotional breakdowns and leave it at that. Okay? Okay.

BUT DECEMBER WAS WONDERFUL BECAUSE A. CHRISTMAS AND B. I GOT TO BE IN MY HIGH SCHOOL’S PRODUCTION OF ELF THE MUSICAL!! Okay so I didn’t actually have a real ‘part’ in the play but I was a background dancer and it was SO MUCH FUN.

JANUARY-MARCH:

To be honest I don’t really remember much of January as I was probably in post-Christmas depression, but I do remember exams which sucked but let's be real, when DON’T exams suck.

BUT FEBRUARY WAS GREAT! February was the start of semester 2 so I had all new classes. Thankfully I absolutely LOVED almost all of my classes which just made this semester go by so much faster.

During March Break my mum and I headed down to the big city for a couple of days just to get away which was oodles of fun.

Also right before Easter my grandma was admitted to the hospital. She had gotten the flu and when they brought her into emerge she got worse and worse. She spent 3 weeks in ICU and she was in a coma for 11 days. She is now still in the hospital and is slowly getting better.

APRIL-MAY:

April and May were pretty crazy months. In April I attended a couple of conferences and made some really great memories with my friends.

In May I played A LOT of tennis on my school’s tennis team (okay so I only went to one practice BUT I practiced on my own I promise) and we had our last Student Council event of the year, the ‘Year in Review’ assembly.

JUNE:

JUNE WAS PRETTY DARN AWESOME. First of all my school decided to put HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL as their spring production. OF COURSE I jumped on this opportunity to live my childhood dream, and let me tell you IT WAS AMAZING! This time I actually got a part* as one of Sharpey’s minions and IT WAS SO MUCH FUN OMG!

*at my high school the senior drama class puts on the production and sometimes they select certain grade 9’s or 10’s to have small parts. I WAS A LUCKY ONE.

Also in June was the Student Council re-elections. Unfortunately I did not get re-elected onto council, but that’s okay and I took the bad news like a boss (after a couple of tears first...)

I also got accepted into a medical summer program WHICH IM SO PUMPED FOR!!!!

And now we’re here. In the middle of exams. Emotionally unstable because the grade 12 are graduating and I love them all so much.

talk to me...

How was your school year? Ups, Downs? Are you excited for summer?

LOTS OF HUGS!

10 Moments That Automatically Make You Feel Better

8:25 PM

You’re walking to school on a Monday morning, it starts raining and of course you don’t have an umbrella so you put your jacket on your head and start running down the street like a maniac. Then when you get there you remember that you have a chemistry test and that your pretty much screwed.

So hear is a list for one of these days. A list about all the sneaky things that happen that make us feel like we run the world. These little moments remind us that within all this negativity and bad vibes there is something brighter, and more beautiful out there.

So yeah, have a super cool, smiley day my friends and may it be filled with sparkles and happiness and little things that make you feel unstoppable!

Successfully balancing a pencil on your face. 2ND GRADE GOALS.

Remembering to drink water like WOW LOOK AT ME I’M BASICALLY A CAMEL NOW.

Waking up before your alarm goes off and thinking OMG MY ALARM IS GOING TO GO OFF ANY SECOND I CAN FEEL IT COMING then looking over and seeing that it’s 2:39am.

Peace out world, there is sleep to be had.

Drawing a straight line without a ruler. This is a real accomplishment my friend.

Picking out an outfit, then trying it on and realizing that I LOOK LIKE A MODEL WHERE IS MY PRIVATE JET YOU PEASANTS.

Getting distracted while on a run and realizing that wait hold on sec I ran 200m more then I planned to. I should write a fitness blog because I am so fit.

Thinking that you watched the last episode of your fav t.v show in all of history then realizing that you still have 1 more episode. I’ve never felt more relieved.

Having someone else suggest ordering takeout because those calories don’t count if they weren’t your idea.

Walking past a dog and bonding with it on a whole other level. Hmm... where will you sleep and what colour collar should I buy you?

Finding a super cute shirt and see that it is 50% off. IT’S BASICALLY FREE YAY NO REGRETS!
