The Year in Review

The year is drawing to a close, and this will be the last blog post of the year 2018. This year has been a trip honestly. I don’t even remember January much, let alone October. But I think I’ll do a review of this year for this blog post. So we’ll see how much I remember!

Seriously, I remember nothing. Though January hosts the birthdays of my mom and my cousin, so happy birthday to them! Oh wait! I met this really cool girl, and we got super close. Her name’s Lindsey, and we met in my journalism class. It was crazy how close we got in about a month. It got to the point where some of our classmates thought we were dating, but nope. Not true.

February was a fun month. Why? Because the Winter Olympics (Feb. 8-25) went down! I tuned in especially when men’s figure skating came on. I was rooting for the Russian skaters, Mihkail Kolyada and Dmitri Aliev, and American skater, Nathan Chen. The hype for Chen was crazy – he was supposed to be the first male to land five quad jumps at the Olympics, but when he competed the first night, the pressure got to him and he didn’t land them. But that changed for his final skate. He not only landed all five of his quad jumps, he added an extra quad to redeem himself. It was awesome. There was a kid in my grade who was also into figure skating for the same reason I was (Yuri on Ice), and we’d talk to each other about the skate programs everyday in our first block. Man… That was nice.

March-April

Two more months I remember nothing about. Next!

The only thing I remember from May was New Student Day, here at MSA. It was nice meeting all the seniors and getting to see some of my peers. But that’s about it besides school ending.

June-July

Celebrated my birthday in June, spent as much time with Jennifer as I could, got to see family… Got on a boat for the first time! Yep, lived on the coast for 16 years and had never been on a boat. That’s a summary of the life I live.  Also spent the latter part of July buying stuff for my dorm.

August-September

School. That’s all I remember in this span of time. 

Ah, October, also known as Morgan’s favorite month, it just had to be featured! So what happened this month? This awesome band know as Ice Nine Kills released their album, The Silver Scream, on October 5th.  Leading up to their release, all I did was listen to them. Every. Single. Day. It was beautiful. And the album was worth the wait, in my opinion. Also, Halloween happened, but I wasn’t home for that so there aren’t any memories associated with it this time. 

November-December

Absolutely nothing. Except maybe a little bit of stress, but I’m actually managing it well! So it’s not that bad.

The girl from D'Iberville is a really dull girl. She locks herself up in her room, content to spend her time reading and occasionally writing. She loves to read little YA romances and sometimes finds herself with books about history. The main thing motivating her writing is her overactive imagination and the strange dreams that plague her sleep. Her works also stem from what she has heard from music, conversations, or when half asleep. Crazed killers, haunted mirrors, and murderous siblings seem to be part of her stories in some way, but they always start off in her dreams. She started writing when she was in middle school, but had been telling stories since she was little.
