I congratulate you all on making it through this year thus far. For me, it has been a wild ride with many changes. I expect nothing less from 2020. I would love to recap some moments from 2019 as this will be my last blog of the year(weep).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><span style=\"color: #ffcc99;\">January:<\/span> Although this month was mostly filled with moments that could be considered &#8216;bad,&#8217; I still appreciate it. Without January I would not have discovered who I was, and probably would have been a completely different person today. So yeah, thanks January.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><span style=\"color: #ffcc99;\">February:<\/span> This was a fantastic month. I submitted my portfolio for MSA in hopes of coming where I am now. I was nervous, and the auditions were intimidating, but it gave me so much inspiration.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><span style=\"color: #ffcc99;\">March:<\/span> I believe February\/March (mostly March) was when I discovered a big part of who I am. It was a big success since I told myself in January that I would go on a self discovery journey. These days I feel more confident in myself because of March. Also, this was the month I got my acceptance letter to MSA. Getting into both things I auditioned(literary\/theater) in was a dream I didn&#8217;t think I would accomplish. I was so happy, and my future seemed clear.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><span style=\"color: #ffcc99;\">April\/May:<\/span> I&#8217;m going to be honest, I don&#8217;t remember much about April. In May I was just waiting to complete my sophomore year with great grades. Plus I was brainstorming ideas for what my dorm would look like at MSA\/ what I needed to get. During this month I also got to go back to MSA to meet the literaries. Plus, I went to New Orleans with my mom \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><span style=\"color: #ffcc99;\">June\/July:<\/span> My summer was mainly filled with vacations with my family. I went to Florida\/ Disney World which was a lot of fun. During that time I was gathering many items for MSA. I was so excited!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><span style=\"color: #ffcc99;\">August:<\/span> It took forever for August to come around. I was waiting for the day that I could finally go to MSA! I had all my stuff packed up, and made my way to Brookhaven. I was so shy, but my roommate was a big help on getting me used to the place. I remember all the junior literaries sat together at lunch\/dinner because we did not know many people. Until we finally made more friends. A few weeks into August my true self showed (a goofy sarcastic fool), and I started sitting with great friends that I had made(a big step for me). Overall, I grew in many ways.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><span style=\"color: #ffcc99;\">September:<\/span> This month I found long term friends, and had a ton of fun with them. Although, this was the month that my roommate left(and boy did I cry). Besides that, September was a great time for my social life\/ school life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><span style=\"color: #ffcc99;\">October:<\/span> ARTOBERFEST. Yep, that&#8217;s it. Okay, so Artoberfest took up most of everyone&#8217;s time that was involved. It consisted of getting our rooms together for the haunted house. It was fun, but hard work as well. There were many laughs during Artoberfest. I made some new friends during this month as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><span style=\"color: #ffcc99;\">November\/December:<\/span>\u00a0These were busy months. November was filled with workshops and revisions. December has been a hard month for me, but I also feel like I know who I am\/ what I want now. It&#8217;s crazy that I will be 17 December 30. It seemed like just yesterday I was 13. Time goes by quickly, but I will be looking forward to the rest of my time here at this lovely place. I know I still have much more growing to do.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">Happy Holidays! \ud83d\ude09\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unless&#8230; Guess what? 2019 is almost over!
