Guess who's back!

Hello everyone

Yes I am still alive...

So..its been a while hasn't it, many things have happened in this absence of mine but don't worry i'm here to fill you in.

So way back a few month ago my sister and I went on a momentous trip to America. This trip was something so magical and I could never have imagined it to turn out the way it did since it was so perfect. First week I saw my grandmother in Florida whom I had not seen in 9 years! seeing her was a very lovely experience I was lucky to talk to her about my family and her children as well as clothes,Tv shows etc. After that my sister and I flew off to Philadelphia! Let me just say that Philly is an extremely cool,beautiful and interesting place! The incredible history there is magical and being the crazy American history fanatic that I am I was absolutely in my element. In Philly we stayed with and my Mothers brother and his family. This experience has changed my life, my uncle and his family whom I had never met before were so open, loving and friendly they let us walk right into their lives and act as if we were always there. I have created a bond with my family over their which I will be forever grateful for, this trip made me realize how much America is apart of me and that that interesting and weird connection I had always felt actually does make sense. I hope in the future to return and see the lovely gift of family that I have.

All together this trip was amazing and as well as spending time with  family I also did copious amounts of shopping,eating and exploring. I even got to spend a day in New York which was  stupendous!

Here are a sample of photos from the trip

Back to school.

Happy Monday everyone!


This past week I unfortunatly returned back to the hallowed halls of High school. So I'm not saying I love school, so don't turn on me but I'm kind of happy to welcome to it back. I know I enjoy and benefit from having a sense of structure in my life ,does anyone else feel that? So this year is a semi big year for me, I'm now in year 11 my second last year. Im suddenly much closer to the top of the food chain than ever before and I kind of love it! First of all yes i do have harder classes (I'm even doing two year 12 subjects Legal and screen acting) but all the subjects I'm doing are things I really enjoy so that makes studying way less of a chore. Secondly this year at my school we get "frees" which are basically lessons where we have nothing and are meant to study but not everyone does. After being back for a few days now I've realised how valuable "frees" are since if i don't dilly dally i can get my homework done and have a relatively free night (score!) And thirdly, its only happened a few times but I've noticed the younger students start to look up at fellow students and I for guidance and i kind of love it! the sense that I have this responsibly as an upper clansmen to help younger students (I know this sounds super cheesy) Anyway so as a whole Im glad I'm back at school the main thing I greatly dislike is MORNINGS! belch! I'm not really a morning person at all! or at least at the moment I'm not. Im always so tired and I end up rushing Because  I stay in bed to much. I usually bribe myself with a yummy breakfast.


Does anyone else feel like this?
