It’s been almost a month since I last posted.  I feel obligated to say something.

Nothing, aside from finishing the semester, has happened.  Finishing the semester involves a lot of stress, because of my course load, orchestra, Academic Decathlon, and college applications.  I snapped several times.  And I feel I’ve disappointed so many people along the way

Thankfully, it’s winter break now, but I don’t feel that much better.  I’m still as busy as I was during school, except I don’t have those 8+ hours of class and rehearsals.

In any case, I feel that once I finish my economics course and my college applications, I’ll feel a lot better.  So I better get to, huh?  It hasn’t quite registered that I’m essentially finished with high school.  I don’t want to accept it yet, because I am not happy with my performance.  I passed all my classes this semester, but I’m positive a couple of them involved sympathy bumps.  Ashamed, yes, but I’ll just leave it alone.

Happy Holidays, you stinking lot!
