Life & Christmas

So as you all know, Christmas is right around the corner and I'm quite excited.

ANDDDDD 6 days left until my 18th birthday! 

Yes, to answer your mental question, it does suck having a birthday 3 days after Christmas. But what can you do? I'm just happy that I'll be 18 before the majority of my classmates will be.

I don't have a lot to write about so I'm going to keep it short and sweet. Merry Christmas everyone! (in 3 days) 

Late - (Draft from August)

Hello writers, readers, or anyone who has managed to get to this blog somehow. I haven't written forever, so I felt that a greeting was necessary.

Why haven't I written in forever, you may ask. Well, I'd like to say that I was on an exotic journey through the Amazon rain forest, or getting a front-seat view on the wild animals in Africa, however, I wasn't doing either of those things. No, instead, I spent most of my August in British Columbia and working.

Okay, okay, so it hasn't exactly been an eventful month. British Columbia was awesome, and I saw so many beautiful things. Work is alright, too, but doesn't compare to being able to relax. I'm getting paid though, so it isn't a big deal.

School started on Wednesday, and I've been a little stressed. Yeah,  I know, it's only been 2 days, and it's not like I'm overloaded. 

Life & Success

I wrote a blog post a while back titled "Life and Rejection" where I ranted about how I had experienced some major rejections in the past year.

Well, it's not quite 2014 yet, and I wanted to write about my recent success.

I doubt anyone knows this, but I applied for the Loran Scholarship in October. I received an email about a week ago that said I was a semi-finalist and I would be getting interviewed over the phone.

And now I'm heading to Toronto in February to do in-person interviews!
