NOvemBERRR, I need to get it TooGETHERR
Hey..!
Sorry, I feel entirely embarrassed for turning in a late blog, but I've been MIA from Facebook for a long while, only to have Instagram. I keep forgetting to check the Leadership page for updates, and when I do check.. lol I see that a blog was due yesterday night. Therefore, let's talk about November. Honestly, November is a very uneventful month. I mean it is basically filled with school and college. I've been stressing lately because even though I've been focusing on school and college, I still feel unproductive... oh yeah, I forgot, work -.-. Not going to lie, having a job and your own money is so fun when you get to spend it on everything and anything you want. So this month consisted of a lot of money spending and stress, which all works out because shopping is considered a stress reliever. Hey, speaking of, during November I also got into downloading the new Animal Crossing app on the phone. Being a person who already has the Animal Crossing app on the D.S., I had to try the new app out on the phone. Honestly, I thought I was going to be disappointed, but they did a pretty good job at condensing the game and adjusting it to a game theme where people have to go on the app daily, so truthfully, social media is not my distraction at this point, it is Animal Crossing--I may have to rid of that soon. As you can see, nothing eventful really occurred. I am pretty sad because I haven't received any college acceptance letters yet. I feel so unaccomplished whilst all of these AVID students around me are bragging about the universities they're all getting into, but crossing my fingers that I will be receiving some this month. Speaking of stress, OMG. I strongly loathe the college and career center for not sending out my paperwork on time. Ok, so like when you apply to colleges, they require you to send an OFFICIAL transcript and OFFICIAL test scores, meaning that only your school can send those documents out to the colleges. The bulk of the schools that I had applied to were early action, meaning that they have an early deadline for colleges apps, which were November 1 and November 15. Mind you, that I went to the college and career center two weeks before sending in my application so that they would have enough time to gather my documents and send them out to the colleges I'm applying to. BUT NO. Here I am now, still receiving emails and phone calls from EARLY ACTION colleges that they haven't even received my documents, and it is Thanksgiving now (meaning three weeks after deadlines). So as you can see, because our school has so many students, I am now at risk of losing the opportunity of receiving an early application decision as well as scholarships, thanks, C&C. The irony of it all is that these counselors budge us to apply to early action, but now I guess I'm moved to early decision. Don't even get me started, but I had also applied for this scholarship, and right when I submit the application, a page pops up and tells me that I am unable to send my scholarship application because there is a SERVER ERROR. AND YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT'S EVEN MORE FRUSTRATING? MY FRIEND SENDS HIS APPLICATION, AND HIS GOES THROUGH AND WHEN I TELL HIM TO SEND MINE THROUGH HIS COMPUTER, MINE STILL DOESN'T GO THROUGH. But don't worry, of course, I calmly emailed the college about it, and I am all fine.. I hope. Oh yeah, also I would also like to inform you all that I had failed my first AP biology test, which is very disheartening because I hate failing... I may or may have not teared, but it is all good. On a happier note, I am still alive and ready to seize the winter break and finish this senior year strong so that I could write about better things than stress lolol.
In the end, Im pretty sure you all haven't read every, single word of this blog. But, please know that you should never complete things at the last minute. Always be ahead of the game to avoid complications, because complications call for additional stress. Middle school is not hard. Blogs are not hard. Homework is not hard. What is hard is to push yourself to do it. Meaning, start good habits now or else it will haunt you in times that you really need to be productive, aka me. Well, it is now December, so hopefully everything will calm down a little. Sad to say, I'm not spending my Christmas in Hawaii, meaning our house isn't decorated and my mom isn't wrapping presents.. But, I'll try to make the most out of everything around me. Well, I'll be posting the next blog in the Philippines so watch out for that, hopefully I could inform you guys of some good news. Anyway, gotta go back to stressing, bye for now!
