(Sample blog) Already? It seems like my winter break just started, but I guess that’s what happens when you spend the majority of it in another continent (Note: Yes, I know I still need to update about Europe!). I can’t wait until I’m in college this upcoming fall, highschool Christmas breaks are way too short for my liking. I actually woke up super early today around 6:45am, which is typically absolutely unheard of for me on a day off. I have so much to do today, ranging from homework including papers (I have 4 of them to write today.. yikes) to AP Spanish and German translations to speeches to write, etc. I also need to squeeze in a quick workout somewhere, write some thank you notes for all of my Christmas gifts, and run a few errands. Ahhh! A lot to get done but I’m in the mood to just get everything done right now. Helllllo, productivity. On the downside, Josh is finally boarding his cruise to the Bahamas tomorrow after spending the last week or so in Florida, so I won’t be able to hear from him until Saturday/Sunday this week. I haven’t seen him all break due to our opposite vacation schedules and I miss him like crazy. It’s a cliché, but absence really does make the heart grow fonder. I can’t wait to see him again! Anyway, in reference to my huge to-do list, I better start tackling this research paper and get onto the next one. Wish me luck! When do you guys go back to school?!
