It's Been Awhile

Apr 22, 2014 19:32

Hey again. I think about this Livejournal frequently. I try to log in occasionally so that my account doesn't get deleted, and I think that I'd honestly really enjoy writing here again.

I'm seventeen now. It feels pretty cool. I'm doing online school with Penn Foster, and I should be getting my HS diploma in the next few months. I have one more history exam and the I'm finished with that class, and after that I have a literature class (which I'm really looking forward to!), a psychology class, and a music class. I'm so excited to be finished!

After I graduate HS, I think I'd like to get a technical writing degree at Penn Foster. Writing is truly my passion, and I think being able to make money off of my words as well as have plenty of time to work on my books on the side would be ideal. I dread having to work at some place like Sonic or Casey's simply because of my anxiety, but I think I could do that if I had to.

I don't remember really what was going on in my life during my last few posts. I know I was sad, and I know that I'm doing a lot better now, so that's a start.

I enjoyed my freshman year at my old school. I was sad about Austin a lot, but overall it was a great year. I didn't get to enjoy my sophomore year because I got sick within the first few months of it. That was sad, but I'm kind of grateful for it because now I really love school. Before, every day was a battle. Having to get up early and make myself go to a place I hated was so hard, but now, my life is so much easier. I'm at home often, I sleep when I want to, and I feel like I'm actually learning and enjoying my studies. I only hope that I made the right choice.

As for hobbies nowadays, I play games a lot. Animal Crossing: New Leaf has become something I'm extremely dedicated to, as well as the Sims 3. I post a lot on tumblr about both of those things. In fact, one of my sims is even a SMUT Sim (smutsims.tumblr.com) and it's so much fun. It's saddening sometimes when I work really hard on a photo prompt and only get a few notes, but I know that enjoying something is more important than how many followers or notes it brings in. As for AC, I have quite a few followers on that blog, and I really love interacting with the community. I enjoy it a lot.

Tomorrow I am going to some thrift stores with my aunt. It's gonna be lots of fun, I think. She's such a sweetheart, and I'm really glad we've started to hang out again. I'm also hoping I can find some new clothes I like because it's been a long time since I've bought some new clothes.

One of my cats, Misha, disappeared the other day, but he finally showed up again on Easter. He's getting fixed tomorrow, and I'm gonna miss him while he's gone. He's my baby, after all! He lets me hold his paw when we lay together; it's the sweetest thing!

I'm still dating Doc, and things are going really good there. He has a job now (he and my dad both do, actually!), and even though he hates getting up early I know he loves making money. It's nice to get space now, too.

As soon as I finish my history class, I'm going to try to finish editing my first novel You Should Be Here.I think the title may change, but I don't really know what to call it. It's about a drunk driving accident, and it's pretty sad. The ending is gr10, though, haha :D
After I finish that, I'd really like to write a fantasy novel based on a dream I had a few months ago. I think that would be a lot of fun, and it would push me out of my comfort zone. I have so many ideas I need to get down haha! I also need to look into publishing, but that idea is really daunting. I think I'll work on that while I'm getting my degree or after that. We shall see.

Anyway, I think I might play Pokemon X or something. Dad is making me dinner since I feel sick. He's such a great dad hehe

Maybe I will post again soon?

wow i'm back, animal crossing, pokemon x, sims, new leaf, sims 3, updates
