I'm currently wrapped up in my holiday blanket, listening to Mariah Carey's Christmas album, with my fairy lights on. I'm ready.
HAPPY DECEMBER!
YES I KNOW IT IS THE TENTH. YES I KNOW I AM LATE. Leave me alone.
I LOVE DECEMBER. December is the best month of winter. Don't attack me, because I'm right. No one likes January and February, get real.
THIS MONTH'S EVENTS
YESTERDAY I had my very first high school DANCE. SCREAM. WHAT. It was tons of fun and everyone had a great time and WE SCREAMED OUR HEADS OFF to Shakira and the Spice Girls. Because what else would you dance to?
Needless to say, my throat burns.
I also have my orchestra concert on Thursday which is pretty cool and I love our songs because they're not too terribly boring :') We're playing a Karl Jenkins song so. YES.
ALSO HOLIDAYS?? I don't celebrate any holidays that are in December, but I STILL FREAKING LOVE THE HOLIDAYS. I put up a mini tree in my room and everything it's great.
I am SO ready for the break. I need some serious time away from AP Euro. It's killing me, guys. Sadly, we're not going anywhere, but honestly, I don't mind some quality, lazy time at home.
TO BE READ
- THE HATE U GIVE / angie thomas
This will be a reread jUST BECAUSE I LOVE THIS BOOK SO MUCH. It is everything I need in a book, honestly, and I love everything that Angie Thomas does.
- DRAW THE LINE / laurent linn
I picked this one up a few months ago because I found it quite intruging, and nothing like I've ever read before. I'm not quite sure how I'll feel about it, but I am willing to give it a shot. RISKS ARE GOOD.
- MANSFIELD PARK / jane austen
Classics are something I've been trying to get into, and I feel like Jane Austen is definitely a perfect place to go. I've read a few of her novels, and my mom told me this one is very well written, so I'm excited to pick it up :D
- A COURT OF THORNS AND ROSES / sarah j maas
I KNOW. I KNOW. Everyone and their mother has read this but I never found the heart to read it? I'M SORRY. It's time though, I need to hop on this train, and maybe hop off after I finish this book ahha. Throne of Glass wasn't really my thing, but hopefully this won't be like that??
GOALS THAT MAY OR MAY NOT BE ACCOMPLISHED
- DRAW TWO NEW PIECES EVERY WEEK
Something I've been neglecting lately is my art, which is quite sad considering it brings me so much joy. I just have SO SO much to do, that I don't seem to make time for it. BUT I AM DETERMINED TO DO THIS.
- EAT. BREAKFAST.
I wake up around an hour before my bus comes, and it goes something like this:
6:00 - just 15 more minutes!!
6:15 - noooo
6:17 - ok fine i'm going
6:18 - washing my face is nice i'm gonna do this for 5 minutes straight
6:30 - crap
6:35 - outfit time
6:37 - I'M IN A CRISIS. NOTHING TO WEAR.
6:40 - this is good this is fine
6:45 - brush my hair now and throw on some mascara
6:50 - this outfit is terrible
6:55 - AHHHHHH
7:00 - CRAP
7:05 - ok i made my bus. WAIT I DIDN'T EAT BREAKFAST
I NEED TO EAT BREAKFAST. Solution? PICK MY OUTFIT THE NIGHT BEFORE. PLS.
- DRINK THREE GLASSES OF WATER EVERY DAY
My dad and I found so many health benefits to drinking water? IT'S CRAZY. I'm terrible at it, I probably drink a glass a day because I always forget :')
But I'm really going to try to bump up my water game because it's important. I WILL BE HEALTHY.
NOVEMBER NONSENSE
The first picture is of a watercolor painting I did of the LEGENDARY Finn Wolfhard for my art class! IT TOOK ME SOOO LONG.
Here are some of my BEST Black Friday purchases including a Funko Pop of LUCAS. SINCLAIR. <3333 and Pokemon Ultra Sun (nerd)
THEN a gorg picture of Washington Monument from our DC trip!
I take wayyyy too many pictures of sunsets but they're all so beautiful. heart eyes.
This is a picture of me at 49,900 words?? WHY DIDN'T I TAKE ONE AT 50,000. i'm so strange.
I TOOK A SELFIE WITH ONE OF THE STATUES AT THE WOMENS MUSEUM AT SENECA FALLS. i'm so strange.
How is your December so far? How was your November? On a scale from Scrooge to Mariah Carey how festive are you feeling right now?
peace out y'all,
noor
Okay, you're telling me you went to a school recently, but didn't go to Homecoming??? O.O It's probably the order of our dances that's switched-- homecoming isn't terrible at my school, while the Winter Frost dance is more couple based and thus why it's really awkward. Also THERE'S A NEW POKEMON GAME WHAT IS THIS AND WHY HAVE I NOT HEARD OF IT UNTIL JUST NOW.

ups & downs
i am feeling so festive oh my gosh I LOVE DECEMBER AHHH ahah (um i'm not freaking out what are you on about Noor?. ahahha.. ahah.. aha. hehe....).
ReplyDeletealso wow I can't believe you only drink 1 glass of water a day (i'm not judging you*, just find that quite weird - i love water (although apparently you're meant to drink 8 glasses a day.. and even I don't do that)).
My November was fine, nothing much happened except NaNo which basically took over my November (when I sat down to write my November Recap, I literally couldn't think of anything to write about except NaNo, so it ended up being a NaNoWriMo recap ahahahah).

*genuinely not judging you ahah thought that may sound sarcastic, based on how much sarcasm I use lol
i honestly agree with acotar, i just can't seem to get into it. hopefully i'll finish reading it one day.
ReplyDeleteand OH MY that watercolour of finn wolfhard is incredible! keep up the amazing work!
i'm not feeling overly festive... so it's time to go listen to 'please don't jump (it's christmas)' by dallon weekes... again. :)
