Hey guys! 

I finished my finals this week! Yay! Here’s what else I’ve been up to…

Since first semester is done, I’m determined to sleep earlier. I’ve been trying to eat healthier, but it’s so hard. Not only do my brothers go through food within a week, all my dad can buy for snacks is junk food. It doesn’t help that the healthier food is pricer than chips or soda. What’s up with that man?! It’s like they’re trying to fatten people up. If anyone has any suggestions for healthy food at a good price, please leave a comment below! 

As I said at the beginning, finals is over for now. I think I did well on most of them. Now I’m working on being more productive and being smarter at how I learn. I’ve also gotten messier this year for some reason. So I’m spending the four day break cleaning out the old assignments and making sure I have everything for second semester. 

Besides making sure my school life is on track, I’ve been cleaning up my room and getting rid of items that I don’t use anymore. My closet has become smaller as a result, but there’s still so many places I still need to clean out. My books are all over the place, so I’ve decided to clean that out next. Even though my heart is breaking at the thought of having to get rid of books, I feel like it’ll be better in the long run. Espcially if I ever move out. 

Drinking water everyday has become a habit now. It feels weird to drink lots of soda, but there are days where I do just that since we run out of water so often. Oops. 

My writing has been slowed down. I do journal everyday, but with finals and studying, I deflected the poetry and short story part. I’m spending this weekend catching up and I’m really looking forward to it. 

Organization has been a steady uphill climb right now as I’ve been cleaning up and putting everything into its place these past few days. I still have a long way to go, but at least I’m on track.

Exercising has become a challenge. Right now I do it at night right before I shower, but I feel like it’s not the right time for me. With school, studying, and working on writing and this blog, I have no idea how I’ll exercise when school goes back into session. Maybe I’ll do it right after school. Who knows.
