I'm back. How is everyone feeling???? (crickets chirp in the distance) Okay okay, I know you all missed me. I have had a very big past 6? 8? months. I am now back in school full time and am going to study in London this summer! It is a five week literary program where one of the classes is literally studying Shakespeare at the Globe! I am so incredibly excited that I get sick to my stomach if I think about it for more than 30 seconds. This is a dream that I have had for years. London is the heart of the literary world and I am going to be part of it. I will have 5 weeks of no job, new friends, and a new world to explore. I am shaking just looking at my passport. 

Besides that very cool news, I have been feeling pretty good about life in general. I am enjoying school, although I am starting to slip into my old habits which I'm trying to resist. I am feeling good about friends, one of my friends from Billy's is even coming with on the trip to London (it was actually her idea that I go) and i might also be making a friend in my poetry class right now! 

But anyways, things are going well, I officially deleted TikTok in like December and DO NOT miss it. I also deleted Instagram off my phone like last week and am trying to be better with screens. I have not been reading a lot in the past few months but I am starting to get back into it which always feels nice. 

Ce la vie. -syd
