Boredom Post Round 3

I told myself when I made this blog yesterday that I'd try to be consistent with posting. Something like once, maybe twice a day, or more if I hadn't posted in awhile. But frankly, I'm hella bored and feeling bleh. I'll be pretty post-filled throughout the coming summer, probably less so when the school year starts and I'm back on my grind. I'm in an absurd amount of extracurriculars: theater, school newspaper, food club, film club, French club, National Honors Society, community service work, athletic training, current events club, my improv group, (luck permitting) student council, AND I'm still hunting for some sort of job. It's only going to get harder as I'm taking on more leadership roles within those various spheres: I'll be co-editor in chief next year for newspaper, I may be elected for NHS president/vice president, I'm secretary of French club already, and as a senior I'll be taking on responsibility for helping underclassmen learn the ins and outs of it all. I'll also be swamped with work from 3 AP classes, 2 honors/advanced classes, and rigorous schoolwork in general. Basically I am apologizing in advance for when I fall behind on posting next year. So yeah, sorry, and consistency be damned I'll be posting more cat gifs!!!!!!

Beauty Video


Several months ago for an English project, my boyfriend Andy helped me make a video. My project was on how the media affects the way society views beauty and how that view affects a woman's self-image throughout all walks of life. The video was focused on kids' opinions and observations.

As I'm pretty sure I've mentioned in previous posts, I want to write and  produce movies when I'm out of school. Andy wants to write and direct them. It's pretty perfect. Apart from being the crowning gem of my English project/magnum opus of schoolwork, this video means a lot to me because it's the first thing that I've ever worked on with Andy.

I hope that it's enjoyable, informative, and thought-provoking to all who watch it.

Lazy Sundays are the best kinds of Sundays. There's nothing better in the mind of a sleep-deprived teenager than getting 13 hours of sleep then eating a giant carbtastic breakfast. Days like these get me incredibly excited for summer vacation. Even though I'll be jobless and bored, I'll get to catch up on all the sleep I miss out on during the school year.
