So, I think this is just thirteen facts about me? Idk, Webkinzluver5 wasn't super clear, but I think it is!
1. I have almost survived my junior year of high school and I've never been as emotionally or mentally exhausted in my life as I have been this year.
2. I've finally decided what I want to be when I grow up: an elementary teacher and an author. I have signed up for a life of no money, haven't I?
3. I've never been medically diagnosed, but recently I've started to suspect that I might have social anxiety disorder? I've never really paid much attention to it before but I've noticed I exhibit a lot of the symptoms, like excess fear of being judged, concern about offending people, and too much worry about embarrassment or humiliation. I've always thought I was just too shy, but recently I've been wondering if there's more to it than that because I've been noticing that, while I've gotten better at actually talking to people (by forcing myself to), the thought of it still terrifies me and I dwell on super I significant things for extended periods of time and I just freeze up all the time in social situations. Anyway, just a thought, and I definitely don't know for sure if I have this or not.
4. I got a job a few months ago and for the first time in my life I've been able to afford the books I want and it's an amazing feeling of power.
5. I've played piano for eleven years now, and I've been on the praise team at my Christian school for the past two years and it's frankly sucked, so I went and talked to my principal recently about some ideas I had to make it better and she was super on board with it all and actually made me the leader of the praise team for next year!
6. I'm procrastinating on writing as I write this (this has become such a problem this year. School has made me lose motivation for everything, including things I want to do. I'm just so tired, all the time.)
7. I used to love drama (the class) at my school, but we got a new teacher this year and she doesn't know what she's doing and it's been terrible this whole year. I was going to switch out at the beginning of this semester but then she announced that we were doing High School Musical, and what kind of idiot would leave when that was happening? So I stayed, and we had the cast list and everything (I was going to be Kelsi!). Then this semester she found out that the rights to Disney shows cost actual money so we switched to a rip-off version of the Wizard of Oz called the Magical Land of Oz. I'm Aunt Em, which is cool because like at least people know my name, but I have four lines and I'm in the show twice and I'm just really not motivated. The play is next week and it's going to suck because none of us care. Like, at all.
8. I don't know why my facts are so long other than the fact that I just enjoy writing.
9. I need to ask my boss for a raise, because I've been there for several months now and working minimum wage isn't doing it for me, but I don't know how and I'm kind of scared to.
10. I started watching the Office in December and I didn't finish it until April. I loved it, but even though I'd like to say a binge-watched, I did not. I have remarkably good self-control, except when it comes to forcing myself to STOP PROCRASTINATING!
11. Speaking of self-control, I have only spent money on gas since I got paid two weeks ago, and if that doesn't sum up my life, I don't know what does. It's not that I don't want to spend money, it's that I don't go anywhere or do anything. Even if I had time, I'd rather stay in bed.
12. I got to write a paper in my English class over The Help. I love that book.
13. If you guys want to read an amazing, thought-provoking, super detailed and interesting and involved series with super well-developed characters who seem really life-like, you should read the Unwind dystology by Neil Shusterman. I read it and loved it so much that I immediately went out and bought the whole series (and I rarely buy that many books at once, or that quickly, so that should tell you something). It was amazing, it made me cry (legit sobbing) and laugh and cry from happiness (no joke, I've literally never done that at a book before this series). Please read it. No one I know has and they won't listen to me and read it. Please someone read it and fangirl with me. I need someone to understand my love for this.
Okay, anyway, here's who I tag:
@anyone else who wants to do this! I definitely didn't tag everyone I talk to on here...
