Hi, guys! I don't want anyone to think that I have been putting off on In Clover. I am still rereading so I know exactly where to pick up, but I AM still in school. It is my last semester for a while, and in order to pay this semesters tuition, I do need to work. This is not something that I planned on doing, as I had financial aide for my first few years of school. Unfortunately, life happened, and after transferring, I was honestly kept in the dark on a lot of things--like credits that could have been transferred, and academic forgiveness that could have saved my grades. I was approved for campus housing, and last semester, the shuttle was unreliable so I missed my morning classes often. I do not want to make excuses, though. My failures are solely because of me and the assumption that, "It will never happen to me..."
With that being said, again, I have still been rereading. The problem now comes from my hometown becoming a foreign planet since I transferred. My one and only friendship ended, I got my first boyfriend (the one that I spoke about earlier this year, but ultimately removed the chapter), and I tried to juggle working with school--something that I now see was only manageable at my previous school because I lived on campus.
Anyhow, the bookstore/coffee shop that I wrote in has been sold to a boutique, now. For me, atmosphere is everything. Home is not a place of solace for me anymore. I would rather be elsewhere, and perhaps during my semester off, I can work towards that. But for now, I am working on finding a place to better focus on my work. I truly appreciate the patience I have been given, and I too am disappointed in my year long absence. This is one of my favorite pieces, and regardless of what happens, I will never stop writing it.
I do still write, and if you want a glimpse into my personal endeavors, I will link my blog. You can also find me on Tiktok.com/drunkenmosaic
Feel free to reach out. I am always up to chatting.
