Endings & Beginnings (entry no.48)

 Hello hello! It's been nearly a month since my last entry although I desperately wanted to write another entry last week. However, these last few weeks have thrown a lot of curveballs at me. Nothing I can't manage obviously but curveballs nonetheless. Exactly a week ago, I attended my last in person class of my program and 5 days ago I submitted my final assignment. After entries upon entries talking about April it's finally here! I'm done and I couldn't be happier! I genuinely feel like I'm dreaming, I feel light as a feather yet my heart is so full it could burst! 

To my friends and family who actually read my entries, thank you so very much for coming along on this spectacular journey. And when I say journey, I mean the WHOLE journey. Work, school, pioneering, I will never be that triple threat again. I'm mostly relieved about that but also a little sad because it's the end of an era. I'm saying goodbye to the craziest and most resilient person I've ever had the privilege of knowing. The Abby who started her first job on the week of her very first midterms. The Abby who went straight from finals to pioneer school in 2023, who sobbed in the car when the day was done because she had to go work. 

It's truly amazing what you can accomplish when you have a support system as strong as mine. I'm forever grateful to all of you and hope I've made you proud. A new era also signifies new and exciting changes. Fore example, I got my computer back! I am no longer using my dad's computer to complete last minute assignments after mine broke down at the end of semester 3. I once again have my beautiful little white laptop, now freshly decorated with stickers courtesy of one of my favorite work homies :) Also, I now have bangs! I'm bringing them back just like I said I would back in entry no.45. I'll also get to start working on a super cool volunteer project on May 5th and I couldn't be happier. 

But what's truly beautiful about all of this is that you dear reader have been around for nearly the whole journey. "Something Inconspicuous" is now over a year old! We've laughed, we've cried, we've done it all. I mean, if you didn't that's ok but I certainly did a lot of both of those while writing these entries. We've defended the queen of white girl bangers Taylor Swift, we've cheered Bukayo Saka and his star-crossed trophy. We've danced in the rain as Strawberry Shortcake, learnt Portuguese, obsessed over candy canes, and of course defied gravity! Smiles, laughter, love, tears, heartbreak, sweat, and probably even blood has gone into this blog, this beautiful life of mine. I know I say it all the time but thanks for sticking around, I mean that from the bottom of my heart. 

You're still here? Meet me at entry no.49 :)

Are you coming or going? (entry no.50)

It's been quite a while since my last blog post. Honestly I've been having too much fun while also stressing out and it's made me a fabulous combination of overstimulated and lazy. Hence why I have not posted an entry in over a month! But I don't want to let anymore time pass, I want to keep documenting my life, my experiences, and thoughts for a long time. My life updates aren't as interesting anymore now that I'm not in school. Well my life is actually super interesting right now but I just don't feel like writing about it, I'd rather live it in the moment.  I've got so many exciting plans for the summer, trips I want to take, people I want to see, hobbies I want to get back into. Like I do every summer, I want to go back to learning the ukulele, I also wanna take time to play some of my favorite video games again. I just find it hard to pursue these things cuz I legitimately cannot sit still, it's awful. I still try to pick up a book every now...

I fall for pretty home and away kits (entry no.25)

 Ayeooo, she's back only 4 days later, please hold your applause until the entry is finished. I'm currently a multi-tasking queen, typing away as I watch England vs Serbia, both team's first match in this year's Euro Cup. So far so good, we're winning one nothing and Southgate created a killer starting line-up not gonna lie. We got Kane, Foden, and Saka up front and Rice, Bellingham, and Trent in midfield... need I say more. Now that I'm writing, I realize that I haven't once mentioned what I thought about the team's new jerseys. I think they are cool, very classic looking but not as cool as the ones they wore during the 2022 World Cup. I loved both of those home and away kits. The bright red away colors and the white and bright blue home jerseys were perfection.  However, Germany's home and away kits this year were my absolute favorites. The white home jerseys with hints of red, yellow, and black look so beautiful, almost like the players are on fir...

Co-workers & Classmates (entry no.47)

 Hello! It's been a minute, I know it always has been but I always feel the need to say that when I start an entry. I'm currently in my 10:00 am Web Technologies class, after today I only have to come two more times and I'll officially be done with this course. The same is true for my other Friday class on Microsoft Power Shell, I'm really nervous about that final exam. If I don's pass it I could very easily fail my class. I have NEVER failed a class, not in middle school, not in high school, not in college, and hopefully I never will. Long hours of studying await me to make the previous statement a reality. But my determination is just as strong as my fear and anxiety. If I want it enough I can have it, April is finally here, (not literally, but I'm trying to make a point). Honestly, it feels surreal how close to the finish line I am, college has taken up two years of my life. I was 19 when I started. On week six of my first semester I started working at my cur...
