It's New Year's Eve and let me just say woah. THIS YEAR WENT BY REALLY FAST ESPECIALLY THE SCHOOL YEAR LIKE WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED HELP. As I've done in past years (2016 and 2017!) I thought I would do a fun recap of the year. Basically listing some stuff that happened to me this year. :) These posts are always fun to make, so I hope you enjoy ittttttttt. This year though I'm doing my goals separately! Look forward to a post on looking back on goals and new goals and stuff soon. :)

-I lived in the 3rd ward in Houston for a while (after the flood) which was really interesting but right after the break (not sure if this was in 2018 but I don't know I'm counting it) we moved into the house we live in now. It's a lot nicer and is closer to school and stuff which is so much better. Hopefully, by the end of 2019, I can say we're in our new new house (being built now!!!).

What's something cool you did in 2018?

Ok but panic at the disco live sounds amazing. Like if that's the only fun thing you did THEN THAT'S OK. And haha yes beauty and the beast music = super exciting.
DeleteWow, you had such an eventful year! Happy 2019!!!
ReplyDeleteI guess I did. :) I hope you have the best 2019 Gray!
DeleteIt seems your 2018 was so interesting and many nice things happened to you! Happy new year!! :)
ReplyDeleteIt was! Happy new year Annnnnnnn. :)
DeleteWOW. Congrats on an amazing year! I loved you calling Algebra torture (I'm still recovering! ;) ). Here's to an even more amazing 2019. <3
ReplyDeleteI'm just so bad at it lol. It's not good. Happy new year!
DeleteSounds like a interesting year. Just wondering, what the tarnation is NJHS? Is it a specific school or something like that? Going to a women's march sounds like it would be interesting.......... Next semester I actually thought about taking a Women's Right's history class at my college . ( i'm 100% serious) then if someone kicked me due to me being a guy taking a women's rights history class and it being uncomfortable to them, I could file a discrimination against gender complaint, otherwise known as a Title 9, Cause if women and men should have the same rights, a guy should be allowed to take a Women's history class if he wanted to, right?
ReplyDeleteOh sorry I guess I never explained it haha. NJHS stands for National Junior Honor Society so it's like a club at my school. A women's rights history class sounds really cool! You should do that!
Deleteok. I knew it may have not been a high school name, but I had thought and thought about it being a student council /body. The "elected" was what made me think it may have been a student body cause they are common in schools and have fancy titles. But . at the same time NHJS ssound a LOT like it might be the innitals for a high school because of the HS at the end, for example, NGHS stands for Northern Guilford High School. I reckoned the J might have stood for a county or city and the N stood for Northern. That's why I was not sure if it was something like a body or something like that OR a school. Thanks for explaining. :) And for the Women's history class, I may take it next time it is around. The head of the Horticulture Department/ My Adviser told me that more than the 3 classes I am taking would be a Bad idea, so I decided not to take ANY general education classes yet. Oh ya, on Monday I start my classes, and my first class is going to be Equipment Operations and Management. That sounds REALLY fun, don't it? I'm really excited to see how well I can do fixing tractors and such!
DeleteI know this is really random, but what classes do you plan on taking in 2019? I'm taking Equipment Operations and Management ( which since I can't use a steering wheel, may be rather interesting.), Greenhouse Operations ( Learn how to operate greenhouses, I reckon.) And Nursery Production( I guess that is how to grow things that will sell in greenhouse nurseries?) .....
DeleteAhhh good luck with the classes! I hope they're fun! I'm taking all of regular academic classes and also algebra, IPC (integrated physics and chemistry), theatre, broadcast journalism, and karate. :) The second half of 2019 I'll be starting high school and I don't know what classes I'm taking yet.
DeleteLooks like 2018 was a great year for you!! Here's to a fabulous 2019 :)
ReplyDeleteI think it was. Happy new years Rosie and I hope you have an amazing 2019 as welllllllll. :)
