Hi there. I haven't posted anything in so long, but I'm just sitting here in school with thirty-five minutes to spare, so I thought, "Why not update my blog?" I don't have much time, so I'll just give you a brief update of what's going on. I am a senior, I have senioritis, I just got accepted to the University of Northern Colorado to major in Technical Theatre and Design, although I am considering going back to England to attend Capernwray Hall, a bible school, I am still searching for my first job because I am broke, I desperately want to go to Disneyland, and Star Wars: The Force Awakens comes out in two days. Crazy, right?!? High school has unfortunately desensitized me more and more over the years, so I am able to remain calm and act bored about all this. But really, this is crazy! Life is actually moving along for me! I'm tired and a bit sad about some things, like how ISIS and other terrorists continue to attack the rest of the world and how we can't afford very much this Christmas, but it's okay. Life is still stunningly beautiful.
As a senior, I am getting more freedom along with more responsibilities. It's scary, yes, but also super exciting. I get to be a grown-up! Being a grown-up can be fun.
I do believe I have senioritis, but somehow I'm getting all A's, and probably at least a 4.0 GPA... must be a Bauer family guardian angel... they sure do love us!
UNC is an easy school to get into, so I wouldn't say my getting accepted is worth much celebration, but still, yay! UNC is only one option, though. I've been wanting to go to Capernwray eventually, but my parents brought it up as a solid possibility a couple months ago, so I will be applying over Christmas break. I'm definitely not to the point of making a final decision, but we'll make up our minds sometime in the upcoming months.
Getting a job is hard-- for me, anyway. I've been applying to multiple places. It's calling them and talking to them and going in for job interviews that's the scary part. Like, really scary. The latest place I applied to was King Soopers, so now I just have to call them (repeatedly) and hope they hire me. PLEASE HIRE ME!!!
I still really want to go to Disneyland for a senior trip, and I have for pretty much all of high school. I'm gradually saving up money for Mom and I to go, if not all five of us. I hope I can make enough money, because this time I want to do what I say I want to do; I don't want it to just be a dream or something I want to do "someday". I've gotta make this happen.
Star Wars. STAR WARS. THERE IS ANOTHER STAR WARS COMING OUT IN TWO DAYS. I can't believe this. I will be a living witness of Star Wars history. I AM SO EXCITED.
So, that's pretty much it for now... I don't know the next time I'll write a post but I thought it would be nice to write an update, especially since lots of cool things are happening right now. I'll try to write about more things in more detail later, like over break... that is, if I manage my time well...
