Again, forgive the formatting! I can't change it on an iPad but I don't think it's that big of a deal.
Anyway, I started a new school today! I'm not a freshman, I'm a junior! But, it was my first time in public school and, let me just say, it was seriously overwhelming. Switching from a grade of 90 to a grade of 736, let alone a school of over 2,000+ is insane! So I thought I would kinda recap my day and also tell y'all about what I wore and whathaveyou.
Alright, so my classes are fantastic! my favorite classes have always been English and History and I'm really lucky that the courses are AMAZING this year! In English, we're reading a bunch of amazing novels (which I'll review at a later date) and the course itself is just fantastic. In History, we're doing American History, which I did in 7th grade and LOVED! Also, there's this thing called the "Junior Thesis". The junior thesis is a project that starts in November and goes until March, and it's a giant paper. The paper is 10-12 pages/2500-3500 words on a topic of your choice. I think I may do Fashion throughout American History but we'll see!
I'm also taking Italian which should be really interesting. I speak a bit of hebrew (jew pride whatsup) and I took Spanish in 6th grade (didn't end well...), so taking on a whole new language as a junior should be something else entirely. But, I'm up for the challenge.
Then there's math and bio. I have no idea how these two classes are going to go, as math and science are have always been my two weakest classes, but we'll see. I'll try my best and that's all I can do!
Now for what I wore! I wore an H&M white blouse, American Apparel "Disco Pants" and my well loved topshop oxfords. I'll be putting a Youtube video up on my channel on Friday, showing you guys the outfits I wore for my first week! I'm also going to do a "What's n my Schoolbag?" video coming up soon!
Alright, to finish it off, I'm going to write down my goals for the year. I like making weekly goals (to-do's), monthly goals, and yearly goals. I'll make a separate post on Monthly goals, but let's do yearly goals!
- Make some friends (puhlease)
- At least audition for the Musical
- Let my confidence in myself/inner confidence turn into confidence in how i look/outer confidence.
- Try my hardest in all of my classes and ask for help when I need it.
- Fight bad temptations.
- Be myself
And, to sign it off, I'm going to remind myself (and YOU!) to:
Destroy what destroys you.
In a comment below, tell me about your first day back to school! I'd love to hear! What'd you wear?
xxx,
Ashley
