My School Year Goals


Hey readers! As much as I don't want Summer to end, it does anyway and I have to accept it. Summer is one of my favorite seasons, it's a feeling of freedom and confidence.
School can feel like a letdown and a stress magnet but it is also a process of learning and journey that you have to experience to know your full potential. Today I wanted to take a moment to reflect and re-envision my view of school and make some goals for the upcoming school year. This year I'll be a junior in high school, and I hear it is the toughest.
Although I'm slightly nervous, I'm excited for the upcoming challenges that I'm going to face (or trying to convince myself of that lol). I wanted to share some of my goals with you all and hopefully, you can do the same thing and we can look back at our lists together! :)
With that said, let's take a look.

  • Confidence. Whether that is with challenges or meeting new people, I struggle with confidence being myself. I wouldn't consider myself a total introvert but I am trying to open up to more people instead of staying in my shell. I feel like I've done that for a long time but as I get older, I can feel myself becoming more confident around people. So this school year I'm going to try to be even more out of my comfort zone.
  • Endurance. Again, I do have a level of endurance but I feel as if I'm weak in this area. As an athlete, it's crucial to have endurance and persistence. As you know, I play sports all year round because it's an important part of my life. I'm excited to progress in this area and I don't want to quit any more in all aspects of my life.
  • To know how to Relax. Stress is so real and I struggle with being stressed all the time during the school year. I want to focus this year on knowing how to just relax and let my mind at ease when I'm feeling the weight of the world on my shoulders.
  • Stop comparing myself. I'm pretty sure we're all guilty of comparing ourselves to other people and even comparing other people to others. I sure am. And it does nothing but make me feel awful for what I don't have and what I don't look like. I'm going to try really hard this year to stop comparing myself and just appreciate what I've been given. 

And that's about it for my goals. I'm sure you guys can come up with some good ones for yourself. I'm going to try to stick to these even though it's going to be hard, I'm going to appreciate the journey. Have an amazing day! -Faith

where did the time go?

                                            Hey readers, yep it's me. Did I disappear off this platform for almost a year? Yes, I did. About November of last year was the time I just stopped posting. November and December of 2019 were very tough months for me and I didn't have the time or energy to put effort into making a good post. January of 2020 I finally started getting my life back together. 2019 had done a number on me and felt like the worst year of my life. I had so much hope that 2020 would be my year. And for a while, it truly was, at least for the first three months. My skin was getting better, I was in great shape from basketball season, I was having fun with friends, and everything seemed to start to fit in its right place. Then COVID affected everything. March went from good to very bad in a matter of one weekend. Obviously, I have no right to complain because there were and are so many more people affected worse than I was. I never got sick, I didn't lose my

DIY Keyboard/Piano

Image
Hey guys!! It's Monday and I decided I would post how to make a small cardboard keyboard for those piano lovers out there! What really inspired me to do this was that I had a piano recital this Sunday and I thought it would be fun to do something piano themed. Anyways.. If you have any crafts or something themed that you would like me to do please write it down in the comments down below! Okay, now let's just jump into this! What your going to need:  1 piece of white cardboard, 1 piece of black cardboard, (if you don't have white and black cardboard you can paint your cardboard like I did.) 1 bottle of glue, (You can use a glue stick or glue gun if you prefer) and a pair of scissors.  Step 1: Cut your black sheet of cardboard up into seven rectangular pieces. (they should all be the same height) Step 2: Glue your cut out piece's onto your white sheet of cardboard. Place it so it looks like a piano. Then draw lines to mark each piano key.
