February

There are a lot of words to describe this month. Here are just a few:

Amazing. Wonderful. Lucky. Perfect.

You can tell just by those words how this month went for me.

This month was Amazing because I turned 18. Finally. I got my first tattoo on my eighteenth birthday and I can now legally drive people after only having my license for six months.

This month was Wonderful because I actually had a very good Valentines Day for the first time in years. I did not curl up on my bed watching a chick flick with a carton of Ben&Jerry's. I was productive and went to practice. Stabbing people with blades is much more fun than chick flicks.

This month was Lucky because I was asked by my favorite teacher ever to illustrate a cover. To his novel. Which he is sending out to publishers very soon!

Finally, this month was overall Perfect because I got into the school of my dreams. The only school I applied to. I got in. Not only did I get in to Chester College, I got a $3,500 scholarship from the school for having a "strong application" and when the financial aid came in, the entire price of the tuition and room/board was cut down by almost $9,000!

Well, that's all I have to say right now. I'm a bit bruised and hurt at the moment; fencing has started to take it's toll on my legs... and I have State Championships tomorrow morning. Fingers crossed that my team qualifies for Team States!

  1. Favorite teacher? And by sending it to publishers, do you mean he is querying or has an agent?
