What's Been Going on with Me?

So, it has been quite a while since my last post here, hasn't it?  I would give some excuse like I've been busy, or my computer broke, or something like that, but really the only excuse is that I got stressed and as a result I got lazy.  The last semester of school was pretty hard for me, and I spent most of my time avoiding stress by doing things that were not productive in the slightest.  Then summer came, and I spent most of my summer working.  I barely had a social media presence this summer!  I spent most of my down time reading books (yes I read 14 books this summer, please don't judge me) and I'm just now getting used to my new life back at school.  It's my senior year and I'm making decisions and I'm living in an apartment with my friends for the very first time.  I am feeling a little more optimistic today out of all the days so far, and so I felt compelled to start posting again on this blog.

This time I won't make any promises about updating regularly because I don't want to put any more pressure on myself, but as of now I am hoping to be at least a little more active on my blog.  I actually have things to post about, now that I'm not trapped on campus in a dorm room!

So this post is kind of a life update post.  I'll let you know a little bit about what I've done this summer!

The one awesome thing about my summer job is that it gives me free entry to museums in my city.  So for a fun day out, I took my friends and my parents to the science museum and we got to go to the Disney exhibit!  There were tons of cool artifacts from the Disney archives, including Mary Poppins' bag from the movie!  I love Disney a TON so it was super exciting for me.

I got to be a princess too!

So besides that, I also ate lots of food!  A friend from school came to visit and we pigged out majorly.  Nothing like good Belgian chocolate.

Godiva chocolate is my one true love!

  And of course, I can't go a post without mentioning Asia; my parents got to go to Singapore this summer, and they brought back goodies for me!  Including this special tea:

I've never had jasmine tea before, but I am LOVING this!

They also brought back Korean skincare products they found there (my parents know me well!) but that'll be in another post another time.

I have really become obsessed with tea these days.  I drink it all the time!  For a friend's birthday a couple weeks ago we took her out for tea and I found my new favorite place in the city where I go to school.  There were so many types of tea!  I took tons of pictures of course, but here's just one.

I can't remember what the tea was called, but it was tasty.

So, school has now started.  I'm taking more credits this semester than I ever have before, so it's a little overwhelming.  But I'm going to try my best.  It doesn't hurt that I started off the year by scoring a free root beer float before class the other day!

Root beer floats are just SO delicious~

This has been quite a long post, I think, but I hope the numerous pictures make it a little less boring.  I promise that future posts will be more interesting!  There are a lot of things I want to blog about, it's just finding the time that is the difficult part.

Let me know in the comments how you spent your summer, or what your favorite tasty drink is!

Till next time,
