Heyo everyone! Today I’m combining what would normally be two posts, as I’m wrapping up January and looking forward to February. January has been a long, exciting, and also really weird month for me, so I’m hoping February will be really fun (and not near as weird)! January 2024 Wrap-UpLife Events: January was by far one of the busiest months I’ve had in a long time (I was going to say so far, but I think it might be a little early to start handing out trophies XD). The first and second week of January were especially busy as we were traveling through Tennesse, Alabama, and even Georgia on a family vacation with my dad’s side of the family. We explored Mammoth Caves, Rock City and Ruby Falls, Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge (which is home to thousands of sandhill cranes and a few whooping cranes if you look closely enough), and downtown Nashville. The last half of that week was spent with our mom’s family as her parents celebrated their fifthieth wedding anniversary. It was a lot of fun (even with negative degree wind chills and lots of snow), and there was plenty of cake to go around. We spent the last half of January recovering from head colds that decided to stick around for a week and a half. My dad, my siblings, and I all started back to school, and my mom went back to work. And now life has gone back to normal. At least, for now. School: I started an internship with a local literacy organization as a social media intern. It’s not a very hard job and I’m having a lot of fun creating graphics and writing copy text for social media posts. I’m also taking two history courses, one on US history and one on modern history (or history after 1945). In the English department, I’m working on a fiction writing course and a web design/online writing class. Right now in Web Design we’re learning about digital literacy and in fiction writing we’re talking about showing vs telling in fiction. Other Stats for January Books read: 13 total. Two of them are comic books and three of them are Hourly History books, but the others are either full-length novellas or novels. Words written: Counting an article I wrote for my local birder’s society and my story…around 1500. And most of those were for the article. :P February 2024 Goals
That’s all for now. Let me know how your month is going! Did you get all your January goals filled?
Until next week! ~Cate
