First day back at school!

-

Hello there! Today was my first day back at school after winter break, and I am happy to say that I am going to school this Thursday and Friday😁. Luckily, my first day back at school, I didn't have much work to do which is really relieving. That gave me time to read, play on the trampoline with my brother, and play among us with friends! One of my new year's resolutions has been to get better at planning my weeks. Thus, I got a planner a couple of days ago! So far, so good! I have been planning pretty much every week and day as well as crossing of the days that have passed by at night. Unlike bullet journaling, all you have to do his fill out the planner and you have your week planned! I have nothing against bullet journaling, it just took a lot of time and effort to create a planner for just one week😟. Here is a picture of it below: 

As you can see, it's pretty much a small binder but the cover and back is soft and squishy. Maybe I'll show you a page of my planning some time! I played some video games with my dad this afternoon and he beat me by just a little bit! Tonight, me and my brother played among us outside with our friends. It's usually pretty chilly so we have to dress warmly and bring a blanket! We watched a TV show while we ate some dinner and had some cheesecake for dessert! I know in the last post, I mentioned that I would mention pictures of a couple of my Christmas presents so this is the part where I do just that! My kindle is so much bigger than my old one! It's practically the size of an iPad and I love the case that I got with it too! Here is a picture of it:
I also got a new bed for Christmas! It is a full bed, and I really like the bedspread! We were thinking that we would have to repaint my room because of the colors included on the bedspread but it turns out, the brown in my room-which was our only concern- matches perfectly with the dark grey on the comforter! Here, see for yourself:
(I just realized you can't really see the brown because of my curtains😂.) How are you dealing with going back to work or school? Let me know in the comments! Well, that's a wrap for this post! I hope everyone is having a good start to their week! Oh, and one more thing...stay positive!

    Hmmm...how am I dealing with going back to work? While I would rather be reading Keeper of the Lost Cities...it's not too bad. ;). I'm so glad you get to go back to school too!

    I am VERY thankful that I am not teaching in these difficult times. I try to keep busy as there's always a chore to do around here. The tough part is getting motivated to do it. I'm glad you get some interaction with other students.I have watched a bunch of Christmas movies this year. All the Hallmark & Lifetime & UP movies I recorded are done. Now, I'm working on Amazon Movies - ha! Your planner, Kindle, & bed are great gifts and just right for you. Keep having fun!

    What a COOOOOL case for your new Kindle! I'm writing this on the 8th, so I'm looking forward to reading your January 7 post about how your first day back at in-person school was.
    Love,

Chapter 9

Chapter 9 I want to scream. I collapse down to my knees, sobbing silently. Through tears, I see Will coming down to see what’s wrong. “Whoa! What’s wrong? Figsons aren’t that violent, are they?” Will asks. I can’t believe it, Rayonetta went with us on our trip, Rayonetta fought the element dragon, Lamia. She did all that...just to get me over to their side, just have an advantage against the other tribes. Will wiped the tears from my face. We look into each other's eyes. I stop sniffling for just a moment. He won’t kiss me will he? He leans into me. However, before anything happens, the figson crawls up onto my face, and licks my nose. I laugh, wiping the tears away from my face. He pulls me up to my feet. “I’m sorry, for that I didn’t mean-” Will starts. I cut him off, “It’s um ok, that figson sure is a troublemaker though.” I say, rubbing the tiny creature behind it’s ears. “Ok, well let’s get into the air, you can tell me what’s wrong then.” He smiles and I don’t see any frustra

Chapter 24

    Chapter 24: Back in Byleth’s point of view “Sometimes guys can be pretty annoying.” I hear a voice call through my door. I identify it has Rayonetta’s. Her voice is soft but also strong. “Really? Tell me about it.” I roll my eyes as I think back to Will’s assumption that I would be fine with someone new joining the group. Rayonetta walks in, her hair is back into a braid and she still has her dress on. She sits down on the bed I lay down on. “How’d you know what was going on?” I sit up, raking my hands through my hair. “I was sitting at a nearby table. You don’t know the power of eavesdropping.” Rayonetta grins. I unwrap the braids from my tight bun. I come across a knot. “Here, let me help.” Rayonetta says. I nod and she sits behind, me combing my hair until it looks like I never even wore it in a bun. “Thanks.” I mumble. “Yeah no problem, my mom was never talented in doing hair so I had to learn how to do it on my own. It took practice but I eventually learned how to do it.” Rayo

Ask a Character

-
 I'm taking a little break from writing chapters to host a little event called "Ask a Character"! Here, you can comment any questions you want to ask any character from my story! For example, let's say I wanted to know whether Byleth likes to fight or not. I would simply 'ask' in the comment section and I'll edit this post every so often to answer the questions people may have. This post will always be open so if you have questions for the characters twenty chapters from now, you can still ask them! So what are you waiting for...ask away!  Alright, to answer your question Hailey, I was just about to have Byleth be sad about that in the next chapter. I was kind of thinking about how she left her family and was like 'whoopy-de-do I'm not sad at all' you know?  You can ask any questions you have about the story. Except of course for anything that might happen in the future because I don't want to spoil my own book for you😊. Yes, Rayonetta is
