Haven't blogged in a while because...
I was super busy! Yay!

Basically, last weekend was pretty amazing. The summit was great... and I think I already posted about that...

So this past week, it was like midterms week for me. Two part tests in all of my AP courses, which by the way all fell on the same days. It was hell, especially since I didn't get to study the previous weekend! Hopefully, I didn't bomb, but we'll see.

Of course, because I was up studying late all nights, my immune system kind of... wonked out on me on Friday... evening! Perfect timing if anything for me to get sick. I spent all of Saturday running around Crafts Fair and attending whatever I previously committed to. But when I got home I basically (ate pho and then) wonked out and slept 11pm-11:30am. Yay!

Now, I'm feeling almost normal. My ears unplugged, and I'm not blowing my nose every other minute! I actually kind of great. The funny part is that my sinuses cleared up shortly after I read Dimmesdale's death in Scarlet Letter. Hehehe.

I just finished that book by the way. Brilliant! Love it! Would not read it all over again though. Great academic book though. I think there's a lot to write about. ;) I can feel it trembling under the surface like oil. Got my drill ready to go! Essay is due in 2 weeks.

Post-Summit Depression

Amazing week 2 group. Keep on dreaming!

I feel so heartbroken and empty right now. Spending so many hours locked up in that room with all those amazing people makes every day life feel quite lonely and plain. I'm really going to miss everyone, but I'm glad that we'll still talk online.

And the actual summit? Educational, amazing, inspiring! Really, I've gained a whole new outlook on leadership. I wish I had all those ppts they showed us, because I'm sure that I'd need them in the future. Lifelong skills++.

To Project Ice, we rocked it!

To all the Trailblazers, love you!

To the Google team, thank you so much for the experience, and I look forward to working with you guys again in the future!

So because I was taking a break from annotating, I tried on makeup today...

me: Albert, do you notice anything different? ~gets nearer to his face
Albert: Your pimples?
me: ~crying inside~ Anything else?
Albert: Your eyelashes?
me: Yay! Does it look better?
Albert: NO. ~runs away laughing like an eflish imp

/Sigh. I'm sticking with not trying. x]
