July!

Hello Concord family!

I can’t believe July is already coming to an end! So much have happened in this short amount of time. My schedule has been really busy and time is not slowing any time soon. My brother got married recently and I got a job! It really took me a long time to find a job for the past few months, but sadly I will only be working until its time to go back to school in August. From that being said, I started a summer math program that will help me to not retake a class of mine that I didn’t earn credits in which I found really nice. Not that it will only help me for getting credits, but it will help me to improve on my math. What’s really nice about this program is that there are also no time limit or what so ever, but there is a deadline to when I have to finish on completing the assignments. So far it has been going well with little complications.

Just one more month and I’ll be a Sophomore in college! At the same time I am really excited, but also nervous. With the pandemic still around, it does make me question a lot of things and having concerns. I’m hoping the classes I registered for fall semester will go smoothly. I registered classes that were online and in person which are hybrid classes. I wonder how that will go this year and up coming year. Since my sister has graduated this year, I get to have a room to myself which I’m looking forward to because I have never got a room to myself in my entire life. Even with the pandemic, I will continue to explore of being a college student and have that experience still. Looking forward for Fall semester. 2020 and 2021!

With the time I have spent at home, I wrote a few poems and would love to share them. Poetry has been an escape for me from reality and cope with my feelings. I hope to become a great poetry writer and soon to put together a book.

With July coming to and end I hope that everyone spends it well and is continuing to stay safe and healthy. I will update you guys In August!
