Life update: Where have you been?

Hey everyone! It has been a looong time since my last post, and I am sorry about that! I wanted to take a little time and just explain what exactly has been going on and what the plans are for the future.

To start off, the past year has been a crazy one full of moving and transferring and more transferring and tons of classes and it's just been nuts. I hate using the term, because I feel like it's too often said that "life is crazy right now," but the past year has been the craziest my life has ever been. I thought I knew what busy was, but I was WRONG. I thought I could handle 18 credit hours of pure, full-on math and science classes, but I was sort of wrong. I mean, I did survive the semester, but just barely. The past week has been me trying to rest while also running all over the state to do things with friends and family before I leave for an internship. Maybe I'll have actual time to rest when I'm at the internship? Or maybe I can rest when I retire in forty something years. Who knows?

So, in short, no blogging was done because there was no time to blog. Besides that, I had no money to buy things to blog about, so there's that. BUT, as mentioned in the previous paragraph, I do have an internship coming up, and it is paid, so maybe I'll have some time and money to blog during the summer. I'm hoping so, because I miss it.

Oh, and in case you were wondering, I quit the no-poo thing a few months ago. I gave it a good month's try, but my hair was not getting any better, and I kept reading things that made me think using baking soda is actually not such a good way to clean your hair. Apparently the skin's natural pH leans more towards acidic and baking soda is basic, so it can lead to some bad results. The past semester involved two chemistry courses and both dealt in-depth with pH, so I know that it's nothing to mess with.

Now that we're pretty much caught up, I thought it would be good to lay some plans for the future. I did change the blog's name, and I'm ashamed to say that I will be changing it again. I'm not particularly fond of this name, and it definitely needs changing. I feel so flightly and unable to choose anything, since this will be the second name change, and I've changed my major twice as well. Can I not decide on ANYTHING? Why yes, I can actually. I think I'm getting close to a name and major that I like, so I really feel like the next year will bring some stability to my life. Along with the blog's name change, the layout will change. I don't know how long it will take, but hopefully it will be done by the end of the summer.

I hope to start posting again this week, and I appreciate anyone that has stuck around through the past years. I hope your lives are not nearly as stressful as mine, and I hope you're looking forward to the summer as much as I am!
