start of something new

At the strike of midnight I was enjoying whatever was left of some coquito my stepdad made while my friends and I said loving things to each other in our group chat.  By the time school started, I had cut my hair up to my chin and dyed it jet black.  It...was..ehrm... not my best choice.  It was too short for my liking and I missed having red/burgundy/pink/purple hair.  The first month of January went by extremely slow, and I was extremely done with school already. 

            When February started, I noticed I had a weird lump under my jaw. I was in and out of the hospital for two weeks because my lymph nodes got infected.  Getting hospitalized for the first time in over five years, twice, made my hand feel like it was going to drop off.  I also had my first CT Scan, let’s it was actually interesting.  I also learned more and more about the value of life, but I’ll write about that some other time.

            On to the fact that as this post is being written, February just ended. It went by so fast and despite the hospital in-and-out’s it was such a fun month.  I guess I should share just how fun it's been. Thank you for being so kind to me, February

This one was taken at my friend Mary's get. The room was clearly very bright.

 Almost at the end of the night I quickly snapped this.  Candids remind me more of how I spent the night.

 One night I did my own version of Girl with a Pearl Earring (Johannes Vermeer). I am still learning to do faces, so I stuck to my usual faceless portraits.  I actually like it a lot

 My friends and I went on a little date at the mall. This was taken at Pizza Hut by Mary, Ginty is next to me.

 Believe it or not I tried Firehouse Subs for the first time around February 25th. I went back less than a week later. It is my new home I am getting them to cater my wedding and my funeral.

 At Keyla's surprise birthday party, there were strings of pictures of all our friends with her.

 I ruined my new shoes.  Add them to the list of shoes I have to clean.

 My best friend Wil. I love the colors in this.

            Last but not least a picture with the birthday girl.

            I have three tests this week and it will be the death of me.  I also started playing DanganRonpa so I get easily distracted when trying to study or even sleep.  I also started 6 new anime, and currently have 16 on my ‘watching’ list.  I also have things to read and movies to watch. So many things to do, let’s hope I find the time soon.

February, thank you for being so good to me. March, try to keep up. Please.

Sincerely yours,

Violet

catch of the day

My life is as uneventful as always.  Well, not really. A lot has happened. A lot.
 Let's start off with one of my best friend's surprise Quince.

I like how it shows the phone we're all really looking at, it reminds me of how many pictures are taken at parties like these.

Aside from that day, we later stayed a weekend at a hotel in San Juan. That weekend was pure chaos in all the best ways imaginable.

 We took a walk on the beach, despite my hatred for beaches; this was one of my highlights of that weekend. 

Back at the hotel, while taking a break.

       Aside from those fun picture perfect days, or at least the ones I could even manage to take a picture, the rest is just a blur. Afterwards my friends and I went to a 70's-themed Quince, which was incredibly fun!
       These past few days have been made up by studying for Hell Week, binging anime to shorten M.A.L., making weeb friends on Tumblr and actually having fun for an hour or two at school.
You heard me, school wasn't entirely boring. I feel this year won't actually be so bad (except the fact it's going by so slow). I'm not saying I'll miss it, but I will surely love to remember the little details.

Sincerely yours,
Violet

bolt from the blue

If you've read my previous posts, you'd know I've had problems with my knee these past few days. If you haven't read my previous posts, now you know. After my knees healed I still couldn't manage to put pants on and I hated the idea of going out with my knees looking so weird. I didn't have plans for the rest of the week so I just binge-watched anime and made mac n cheese at midnight. On Saturday though, one of my best friends was having a surprise birthday party thrown for her. There aren't many pictures from that night, but it sure was fun.

I gave the birthday girl a piggyback ride since she was wearing heels.
