The Peachy Magnolia

Yes, I know that it's not the new year yet, but I didn't know if I would be posting on New years day so I'm going to go ahead and tell you. :) I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas! I know I did! I got a lot of goodies from Santa. ;) I'm, also, very happy to say that I'm working on my first children's book! In the past, I've mostly wrote for tweens and teens. I never ended up finishing them though. A children's book would be shorter and easier to write so this time I'm hoping to actually get it published! I'll keep y'all updated on that! :) Oh, and I'm very very happy to say that I've been eating a lot healthier the past couple of days. Well, I sort of didn't today, but I could tell a major difference when I ate healthy food vs when I ate junk food. I had way more energy and I was less bloated, but today I just feel crappy. So, I'll definitely be eating a lot more healthy food from now on! It seems like the next c...

So...I passed all of my exams and I'm now out for winter break! I have one more semester and then I'll be a high school graduate! I can already tell that 2017 is going to be an awesome year for me (*knocks on wood*). Although, I'm a little nervous about going to college and not only will I be attending college, but I'll also be looking for my first job! It's definitely going to be a year of firsts for me! I've looked at some college websites and looked for job openings and I saw a few that spiked my interest, but none of them seemed right for me so I'm going to continue to look and pray that God leads me down the right path. Anyway, enough with the college talk! It's Christmas Eve, y'all! Wow, this month has flown by! Come to think of it...this year has flown by! I can't believe it's already Christmas time! Now, let's get into the Christmas spirit, shall we? I've got my Christmas outfit on, my Santa hat on, and I've had my morni...

     So many great things have happened including finally figuring out what I want to go to school for! I've decided that I would like to go and get my bachelor's degree in early childhood education and I'm going to become an elementary school teacher! I'm really exited about this and I feel like I've finally got things figured out! I'm hoping to teach 3rd, 4th, or 5th grade language arts since that is my favorite subject and I don't want to teach really little kids, but I guess I'll take whatever job I can get. I, also, wouldn't have to teach all of the subjects since upper elementary schools tend to switch between teachers and they each have different subjects to teach like one teaches science and math while the other teaches language arts and social studies. I'm so excited to start this journey!              That's not all, though! I have more great news! My blog has reached the milestone of over 1,000 views! I know tha...

I'm sorry I haven't posted in almost a month! I really couldn't stand when bloggers wouldn't for months, but now that I am one, I've finally realized how much of a hypocrite I've been! It really is difficult to keep up with the whole blogging thing especially when nothing too exciting is happening. Anyway, let's get back to the basics! So many things to catch up on since the last time I posted so let's get started! We've had birthday parties, Thanksgiving, and now we're getting ready for Christmas (my 2nd favorite holiday!). I absolutely LOVE this time of year! The music, the decorations, and especially the movies!  It's safe to say that I'm ready for Christmas, lol! We had my sister's and nephew's birthday party on 11/20. They were born exactly 2 years and 2 days apart so it only makes sense to let them have a party together, right? It was a lot of fun and we had A LOT of cake which doesn't sound so bad, but trust me, i...
