I'm so sorry, Ronan! Actually, I've been having a no-structure week because I've had a REALLY bad cold all week. I even had something like a mild flu on Tuesday! I feel awful right now.

I guess that's it for now. I hope you feel better soon.

Ronan:

I think I know what you mean about the no-structure week! In the summertime I can't stand not having a schedule so I make one for myself every day. I just list everything I intend to do and approximately when for that day. Otherwise I would live ina nebulous state in which I never got anything done! But it's nice to be free of a schedule for a little while. I think you'll find there are bright sides.

Anyway, about what's going on in my life! Well, I'm writing and drawing more often than I have before. I find it difficult to finish my writing, though. For some reason I have a greater stigma with writing than I do drawing or other art. I have this idea that everything I write has to be good, and that makes it difficult to finish.

I've been randomly fascinated by trees lately. I am possessed by the desire to read in a tree, like many people in the Letterbox recommend. It sounds terribly romantic (in the from-a-novel way, not in the I-love-you way). If only I could find a good, wide pair of branches to sit in.

That's all I can think of for now. Best wishes!

Awww...Ronan, I feel so bad for you! Everything will get better, I promise. When Im feeling down, I listen to music at full blast, read, or colour in. Maybe this helps!

Here's what I did today: I woke up at like 7:15 to "Dear Theodosia" (from Hamilton) and then pressed snooze and then slept and pressed snooze again and finally dragged myself out of bed. I ate breakfast in my pj's and started on a ton of work for AP government :( . I did some other stuff and then ate cashews. Then we saw the matinee showing of "Hidden Figures" at the theater. It was really good!!! Then we went to a frozen yogurt place and saw for some reason a lot of people that I know. Then I came home and finished the rest of my homework and decided to go on the CB. And tonight some Russian people are coming over to my house for some reason. (?? :P) So we have to be all ready for that... This was me a few days ago:

Me: Mom, there's thing on Friday night that I want to go t-

Mom: NO! Russian people are coming for dinner!!!

Me: I'm sorry, what? 

Kind of funny, I think. :P

Ronan, I really hope you feel better! Do something you love- drawing, doodling, listening to music, reading, etc. That might help. 

PS I'm a homeschooler (which is why I didn't go to school today). However, we RARELY go to the movies and yogurt place in the middle of day, just so you know. Mostly my Fridays consist of me in my pajamas on the couch, doing homework. My days don't have too much of a structure to them either and haven't for a while. You just have to commit yourself to do something, and do it.

This is the exact same situation that someone I know is in... creepy... 

We're all here for you.

So how are you doing? 

Awa, <3 <3 I'm here for ya! I have to go, so I'll come back later. You can join Spirit Animals on Inkwell, that RP has been here for awhile and is still running. We'll try and incorperate you more into Kyndom, I myself is pretty lost and I'm now just weighting for Sylvia to be activated untill I become more involved. I also think I've becom Dislexic, so reading all that can get...difficult. 

Hey, it's okay, we've all been through that kind of time. Just take a deep breath, look up some memes to make you smile, listen to Hamilton, do some art, whatever makes you happy.

But as you request, I'm doing good. Staying busy with co-running the Variety Show with my closest friends, FBLA State in April, deadlines here and there, art, music, what else? Ahh, you have no idea how I feel right now. But nothing like you do... I like being busy.

So, tell me, what good things have you done/experienced recently, Ronan? 

Oohh, and here's a Hamilton meme I made! Admins, it's made by me although the pic isn't mine, it's from Spongebob. Ronan, if it shows up, this is how I feel sometimes. If you are a Hamfan you'll understand! Regardless (if it shows up) I hope it makes you smile. 

I'm not sure we're allowed to show Sponge Bob characters. Sorry.

Hi Ronan :)

Well, I'm still in school (I'm not quitting anytime soon) so I still have homework and projects and recess yada yada yada. Recently my science class had to do a presentation on Pompeii and the erruption of Vesuvius since we're currently learning about volcanoes. All the other groups did baking soda volcanoes, which aren't even completely accurate because the erruption was completely pumice and ash! But my group created a choose-your-own-adventure story for the entire class to participate in, and then we chucked paper pumice at them. 

Hey, Ronan, hope you feel better! I get what you mean about not being able to keep up with things- my life is crazy right now, I've got volleyball every day but Sunday and sadly have not been able to get on Cricket as much as I'd like. Yesterday was my sister's birthday, so my family went out to eat. It was fun, and I got to eat ice cream, yay! It was also super warm where I live today (66 degrees, in February, in Illinois? Crazy) At school my class is reading Romeo and Juliet. I have never been more confused in my life. Um... what else is going on... I've developed a minor addiction to this show about Queen Victoria, called (wait for it) Victoria. It's so good!

Here's something Harry Potter related: I bought this 750 piece, 3D puzzle of the Hogwarts Astronomy tower on a whim, it's been really fun so far to put it together. I might post a picture eventually if I ever finish it.

Good luck, I hope you feel better soon. We're here for you :) 

When I feel like that, it helps for me to remember Harry Potter book 5. I then spend a very cheerful hour fantasizing about locking Umbridge in a box full of blast ended screwts. I always feel better afterwards.
