So proud of myself!

After a very challenging school year, I finished out my third semester at college with a 3.58 gpa and an overall gpa of 3.5. I had to deal with a lot this school year, and I’m sure we all can agree that COVID-19 completely upended our educational norms.

Now, on to junior year! Half way done college... wow.

Life update:

Well I’m back in school (yay🎉)

And I’m doing well, or I feel like I’m doing well. I am taking 4 classes, French 1010 (beginners), Introduction to African American Studies, Inteoduction To Archaeology And Introduction to Global Studies: Globalization.

All are intense, all are entertaining and for once I’m glad to be studying. It feels good.

Halloween is upon us, which means my Wicca-versary is coming up. I want to start planning something, I have not found any sort of celebrations for the Wiccan Birthday.

I feel it’s similar to other religions that don’t specifically adhere to the Gregorian calendar, there are others that work on two calendars, like the Jewish/ Hebrew calendar.

I have been denied all free counseling services, meaning I will either need to find a way to self counsel, or find a way to pay for it. ( roughly $100-$300 a month)

I’m now 22 & have transitioned into a new relationship with someone who cares for me immensely!

I hope to update my page with stuff from Mabon & Samhain rituals and activities, as well as personal wellness.

I’m so grateful to be a blogger with 1050 followers & I hope that I can release more content that is valuable to you all.

Global Studies explores the interconnectedness of the contemporary world, helping students understand how everyday experiences contribute to worldwide connections. Students take classes across disciplines, which include Contemporary African Politics, Internet and Society, and Popular Culture, Art, and Autocracy. They also participate in an activity or program related to a global issue of their choice, such as an internship, study abroad program, volunteer position, or research project.

24th October is World Development Information Day and was established by The General Assembly in 1972.  This day is dedicated to global connection regarding development issues, in hopes of strengthening international cooperation to solve them.   The Assembly decided this day should coincide with United Nations Day.
