Hiya c:

This month has turned out really busy for me (somehow) and it's already drawing to the end of August. It's unfortunate that I haven't been able to fully take you guys with me during my 24 days of hanging out with friends, working, and fulfilling various other obligations, but hopefully this post will ease my negligence.

I've been friends with a certain group of people for about two years now, and while most of us are scattered in the lower mainland, two of us are actually quite far away. Most of our interaction and connection are through games and Skype, but for the first time we were able to assemble most of the group. The two who don't live in the lower mainland came to visit us in the middle of August and we were able to have a really packed but amazing week together. That was a big highlight of my month, and I'll be sure to treasure the time I spent with them.

Since the latter half of July I've been working at a sushi restaurant (a good hour and a half commute from my place) and it's nice to have a nice steady flow of money going into my wallet again. I'm really thankful that I was given another opportunity to pick up some hours of work and I definitely won't squander it. The sushi is also a plus.

Next week I'm headed to the optometrist (maybe I'll have to get glasses with the way my eyes are failing on me) and I also have to start thinking about the upcoming school year. It'll definitely be a big one for me and those in my grade, and I hope that I'll play an integral role in making this year a memorable one worthy of leaving a legacy behind.

Anyhow, that's all for this small update. My fingers have started hurting again so I will go brush and turn in for tonight. Hopefully next post won't be too far from now, and you'll hear from me soon.
