School

Started school this week.  Yesterday actually.  This was the beginning of my final year of the MYP (Middle Years Program).  After today, I've met almost all my teachers.  I change electives second semester (from art to drama) and I have yet to meet that teacher.  The teahcers I have met are great.  I have a couple of sarcastic teachers, which I love.  It keeps the class interesting.  I already knew five out of my seven teachers.  One of them was my homeroom teacher last year.  Another was the sponser of a club I was apart of.  Two of my teachers I had last year.  My gym teacher taught our gym class half the time last year in a sort of joined class. 

It is kind of strange going to the different classes.  I like my schedule from last year and I keep feeling like I should be going to those classes.  I keep thinking I'm going to the wrong place when I attend my new classes, but I'll eventually adjust (I hope!!).

Carter Mountain

We all went to Carter Mountain yesterday.  We were mainly hoping for peaches, but we figured that we could see which apples were ripe. 

We usually don't go so early in the season.  We like to go in October when the Fuji apples are ripe.  Fuji apples are my favorite and they taste REALLY good as applesauce.  Last year we went to the mountain twice and each time we brought home three and four bags full of apples.

Soon after we got there, we heard the the peach crop wasn't promising, so we ended up purchasing peaches at the market instead of actually picking them.  We did, however, pick a few Gala apples.  We managed to find about five good ones.  All of the apples we picked look fantastic on the bottom, but the tops and insides were all rotted in. 

Best part of this trip were the apple cider donuts.  They are heavenly.  We bought half a dozen.  They're almost gone now.

I am so looking forward to the next trip up the mountain in October!!

Just For Fun

I've created this blog just for fun.  I want to post anything and everything here.  My posts will include art projects, school life, fashion, day trips, interesting facts and so much more.  This is not my first blog, but I want to remain more faithful to this blog than the past one.
I often blog hop for inspiration and different ideas.  Now that I have my own blog, I hope to be one that is sought after by others for inspiration and ideas.
