Hey everyone! I hope you all had a fantastic holiday season and that your new year had a great start! I know mine did.

To start off, I’m sorry I’ve been scarce. Last year was a whirlwind of changes, adventure and heartache, which made life difficult, let alone writing! With everything that happened I decided to take a break from a lot of my hobbies and try to spend as much time as I could dealing with everything, one of which was college! I am now attending my first semester at the Brigham Young University of Idaho, and there was still a lot of things I had to do (and still have to do!) I’m staying in a dorm with some friends, and today is my second day of classes, so I’m trying to get used to all of this as well as keep my part-time job AND writing, but I think it’s all coming together.

In case anyone was interested, I’m working towards a Recreational Therapy degree right now, and then when I have the means I will work on my Music Therapy degree, which means a lot of schooling but I think this is the best option for me right now. I’m really excited for my classes, one of which is an English class which will help my writing immensely! I’m looking forward to all of the things I’m going to learn this year 🙂

Another thing I’m working on right now is a Fan-fiction that my friends convinced me to write. If you haven’t played the Dragon Age video game series yet I highly suggest you check them out, it’s a fantastic game! Anyway, one night I couldn’t sleep so I chatted with my other insomniac friends and we got onto the topic of Pokemon. Can you see where this is going yet? Well, I don’t remember who said it first, but we worked out a lot of Pokemon that would fit the personalities and characteristics of the characters from Dragon Age, and it finally ended with ‘You gotta write this!’ So, I did. It’s a work in progress right now and I’m having so much fun with it! I’ve been having to do a lot of research on the characters to make sure I got the personalities just right, and then figure out how these characters would fit in a Pokemon world. If any of you are interested, here’s the link to the first (and only so far) Chapter

Anyway, that’s about all I have so far. One of my new years resolutions is to work more on staying on top of things like my blog and YouTube channel, which both have suffered from being placed on the back burner for months. Going to college will help teach me how to keep a better time schedule, which will not only help me keep good grades, but also learn how to manage my life better.

So I hope you all have a fantastic year full of learning experiences, happiness and success! Thanks for reading!
