writing for fun | little letters



i miss writing for fun.

i took an english ap exam this morning and wrote 3 essays.

that was not writing for fun.

if this was not writing for fun i would have already lost about 20 points for incorrect capitalization and simple sentences.

i have no plan for this post, that's part of writing for fun right?

there are LESS THAN 10 DAYS OF SCHOOL LEFT.

can i get a rah, rah, rah?

in honor of these very, very few days of school left (that will probably feel like approximately 9 years if we are being honest) and the fact that i will not be writing an essay until the fall, i've decided to write some little letters. i wrote some a loooong time ago and got the original idea from Love Taza  (cutest blog btw)

dear summer,
COME
not so patiently,
shelby

dear ap exams, ap & dual credit classes, and ________,
peace out! i feel like i actually learned a lot but i am 100% okay to be done. thanks for all you've done but goodbye forever. (more like goodbye for the summer- for some reason i always come back to you)
yours truly,
shelby

dear gas,
please, please lower your price. your girl needs money.
crying everytime my fuel light comes on,
shelby

dear awkward tan line i got from wearing shorts,
i'm really excited about the tan side of you, but can we work on the pale side? you're really cramping my style & i don't want to blind anyone.
#modesty probs,
shelby

dear physics grade,
please round up, please round up, please round up. extra credit? that is all.
slightly stressed,
shelby

dear job,
only 7 days left together. what a ride. very mixed feelings about leaving you, but considering the day i had at work i'm feeling prettttyyy solid right now.
bittersweetly,
shelby

5:30 am,
just stop.
tiredly,
shelby

dear yearbook,
guess who's your editor next year?!?!? we'r'e gonna have fun.
excitedly nervous,
shelby

dear last 9 days of school,
LETS DO THIS. fingers crossed you're filled with lots of movies, card games, and a ton of easy points to raise my physics grade. it's the final countdown!
xoxo
shelby

(if you didn't sing that last line in your head, who are you?)

dear self,
it's almost 10 and you still have things to do so get on with it
truthfully,
shelby

welp. that was fun. no empty promises about posting more. but i do like rereading old posts and writing for fun is pretty...well fun.

until next time.

(update: i wrote this a few days ago, now there is only ONE day of school left and my job is over- happy tears all around)
